Although we love 100% vegan restaurants at Green Amsterdam, sometimes it’s just easier to drag your non-vegan company to a restaurant that serves delicious vegan meals as well as non-vegan meals. Soil of Amsterdam is that kind of restaurant. Their menu is plant-centric, meaning dishes are 100% vegan but can be extended with animal derived products. Soil of Amsterdam thrives for a sustainable menu which is good for your health and the planet.
Hooray! Amsterdam has a new vegan ánd gluten-free burger bar on the westside of town called Vurger! Located in the vibrant neighbourhood De Baarsjes, this spot might be an old familiar place for bio fast food lovers, since the new burger bar replaced the ‘Bio Snackbar’ previously located at Jan van Galenstraat 78.
A 2-course vegan dinner between €7-10 euros in Amsterdam? Sounds too good to be true, right? Well, at De Peper it really ís true! Volunteers run this non-profit cafe, which is located at OT301, the alternative hang out for late night dance sessions and non-commercial movies on the Overtoom in Amsterdam Oud-West.
Good news, vegan friends! There’s a new vegan snack spot in town 😀 Yesterday Kebabi served on a Pita 3.0 opened its doors for all you hungry kebab lovers. Of course Green Amsterdam couldn’t wait to taste this plant based Kebabi and rushed to the opening at the Overtoom.
Most vegans have the urge to eat some junk food every now and then, just like normal people 😀 Luckily we have two, almost three, Vegan Junkfood Bars in Amsterdam serving a 100% plant based snack menu.
The 100% plant based Meatless District in Amsterdam West and South is ironically inspired on the Meatpacking District. This area in New York thanks its name to the many slaughterhouses that used to be located there, though nowadays it’s a hip and happening hood for trendy bars and clubs. The Meatless District succeeded to implement this ambience in their joint; an industrial, modern and spacious interior with an open kitchen and bar in the middle, completely fading out the old dusty image of veganism.
So you are in Amsterdam and decided to go out in the town. You start of with some drinks at the red-light district, land in a coffeeshop, have some more drinks in a brown cafe, share some Heinies with the locals, go to a fancy cocktail bar where you zip on a GT, wonder off to a booming club, do a little dance, have some more drinks and…
Vegabond is a vegan friendly whole food store where they serve homemade lunch and sweets. Everything is 100% vegan.

Next to that they sell and serve handmade vegan donuts, bonbons, cakes, rolls, wraps and sandwiches. Everything is served on and packaged in biodegradable material.
A few years ago De Hallen opened in Amsterdam West. It’s a building that used to be a tram remise, built in the 19th century. This tram remise had been empty for a while which is a shame because it’s a beautiful authentic place. Luckily, in 2010 a few initiative takers and people from the neighborhood decided to bring it back to life.
