Ijver: Restaurant in NDSM, Amsterdam

Serves foodTerraceFamily-friendly

IJver is a restaurant and beer café in a converted 100-year-old ship shed at the NDSM in Amsterdam Noord. You go for a long lunch, a beer from one of 20 taps, or dinner on a terrace among the street art. The kitchen works through the day, from breakfast and lunch to dinner and drinks snacks, with seasonal cooking that leans French. Beer is the other half of the business: alongside the taps, which include an alcohol-free option, a fridge wall holds around 50 bottled beers. There is a kids' menu too. Two terraces give you a choice of weather: a covered, heated one that sits between inside and out, and a sunny open one. Seven rooms can be hired, from the 56 square metre De Boeg for 40 people up to events for more than 200. The ferry from behind Centraal brings you to NDSM.
