Adam Toren is a new hotspot. You can go swing on top of Amsterdam. The building has also two restaurants. One is called Moon, which offers a more high standard food. The restaurant itself slowly makes a complete 360 turns each hour which gives you a different view all night. The other restaurant is called Madam and also offers very nice food in a more relaxed but very nice atmosphere. Make sure you book in advance. adamtoren.nl

This post-industrial spot near the NDSM Wharf offers one of the best panoramic views of the River IJ and its banks, stretching from the Cruise Terminal to the Silodam and beyond. Both the view and the organic delights inside attract an inclusive crowd from young and hip creatives to older locals keen to catch an alternative view of the city. www.iamsterdam.com/en/see-and-do/eating-and-drinking/bar-and-cafe-listing/pllek
