Tweedehands bij Scheltema Review

Great bookstore. 4 floors full of books. Everywhere seats where you can look at the book at ease. And you can have lunch and a nice cup of coffee and tea.

Always enjoy coming here
Great place and everything you want

Huge range and buzz. There is a cafe and tables for reading / working.

Books. What else you need? Coffee, they have that too!

I go here to buy books quite frequently, or sometimes just to enjoy the place and skip through some interesting reads. The staff is wonderful and generally knows how to help you with any question! Whatever type of book you're looking for, they have it! Foreign languages, history, kids books, study books, IT books; you name it, they have it!

Beautiful and cozy bookstore full of interesting (American) English books. A lot of choice, also in the non-classical genre. And there is a small coffee corner where delicious Ethiopian coffee is made. Top!

5-storey library with different relaxation areas, bar, restaurant and thousands of books. Highly recommended.

The biggest bookstore of The Netherlands!! Have you ever visited a bookstore which has a yearly event called the food-market! You can taste the food and buy the books to try at home yourself! Every week there is an event happening here, for adults or kids. This bookstore is exceptional and special, and you must put it on your list of must-visit when traveling to Amsterdam!

Fantastic place to read, buy books and have lunch. Recommended !!!

After so many years living in Vancouver Canada and finally returning with my twin daughters to my Amsterdam for a holiday, Scheltema was one of my favorite stores to visit in Amsterdam. What an amazing bookstore, you can really spend a whole day there. It was one of my highlights of my trip.
They still wrap your book s in beautiful wrapping paper you can pick out yourself. What a treat! And amazing staff and a great coffee place, i was in heaven.

Large stock of books and everything, friendly staff and easily accessible

Wonderful!! Who said 'Paperless world'?!??? BOOKS only ...

Nice Dutch book store, for leisure books. No textbooks if that s what ur after.

I have never heard of an establishment that really treated a customer so rudely.

My girlfriend had to order a fairly pricey book for her school here. This would supposedly be available, but this turned out to be no longer true after 2 days.
When my girlfriend called to cancel the order, this would happen according to a lady the next day. However, this promise turned out to be meaningless as well, since nothing was canceled after 3 days.
My girlfriend has called Scheltema up to 5 times about this and every one was either taken away or hung up immediately.

This behavior is to be expected from an eight-year-old who would suddenly become the owner of a random candy store, not the largest bookstore in Amsterdam. Really absurd.

Right by the north entrance/exit of the ROKIN metro station, just south of the Dam. Great place to browse. Modern with some period detailing. Good English section as well as English books in the new/remainders and used sections (on the More

Even better than the version on the Koningsplein; light, spacious, sufficient merchandise and a good in-house eatery.

Very big collection. When you're searching for a book you will usually find it here!

Boekenhandel Scheltema is a very nice bookstore with friendly staff.

Super nice bookstore with multiple reading corners and a cafe. Buying books here is fun!

Organized and clean. Only some staff menber is missing when the cashier is busy.

Great selection of Dutch and English books. Lovely atmosphere and helpful staff, what is not too like.

Nice that there is a bar but a bit expensive but nice shop

The best bookstore in the city. A wide selection of new and used books. Visit the top floor for a great selection of used books.

Nice place with nice coffee and the offer in books is very large!

One of the nicest book stores there is, very wide assortment, for everything.

Beautiful bookstore - no more shopping on the internet

Good bookstore with the largest assortment of Amsterdam. Here I always manage to find a good book.

The best bookshop in Amsterdam. Very large selection, professional staff and nice reading areas.

Large bookstore with lots of choice. Nice employees.

Execellent bookstore. Most books can be found and if not, they will gladly order it for you.

Huge bookstore. There are books in English as well as a free toilet.

Ordered this book on Monday for one of my best friends as he became 50 and this shop made sure they had it the next day! Great service!
