Oostpoort Restaurants

Located in the borough of Amsterdam-Oost, this area used to be home to the Oostergasfabriek—the Eastern Gas Factory. Today, the industrial vibe is in the rear view, as multiple buildings were removed to make way for a new neighborhood and an influx of fresh attractions. From raved-about bagels on the causal side, to refined Turkish cuisine, there is a wide range of eateries despite the relatively small size of this district. Don’t miss simple but sophisticated Italian, or cozy pubs that harken back to the grittier history of the area, all the while offering a distinctly modern spin.
