Eataly has opened its very first store in the Netherlands, located in Lounge 1 (Schengen area) of Amsterdam Schiphol Airport, bringing the excellence of Italian cuisine to millions of travellers.
Eataly at Schiphol aims to become a lively destination for Italian gastronomy, inviting passengers to discover authentic flavours and high-quality food. Created in partnership with Avolta, the new store combines warm wood tones with vibrant colours to create an inviting atmosphere where travellers can sit, relax, and savour every bite.
At the heart of Eataly Schiphol is a large counter offering freshly baked pizza alla pala, filled croissants, and classic Italian pastries such as the iconic maritozzo. For those in a hurry, a wide range of take-away options is available, including fresh salads, desserts, and refreshing fruit juices.
In addition to its traditional food offering, Eataly brings the Italian aperitivo culture to the airport, with a curated selection of wines and spritz. Coffee lovers will find a dedicated bar serving top-quality Italian coffee, ensuring the perfect start—or end—to any journey. A selection of Italian grocery products is also available, allowing travellers to take home a true taste of Italy.
Andrea Cipolloni, CEO of Eataly Group, commented:“Eataly has always brought Italy to the world through high-quality food. Our partnership with Avolta allows us to reach strategic locations across the globe, expanding our international presence and vision while making Eataly’s cuisine and products accessible to travellers from all countries. Being present in major airports like Schiphol enables us to reach a wide and discerning audience.
