Cornerstore is a bar and restaurant from the Cafe Binnenvisser team with a heavy focus on music – the building used to be a studio among other things. The best seats are the high stools up at the counter in front of the DJ booth, with its vintage speakers and wall of records. From the kitchen there’s Asian-inspired small plates like green Sichuan mussels; aubergine, soy and macadamia; cold sesame noodles with kohlrabi; and lotus root pickles. And to drink there’s a list of sakes and excellent natural wines. Great food, drinks, and atmosphere make Cornerstore one of our Amsterdam faves.
