Amsterdam is one of those extraordinary cities that have a mouth watering eatery on nearly every corner. A vast array of international cuisine makes Amsterdam the kind of city that can offer something for every palette.
Prices in the Netherlands include tax and tips so therefore the words “service not included” shouldn’t be something that you should see. This having been said tipping is related to your satisfaction and happiness with the service that you receive and if your happy leave a tip as you would in a restaurant at home but do not feel obliged to do so.
Amsterdam has hundreds of restaurants and bars and to list them all here would be impossible. Here are a few eateries and bars to get you started;
