Chateau Amsterdam

In Amsterdam Noord on the Johan van Hasseltweg, Chateau Amsterdam is no ordinary wine bar — it's an urban winery that actually makes wine on-site, in close collaboration with grape growers across Europe. You drink modern and classic wines right at the source.

The space is trendy and industrial, set among the workshops and creative businesses of the Hamerkwartier, and a visit can pair tastings with the story of how city wine is made. It's a distinctive, contemporary take on a wine bar.

What to expect

Expect something genuinely different — wine made metres from where you drink it, an industrial-chic room, and staff who can talk you through the winemaking. It's relaxed and a little off the beaten track, which is part of the appeal.

Good to know

It's a good reason to cross the IJ into Noord, reachable by ferry and a short ride or walk. Check ahead for tastings and events, which run alongside the regular bar and are the best way to see the winery in action.
