Febo in Amsterdam is a famous Dutch fast food chain, and it turned out to be a delightful surprise. My boyfriend heard about it through a YouTube video just a day before arriving in Amsterdam, and we were eager to give it a try, especially for its renowned croquettes. Febo is practically ubiquitous in Amsterdam, with locations all over the city. It's a self-service fast food joint where you can conveniently pay with your card. Now what makes it stand out, is its variety of mouthwatering snacks that are made fresh, so they are served piping hot and exceptionally tasty. We ended up trying quite a few of the snacks including the - Kaassoufflé (Pastry made from butter puff pastry filled with cheese.) - Chicken stick (kipcorn) - Beef croquette (Rundvleeskroket) - Veal croquette (kalfsvleeskroket) - Speciaaltje (Crispy pastry of Dutch beef and chicken, onions and spicy herbs.) We both would literally travel to Amsterdam just to have these snacks!! (Just a small tip, not all Febo locations may have the snacks stocked up. We found ourselves in this location where they had everything available, so I would recommend visiting this one.) It is the perfect spot if you're looking to quickly grab something delicious, affordable, and satisfying. It's a unique and efficient way to enjoy Dutch fast food, and it's no wonder that it's a favorite among locals and visitors alike. So, if you find yourself in Amsterdam and craving a quick and tasty bite, Febo is the place to be! :)

In A Nutshell: -FEBO is a fast-food chain that serves up ready-to-go Dutch croquettes. -If you are in a hurry & don't wanna spend a lot of euro, then this is a nice place to stop real quick for a bite to eat. -All of their food is hot & readily available to sell in mini compartments like a vending machine. -Just tap your chip enabled credit card, select the compartment you want to open & pull out your tasty croquette. -You can also order from the counter which allows you to order a more items. Overall, this was a fun way to grab something really fast to eat.

There is absolutely no excuse needed to grab a snack or two here! Anytime of the day or night actually. We're still in pandemic and a very friendly staff reminded me to put my mask on. Very professional and of course the kroket are legendary!

Great system. Food was fabulous. I was a little skeptical about the quality of the food or if it remains warm enough. But it wasn’t a problem at all. We tried many different fried snacks. Everything was crispy and hot, surprisingly delicious with diverse tasty flavors. I love the no cash self service system. It works so easily and fast. And picking up the one you want by yourself is pretty exciting.

Consistent with other FEBO in Amsterdam, we thought the food from the Leidsestraat branch was decent and cheap. You can pay by card (contactless either through one’s smart phone, smart watch or the physical card) which was very convenient. We’ve tried their burgers and croquettes and we’ve found them to be consistently tasty and similar to other FEBO. There’s plenty of choice here too.

Delicious instant food. This store is quite open so there was a pigeon hanging around. But the vending machine concept is wonderful and a great snack, I wish we had them in the UK. Personally, the better store is near the red light district as it has a slightly larger range of products.

Cheap, hot, fast food, nothing more to say. Easy to tap your card and grab a snack or a burger. Not really any seating from what I remember, walk and eat or eat at the few counters along the side.

It was fun to try venting machine for kroket and kroketburger. It was pretty fresh and warm. There were many young people in the late evening. It’s very convenient and cheap.

(Translated by Google) I am currently looking for partners and investors to implement this concept in France. You are not near. A wall of small boxes each containing a Burger, a croquette or a fricadelle. You insert a coin or you put down your C-B and the petty cash opens as if by magic. And what's more, it's good !!! Their croquettes are perfect. The icing on the cake, or rather croquette on the munchies, it's open 24 hours a day. Let's mobilize so that the food boxes arrive in France. (Original) Je cherche en ce moment des associés et investisseurs pour implanter ce concept en France. Vous n'êtes pas près. Un mur de petites caisses contenant chacune un Burger, une croquette ou une fricadelle. Vous insérez une pièce ou vous posez votre C-B et la petite caisse s'ouvre comme par magie. Et en plus c'est bon !!! Leurs croquettes sont parfaites. Cerise sur le gâteau, ou plutôt croquette sur la foncedalle, c'est ouvert 24/24. Mobilisons nous pour que les boîtes à nourriture arrivent en France.

Febo a classic for dutch snacks and little hungers This one is central and has all you want. Very Quick inexpensive and taste good. Thé concept if you do not know it is very easy you. You select a box with food and pay thé according price to unlock it and take it. Warm and comforting food

(Translated by Google) Jesus what a blast of a tent! For the insatiable hunger, with extra sauce (Original) Jezus wat een knaller van een tent! Voor de onstilbare honger, met extra saus

(Translated by Google) Great fast food counter with delicious fresh snacks. The saté croquette is a snack that is not too devoured and can only be obtained at the FEBO. (Original) Geweldige fastfood counter met heerlijk verse snacks. De saté kroket is een niet te verslane snack, die alleen bij de FEBO zo goed te krijgen is.

