Food Scene

Great place along the Amstel river on the Eastern banks/Weesperzijde side. Possibly my favourite place for coffee (either take-out stroling along the Amstel river or inside with a lovely piece of apple pie). It has a great terrace along the Amstel (during the summer, in wintertime it closed and during Christmas time there is a huge Christmas tree filling up the terrace), but also inside there is plenty of seating. Enjoy your coffee, breakfast, lunch or dinner here anytime!

One of the top luxury hotels in the city and a Grande Dame along the banks of the Amstel river. The lobby is their show piece and nice to see when you walk by. La Rive restaurant has been a classic for years. In the summer it is a nice place to see the passing (salon/cannel)boats go by and have a drink.
