HEMA

Very big, beautiful and multi story store in the center of city. It has nice spacious cafe as well. It has beautiful home decors, bedding, utensils, clothing, food and drinks, make up, cadels and stationary sections with much more. I love the stationary section the most and cannot resist. Love always visiting.

HEMA is the ultimate everyday essentials store – think super affordable prices on everything from stylish homeware, cute stationery, beauty products, clothing, underwear, and snacks, all with that signature clean Dutch design. The Amsterdam branches (especially the bigger ones like on Kalverstraat or Nieuwendijk) have massive variety across multiple floors, and you can't miss their famous rookworst (smoked sausage) at the food counter – grab one with mustard for a quick, cheap, and delicious Dutch snack! The vibe is practical, bright, and no-frills, perfect for stocking up on souvenirs or daily needs without breaking the bank. It's often busy and a bit chaotic, so spotting staff for help (like sizes or locations) can be challenging amid the crowds. Pro tip: Check near the escalators, food area, or cash registers – that's where employees are more likely to be available.

Although their selection is limited, their prices are reasonable, and they have plenty of offers. They also have a special corner for gifts.

Big store and helpful staff. Came for the miffy collab and did not leave disappointed.

Great shop, they've got everyday household items, clothes, make-up, food, two cafes, toilets (€ 0,40 cent), stuff for bikes, beds, you name it. They'll help you out and prices are good, good quality too. Recommend it! It's a chain all over the Netherlands but this is a big shop of theirs.

I want to give a huge shoutout to Johan! He was incredibly helpful, patient, and went above and beyond to assist me when I truly needed it. I can’t thank him enough; he really saved me, and I genuinely believe he deserves Employee of the Month for the way he handled my situation. Before connecting with Johan, I had spoken with another employee who was unfortunately very rude and unwilling to help. When I asked if she could check something for me, she simply said “no” and left it at that. It was very discouraging. Thankfully, I tried again and got Johan....what a complete difference! He not only helped but did so with kindness and professionalism. I’m super appreciative of everything he did for me.

Great Place to buy Household Products at reasonable price. Breakfast options are also available at good price

Our first experience in Hema was a great one. Accidently bumped into one outlet at the den Hague but it was closed then. Straight away went to the toy section, they had many wooden type toys that attract our son - and wife as well. The cafe serves excellent apple pie evoke the coffee is not too bad. Some food come in a set. The American cookies at €1 are also great to have.
