Students as well as many others are always happy to find a cheap place to eat. Amsterdam boasts hundreds of restaurants, and many are actually quite affordable, if you know where to look. If you’re finishing up with a few hours of shopping on the Haarlemmerstraat, have a look at Dulac, located at Haarlemmerstraat 118. If you present your student card, you get a 50% discount on all meals. Heading back into the center for a night out? If you want a tasty cocktail, you can get two for one at Coco’s Outback at Rembrandtsplein/Thorbeckeplein between 10-11pm.

Amsterdam is a great city for exploiting your student status. Use it to your advantage while it lasts!
