"OBA Oosterdok - Public Library" is a good place to work, it's quiet, free and sells coffee. I think there's a small fee for wifi.

It's in Oost but Volkshotel is great for this.
r/AmsterdamMarch 2025 Kanarie Club In the foodhallen in the west. Beautiful huge space with lots of places to plug in
r/AmsterdamNovember 2022 The Hoxton has a nice hotel lobby. I'm not sure what their hours are like for laptop workers, but I assume they're open late. They have plenty of space upstairs and downstairs.
r/AmsterdamMarch 2022 They had lots of open spaces, good Wi-Fi, and didn’t check if people were guests or not.

Buro de Pijp is 4 euros per hour, its a desk/ coffee bar mix, not bad at all, but its in the Pijp so you probably got to metronor tram there (or get ov bike)
r/AmsterdamJuly 2023 I’ve worked at Conscious Hotel Vondelpark in the west at night. It’s a chill place, usually quiet, with tables or soft chairs and electric sockets. I don’t think they mind if you’re not a guest, but best to always order a drink or snack at the bar
r/AmsterdamOctober 2022 De Balie is a Dutch organization that produces independent journalistic programs about art, culture and politics. De Balie is located at Kleine-Gartmanplantsoen 10, near Leidseplein in Amsterdam.
For great places to work in AMS that don't serve cannabis, I'd recommend to check out De Balie (cafe/theatre on Leidseplein)
