Restaurant Freud is a beloved Mediterranean-inspired restaurant in Amsterdam-West, where exceptional hospitality and social impact go hand in hand. Since opening in 2006, the restaurant has combined delicious food with profound attention for people: men and women facing mental health challenges work beside skilled chefs, crafting and serving dishes they take genuine pride in.
The playful, diverse menu is rooted in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern flavours — think steak tartare, classic fish soup, and rotating seasonal specials — curated every season by passionate chefs who build on their own tastes and experiences. Every week, about 80 participants are guided lovingly through culinary routines, supporting their journey back to a structured life and a brighter future.
Freud also offers catering services for lunches and receptions, bringing their heartfelt service and sense of care to clients beyond the restaurant space. The atmosphere is consistently praised by both locals and visitors: relaxed, friendly, and meaningful, with outstanding food and an especially attentive team.
Every visit to Restaurant Freud connects you with a place where good food and meaningful opportunities truly come together.
