FAQs

the things people ask us most about the food, brunch and booking.

How does ordering work?

it's made for sharing. order a few plates for the table and graze, Mexican style. or let us take the wheel: the Chef's Choice (€44 p.p., min 2) is our take on modern Mexican, and the Full Madre Experience (€58 p.p., min 2) is a multi-course immersion in the whole menu.

Do you do brunch?

yes, saturdays and sundays from 12:00 to 16:00. a fully plant-based Mexican brunch in the Jordaan. it's popular, so book ahead.

Is the food very spicy?

there's warmth and depth rather than blow-your-head-off heat. want more fire? add our spicy salsas, €2.50 each or €6 for a trio.

Do I need to reserve?

we'd book ahead for dinner and weekend brunch to be safe. we always keep a few tables free for walk-ins.

I have a gluten or nut allergy. Can I eat at MADRE?

tell us and we'll guide you through it. dishes containing gluten or nuts are marked on the menu. one honest note: our kitchen works with both gluten and nuts, so we can't fully rule out cross contamination. if your allergy is severe, let us know and we'll talk it through before you order.

Can you host groups or private events?

absolutely. birthdays, babyshowers, company dinners, a long table of your favourite people, up to 120 of them. see our groups & events page.

Where are you and when are you open?

Westerstraat 186 BG, in the Jordaan, Amsterdam. open seven days a week, dinner every evening, brunch saturdays and sundays from 12:00 to 16:00.

Will meat-eaters enjoy it too?

honestly, most people don't even notice. everything we serve is vegetarian and most of it is vegan, no meat, no fish, ever, but it's built around flavour first. even the dishes that taste like they shouldn't be, like our birria quesatacos made with re-defined 3D-printed "pork" or our mushroom carnitas, are completely plant-based, and meat-eaters tend to leave as the biggest fans.
