Best Amsterdam Terraces

The outdoor terrace at Café ‘t Sluisje (Nieuwendammerdijk 297) is so picture postcard perfect you will find it hard to believe that you´re in Amsterdam not some seaside village. This authentic Dutch café is situated in a 16th century building in a lane of pretty dike houses in Amsterdam Noord (Amsterdam North), and named for one of the city’s oldest sluices. It offers a sun-kissed patio and shady dockside seats - all with the stunning backdrop of sailboats coming and going from Nieuwendam harbor. To get there, take the Nieuwendam ferry, which leaves thrice daily on summertime Sundays from Central Station and stops right by the café.
