Excellent and popular vegetarian restaurant on beautiful Prinsengracht. Everything here is delicious and moderately priced, but come hungry as portions are large and the vegan pies and desserts are all amazing. Service can be a tad slow however.

Almost exclusively seafood dishes like the name suggests but great salads as well. Everything is very fresh. Great option after an afternoon in the Museumplein. But quite pricey.

Gollem is very popular with both locals and expats for its wide selections of Dutch, Belgian and other international beers. Very laid back atmosphere that spills out onto its street terrace in warmer months. Jazz performances and quiz nights help to cement the friendly neighborhood vibe. The food menu is complimentary to the beers, specializing in cheese platters, tasty fries and filling stews that are perfect for colder nights

Essentials

A small bodega-style market very close to the flat on Kinkerstraat and Da Costakade. Though small, they actually have a superior produce selection that is better than bigger supermarkets. Here you can reliably get a selection of greens a little closer to what you might expect in American super markets (rainbow chard, tuscan kale, etc). Excellent quality fruits and vegetables in general, along with extensive spices, grains, olives, dates, etc.
