Lately I’ve been enjoying what Bussum has to offer. One example is Bussum Culinair 2026.
Today’s post is about where to enjoy a coffee in Bussum.
I will admit that I’ve been left very pleasantly surprised at the coffee scene in this charming village. On top of that, not only is the restaurant and cafe scene popping over there, people overall are also friendly.
Open since this summer, Vila Nova is a Spanish delicatessen located in Havenstraat.
The establishment is run by a lovely Spanish/Costa Rican-Dutch couple, Anahi and Remco, together with their team. Their mission is to introduce Spanish flavours to Het Gooi.
In fact, just recently we held the very first edition of “vermuteo” in collaboration with HelloEverybody! Hilversum. It was a gezellig evening and really cool to learn about this custom as I had no clue it existed. The establishment also hosts other interesting events, from practising Spanish to tastings, check out their calendar here.
While at Vila Nova you can enjoy specialties such as jamón ibérico, manchego, wines, and pastries; whatever you do, don’t miss out on their coffee. Anahì is a master in this field. If you like your coffee you’re in safe hands.
I enjoyed a cortado prepared by Remco, with a piece of their Basque cheesecake. The bold notes of the coffee blended nicely with the creamy and tangy cheesecake. I recommend to take it easy and enjoy the flavours and good company at the bar.

CAFEdaki brings Greek coffee culture to Bussum, alongside traditional pastries such as bougatsa, a sweet custard-filled pastry, and savoury spinach and feta pies.
I’ve tried a few items of theirs and I really enjoy their cappuccino with bougatsa. Think crispy flaky philo pastry on the outside, and a delicious creamy custard on the inside paired with a warm coffee. So blissful.
The atmosphere itself is relaxed, great if you’re looking to work from home at a cafe or hanging out with a friend. They also sell Greek products such as olive oil, and other interesting products.
Not a fan of coffee? Their matcha is also really good.
Address: Nassaulaan 23, Bussum
Located in front of Sint-Vituskerk you will find this cute cozy coffee bar and lunchroom.
Here coffee is taken seriously. 11 O’Coffee serves its own house blend alongside everything from classic espressos and cappuccinos to more indulgent coffee creations. For those feeling peckish, there’s also a selection of freshly prepared sandwiches, pastries and light lunches.
Founded by Ahmed Hussain in 2020, the cafe has worked hard to offer good quality service and produce. And the results prove it: in 2024, 11 O’Coffee won the “ECT Awards 2024 – The Winning Specialty Cafe” award from European Coffee Trip. Competition included cafes from cities like Amsterdam and The Hague.
I really like their cappuccino and matcha, it’s definitely an experience when you can taste the notes and appreciate the craft. My favourite treats from them are the brownies!
Address: Brinklaan 102, Bussum
In the heart of Bussum you can find coffee with a purpose.
Founded by Warren, the café places particular emphasis on ethically sourced coffee, working directly with farmers in Cameroon and Uganda to ensure fair compensation and traceability.
The beans are roasted in-house, bringing the journey from farm to cup into focus. Alongside its selection of espressos, cappuccinos and flat whites, BLIBCO serves homemade cakes, pastries and freshly prepared breakfast and lunch.
What I like the most about this location is the friendly and warm atmosphere and the dedication towards coffee. The location itself is also very central and faces the town square, an excellent place to take a break from the bustle of Bussum or to meet-up with friends.
FYI: BLIBCO also sells its own roasted beans to take home.
Address: Havenstraat 118, Bussum
To Be Continued..
Who would’ve thought that Bussum was home to one of the country’s best specialty coffee establishments? I’m continuously surprised by what I find in this charming village.
On that note, I realise that there are a couple of places missing in my list and I will update the list when I’ve tried them. Currently on my list is HAZY Coffee, Coffee Culture, and Lunchroom Coupé.
Do you think I’m missing any other location? Don’t hesitate to contact me.
Tot de volgende keer!
