- AlexLeven, United Kingdom81 contributionsBrilliant foodAn incredible spot for brilliant food. So many places to choose from in a chill environment. Food is decently priced, but great to try small portions of lost of different types of food.Visited February 2020Traveled as a coupleWritten February 28, 2020
- Kelley DBaton Rouge, Louisiana53 contributionsFun experience with a lot of good food optionsWe ate here for dinner on our last night in Amsterdam. It's a great place to go as there is a lot of variety of food options and is something for everyone. We ordered food from 3 different food booths to have a sampling. Everything was good. It gets very busy, so finding a table can be difficult. As soon as you see an empty one you'll need to grab it. You may be sitting at a table with people who aren't in your party as well. There is a bar in the middle and they get the drinks out really fast. It's very hot in there. The back section is hotter than the front, so I recommend sitting in the front section.Visited October 2022Written October 24, 2022
- Yas A5 contributionsBest food hall in AmsterdamIf you want to go to a place but you don't know what you want to eat, this is the perfect place to go. They have a variety of food choices, the food is not expensive at all. You don't need reservation and you can go with a lot of friends and spend a great evening. The food is delicious from every restaurant. You can find pitas, burgers, sandwiches, tacos, chicken, sushi and more. I've there twice once with my parents and the last one with my partner and they all loved it.Visited February 2022Written March 3, 2022
- GabriellaLondon, United Kingdom72 contributionsAvoid avoid avoid!!!Over priced, mediocre food and the worst aperol spritz I have ever had.....a small dash of aperol with flat prosecco and flat soda (€9). Do not eat here. Complete waste of time and money.Visited May 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten May 26, 2023
- Jean AAmsterdam, The Netherlands58 contributionsMy goodness, the rudenessI had been waiting to order a drink at the central bar already for some time, but when it was my turn the bartender turned away from me to serve another customer instead. When I politely pointed out that I had been there first, he blatantly refused to take my order because I was standing at a wrong spot. There is no indication at the bar as to where are you supposed to wait in line, and besides this is not a policy at all here. The bartender left an impression of wanting to be rude deliberately as it was not a busy moment at all.Visited May 2023Written May 17, 2023
- Craig&LivSurrey, United Kingdom142 contributionsNo good for gluten freeA really great venue and beautiful building BUT the lack of dietary information, knowledge and ability to order anything if gluten free is shocking in this day and age. No options basically. In a place full of independent eateries, around 20 I would say, and not one able to accommodate, even the butchers/bbq place. DisappointingVisited May 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten May 17, 2023
- gymaggiAmsterdam, The Netherlands68 contributionsBest place to hang out with friendsThis place is always a good choice, especially if you go there with friends. Avoid weekends, just go there during weekdays in the evening, it is buzzy but not too crowded. Perfect choice when you feel like eating a bit of every kind of food. The Vietnamese place and also the pizza are quiet good. Not bad the Spanish one at the entrance and also the Bitterballen'sVisited December 2019Traveled with friendsWritten January 10, 2020

- Robert K56 contributionsGood food, not enough seatingTitle says it all. Came for dinner on a Monday night around 8-8:30 PM. Walked around for a good 30 minutes looking for a table. People do linger so if you go during peak times be prepared to wait for a table. Otherwise the food was good. There was 4 of us. Had the Pizza, tacos, sushi and other dish. The only one that was eh was the sushi. Everything else was good.Visited March 2023Traveled with familyWritten April 6, 2023
- turasoir1130 contributionsGreat food choice.Had the falafel pitta from Pita and partner has mini tacos. Both excellent. Great buzzing atmosphere at lunchtime. Easy enough to get a seat. Very strong smell of fried fish everywhere which was spoiling the aromas of the other food offerings. Management needs to take steps to prevent this.Visited September 2022Traveled as a coupleWritten September 26, 2022

An amazing collection of counters to choose the world on a plate. Masses of choice with food & drink types. A great use of an old tram depot - wonderfully repurposed.
Just so expensive though.

Foodhallen is a little bit far from Amsterdams tourist center, but it is worth the detour. There are LOADS OF OPTIONS!! You can order from different food stalls and have a great overall meal. I loved the place and cannot wait to go back!!

Was recommended by Bing AI, checked reviews, dragged my poor wife an hour in cold, nut wow! it was worth it, food was brilliant, almost too many choices. Took 2 laps to decide, 1 fancy hot dog and a bucket of onion rings and a bucket of barbecue meatballs, everything prepared quickly and smelled and tasted amazingly.
Will return if we ever visit Amsterdam again
