Foodhallen

Top choice in Amsterdam


This glorious international food hall in soaring ex-tram sheds has food stands surrounding an airy open-plan eating area. Some are offshoots of popular Amsterdam eateries and breweries. Look out for Viet View Vietnamese street food, Jabugo Iberico Bar ham and the Beer Bar, serving real ale tipples from local heroes 2 Chefs and Oedipus.

There's also a sit-down restaurant, the bright and laid-back Kanarie Club.
