Lovely small Italian restaurant. Food is great and the atmosphere is very cozy. To book ahead since it’s a very small place. Ideal for couple :)

Amazing and good value place to discover Surinamese food and its famous Roti, a sort of crêpes that comes with tasty vegetables and meat/tofu/tempeh. If the restaurant is closed, try the take away :) always super busy but it’s a must do. Literally a minute away from the apartment.

12 minutes away, through the buzzing and multicultural Indischebuurt, the restaurant offers a creative kitchen with plates to share. Probably the best place in that area and therefore book ahead :)

The place is known for tasty roasted half/full chicken and its insane beer menu. Big terrasse in summer, facing the park. I recommend to book ahead as the place is famous.

A jungle bar. Super cool for drinks, I’d recommend to have food somewhere else though. I was disappointed by their truffle pizza.

Probably the trendiest bar of the neighbourhood. Ideal for groups and couples. Famous for beers and cocktails. I find it a tad overpriced but that goes with the place I guess.

A must do, an institution, a landmark. This traditional Dutch windmill is the home of the most famous Dutch brewery (besides heineken ah ah). It closes at 8 so you know what you have to do.

What a gem. This is a bit further away in Flevopark but there’s nothing like having a tea, beer or genever (dutch gin-like liquor) in this place on a sunny day. You’ll face a tiny lake where ducks keep landing and taking off.

Coffee!
After a nice walk through the park, you’ll find this french style restaurant, like a mecca for wine lovers. Daniel, the owner is a true passionate and always has something amazing for you. Meat
Lover, this is also your place. The place serves nice coffee and cinnamon bun during the day. Only good product.
