It’s getting cold, which means it’s time for… yes, stamppot! The days are getting shorter and darker, and after a busy workday, you’ll want just one thing: a hearty, warm winter dish! Traditionally known as the potato version, but why not try a version with sweet potato or parsnip? Delicious!

9 x The best spots for authentic Dutch vegetable mash in Amsterdam
Stamppot Amsterdam
At Stamppot Amsterdam – the name says it all – they specialise in all kinds of stamppot dishes. It doesn’t get more Dutch than this, as you can imagine. From “hete bliksem” to hutspot, endive, and ‘bare bottoms in the grass’: every fan of Dutch cuisine will find something to love here. And the fun part: you can enjoy a craft beer alongside your meal.

Bistro Berlage
At Bistro Berlage, don’t expect a plate full of stamppot, but instead a sandwich with hutspot for lunch. In addition to unique flavours, Bistro Berlage also has an amazing location, right on Beursplein, right next to the Bijenkorf. The perfect stop during a shopping trip.

Stoop & Stoop
It doesn’t get more Dutch than Stoop & Stoop. Think: pea soup as a starter, followed by a main course of various types of stamppot with meatballs. And for those who don’t like traditional dishes, there’s even stamppot with cheese croquettes. Whether that’s your thing or not is up to you.

‘t Heemelrijck
A truly Dutch experience – that’s what they aim for at ‘t Heemelrijck. You can taste it because not only are the dishes Dutch in origin, but all ingredients are fresh and locally sourced. The menu features seasonal stamppot dishes and classic Dutch stewed meat based on Grandpa’s recipe. This spot has been a hit since 1949 for a reason.
