Noordwest

The moment you walk into Noordwest, you're in for a nice surprise. In the middle of the Jordaan and surrounded by historical architecture, you will discover that the picturesque décor of the marketplace blends harmoniously with the ultra-modern design and tasteful interior of this restaurant. The name Noordwest was chosen, because there are two entrances: one overlooking the the Noordermarkt and the other facing the Westerstraat. On sunny days both doors lead to the terrace, where Noordwest gladly serves refreshments and meals at your request.

For a cup of coffee and a tasty slice of pie, the restaurant opens at 11 o'clock in the morning. At lunch time they offer a choice of toasted sandwiches, buns with a wide range of fillings, fresh salads and delicious homemade soups.


At dinnertime cooperation between kitchen, restaurant and bar is most essential. The team of Restaurant Noordwest are fully aware of that challenge and ready to show you what efficient teamwork is all about. The Chef composes a diverse menu where the dishes change on a regular base, because he likes to use products that are in season.

Early Saturday morning the 'Boerenmarkt' will burst into life at our doorstep. This market where in the old days local farmers used to sell their products, is nowadays well known throughout the country for its wide range of organic products. Monday you can wander around the 'Lapjesmarkt' right along the Westerstraat and around the Noordermarkt. This used to be a market for fabrics only, but now old furniture and trendy secondhand clothes have become popular merchandise as well. Are you in for a rest and a cup of coffee? On market day Noordwest is open - both doors - at nine o'clock.
