Within Amsterdam

Lost in Amsterdam Lounge Cafe & Cocktail Bar

Cocktail bar

🫤 The milkshake was good, but for being €15.05 and allegedly “alcoholic” it was very weak. The shisha is way over priced, at €20 euro with a small selection of flavours an additional €3.50 euro for refill coals. The music was (in my opinion) too loud and nothing to write home about but the staff was v...

Crazy Pianos

Restaurant

🫤 When entering the bar we were met with a racist comment from the security guy “we have issues with people like you” only because we came from Belgium. The music was okayish. The piano part was quite short. Plenty of space to dance. After the piano part there was a DJ with a mix of new and old music....

Steam Scheveningen

Bar & grill

👍👍 My wife and I came here while visiting Den Haag on an anniversary trip. The staff went above and beyond to make our dinner special. We ordered the fingerling ribs and salmon-both were delicious. We also ordered the desert sampler and they brought it out with a sparkler and the number 10 written in c...

Café Restaurant De Zwarte Ruiter

Restaurant

😠 Objectively watched somebody having the worst avocado sandwich in history here. Personel didn't even take my lunch partner seriously. No apologies or discounts whatsoever. Very disappointing.

dB's oefenstudio's, concertzaal & muziekcafé

Live music bar

👍👍 One of the best venues I've ever been. Small place, good acoustics, excellent beer options and always bringing amazing bands to play there.

Café Tilt!

Diner

😐 Cool place, great jazz sessions but be aware if you want to pay separately - which might be legit if you are there with 5 friends and very different orders - the bartender with the man bun at the bar might be pissed and go nasty. Even on a relatively lazy Sunday afternoon and even if it’s a usual th...

Swing Gouda

Restaurant

👍 Nice and spacious restaurante right in the core of Gouda. The service is friendly and fast. The menu is short but with some very dutch option. Nice to warm a rainy cold afternoon. The Gouda cheese soup is very savory and worth the try.

De Vrienden Utrecht

Restaurant

🫤 Only go here when there is no other option left. The music is terrible, it stinks and its infested by drunk, young students. The only good thing about it is that they are open until quite late on (I think) every day of the week.

Happen & Tappen bij 't Scheepje

Restaurant

👍 We had a very tasteful lunch on our bike trip near Utrecht. 't Scheepje is located next to a bike lane, between a farm and a small river. Can it be more picturesque? However the place isn't cheap our meals were stunning to look at and we enjoyed them very much. The only other downside is the proximi...

Holy Moly Club

Restaurant

😠 After reading most comments here, I was looking forward to having a good time here! Turns out this is NOT a very welcoming place for people of colour. Dutch racism at a more refined level. And it’s funny how they are quick to take our money but then treat us differently! I think you don’t deserve b...

Muziekcafé De Paap

Live music bar

😠 This is the first bar I have seen in the Netherlands that charges for visiting toilet. No matter if you had a drink or not. Just 0.30 euro, but isn't it ridiculous? You should be free to drink as much as you want, not thinking if you have any small change left to pay for the toilet. I know you need...

De Nieuwe Anita

Live music bar

👍👍 This hidden gem in Amsterdam is a locals best kept secret bar & party place. I loved the venue and the vibe. The drinks are competitively priced so you'd enjoy your night drinking. The music is great for dancing and the lower floor is used for live performances & live bands. Cannot wait to party her...

Willem Twee poppodium
