Blik Amsterdam

Blik Amsterdam is a contemporary bistro and bar on Reguliersdwarsstraat in the Centrum district of Amsterdam, a short walk from Rembrandtplein and the canal belt, where a warm, stylish interior opens onto a sheltered French courtyard garden.

The kitchen builds on local and regional produce while drawing on flavours from further afield, applying classical technique in a contemporary way, and the bar is led by a sommelier-curated wine list — a combination that suits incentive dinners and smaller corporate group programmes.

The French courtyard garden seats around 100 guests for a seated dinner and holds up to 150 for a walking dinner, while the ground floor seats around 45 and takes about 90 standing, and the first floor seats around 40 and takes about 80 standing.

The first floor also holds a semi-private room with its own bar and a television screen, used for board meetings, business drinks and presentations, and the restaurant can also be hired exclusively for a single group.
