Amsterdam in Bloom<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Blossom blooms across Amsterdam, where the canals of Amsterdam glisten with reflections of tree-lined cobbled streets, and moored boats shed their winter layers. In springtime Amsterdam, friends spill onto terraces lining the canals, gathering outside the city\u2019s characterful brown caf\u00e9s, while lunches in Amsterdam are taken outdoors\u2014on benches, stools, and even pavement edges. Along the waterways of Amsterdam, wooden jetties become sought-after spots for an urban dip, capturing the essence of local life. As a city best experienced from or beside the water, this is the gloobles round-up of Amsterdam\u2019s chicest spring addresses.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

De Goudfazant<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Noord, Waterfront<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Portioned off from the rest of the city by the IJ River, the riotously chic Amsterdam Noord is home to a bona fide collection of restaurants, cinema clubs, breweries, and creative studios. Take De Goudfazant, a former, bare-bones mechanical repair store and car garage, which is now an industrial, gourmet restaurant. The steel frame beams remain, a vintage teal Volvo is parked inside, and red canteen chairs contrast the white tablecloths illuminated by the ludicrously large glass chandelier. Impressive interiors, a creative French-inspired, seafood-heavy menu, and remarkable views; head here for a late lunch or early dinner and watch the light change over the water.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

De Kas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Greenhouse Dining, Park Frankendael<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Many of Amsterdam\u2019s fine dining restaurants are fused with a chic, casual cool and though de Kas does the same, it still takes the essence of fine dining eating seriously. Its philosophy, ‚harvested in the morning, on your plate in the afternoon‘, captures the freshness of the ingredients. Fruits, herbs, and vegetables from the gardens in Amsterdam and the Beemster are at the core of the daily-changing, tasting menu. As one of the first farm-to-fork restaurants, this greenhouse dining experience is superb. Here, it\u2019s less about the water and more about the feeling of space and seasonality. Best for a long lunch.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

‚t Sluisje<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Nieuwendammerdijk<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

A true hidden gem overlooking the water. With the laidback, extra gezellig<\/em> vibe that characterises Noord, it should come as no surprise that one of the best, most chilled brown caf\u00e9s is smack bang in the middle. Caf\u00e9 ‚t Sluisje is an old school pub where Noord locals have been filling up on bitterballen (deep fried ragout croquette balls) and a biertje (beer) for more than 100 years. It\u2019s the perfect pit stop when exploring Noord by bike.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

De L’Europe Terrace<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n

Proven\u00e7ale-style Brasserie Marie\u2019s Amstel-hugging terrace reopens ahead of the summer season. Inside, mahogany walls and floor-to-ceiling mirrors complement the bistro chairs and transparent drapes. Outside, restaurant-goers can arrive by boat and take the prime canal-side tables. Sip on a glass of Champagne and graze on the French-influenced classics, where grilled cod is served on a bed of warm cider butter sauce and steak tartare is spiked with an anchovy mayonnaise, with the best waterside views of the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

H’ART Museum Garden & Quay<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n

Though a lot of Amsterdam\u2019s museums are clustered together in the Museumkwartier, one of our go-to spots for soaking up culture is just across the Magere Brug. Thanks to partnerships with the British Museum, Centre Pompidou, and Smithsonian American Art Museum, H’ART has a dizzying rotation of stellar exhibitions. Combine a trip with a quiet moment by the water and bring a book to read in the serene inner courtyard gardens, which also hosts seasonal markets and open-air cinema nights.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Dinner Cruises<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n

Less about the boat, more about the perspective: gliding past some of the city\u2019s best restaurants while dining at that same level. It\u2019s quietly spectacular, especially in the evening light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Concierge Team is there to assist with bookings and inquiries. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Restaurant aan de Poel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Amstelveen, On the water<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Just outside Amsterdam, but worth the 30-minute journey by bike. This urban hotel and two-Michelin-starred restaurant dishes up a mix of beloved Dutch delicacies and more international flavours. Even better than the food is the gorgeous view of the water. Be sure to ask for a table by the window.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
