Top 9 healthy spots in Amsterdam

I love healthy eating and I normally eat healthy not because I want to loose weight, but because I just think that a raw carrot cake is delicious! There are many healthy spots in Amsterdam or cafes where there are at least some healthy options. Today I want to share with you my list of the best healthy/healthier cafes in the city. P.s. There are more of them, but I only want to share with you those places where I know that both the service and the quality of the food is good.
Я люблю здоровое питание и чаще всего предпочитаю правильно питаться не потому, что хочу похудеть, а потому что считаю полезную пищу вкусной! В Амстердаме открылось много кафе здоровой еды и сегодня я хочу поделиться с вами своими фаворитами. П.с. В этом списке не указаны все рестораны здоровой еды, но только те, в которых мне понравились и сервис и качество еды.

This place is located on the Kerkstraat, near Leidseplein, in the center of Amsterdam, so it is my favorite option if I happen to be in that area. Here you can order delicious avocado toast, get whatever you want from the healthy buffet or choose one of the healthy desserts. You can also buy some beautiful healthy cookbooks at Lavinia good food.
Juice Brothers have already opened 2 locations (Van Woutstraat, Raamsteeg) in Amsterdam and there are more to come. First, I have discovered the juices and breakfasts at the Juice Brothers, which were both delicious. Recently, I have tried their acai bowl and fell in love! There are a few options, so everyone can find their favorite acai bowl. The healthy desserts such as energy balls are also great. 
This place is one of my favorite for a breakfast on the weekend or a quick lunch on a weekday. Their waffles are my favorite in Amsterdam. I wrote a separate post about this place, you can read more about this place  here 
LITE/DARK is a juice/chocolate bar that is focused on using two things: fruit and healthy dark chocolate. Here you can find healthy bites, power shots, energy shakes, healthy salads, wraps, paninis and of course cakes. This cafe is located on the popular Utrechtsestraat near Rembrandtplein. 
Beter en Leuk is a healthy spot that serves breakfast, brunch and lunch. Next door to the cafe you can find a take away shop where you can order anything to go. The owners of Beter en Leuk also organize different workshops (cooking, vegan brunch, vegan sushi and palmistry).  

This healthy spot is located at the bottom of Vondel park and the beautiful area of Oud Zuid. Roots serves cold pressed juices, smoothies, daily breakfast, lunch and healthy desserts. My favorite thing to get at Roots is the muffin from coconut flour with carrot, banana, dates and cranberries. 

Pluk is definitely one of my favorite spots in Amsterdam to have lunch or just grab a smoothie to go. The Pluk smoothie with passion fruit, banana, strawberry, soy-yogurt and chia seeds is my favorite smoothie that I can find in Amsterdam! They also have a selection of healthy salads and sandwiches and really delicious desserts (not all so healthy). If you are a carrot cake fan like me, make sure to try it at Pluk.
SLA is my favorite salad bar in Amsterdam and every time I want to have a light but filling lunch, I go there. Luckily, SLA already has 5 locations in different areas of Amsterdam so there is always one nearby. What I love about SLA is the fact that you can make your own salad with the ingredients you like. The size of the salads at SLA are very big so normally I can’t even finish my bowl and take it with me to finish later. Desserts from SLA are the most delicious completely healthy desserts I have ever tried which change with every new season.
Vegabond is located near the Jordaan district, behind the Anne Frank museum. This place is a combination of the healthy food store and a cafe with a beautiful view on the Amsterdam canal. I really loved their healthy wraps and cupcakes.
