For all of the ‘broodjes’ we eat here in Amsterdam there are surprisingly few really fantastic bakeries. But fear not: there is one that we think may even be better than any Parisian boulangeries. Levain et le vin is a wonderful bakery & wine shop that sells gorgeous loaves of sourdough bread & exciting & unusual natural wines. Did we mention it’s adorable too?

Bon Burger in Amsterdam Oud-West arose from the numerous pop-ups and residencies hosted at its sibling wine bar, Bottleshop. Though the extensive wine list prevails at the new location, the small plates and nibbles are subbed for burgers and fries. With a seasonal, monthly special or the usual four-burger rotation, the patties are loaded with sauce, toppings, and stuffed into a homebaked, golden brioche roll or potato bun. The vegetarian option isn't an afterthought, instead a beyond meat pattie is as equally juicy as the beef. On those summery Amsterdam days, the waterside terrace spills over with families and friends, catching the last of the evening rays. No matter the day and no matter the time, its walk-in only, for it is a burger joint above all else.
