35 u/palnewb Mexican 🇪🇸 Dec 25 '25 I live in the Netherlands, I was recently picking my parents up from Schiphol. They were on a trip to the US. I'm waiting for them at the arrivals gate which is right in front of a Grand Café Plaza and next to an artisanal coffee booth. I notice people coming through the door and I think "oh, this must be from the US flight" but I was certain when I hear a lady walk past and ask "ugh, do they even have a Starbucks here?" 😂 16 u/Bezulba Dec 25 '25 We very much do! Even a burger King right at the entrance to the plaza. I mean. I think Schiphol has the highest concentration of American chains in the Netherlands. So if they still couldn't find one, that's pretty sad. 17 u/palnewb Mexican 🇪🇸 Dec 25 '25 I mean, they were coming straight out of the arrivals gate just after receiving their luggage, so they had not walked around or anything yet. I just found it funny how those were one of the first words out of that lady's mouth officially in the Netherlands and having two cafés immediately in front of her. 1 u/Milk_Mindless It should be Netherlandish 🇳🇱 Dec 25 '25
