Amsterdam Restaurant Gili Trawangan

A Dutch-inspired all-day dining destination

Looking for a new favourite breakfast or brunch spot in Gili Trawangan? Amsterdam Restaurant brings a relaxed café-style dining concept to the centre of the island, combining European influences, international flavours and Indonesian ingredients with a distinctly laid-back island atmosphere.

Set within a coconut garden, the restaurant offers both covered and outdoor terrace dining. Natural timber and rattan details create a rustic setting that feels connected to its tropical surroundings.

Away from the busiest parts of the main beach strip, Amsterdam Restaurant offers a quieter place to enjoy a morning coffee, a leisurely brunch or an all-day meal.

Create your own breakfast and lunch

One of the defining features of Amsterdam Restaurant is its customisable dining concept. Guests can mix and match dishes from the menu, creating their own breakfast, lunch or dinner experience.

The concept is particularly suited to couples and groups who want to share several dishes rather than order a traditional individual meal. Amsterdam Restaurant’s official concept centres on creating and sharing meals throughout the day, with many ingredients locally sourced and many menu items made in-house.

Breakfast options include fluffy pancakes, eggs prepared in different styles, bread, fresh fruit salads and yoghurt bowls.

Coffee is also an important part of the experience, with espresso, flat whites, lattes and cappuccinos available alongside teas, juices and smoothies. The restaurant also highlights its signature coffee offering and Dutch-inspired stroopwafel creations.

International food with European and Indonesian influences

Amsterdam Restaurant’s menu brings together a wide variety of flavours.

Guests can begin with breads and dips or starters such as nachos, bruschetta and beef carpaccio. More substantial dishes include satay, Chicken Piri Piri, BBQ pork spare ribs and mixed grill options.

Vegetarian diners also have a range of choices, including a mixed bean burger, falafel and other plant-based dishes.

The menu reflects Amsterdam Restaurant’s broader approach to international and European-inspired food while incorporating locally sourced ingredients and Indonesian influences. The restaurant describes its philosophy as bringing European cuisine and Dutch hospitality to the Indonesian islands.

A Dutch-inspired sweet finish

The Dutch connection is particularly visible in the dessert selection.

A traditional Dutch stroopwafel is available alongside sweet options such as apple crumble. These desserts can provide a classic finish after a shared lunch or dinner.

The drinks selection continues well beyond coffee, with fresh juices and smoothies available during the day and beer, wine and cocktails for guests staying later into the evening.

From morning coffee to dinner

Amsterdam Restaurant is designed as an all-day dining destination rather than simply a breakfast café.

Guests can stop by for a quick coffee, settle in for brunch, create a customised lunch or return for dinner. The restaurant is open daily from 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.

With its mix-and-match menu, European and international flavours, Dutch-inspired touches and relaxed coconut garden setting, Amsterdam Restaurant offers a flexible dining experience for visitors and residents of Gili Trawangan.
