Cozy food to match the atmosphere

This is the coziest place to enjoy a warm soup during the winter and a fresh salad during the summer.

Some of my winter menu favourite is the caldo verde and the mushroom bun

A bit pricey but worth a visit

Food is fresh and healthy, very creative dishes. Love the bitter balls😄the best in the restaurant is the view of the canal and the lovely atmosphere. A bit pricey, but still worth it.

Simply brilliant

I've eaten here a few times but this latest visit really blew me away. We had almost every dish on the menu, shared between four of us, and loved or at least liked everything.

Favourites were the smoked sauerkraut, pointed cabbage and spicy risotto.

The oyster mushroom bitterballen are always good.

Update from latest visit: still great! And great to hear they have permission to keep going for a couple more years.

Pros: Excellent food, all vegan, Friendly service , Bitterballen

Excellent food, fair price, wonderful project

Great food! The serving sizes were a bit on the small side, but the reasonable prices allowed for desserts and drinks which made up for it. Either way, immensely happy this project exists and that I could come support it.

Pros: Quality/freshness, Flavor, Eco-project

Cons: Slightly undersized serving sizes

Great vibes and food

I came here with my coworker and his wife who are omnis but veg curious. They loved it! The lemon risotto in particular was a hit, but everything was good. The location is right on the water and the decor reminds me of the hip neighborhoods in Berlin. This is a great place for groups.

Pros: Delicious food, Cool and inspiring location , Great value for money

Cons: None

Leuke vibe

Hier toevallig langs gekomen na een wandeling. Het was een leuke sfeer en we hebben lekker gegeten, alleen waren de porties wat klein voor hoeveel je betaalde.

Cons: Kleine porties, Prijzig

Great food

Interesting vegetable focused menu. I tried the fava and roasted veg, which made a lovely light lunch. I also had a warm apple juice, which was flavoured with a little cinnamon and was delicious.
Service was friendly but a little slow as they were busy.

Pros: Interesting menu, Cosy, bustling atmosphere

Amazing

Cosy place, they have a cat, friendly staff, and unique fancy menu. A bit expensive if you want a quick bite, but ideal for a date or if you have something to celebrate. If you take a full meal, one drink and desert you should expect to pay between 30 and 50 per person. But I highly recommend to check it out. Will try to visit again this week for the fried mushrooms.

Pros: The food is amazing and high quality, The staff is very friendly, The place is cosy and eccentric

Cons: The price

Cute Restaurant with cats

Homely feeling, nice food (portions could have been a bit bigger). Next to our table lay one of the two cats, which was extra nice and cozy

Cafe De Ceuvel

Cool place! A good midway point between Eye and STRAAT if you’re on foot.

Bean Stew was good but the portion could’ve been bigger and would be better if the bread was toasted.

Non-vegan friend had the Bapao and a Cappuccino and he really enjoyed both.

Chocolate Brownie was insanely good. Dense, rich, and extremely chocolatey. One of the best I’ve ever had.

Hidden gem

The Café is in Nord Amsterdam located directly at the water. The location is very nice, you can sit on the terrace near the water, but it is also
very nice and cosy inside. We came for lunch and had filled bao buns with salad and a dip, a juice and later hot chocolate with whipped cream. It was very good! Also the cakes and the dinner menu sounded very good!
It is a place to sit for longer, enjoy the time and talk. They have also board games you can take.
I wouldn’t have found this place without Happy Cow but I am glad that we made our way out there, it was definitely worth it!

Pros: Nice location, Friendly and attentive service, Delicious food!

Cons: A bit further away from the center

Lovely place :)

Has a really cool atmosphere. The food tasted great! The person I went there with and I got ‘krokante bloemkool’, ‘ravioli’ and ‘verse vijgen’.

I also took a piece op carrotcake to go, which tasted wonderful :)

When ordering a hot drink you get a piece of ‘boter koek’. It’s the first time that I saw a vegan version of this. It tasted really good😄

Pros: Great food, Cool and chill atmosphere , Nice people

Fully vegan & fantastic atmosphere!

If you want to impress your vegan friend/acquaintance, take them to this place!

What a wonderful dining experience I had!

Fully vegan restaurant, that has also implemented some environmentally-friendly practices, friendly staff, great/relaxing location, super tasty food and coolvibe.

Apparently they will close down soon; the field is owned by the gemeente and they have other plans for that area 🙁

Pros: Fully vegan, Great location/surroundings , Friendly staff

Cons: A bit expensive
