Bark Brasserie
One of the few restaurants open until midnight. An excellent choice for fresh fish, their speciality. They offer mainly traditional dishes, which are not that highly spiced. They also have a good selection of oysters which are brought chilled to your table. The wines are reliably good and although this building is located in the upper-class enclave of Oud West, it doesn't feel pretentious or over-bearing. They have a few seats outside and pre-concert menus are available for anyone going to a performance at the Concertegebouw nearby. Middle price range, from €35.
Opening times:
Daily 12 am - 3 pm and 5.30 pm - 12.30 pm
No lunchtime opening at the week end.

Todine @ Hotel Arena
Excellent restaurant with a modern European influence. The dining area is part of this three star hotel, recently converted from a former orphanage. Every Friday and Saturday night different DJs are invited to select dance music in the bar from 10.30 pm. Anything from 70's and 80's bands to something more recent. Mid-price range.

La Place
A great place to take children and members of the family, as there is a wide choice of different dishes and everyone can see the food being cooked in front of their eyes. There are fresh fruit shakes, delicious muffins as well as ''mix your own'' salads and smoked salmon filled rolls. Plenty of choice for vegetarians, including at least one hot soup. There is a small open-air balcony on the upper floor and a non-smoking section under a glass roof. There is also a ground floor bakery, Le Marché, selling focaccia bread, apple cakes, pizza slices and cold drinks to take away. A Dutch delicacy, ''gevulde koekjes'' (almond filled cakes) are sold in packs of four to take away. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible as there are lifts to all floors. Inside V&D (Vroom and Dreeseman department store. Entrance on Rokin as well as Kalverstraat)

Café-Restaurant Amsterdam
Situated in a former water pumping station built in 1897, this huge space is now an impressive café and restaurant open from mid-morning until late. Known as Holland's most beautiful industrial monument, it still houses a majestic diesel engine next to the bar. Look out for the fish decoration over the water fountain in this remarkable building; one of the many things lovingly cared for by former workers. Above you hang impressive floodlights from the former Ajax and Olympic stadiums, adding to the unique atmosphere. It may be difficult to park here, however, as the restaurant is sited in an ''eco'' car-free zone. The ''international'' dishes are well-prepared and reasonably priced.
Opening times:
Sun - Thur 11.30 am - 10.30 pm, Fr and Sat 11.30 am - 11.30 pm

Maximiliaan
This micro-brewery is a congenial bar on the edge of Nieuwmarkt. Built on the site of the former medieval Bethaniën Monastery, Maximiliaan offers tasting sessions and guided tours as well as specialist beers. There are still hand-hammered copper kettles in the brewery, which create a unique atmosphere for all beer lovers. Here, various kinds of natural, unpasteurised and unfiltered beer are brewed according to traditional methods. Apart from the welcoming bar, where copper pipes lead the beer from the home brewery to the taps, Maximiliaan houses a restaurant and a Tasting Bar. In the à la carte restaurant you can order meals, many of which have beer as an essential ingredient. Beer connoisseurs can try their latest concoctions which are brewed on site, which apparently makes the beer taste quiet different. You can even attend a lunch concert in the Bethaniën monastery and enjoy a delicious meal afterwards.

Renzo's
A slightly crowded restaurant near Museumplein, serving vegetarian and meat dishes from a wide selection on the counter. They do excellent take-away food, from very tasty sandwiches made to order, to oven baked pasta meals or fish salads. You can choose from the 13 home-made fresh pasta sauces on display, including gorgonzola or clams. They also have risotto, couscous and quiches in plentiful supply. For sandwiches, try their sunflower seed, maize breads or pain de campagnes with goats or cows cheeses from around the world. Sip freshly squeezed fruit juices or some chilled wine and indulge in a tiramisu dessert or some chocolate mousse. A good place to linger over Sunday lunch. You even might find a place to sit on their benches outside.
