LOWLANDER BOTANICAL BAR & RESTAURANT is my latest local discovery.
It is located across the Amsterdam central station, in the trendy Amsterdam Noord neighborhood, so if you want to escape the touristy areas, that’s the spot!
Lowlander offers a variety of Amsterdam-based beers and even produces its own gin, which is rich in a variety of flavours.
The location offers a stunning view, and your evening can be complemented either with their bites (such as jackfruit fried balls or oyster mushroom snacks) or with a full dinner. The concept is to complement the dishes with seasonal herbs and spices, which gives them this extra taste!
So if you are around Central Station and want to get the free ferry across Ij river, this is the spot!
