Family Sundays at Chateau Amsterdam
Chateau Amsterdam is one of our favorites when it comes to wine. Why? Because it was born and raised in Amsterdam, but is also matured and bottled here, with grapes that come strictly from Europe. This real one urban winery really belongs to the special category (beautiful wines). Besides the fact that you can buy these wines for home use (recently available at Albert Heijn), they also have a beautiful location in Amsterdam-Noord, where you can drink the wines during drinks or dinner.

They do a lot more fun things. One of those things is Family sundays, yes, every Sunday you can go to Chateau for a special menu. Fun for mom and dad, but twice as much fun for the little ones. Quality time - check!
Chateau Amsterdam is truly a wine paradise. We have written about them before, but here is a brief summary: founded by father and son, but now grown into a true oasis for wine lovers. With a lovely bar and a delicious restaurant. And let's not forget the spacious terrace! At the location where they make and bottle the wines, you can also take wonderful guided tours (tour & tasting) or enjoy a fun tasting: drinking wine, socializing, and each wine is explained. They have a lot more to offer, did someone say get married? You just have to do that our previous article about Chateau .
Do you live in Amsterdam? Then just take the ferry! But it is also easy to reach by car: just exit the ring and you will be there in no time. Parking? There is still plenty of room for that in the North. Ideal, right? And it is also a breeze with public transport. With the North-South line (metro 52) you get off at Noorderpark, and after a short 10-minute walk you are already there.
Now back to that wonderful Sunday. Going out with the family, which can sometimes be difficult, a nice place where the kids can do their thing without the place being called 'the playground'. Chateau is perfect because there is a lot of space both inside and outside. The terrace is an ideal place for the children to play outside. They can fish from the fountain and chalk on the terrace. And even if the weather isn't great, there are plenty of games to play indoors. So enough entertainment! Even grandpa and grandma can sit down to a game of goose plate and a glass of wine, of course. By the way, everyone is welcome, with or without kids, because Chateau Amsterdam is fun for everyone.
I think it was already clear that there are tasty wines on the menu. But for the children there is a special pizza menu. Pizza is usually a hit among little ones, but at Chateau they can also put together their own pizza with a coloring page. How nice is that?
To watch the grown-ups there are delicious homemade pastas to choose from (or something else from the a la carte menu). How about tagliatelle with beef ragú and saffron butter? Or a delicious spaghetti with cockles. If your child is not a fan of pizza, there is also a delicious spaghetti Bolognese on the menu.
The children's menu also has a friendly price of 15 euros, including the self-composed pizza, a refreshing lemonade and an ice cream to complete the evening (or afternoon).
Keep a close eye on Chateau, because they have nice special editions on Mother's Day, Father's Day, Easter and other festive days. You can think of a 3-course menu, but also live performances. What a party! The same festive pizza menu applies to the kids.
Also nice to know: children's parties are more than welcome! Maybe all moms and dads would like to come along too. Wink!
