Bistronomie d’Amsterdam

French cuisine with an Amsterdam spirit

V&A Bar • Bistro is a modern French bistro located along the Prinsengracht in the Jordaan, where classic French cuisine, beautiful wines and the energy of Amsterdam come together.

The atmosphere of a Parisian bistro, reimagined for Amsterdam: vibrant, welcoming and relaxed, with a strong focus on flavour, hospitality and evenings that naturally stretch late into the night. Set within a monumental corner building overlooking the canals, V&A brings the feeling of a contemporary French bistro to the heart of Amsterdam.

The right spot for lunch, dinner, shared dining, great wines and the effortless elegance of bistronomie.

At V&A, we bring French bistronomie to Amsterdam through classic flavours, seasonal ingredients and the atmosphere of a true canal-side bistro.

Le Menu

Apéritifs • Petits Plats • Grands Plats

The menu at V&A is inspired by the way modern French bistros are enjoyed today.

Begin with l’Apéritif: small bites paired with champagne, a spritz or a beautiful glass of wine. Continue with several Petits Plats to share together, or choose one of the Grands Plats as a more substantial course.

From a spontaneous glass of wine at the bar to a long evening of shared dining — V&A is all about freedom at the table and relaxed gastronomy.

Season & Wine

Seasonal ingredients inspired by French classics

Our kitchen moves with the rhythm of the seasons. We work as much as possible with fresh ingredients sourced from smaller producers, trusted suppliers and farmers who value craftsmanship and quality above all else.

Alongside the kitchen, wine plays an essential role within the V&A experience. Our extensive wine list features carefully selected French and European wines, ranging from renowned houses to smaller producers full of character.
