Want to see the Magere Brug and eat afterwards in central Amsterdam? Plan your own route by the Amstel with LAFFA as a separate food stop.
Start with one identifiable landmark
The national monument register records origins around 1670 and renewal in the old style in 1934 to a design by P. L. Kramer. A familiar silhouette can carry several historical layers. On your own walk, notice how the bridge connects two sides of the Amstel. Then make your own route towards Utrechtsestraat and choose your next food moment.
Build your own walking plan
You can combine the bridge with a walk towards Utrechtsestraat and LAFFA at number 55. Choose an order that fits your starting point. This is LAFFA’s own suggested visit idea, not an official tourism route or a guarantee about the shortest, fastest or most accessible connection.
Leave time for the view
Allow for weather, pedestrians and other people using the area. Do not block passageways to take a picture, and follow signs around works. Your visit need not depend on reproducing the exact camera angle of a photograph you saw before arriving. A flexible stop usually makes the rest of the plan easier.
Choose what to eat afterwards
Browse wraps, bowls and plates in advance. If halal or vegetarian choices matter, read the relevant guide and individual ingredients. Check current visiting hours before coming. Explore dishes here. Order separately on this branch’s Uber Eats page and check prices and availability there.
