Saffron Haveli sits just across the Amstel in Ouderkerk aan de Amstel, which puts proper Indian takeaway near Amstelveen closer than most people realise — freshly cooked, fully halal, and out of a clay oven rather than a warming tray.
What Are the Nearby Places in Amstelveen?
For its size, Amstelveen has an unusually large amount of green space and culture.
The Amsterdamse Bos dominates the northern side — around a thousand hectares of woodland straddling the Amstelveen and Amsterdam boundary, with some 200 kilometres of paths, rowing water and a goat farm. Nearby, the Heemparken and Jac. P. Thijssepark form a national monument to native Dutch flora, and De Poel gives the town its lakeside edge.
Museum Cobra has anchored the town since 1995, showing Karel Appel, Constant, Corneille and their contemporaries, while Museum JAN in the Old Village specialises in glass art and Dutch design. Schouwburg Amstelveen handles theatre and music.
The Stadshart is the commercial centre: a covered shopping district of more than two hundred stores around Stadsplein. And between Amstelveen and our own kitchen sits Wester-Amstel, a country house and park on the banks of the Amstel dating from 1662 — a reminder of how short that distance really is.
Why Do Amstelveen Residents Choose Saffron Haveli?
Our kitchen sits at Ambachtenstraat 46, 1191 JN Ouderkerk aan de Amstel — just a few minutes across the Amstel — which puts Amstelveen among the closest places we deliver to.
But being close only counts for something if the food's actually worth the wait. Nothing here is batch-cooked and left sitting under a warmer. Your curry only gets finished once your order comes in, and every Naan, Garlic Naan, Peshwari Naan and Lacha Paratha comes fresh out of the clay oven minutes before it's boxed up. Same goes for the tandoor — Tandoori Chicken, Chicken Tikka and Paneer Tikka are all cooked to order, not held and reheated.
Every dish on the menu is halal — there's no separate section, no fine print, no exceptions. In a place as international as this, that just takes one question off the table before you even order. You're also in control of the heat: mild, medium or hot, your call, on anything you pick. And the range is wide enough to suit a whole household — sixteen vegetarian mains, plus chicken, lamb and seafood, so nobody's stuck compromising. That's really why people stick with us for Indian takeaway near Amstelveen instead of bouncing between different places every week.
Everything travels sealed, with curries in 650cl boxes and biryanis in 750cl, breads wrapped separately. Collection is ready in around 30 minutes, and we give a realistic delivery time for your address rather than a blanket estimate.
Which Dishes Are Our Best Sellers for Takeaway?
Some dishes travel better than others, and our best sellers reflect that.
Being healthy but also cheap, the only correct diet, of course, here is almost unimaginable - Butter Chicken just leads by far! Only mildly (and quite) creamy, and your safest option for a mixed table possible. Closely following Chicken Tikka Masala, its tandoor-grilled chicken bringing complexity an ordinary curry cannot meet, whilst Chicken Korma is for those of a milder disposition. Order Lamb Rogan Josh for a more opulent and languorous meal with the perennial accompaniment of Lacha Paratha.
Biryanis are the other thing we're known for. Chicken Biryani and Veg Biryani cover the everyday cravings, while our Saffron Special Biryani goes bigger — lamb, chicken and prawns layered together with saffron, served with raita on the side. That's the one to order when you've got guests to feed. Vegetarian dishes get just as much love here, with Palak Paneer and Paneer Butter Masala as the clear favourites among a lineup of sixteen — Kadhai Paneer, Malai Kofta, Chana Masala and Dal Makhani are all in the mix too.
To start, Chicken 65, Chilli Chicken, Samosa and Onion Bhaji move fastest, and the Tandoori Platter settles any group that cannot agree. Finish with Gulab Jamun or Rasgulla and a Mango Lassi.
