Restaurants

Great places for dinner
Great Italian cuisine. They don’t serve pizza but many other delicious things. And make sure to end your dinner with the homemade tiramisu or try the scroppino, it’s prepared at your table! Koevoet is situated in an old typically Amsterdam style bar and has a great atmosphere. -- Reservation is required --

Best apple pie of Amsterdam. Also a nice spot for an easy dinner and a drink on the Noordermarkt. If you don't feel like standing in line during the day you can also get the apple pie to go until 23u!

De Hallen is a monument built between 1902 and 1928. Once the first electric trams were serviced here. But today it houses a great area filled with media, culture, fashion, food and crafts, a libary, hotel, cinema, local markt and foodhall.
