Best cheese fondue in Amsterdam
Restaurant Smelt
At Restaurant Smelt, fondue cheese from De Kaaskamer is used, served with sourdough bread from Fort Negen and blanched seasonal vegetables. Smelt also has fondues for vegan and gluten-free guests. There is also a fondue option with a lower alcohol content (for pregnant women, for example). Don't want any cheese at all? Then go for the confit de canard with sauerkraut.

Proeflokaal A. van Wees
Are you crazy about cheese and jenever? Then Proeflokaal A. van Wees is the place to be. Start with a tasting of the best jenevers and liqueurs in this atmospheric tasting room with a centuries-old history, followed by soul-warming traditionally-Dutch dishes and the last soggy piece of bread in a Dutch cheese fondue from Kaashuis Tromp.
Proeflokaal A. van Wees | Herengracht 139, Centrum
Fondue & Fondue
You guessed it: you can fondue endlessly over at Fondue & Fondue. Are you out and about with someone who's not crazy about cheese? No worries. Besides Dutch and truffle cheese fondue with French bread, vegetables and salad, they also serve fish and meat fondue here. And for dessert? Chocolate fondue, of course!
Fondue & Fondue | Overtoom 415, Oud-West
Het Karbeel
Family restaurant Het Karbeel has been a household name in Amsterdam since 1977. Order a cheese fondue according to an original Swiss recipe or something completely different, such as the Limburg cheese fondue with beer and thyme. End the evening devouring a warm apple strudel with a scoop of cinnamon ice cream.
Het Karbeel | Warmoesstraat 16, Centrum
Café Bern
At Café Bern, every day is National Cheese Fondue Day. After over 40 years, the cheese fondue recipe at the Swiss eatery is still unchanged - because why should they? However, what does change is the wine list. The owners select the best wines from Swiss vintner Olivier Mounir of Caves du Rhodan every year.
Café Bern | Nieuwmarkt 9, Centrum
Bistrot des Alpes
Imagine yourself in the French Alps at Bistrot de Alpes on Utrechtsedwarsstraat. Since 2015, Thibault and Dieuwertje have been serving fondue here with products from Savoie, Thibault's native region. In addition to cheese fondue, you can enjoy raclette, tartiflette, and fine wines from the region. Bon appétit!
Bistrot des Alpes | Utrechtsedwarsstraat 141, Centrum
Kaasbar Amsterdam
For a whole load of cheese, Kaasbar Amsterdam is the place to be. Besides three different types of cheese fondue, they serve 24 different types of cheese from small-scale Dutch farmers here. While you enjoy a glass of wine or a cocktail, the cheeses pass by on the sushi-style conveyor belt. So don't let the cheese run away before your neighbours grab the platter you want!
Kaasbar Amsterdam | Ferdinand Bolstraat 10, De Pip
STROOM KAASFONDUE
Another cheese hotspot in the Pijp area is STROOM. Gather around a fondue pan and choose from four different types of cheese fondue from De Kaaskamer or the cashew-based Vegan Fondue. For dipping, fresh-baked baguettes, rose veal potatoes, and a variety of seasonal vegetables are available.
