The table of the city
Bouillon d’ is a Dutch family of restaurants where French cuisine meets the character of the city. Inspired by the French dining culture of the nineteenth century, we bring together classic French dishes, accessible prices, efficient service and genuine hospitality in a lively setting. A place where everyone takes a seat at the table, from plumbers to stockbrokers, from locals to curious tourists. At Bouillon d’Amsterdam, we give this tradition our own twist, right in the historic heart of the city, at Die Port van Cleve.
Then and now
Behind Dam Square, on the Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal, lies a place where Amsterdammers have gathered for centuries. Once the De Hooiberg brewery, later the Die Port van Cleve beer hall, now an icon where history and new energy meet. The heritage that made De Poort great - shared tables, good food, and a place for everyone, lives on today in Bouillon d’Amsterdam.
