How to Book Flore, Amsterdam (2026)
Published · Updated
Flore is the two-Michelin-star and Green-star room inside Hotel De L'Europe on the Amstel, where Bas van Kranen cooks a dairy-free, micro-seasonal menu rooted in the Dutch landscape. It reopened in spring 2026 after a refit, and the booking runs through SevenRooms. Here is how the calendar works.
Bas van Kranen's two-star, dairy-free room reopened in 2026 and books on SevenRooms. Reserve weeks out for a milestone.
Flore is a two-star restaurant with a Michelin Green star for sustainability, set inside Hotel De L'Europe at Nieuwe Doelenstraat near the Amstel in central Amsterdam. Bas van Kranen runs a conscious, dairy-free kitchen built on biodynamic growers and Dutch micro-seasons, and the room is small, with around eleven tables. It reopened in spring 2026 after a renovation, so the calendar is fresh. The booking is a genuine plan-ahead exercise, because the room is tiny and runs only four days a week.
How Hard Is Flore to Book?
Hard, because the room is small and the schedule is short. Flore serves Wednesday to Saturday only, closed Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, with around eleven tables, so two stars and a Green star against very limited supply make weekend dinners the squeeze. Friday and Saturday book several weeks out, while a midweek Wednesday or Thursday dinner is the better bet at shorter notice. A two-top is easier than a four-top in such a small room. After the 2026 reopening, demand has been concentrated, so treat it as a several-weeks-ahead booking.
The Platform and the Calendar
Flore books through a SevenRooms widget on its own site at restaurantflore.com, with a direct line on +31 20 531 1619, not OpenTable and not a ticket drop. The calendar runs a few weeks out on a rolling window. Because the room is small, prime weekend slots go first, so book as soon as your date is set. If a weekend is gone, the cancellation-refresh tactic works on SevenRooms: check in the days before, when held tables are released back into the calendar.
What You Are Actually Booking
A single seasonal tasting menu, entirely dairy-free, that opens with a welcome in the kitchen and an introduction to the ingredients before you move to the dining room. The Omnivore menu runs around 250 euros per person, with a vegetable-led surprise menu around 225, both built on slowly grown produce, wild herbs and sustainable fish. Wine and non-alcoholic pairings are extra. For the full write-up and scores, read our Flore verdict, and the Amsterdam dining guide maps the alternatives.
Don't bother booking Flore if
You want a quick, flexible dinner or a classic dairy-rich French menu. Flore is a small, four-night-a-week room running a long, single tasting menu with no dairy and a sustainability ethos that shapes the whole meal, and a weekend table needs booking weeks ahead. Diners after a relaxed, last-minute meal should look elsewhere in central Amsterdam, and those set on butter and cream should pick a different kitchen.
Frequently Asked Questions
How hard is it to book Flore?
Hard, mostly because of supply. Flore serves only Wednesday to Saturday and has around eleven tables, so two stars and a Green star against that limited capacity make weekend dinners book several weeks out. A midweek Wednesday or Thursday dinner is easier at shorter notice, and a two-top is simpler than a larger party. For the city's other tough tables, see the hardest reservations in Amsterdam.
