Every Saturday without fail, you will inevitably find us with a few canvas tote bags absolutely bursting with fresh produce and gourmet delicacies. Where have we been? Noordermarkt. Come early to ensure the freshest bounty of local breads, cheeses, and that day's harvested vegetables. If you're not in need of any munchable delights, there is also a host of stalls peddling vintage furs, antique trinkets, and home crafted decor. 

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 ;). 

Originally a travelling pop-up, this gallery shows pieces from global artists who may not have gotten the opportunity to exhibit their art otherwise. Their permanent location in Bos en Lommer now houses a collection of up-and-coming artists and has a bar where you can grab a drink after visiting the gallery.

It can be tough to find a spot in the city for big groups – or for dining with children, for that matter. Thankfully, there's always Café Restaurant Amsterdam. The food is solid, and the space is relaxed and inviting.
