    Great hot dog selection and with a vegan option. Parmesan fries with Mayo was outstanding, great place, comfortable and decent price!

    This is a little stand in the middle of the street. They serve a delicious, crispy kibbeling…read more(fried cod). You can also try their raw herring with onions. I am not the biggest herring fan, but it was worth a first try. It tastes kind of like sushi fish with onions. Most of their seafood items can be served on a bun as a sandwich. As far as Dutch snacks go, this is a good stop for local seafood bites.

    This place is ALL OVER social media, but is it worth the hype? Absolutely…read more We stopped here in October 2025, after an already filling late lunch. But we knew we had to try it, and life is short. It is a tiny stand located along a central canal in the heart of the city. Business is hopping here. We got the picked herring and kibbeling, which are the main staples here. The pickled herring was, well, something you either love or don't. It has somewhat of a gelatinous texture that can be off-putting, but when you take a bite with the sides of sweet pickles and onions, it shines. The Kibbeling was out of this world. Perfectly fried with a crunchy batter that had a hint of, hmmm, curry, maybe. It was amazing. Although the batter was thick and tasty, it didn't outdo the delicious cod. The staff here was friendly, and having this Dutch food along a canal in Amsterdam made for a memorable experience. There are plenty of places to sit near the stand - enjoy this tasty food and watch the world go by.

    Foodhallen is a tough place to actually make a decision at but thanks to some fully loaded hot dogs…read moreon pretzel buns, Bulls and Dogs demanded I give them money. This place was super packed this afternoon when we visited and the single employee working was definitely having a busy day, but she was banging out orders fast and her effort was greatly appreciated. The menu here has maybe ten or so fully loaded hot dogs to try and I settled on going with "The Luxurious Dog" which was a pork wiener, mushrooms, truffle mayo, and roasted nuts on top for an extra little crunch. This hot dog was absolutely delicious and if I didn't have to fit 50 more places in me in my 3 days here, I probably would have ordered another. Overall, Bulls and Dogs is a fantastic choice for lunch if you are at Foodhallen and a definite recommendation from me. Although I may not return during this trip, I may have to in the future

    So I have this addiction that Yelp helps to enable. I love hot dogs. Whenever I travel somewhere…read more- I make it a point to look for hot dogs. While in Amsterdam on business, I was able to find Bulls and Dogs near my hotel. Upon arrival, I found that this place is in a food hall. As I searched for Bulls and Dogs, my interest was piqued with other options. I saw noodles, chicken, sushi, desserts, and more. I was on a mission, though. I finally located the local hot dog for which I made the trip. I ordered the classic dog. At first glance, the dog was like the passenger side mirror on a car. Objects are closer than they appear. My dog was a pork dog with a pretzel bun. They default to onion crisps and ketchup (don't revoke my hot dog card - I did not in any way shape or form ask for ketchup -- I know in Chicago I would get dis-barred.) The dog itself was good - it came out hot and was made to order. Maybe I am too instilled in my religious hot dog beliefs - I really couldn't get past the ketchup. While it was good, it did not wow me. I didn't save room for a different dog so I will have to come back and try other options. Overall, solid pick with this place.

The space is quaint, cozy, and feels like stepping straight into a classic Dutch living room. If it's your first time or you just want a bit of everything, the stamppot combination plate is unbeatable. Getting to sample all three traditional mashes--hutspot, boerenkool, and zuurkool--paired with a juicy smoked sausage or traditional Dutch meatball is pure comfort on a plate. The Erwtensoep (Dutch pea soup) served with rye bread and smoked bacon is rich, thick, and incredible on a cool afternoon. Start off with the bitterballen or Dutch shrimp croquettes to share while you wait. Service is super friendly, welcoming, and effortlessly switches between languages without missing a beat. Because the dining room is small and intimate, it fills up remarkably fast--booking a table online in advance is essential, especially if you're aiming for dinner. A total gem for proper, unpretentious Dutch cuisine!

And despite ALL of our meals in Amsterdam being excellent, this one may have been the best. We wanted to try Dutch food, not totally knowing what to expect and were blown away by the combination of flavors and textures we consumed. We started with the pickled herring which was served with onions and pickles- fresh yet bold! I'm still thinking about those little fishies weeks later. Then we each had the sampler-ish plates (I forget what it was called). Hers was the vegetarian version and mine was with sausage. There were 3 kinds of essentially mashed potatoes with veggies mixed in: 1 with spinach I think, 1 with carrots, and 1 with sauerkraut. Mine came with a delightfully rich gravy and my moms came with some kind of lighter yellow sauce (I think mustard based). We tried these same dishes at other Dutch restaurants during our stay, but nothing beat The Pantry. The service in this quaint and cozy spot was also excellent!

    For a fast, affordable lunch while you're hangin' around the Museum Quarter, there's Lunch Kiosk…read more In between museum-hopping I needed a quick snack and found Lunch Kiosk while I was walking around, as it's located right in the center of all the museums. Lunch Kiosk is an outdoor stand where you order at the counter and take a seat at one of the outdoor tables nearby. Based off the menu, Lunch Kiosk seemed to be known for their various hot dogs with different toppings, so I ordered a hot dog with sauerkraut and fried onion. I think I would've liked the hot dog better had it been more simplified, as two of the elements of the hot dog were overbearing. The bun of the hot dog had a similar texture to a baguette, so it was super thick and hard to take a bite with the hot dog, which was unfortunate because the star of the meal was actually quite good. The hot dog tasted more like a kielbasa, so it had great, smoky flavor and was a thick sausage. But you can't taste much of it when the bun that's holding it is so much. Same with the fried onion. The fried onion should've really been more of a garnish, just to add some crunch with the finishing bite. But it was heavily topped on, so distracted from the sausage. I ended up tearing off most of the bread, to enjoy what I liked most about it - the sausage and sauerkraut. it's great that Lunch Kiosk is available for museum patrons and visitors of the area, especially when you have a full day of sightseeing in between the many museums. It offers food that's quick and cheap; but with that said, I find that more than anything Lunch Kiosk is convenient above anything else.
