Hipster hangout extraordinaire Lotti’s is in the Hoxton Hotel and started as a joint venture with Soho House which itself opened in Amsterdam in 2018. It’s undeniably cool, there’s a great menu and with sofas and armchairs scattered invitingly it’s the type of place it isn’t too terrible to spend a few hours aided by some 21st Century juice courtesy of charging stations and usb ports at every table.
Being The Hoxton, all the chatter is in English – not just the guests, but staff too seem to be overwhelmingly UK expats which means if you close your eyes you might forget you’re in Amsterdam, and drift back to Holborn or Shoreditch. Something about that isn’t such a great thing if you’re in the city for short break and want to get into the Amsterdam vibe although if you’re there for business there’s no denying it ticks a whole lot of boxes.
Lotti’s has a great kids menu so its also a fantastic place to head with the kids, there’s room for the restless to move around a bit (there are tables in the lobby where they serve food as well as the restaurant area)
It’s also an excellent place if you need a spot to work from for a few hours, not only are there ample plug points, good wifi and comfy seats, you’ll be in good company and definitely won’t be the only person tapping away on a macbook air!
