During my favorite visits, the bartenders explain each drink you order as they serve it and tell you the story. Every drink has a story. Sometimes they are busy or not interested and you don't get the story. I wouldn't have noticed that the drink tastes like a salad, and not in the bad way, had the bartender not told me the story. A couple of times I asked if they have merch for sale and one time they had pins which I bought. The next time I came, they were out of both pins and shirts. Bummer. I recommend a visit when you're looking for a cool place in Amsterdam, especially when you are staying at the hotel.

Super Lyan was a must visit bar based on the videos I watched on YouTube about Amsterdam. The place…read morewas very cool and I received great customer service from the bartenders. The decor was very nice as well. I didn't try any food there. Now it comes to the important part of the review. It's all about the cocktails. I got the Beeswax Old Fashioned(17 Euros).It was very good and a nice twist on an old fashioned. My second drink was the Paradiso Manhattan(17 Euros) and it was a tasty cocktail with something extra. It came with a piece of chocolate that was made with mushroom powder. They paired well together. I can't give it five stars for one reason. The drinks were very good,but they were a little weak. I felt very little to nothing after my second drink. I'm not a big drinker and I have a low tolerance for alcohol. The drinks need to be a little stronger. More of a kick to them. I would still recommend Super Lyan to anyone that has the pleasure of visiting Amsterdam on holiday.

The best cocktails in town if you ask me! They have the biggest cocktail menu and they even have…read morebig bowls and buckets they fill with a specific cocktail to share. You can also ask the waiters to fill a big bowl with a different cocktail. The prices are lower than avarage. The atmosphere inside is very cozy and they usually have good music playing in the background, at night they turn the music a bit louder. Outside they have normal tables and chairs but also lounge couches with heaters. The service could be better though. It's often quite slow!

This place is a vibe, and the bartender, Juno, is HOT like fire…read more My partner and I stopped in to Skyy Bar Amsterdam last winter when we were passing through town and were impressed to see this bar in action. We went on an evening when it was NOT packed, so it was easy to snag a seat at the bar. This place is a treat for the eyes. There are a lot of interior design touches that make it fun to look around and spot cool things/touches like the back wall of the bar and the lighted ceiling display. The upstairs was closed the evening we visited, but the manager allowed us to go up and take a few photos, which was kind. Speaking of the staff...the manager moves quickly, and will absolutely recognize new patrons (this isn't the type of place where you'll be casually ignored all night) There's a live DJ spinning in the corner, and he was pretty legit. The star of this review, however, is the super-hot bartender, Juno. There's an extensive list of drinks at this place, but my partner and I decided to order off-menu, asking Juno for an Old Fashioned. She was so cute. Her eyes lit up, she smiled a little, and walked away to prepare our drinks. When she came back a few minutes later with our drinks (they were truly beautiful and she'd even rimmed the glass with an twisted orange peel) she THANKED US for giving her "a real drink to make." We'd only planned to have the one drink and move on, but Juno's drinks were do damn good we decided to have another round and a shot for the road. Both my imagination and my immediate girl-crush deluded me into thinking Juno winked at me as I paid the bill and she said, "Do come back." But I'm here for the delusion and will always giggle to myself when I think of Juno's smile...and wink!

We ordered beef bitterballen to try this traditional Dutch comfort food. Meanwhile, my husband ordered their signature cocktail called "Beurre Noisette" old fashioned and I ordered a Dutch Negroni (Negronis are my favorite drink to order wherever I go). Both were delicious! Meanwhile, we chatted with Iago the bartender, and Lily the manager. We learned more about Amsterdam and why so many people come here from elsewhere in Europe to work. Iago was super fun to talk to. He'd lived in Amsterdam for 7 years and It was only his first week here at NJoy. He was skilled as a bartender, being able to mix fabulous cocktails and also hold an interesting conversation at the same time. We'd go back just to be able to talk with him again, such a friendly bartender, very attentive, and professional. The beef bitterballen was so hot we had to wait a bit to try it. It comes with savory mustard that is better than any mustard I've tried before. Not sure why. The bitterballen were crispy fried with beef ragú inside. I'm not a fan myself but am glad I tried it. NJoy is elegant and romantic and cozy. There's another bar downstairs with a disco ball above. It would be fantastic to host a celebration event here. Their cocktails are memorable! Highly recommend!

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).
