Market

Ten Katemarkt

One of Amsterdam's most authentic neighborhood markets, stretching along Ten Katestraat in Oud-West. It has been running since 1908 and serves the local community rather than tourists, which means the prices are real, the produce is fresh, and the vendors know their regulars by name. The market reflects the multicultural makeup of Oud-West, with stalls selling Turkish bread, Surinamese vegetables, Moroccan spices, and Dutch cheese side by side. The food stalls are the highlight. The Surinamese roti near Kinkerstraat is some of the best in Amsterdam. The fish stall does excellent kibbeling (battered fried cod) with garlic sauce. The cheese vendors will let you taste before buying, and the bread stalls bake fresh that morning. It's smaller and less overwhelming than Albert Cuyp Market, which makes it easier to browse without feeling like you're in a tourist funnel. The market runs Monday through Saturday. Saturday morning is the liveliest, when the Foodhallen indoor food court (a 2-minute walk on Bellamyplein) is also open and you can combine the two. Ten Katemarkt is surrounded by good everyday shops and the neighborhood feel of Oud-West, which is rapidly becoming one of Amsterdam's most interesting residential areas. This is where Amsterdammers actually shop. No tulip magnets, no wooden clogs, just good produce and honest prices.
