The Amsterdam has become a gathering spot for locals and visitors alike whether it’s the restaurant’s handsome 16-seat bar, the beautiful dining room with high ceilings and open kitchen, or the sprawling backyard with a pergola-covered patio, there’s a place for everyone. The backyard is Rhinebeck’s hidden oasis during the warm weather months: guests dine al fresco on the patio, meet for drinks around the picnic tables, or gather for a game of bocce. At night, after-dinner drinks are enjoyed around the fire pit, circled with Adirondack chairs and comfy sofas. Located up a flight of stairs reveals The Dutchess Room, a beautiful space specifically created to host private events from 12-40 guests for a seated dinner or up to 55 for a cocktail reception. It's the perfect place in Rhinebeck for small weddings, rehearsal dinners, bridal/baby showers, birthdays and anniversaries.
