The Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) is the ultimate playground for true ravers, with five days of nonstop parties, late-night adventures, epic music, and those cheeky after-parties we just can’t say no to. Let’s be real—by the end of it, you’ll definitely feel the aftermath of back-to-back nights out. It’s basically a week-long bender packed with full sends and unforgettable moments with your squad. It’s not for the weak. But when the fun winds down and you’re in desperate need of a hangover fix, we’ve got you covered. Here are five spots in Amsterdam that’ll help shake off that post-party fog and get you back on your feet… just in time for the next one.

Greenwoods: Located by the Singel Canal and Keizersgracht, Greenwoods is the spot to recover from a heavy night with their English-style breakfast options, like the classic full English, eggs on toast, and detox juices that will bring you back to life. After one of their detox juices, you might even start believing in miracles—or at least forget about the deep intimate conversations you were exchanging in a stranger’s kitchen until the sun came up.

Bakers & Roasters: This New Zealand-inspired café in De Pijp is your hangover haven, offering hearty breakfasts like eggs benedict, pancakes, and fresh smoothies to soak up last night’s regret. With their vibrant atmosphere and belly-filling meals, it’s the perfect place to refuel and pretend you didn’t just shave seven years off your life last night.

CT Coffee & Coconuts: Nestled in the heart of De Pijp, this airy, laid-back spot is the perfect hangover hideaway, serving fresh juices, smoothies, coconut water, and healthy breakfast bowls that’ll make you feel like you actually care about your body again. With comfy seating to lounge in, it’s the ideal place to recharge and pretend last night didn’t happen—at least until round two.

The Avocado Show: When you're craving something light but still need to recover from the night before, The Avocado Show in Amsterdam Zuid has you covered with creative avocado-based dishes like avocado toast, poke bowls, and smoothies. It’s the trendy, green fix your body’s begging for—because nothing says "I’m turning my life around" like an overdose of healthy fats.

The Breakfast Club: With locations all around the Dam, The Breakfast Club is your go-to for classic recovery fuel—pancakes, eggs, and fresh juices to revive your energy after a night that took more than it gave. It’s the breakfast spot where you can replenish your soul, one carb at a time, and pretend you didn’t promise yourself “never again” just a few hours ago.

After a week of raging, making poor life decisions, and discovering just how many hours a human can dance without collapsing, these hangover spots will have you believing your body is a temple once again—ginger shots and all. Whether you’re digging into a full English breakfast, putting down a detox juice, or pretending a smoothie will erase all the sins of last night, these spots have your recovery plan sorted. So go ahead, refuel, recharge, and convince yourself that this is the start of your "new healthy lifestyle"—at least until the next after-party.
