Looking for the perfect spot in Amsterdam to take your kids? Head to Playhood, an indoor creative and educational amusement center. You can truly feel the passion and love that the owners put into this place, as everything is incredibly well designed and implemented. Enjoy kiddos, and parents ;). 

Sure, Amsterdam has no shortage of great parks that are perfect for whiling away an afternoon in the sun, but we couldn’t possibly leave out the Westerpark. In addition to its expanses of leafy green space, the Westerpark also has a lively creative and nightlife scene. Pop into the Westergasfabriek to check out indie shops, a cinema, and cool restaurants.

Het Ketelhuis is one of Amsterdam's quintessential arthouse cinemas and a fave amongst locals. Most screenings are Dutch-spoken independent films, but don’t let this discourage you from stopping by! Het Ketelhuis is also a lovely spot for coffee or something to eat, particularly in spring and summer!

From the outside, BAK doesn’t look like much. But once you take the stairs up to the third floor of this stripped back, unassuming warehouse & step inside, you’ll see what all the fuss is about. This industrial-style restaurant overlooking the former timber port of Amsterdam serves up a delicious vegetable-focused tasting menu. Ask for a table by the window to best enjoy the exceptional views & tasty bites.
