About Noa

Hidden beneath the iconic Beurs van Berlage, in what was once a bicycle cellar, a completely new nightlife experience will open this autumn in the heart of Amsterdam: Noa. An exclusive restaurant-bar-club where music, atmosphere, gastronomy, and design come together.Noa is located in a stunning space with no fewer than 23 monumental arches, a historic location where even the King and Queen were married. During dinner, we serve refined Japanese bites, prepared by you, our culinary sushi chef. Later in the evening, we effortlessly transition into a vibe of late-night drinks, great artists, and dancing until the early hours (on weekends).
