Gezellig - Awesome place! I was skeptical at first. I saw the outside of this establishment on a…read more"House Hunters International" episode in Amsterdam. Since it's my favorite place, I looked it up on maps and saved it.
When I was there a month or so later, I was riding my bike in the afternoon and saw someone sitting near the front window working on his MacBook with a nice glass or white wine. I immediately slammed the brakes and parked my bike! Fortunately I had my MacBook so I could get some work done and drink some great wine at 4 PM (16:00 hours).
Bottom line is you simply purchase a 20-30 euro card (or whatever you want) when you get there and can just choose from any wine in the restaurant. It's awesome. The notable thing is, the bartenders are wonderful and very helpful. They don't just let you fend for yourself, they assist you, give you advice, even free samples! Awesome place.
Also, great food too! Try the oysters! They have bitterballen (of course) all day - then dinner and food all night.
My favorite dinner place in Overtoom. Don't be afraid as I was the first time - when it was really crowded. Friendly and warm place - gezellig!