This place has some unique vending machine system for some quick grab foods. It was nice to try a few different items to share. You can also order at the counter with a larger menu selection.

Not particularly cheap, not particularly good quality, and you have to order at the counter if you want chips anyway so I have no clue what the point is of this place. Chips were the best that style of chip can be, but you can very much do better.

(Translated by Google) Toppers, have been happy to go there for years when I go out. Now difficult, but it won't be long! (Original) Toppers, kom er al jaren graag als ik op stap ga. Nu even lastig maar dat duurt niet lang meer!

(Translated by Google) Always good. Tasty grill burgers with bacon (Original) Altijd goed. Lekkere grill burgers met bacon

(Translated by Google) good burgers. and cheese souflees (Original) goede hamburgers. en kaassouflees

After tried 2 different Febo in the city, I can say this is really a nice place where to stop for a snack: with max 4 euros you can taste warm and typical dutch food, card payment no problem . At the counter you can also purchase drinks and fries.

An iconic fast-food chain in the Netherlands, making it a must-try for visitors. Love this unique concept of displaying food in vending machines, added a fun and memorable element to the whole experience. It's not just about the food; it's also about the entertaining process of selecting and getting your meal from the automated dispensers.

The concept of food vending machines is very interesting, not only do you instantly receive your food, but you also see it before ordering it. The prices are very good, with one burger costing 4.50€. The location is very central and easy to reach, I don’t have a comment on the staff since it was fully self service. I would definitely recommend this place for a cheap and fast snack during your stay in Amsterdam.

Kind of McDonalds quality food. It isn't the greatest, but also isn't bad. At all. I tried several food items and all were fairly decent. I got to witness the cooks pulling items that had presumably sitting there for a while and replace them, so good to know they swap the food out periodically. Definitely a great spot to hit up after the bars or coffeeshops!

Cheap food in Amsterdam is hard to come by. You can get four items here for 8€ and be full. I think I am going to be a repeat customer.

I would have a satekroket any time of day, every day for the rest of my life. Never disappoints.

FEBO is a Dutch institution basically a burger takeaway food is good and tastes even better if you're really drunk

We ate so many Kaassouffles while in Amsterdam. Febo is great for a quick cheap snack. Most things are only €2

Delicious and cheap. A great option for a quick bite!!

(Translated by Google) Maybe one of the few places where you eat little and maybe quite well (Original) Forse uno dei pochi posti dove si mangia a poco e magari abbastanza bene

Fast service and high quality food. 😍💯

Fresh place. Worth it for a vending maschine food experience. Not much of a flavour, but maybe we chose wrong croquette. They have burgers and other stuff too.

What an awesome concept. Food is always fresh and food is always tasty. Might not be the healthiest place but if you’ve been out drinking there’s a good chance you will love absolutely everything on this menu! Bring some coins and have the time of your eating life.

Best place to grab ultra fast food in The Netherlands. Beware, the food is very hot

Just came because famous and cheaper than mcd but the taste i dont think so. But if u want to try for experience not that bad

Half of the windows don't operate. The cassier will only tell you that it's your own responsibility. I have never seen such bad service. Not recommended at all!!!

It's a super fast food, you can go whenever you want bc it is always open, pick your burger and eat it right through. Best choice if you are looking for a quick snack on the go. Vegetarian choices are available too.

The most delicious fried things to find in Amsterdam. It's an experience of a whole other level to be able to buy hot food from a vending machine and for it to taste this good was very surprising.

The food is too greasy and the employees are very rude, I have been there 3 times and the 3 times was the same. Anyways, it is a good option to eat something quickly and even better if you go to the shop window where you can pay without interacting with anyone.

Dutch croquettes. if you are in a hurry and don't want to spend a lot of money , then this is a nice place to stop real quick for a bite to eat. Overall, this was a fun way to grab something really fast to eat.

Amazing fast food, you may also find some traditional croquettes!

A fantastic way to try different types of croquets. Loved the idea and the was ease of it all.

It’s a great and delicious idea! The croquet is always fresh and the variety is amazing! The vegetarian option is mouthwatering

A kind of fast food with elements of Japan and their vending machines. Maybe it's a tourist-only place

Was ok, we tried two krokets. One was a bit to spiced, you could basically taste pepper and not much more. The other one was actually quite nice. Would give 3.5 stars. It's good when you want a quick and cheap snack or you are hungry late at night but wasn't really impressed. Not bad but not great

Great novelty place to come! And food is surprisingly good! Great for a light lunch or quick snack! Priced at around €3 each, am returning in a few weeks so I will be back 😊

Easy snacks

(Translated by Google) Tasty and great after coffee shop (Original) Gustosi e ottimi dopo coffee shop

Some really awesome food. Quick and easy to grab and go. Great for a late night snack or a quick bite as you explore.

