The best cocktail bars Amsterdam

A place where you can eat the best burgers in town (with Aberdeen Angus beef, among others...) since 2012, in the heart of Amsterdam's biggest market. Sure, it may look like a restaurant at first glance, but that's not why we're here (only). In fact, this butcher has a well-kept secret: at the back of the room hides an exclusive bar, which can be accessed by ringing the bell and giving the password communicated when booking. You can make your reservation on their website. We'll say no more... A pleasant evening guaranteed!

Welcome to one of Amsterdam's smallest bars! In just a few years, Vesper has become a firm fixture on Amsterdam's nightlife scene, just a stone's throw from the Haarlemmerdijk. Here, you can enjoy excellent cocktails, skilfully prepared. Go for the Fin Fizz, made with gin, pine liqueur, cucumber and rosemary... Alternatively, the Smoke... stoned is prepared with mezcal and juniper. The classy, sexy setting is reminiscent of James Bond, and it's no coincidence that the place is named after the only woman 007 ever really loved.

A few steps from the red light district, opposite the emblematic Nieuwmarkt square, this is a place to discover! Elegant cocktail-bar, speakeasy, cabinet of curiosities, one would not know how to describe it. Located in a 17th century house, elegantly furnished and full of all kinds of decorative objects, the atmosphere is intimate and warm. The team, led by Rachel and Pepijn, is passionate and will be happy to advise you on the choice of (excellent) cocktails.
