El Marssa

El Marssa on Witte de Withstraat holds the distinction of opening at 07:00 — the earliest of any Amsterdam coffeeshop — serving the early-morning crowd in the Amsterdam-West residential area. The interior has a North African teahouse influence with warm hospitality. The menu is budget-oriented with reliable flower and hash at some of the best early-morning prices in the city. The early opening makes El Marssa a unique resource for Dam Guide readers who need an early pickup before a train or flight. A genuinely useful niche recommendation.
