    Curry sandwich

    Great afternoon views of the city with plenty of seating. Staff were accommodating of our large group. Food is decent but portions are on the smaller end.

    Amazing views and amazing food. Surprisingly quick service as well. Menus in Dutch and English. Will be coming back.

    The view is great here! From the shopping mall ground level take the elevator all the way to the top. We got a weekday morning reservation at the lounge chairs section. I was worried it would be hard to eat our food, but it turns out to be just fine and comfortable. I got the blueberry pancakes and hubby and got the eggplant parmigiana. It's a nice way to unwind and enjoy the view with some delicious brunch. One of our meals we upgraded to the breakfast option so that it comes with a hot drink, juice, and a croissant. The portion was good and we were stuffed afterwards. We enjoyed our meal and also the great view here.

    This spot is great to visit for brunch! It has impeccable views of the city and their menu is nice. I ordered the egg and avocado toast with fresh orange juice and have no complaints. It's a small "quaint" place if you will, so I HIGHLY recommend booking your reservation is advance so you're guaranteed a table but they do (from what I saw) allow walk ins and you wait for a table to be ready.

    We stopped here for drinks and was suggested by a friend who lives in the city. It's set over two levels on the 3rd floor of a shopping centre close to the flower market. It has floor to ceiling glass with views across the city. Staff are nice and service is friendly. It was quite busy so we had to wait to get a seat. We didn't eat here so can't comment on the food. All in all an ok place and I would come here for a drink and perhaps even try the food. One of the places in the city with a nice view.

    Great place for Breakfast in Amsterdam Centrum. This place has a fantastic view! Great service and lots of seating.

    This is an awesome place to get nice skyline views of Amsterdam without waiting in line and paying a lot for an expensive meal. On each side of their glass walls, they show a rough map of all the major attractions that Amsterdam has to offer. A nice touch. I ordered the beef croquettes and they're the creamiest that I've ever had! The flavor is also so satisfying. The ambience is chill and the food is good so I'd come back here for sure.

    Came up to the spot based on an outdated itinerary. Found the elevator easily enough and enjoyed the views but the food was not good. My open sandwich was so oily I couldn't taste anything else. My server was friendly and attentive, but I still can't recommend having a meal here. See the view and find another cafe for lunch.

    I certainly did not feel blue after visiting this great spot in the middle of Amsterdam. This most recent time I made it a point to go see a view of the city from above and Blue provided the best experience for that opportunity. Amsterdam certainly isn't a city of high rises but it's still nice to be able to see the lovely architecture from above. Situated on the top floor of what appears to be a mall, Blue offers up standard drinks and Dutch fair with a chance to see the city in 360 from its large windows. When you arrive, it's open seating so find a spot and wait for the server to come with menus. My friend and I both ordered their homemade ginger ales and lemonade, both for €3,50 each. While these drinks weren't spiked necessarily, they were absolutely refreshing. We also for their bitterballen (€6,50) to split and these deep-fried croquettes danced in our mouths. They're definitely some of the best I've had in the city. It was cool to see the different kinds of people up here. You had couples on dates, friends chit chatting, and even folks working off their laptops. Whether you're dropping by for dinner or simply enjoying a quick drink with a sunset view, Blue is a must and I'd definitely recommend any local or visitor check this spot out.

    The food is alright. You really come here for the viewpoint. You've got to find the elevator that takes you to the restaurant.

    Beautiful view and great food. You have to go into the mall to get there so it can be confusing.

The bartenders were busy but nice and took care to explain the creative and extensive menu. The second time I came I made a reservation for two online. You pay for the reservation but that amount is then applied to your check. The drinks are quite good and I understand the need for the reservation. It's not a big space but it's very popular so it's consistently full. This is a great bar so I can see why it's so popular. Don't miss Flying Dutchmen Cocktails in Amsterdam.

He said water, so I assumed it was it was tinted from the lighting. When I took a sip it was a flavored water. I asked if it was gluten-free and he was very rude in his response. Basically was like um yea it just has spices in it. Spices may not be gluten free and could be of concern for a celiac. I asked him if any drinks were gluten free and he said all but 2. I wasn't confident that the drinks would be made separately from the non- gluten drinks so I opted not to get one. My friend got the bees knees and said it was really tasty. The server did come back and switch my water to regular at the end but he should have been upfront with what he gave to prevent any exposure to peoples allergies.

    Thanks to Iago from NJoy, we heard about this soeakeasy and decided to check it out. Reservations…read morerecommended. Carlota who answered the doorbell, was able to accommodate us at the bar (our preferred seating anyway). She took our coats, placed them in the coat closet up front and led us inside. Once seated, we were given gorgeous ruby red complimentary aperitif (hibiscus, honey, ginger). The drink menu is interesting, based on the concept of growing up, with more basic tastes to start and more mature complex tastes later on in life. (The drinks are more complex the later in the menu). I ordered the Awake at Last, and my husband ordered the Ruby Stone. Mine was sweet and coffee flavored and his was more tart and sour cherry flavored. When I tried his drink, I immediately felt nostalgic because it reminded me of umeboshi (pickled plum in Japanese food), so we ended up trading drinks. Both were great for supping. Sitting at the bar was fun, watching the bartender at his work. He was silent, focused, skilled, professional. So glad we checked it out! I didn't post pictures of the entrance or inside because I'll leave it to you to discover! (The fun of a speakeasy).

    My husband and I were in Zürich before coming to Amsterdam and met a friend who is from Amsterdam…read more He recommended Pulitzer's Bar- so we immediately called and made a reservation. We were going on a boat tour that afternoon, to see all the light installations, so we made sure the timing was right to get to Pulitzer's on time! We had a 6:00 reservation, and got there promptly and found the door that we were to enter. The door was locked, but there was a sign that said 'please wait, someone will be with you soon'. Our wait was very short, and someone promptly came, greeted us and took us to our seats at the bar. Because a reservation, I believe is required, (not 200% about that), we were wondering if it would be a bit stuffy. It was not at all, everyone that we spoke to was very friendly, and great service at the bar. There were other couch settings and a few different set ups, but as usual, we love the bar. Our drinks were fabulous and we tried three of their menu items- only have appetizers, but they were very good. In talking to my sister and her husband, after we returned home, who had just been to Amsterdam, I realized that they stayed at the Pulitzer hotel, which we did not know when we were there. They loved the hotel - so I can give a recommendation for that as well. They said all the rooms are different and they really loved their room. I think everyone would really enjoy a stay at the Pulitzer hotel and definitely get a reservation to Pulitzer's bar- you won't be disappointed.
