Bartender was amazing - played a ton of his own music, which was off the charts. My new husband and I had an amazing time. Patio on the canal was as fantastic as other reviews mention. Beer selection was solid, regionally representative and decently priced. We drank mostly beer, but the shot pours were generous. Spent the better part of my one day in Amsterdam shooting the shit with the bartender or watching the boats go by on the patio: couldn't be happier with my choice. Side note: Bathroom reminded me of home in New York City: clean, well serviced and absolutely floor to ceiling graffiti. Which I love.

I didn't appreciate the attitude from the service here. Ended up ordering a cider since we were committed to staying there since my friend had got a drink that was quite large. The cider was fine but my friend remarked the beer was crap.

The staff is unbelievably rude -- not "busy-night" rude, but straight-up dismissive and annoyed that customers even exist. Ordering a drink felt like I was inconveniencing them, and the attitude alone was enough to make me want to leave immediately. The bar itself is filthy. Sticky floors, dirty surfaces, and an overall grimy vibe that makes you question how often (if ever) anything gets cleaned. It's not "dive bar charm" -- it's just gross. On top of that, the drinks are insanely overpriced for what you get. Weak pours, zero effort, and absolutely not worth the money. You're basically paying premium prices to be treated poorly in a dirty environment. The atmosphere is just awful -- uncomfortable, unfriendly, and completely lacking any redeeming qualities. There are plenty of better bars where you can actually enjoy yourself without feeling disrespected or disgusted.

If a foreigner were to ask me what I thought "gezellig" bars were like, I'd say nothing and just lead them here. It's so cozy, dark, lively and perfect.

This wonderful stop is NOT a dive bar! ( http://www.yelp.com/topic/cambridge-the-real-meaning-of-dive-bar ) With no help from a tour book, we chanced upon this gem. It's a spot I would be thrilled to return to at a future date. What a pleasant surprise! The bar is quaint and attractive with amusing and antique signs tacked up in different languages. The locals pile up at the bar and converse with the bartender. Tourists (myself included) stumble in and orient themselves before finding a perch at one of the dining tables. The dining tables are worn wood tables with traditional decorative rugs (taffelkleeden), like you would see at your Dutch grandma's house. I'm not usually a beer drinker, but when in Amsterdam... So I enjoyed the Herfst Bok. To eat, I ordered the cheese tosti with a cup of vegetable soup. The soup had clearly been prepared that day with fresh ingredients. It was great and perfect for the recent December in which it was consumed. The tosti was a tosti, but what more do you expect? ;o) Definitely visit this establishment. If you're planning a trip, you can take advantage of its location in relation to the Anne Frank Huis.

I live around the corner from this uber dive bar and I never discovered until the month that I'm moving from Amsterdam!!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!! But fret not my Yelp friends, my misfortune can be your gain! If you like really divey squatter-ish local bars, with spinning lady mannequin heads, pinball machines, stuffy small smoking rooms, and a small floor for Interpretive Dancing, this is your place!!! So put on your shimmering silver leggings, fox fur scarf, lumberjack hat and come on over for some beers. This is one sexy vrouw in de buurt dat jij moet kenen!!! P.S. If you prefer taking shots, loud drunk screaming people, and smoking too much weed, you best stick to the main streets of the Red Light.

On this particular visit I am just looking over the menu once again and checking out the "stuff", I didn't buy anything and he was cool with that. So, I came back the next day and bought myself a space cake. Hunters sells them for 4.50euros. Omg, these are not good, but really good. Yeah I can taste the brownie incorporated with the "stuff". Not only that, they are strong and effective. With one space cake and a gram, I was feeling it's effects. Hunters has a decent variety of "stuff". I saw over thirty varieties to choose from. The place has a bar like setup, maybe it was an old bar. I has 2 wooden booth seating upfront, not the most comfortable, but I always see guys playing cards here. There's also seating in back. So what do I think of Hunters? Decent. Only a little above average. Again just another coffeeshop just to hang out.
