De Willem
71-75
Focus on staff well-being
De Willem is a dining venue in a spectacular location at the old city gates of Amsterdam. It serves small and medium-sized dishes to share that are made in a kitchen that to a large extent uses local ingredients in season. The wine list is long, featuring many new, fun labels; anyone looking for natural wines will find their fill. At De Willem, you can also order something to drink after lunch and stay to watch the passers-by.
