La Oliva

In the middle of the Jordaan you will find a Northern Spanish wine bar and restaurant. Northern Spain means pintxos, a kind of large tapas that you eat with drinks. You can visit from 12:00 for these delicious snacks, lunch, drinks, and dinner.

De Wetering

The unique Café de Wetering is in a picturesque 17th century house. Here, no loud music or other raucousness but instead quiet intellectual discussion about literature, the meaning of life and football matches. Regulars of all ages usually gather together downstairs at the tiny bar, while first-time visitors warm themselves in front of the old-fashioned open hearth upstairs.

Waterland

Countryside bike tour

Cycling tour through the protected nature areas north of Amsterdam. This year Yellow Bike has selected the most beautiful 35 km in the spectacular Waterland district north of Amsterdam especially for you. The Waterland tour will take you almost exclusively by scenic paths across a nature reserve. Through centuries old picturesque villages, past countless brooks and waterways and straight through green pastures.

Festina Lente

Festina Lente on the Looiersgracht is actually more like a cosy living room than a café. The decor is a mishmash of things and they have lots of board games available. There are wood tables, a few comfy lounge chairs and a sweet resident cat. It is the owners’ philosophy that we all take time to enjoy life. Festina Lente means ‘Make haste slowly’ in Latin, and the young crowd here take this to heart. As well as drinks you can also get reasonably priced soup, rolls, apple-pie and Mediterranean dishes.

Cultuurferry

Discover the most comfortable way to explore Amsterdam: over the water with Cultuur Ferry. Get on board the authentic sloop and enjoy a relaxing trip along the Oosterdok, the historic canals and the Museumplein and feel how nature and culture come together.

Drift Museum

Drift Museum will open its doors in early 2025 in the monumental Van Gendt Hallen in Amsterdam. The museum shows works by Studio Drift: performative installations that make you look at the world around you differently. The interplay of the works of art with the industrial building promises to be breathtaking.

Seven seas

Restaurant Seven Seas in Grandhotel Amrâth has a French/international cuisine and a nice selection of wines, but the most special thing is the location. It is located in the monumental Scheepvaarthuis (1914), one of the first buildings in the style of the Amsterdam School. The marble floor, wooden paneling, stained glass decorations and original details create atmosphere during the gourmet tasting.

Vapiano

On the Amstelstraat just around the corner from the Rembrandtplein you will find the famous restaurant chain Vapiano. In a casual design interior with lots of natural stone and wood, a herb garden and a real olive tree, hundreds of people can sit down for a brick oven pizza, homemade pasta or salad.

De Nieuwe Lelie

The Jordanian neighborhood pub De Nieuwe Lelie is a brown, simple pub with high shop windows (there used to be a shop here), mezzanine, art on the walls and a pool table in the downstairs area. That pool table is a real draw for younger people. Late Friday and Saturday nights there are people in their twenties drinking and talking; around the cocktail hour you will find the somewhat older regular customers here.

Monte Pelmo

On sunny days, you’ll see the queue before you see Monte Pelmo itself – a tiny ice cream shop hidden in the Jordaan. Founded in 1957, it’s often been voted the best ice cream in the city centre. After you try a scoop of their strawberry cheesecake or tiramsu flavours, you’ll probably agree.
