About
In the heart of De Pijp, a striking Amsterdam School building that once served the neighbourhood as a public bathhouse — and later gained fame as a jazz café — has been reborn as Badcuyp, a restaurant and genuine local gathering place. The architecture retains its original character, while inside, a generous dining room with intimate seating nooks strikes a balance between openness and warmth.
Chef Joep Hermans centres the kitchen around live fire and a wood-fired oven, turning out dishes meant to be shared at the table. The wine list runs to more than five hundred references, giving the evening real depth beyond the plate.
Gault&Millau awards Badcuyp a score of 12.5/20, and 259 Google reviewers back that up with a 4.7 out of 5 — a combination that speaks to consistent, crowd-pleasing quality in one of Amsterdam's most spirited neighbourhoods.
Book your table at Badcuyp and let De Pijp's most storied dining room do the rest.
