The cup

A specialty coffee and cake cafe installed in the former sacristy of the Oude Kerk, Amsterdam's oldest church dating from 1517; owners Job and Anne have run it since 2013, pulling Bocca espresso on a La Marzocco Linea with a Ceado grinder. The hidden courtyard terrace is one of the calmest spots in the busy city centre.
