Pancake Boat Amsterdam: all-you-can-eat pancake cruise, tickets and tips
Updated on November 5, 2026
The Pancake Boat is a 1 hour 15 minute cruise from the NDSM, in Amsterdam North, with unlimited pancakes. The ticket includes the cruise, a pancake buffet with a choice of toppings (gluten-free and vegan pancakes are available) and a ball pit for children. Drinks are bought on board, and there is no guided tour: it is a meal on the water rather than a commentated cruise.