(Translated by Google) Febo always tasty (Original) Febo altijd lekker

I loveeeeee this particular vending machine in amsterdam!! You just throw in coin or wireless payment, and get the dish you want from the vending machine and eat it. It stays warm inside so it's fresh!

(Translated by Google) Febo stop, think a lot of food from the machine. But it's the same as with the big burger chains, only here you won't find one, you get it directly from the kitchen. And that's exactly how the taste and quality are to be assessed. Like with Burger King and Mc Donald. The meat croquettes are not my cup of tea (Original) Febo halt, viel denken ja Pfui Essen aus dem Automaten. Aber es ist nichts anderes wie bei den großen Burgerketten auch, nur hier gibt es dir nicht einer sondern du holst es dir direkt aus der Küche. Und genau so ist auch der Geschmack und die Qualität zu bewerten. Wie bei Burger King und Mc Donald halt. Die Fleischkroketten sind nicht mein Fall

The most amazing vegetarian snack!!! Vitaaltje 4 life. Wish we had the same restaurant in Antwerp! Too bad we didn't met the chef to give him compliments. X

Nice place to pick up something to eat and go. Cheap food and amazing quality

Un' icona di Amsterdam, molto meglio della concorrenza: assaggiate il kaassouffle e non ve ne pentirete. Molto buono anche il chicken burger. Very good place where you can get a fast good food: i advice you to taste the chicken burger and the kaassouffle, you will not regret it

Got to love Febo for super quick food! And they have veggies options, an a change machine.

Well done guys. I like the idea that a bird feel secure itself to mix in with the people around in a shop. Giving this feeling to a bird is something cheerful.

Fast and convenient food. Only con is the lack of door so there are pigeons wandering around on the floor when you're there. If you've never been to a FEBO, it's basically a vending machine store for cheap hot classic foods. Make sure you pay the exact prices because they don't give you change! There's usually a change machine in the store so you can make sure you have the accurate coins.

super cheap, awesome and tasty food. Picked the Broodje Kroket twice and still don't regret it lmao. Go for it with no doubt!

(Translated by Google) The fries were not my cup of tea. But that is a matter of personal preference. But the compartments are very well stocked with delicious things. (Original) Die Pommes waren nicht so mein Fall. Aber das ist ja Geschmackssache. Die Fächer sind dafür aber sehr gut bestückt mit leckeren Sachen.

I know it’s not a Michelin restaurant but the patat is tasteless and the service is utterly awful. If you have choice head up the road for a decent patat. If not then keep your expectations low.

Likel 🔝

(Translated by Google) For a snack not expensive and quite good. (Original) Para un tentempié no caro y bastante bueno.

Iconic Dutch "eating from the wall"; everything was tasty

(Translated by Google) Always tasty (Original) Altijd lekker

(Translated by Google) What can we say, that one is hungry for "chemistry" or simply wants a snack, Phoebus and an institution in Holland. From fries and hamburgers to spicy and delicious absurd croquettes that only they know. Each of my trips to Holland has seen many Euros vanish in the form of coins in the Febo vending machines. GREAT (Original) Che dire,che si abbia fame "chimica" o semplicemente voglia di uno snack,Febo e un istituzione in Olanda. Dalle patatine e hamburgher a crocchette assurde speziate e buonissime che solo loro conoscono. Ogni mio viaggio in Olanda, ha visto molti Euro svanire sottoforma di monetine nei distributori automatici di Febo. OTTIMO

How can you not love febo?

Obligatory tourist sttraction !!! Nostalgic 1970 feeling.

Good cheap food. Better than McDonald's in the Netherlands

On a recent trip to Amsterdam, I made it a goal to stop by FEBO. The quick service restaurant offers fun, fast food. Customers use coins to buy food from heating ovens. Just drop in your coins and push the button next to the item you want. The door swings open and you can take your food. I tried a Kipburger (breaded chicken sandwich) and a Kaassouffle (cheese stick). Both were yummy! It really is fun fast food! Wish we had one in the US!

(Translated by Google) I wasn't expecting much from this fast food place, and I was very surprised at the taste of the croquettes which were really good !! My preference is for those with beef jus, a real wonder for the palate! I highly recommend ! (Original) Je ne m'attendais pas à grand chose de ce lieu de restauration rapide, et j'ai été très surprise du goût des croquettes qui étaient vraiment bonnes !! Ma préférence se portent sur celles au jus de viande de bœuf, une vraie merveille pour le palais ! Je recommande fortement !

How people can eat these terrible stuff! I only watched them and gave up!!!

MUST TRY! weird foods but a fun twist on fast food

(Translated by Google) Original concept, one piece and we eat! Super fast, and seriously, excellent for the low price !!! Open quite late, we would like to see some in other countries (Original) Concept original, une pièce et on mange! Super rapide, et sérieusement, excellent pour le faible prix !!!
