Stadshart Amstelveen

On March 27, 2014, Le Pain Quotidien

Netherlands opened its 5th store
in Amsterdam.
LPQ Stadshart Amstelveen is located in a 4-star shopping mall
in Amstelveen, a small high income neighborhood at the edge
of Amsterdam. With over 200 luxury shops, the complex attracts
customers from within town and surrounding towns. Guests also
ock to the mall to visit the large market located right in front of
Le Pain Quotidien. Every Tuesday and Friday, the market hosts
vendors from hardware to fresh produce. The Tuesday market is
special to LPQ, as it offers only organic products.
Situated on a round corner of the mall, LPQ Stadshart Amstelveen
is perfectly designed with a stunning all glass faade. Floor
to ceiling windows allow an abundance of natural light in,
while giving mall strollers a full view of the interior. As you
enter the shop, you are immediately greeted by our bakery
counter and retail pantry. At the front of the shop, there is soft
seating for guests to unwind, followed by a cozy nook, featuring
tin tables and a wooden bench that curves with the shape of the
glass exterior.
The shop can accommodate 86 guests inside, plus 110 on its two
terraces. The front glass windows double as sliding doors that
can be fully opened. In the center of the shop sits the largest
communal table in the Netherlands. High ceilings expose metal
pipes, which give the shop an industrial, airy feel. Our signature
wooden furniture and traditional dcor ensure the restaurant
remains rich and cozy, true to our LPQ atmosphere.
