A Meat Eater’s Guide to the Best Vegetarian Restaurants, Amsterdam, Netherlands

When I started Vegetarian January, I promised I’d write a complete guide to vegetarian Amsterdam at the end of the month. Of course, that didn’t happen - but there are good reasons why. I discovered so many veggie restaurants during my research that it took me far longer than a month to get around to eating at them all. Still now, I keep hearing about new restaurants popping up, but I’ve got to stop somewhere and write this thing, so here goes. Let’s call it a working document - I’ll keep adding to it as and when I find new vegetarian gems.

It’s also written by a confirmed meat eater; I’m not judging these places as vegetarian restaurants - I’m judging them as restaurants, full-stop.

With all this being said, my list is not that long. That’s because it’s not supposed to be an exhaustive list of ALL vegetarian restaurants in Amsterdam - it’s meant just to cover the BEST vegetarian restaurants in the city. It’s also written by a confirmed meat eater; I’m not judging these places as vegetarian restaurants - I’m judging them as restaurants, full-stop. So while there are plenty of other blogs and sites out there covering 20+ veggie places, I’m not convinced of their quality. These are my personal recommendations - places I’d send discerning foodies, whether vegetarians or meat eaters. If you have other suggestions, leave them in the comments! ......
