Midrange
De Blauwe Hollander
Dutch restaurant with an extensive menu of hearty home cooked dishes like herrings, pea soup and hutspot. Unlike most restaurants in this area, this one gets local diners too, and if it gets crowded enough you may have to share tables. Pancakes served only until 5 PM.
Damsteeg
They specialise in fish dishes, but they also have a wide variety of meat and vegetarian meals to choose from. With bar.
Dimitrij
Offering dozens of interesting sandwiches and salads. Dimitrij is a must for at least one lunch, and it's on a street which is packed with an ever-changing line-up of fun boutiques.
Top end
La Margarita

Reservations accepted.

Pancakes! Amsterdam
Amazing variety of both sweet and savory pancakes. Quaint atmosphere and the street side tables are great to watch people. The only downfall is that street side tables attract too many tourists asking for directions.
