    We went to Prik around 15:00 in the afternoon. It was slightly chilly outside on this June Sunday afternoon in Amsterdam. The outdoor area was mostly empty - but this didn't last long. Apparently after 3 pm is the time everyone is heading out to this venue. They have very large area outside now, taking over some of the parking spaces. This happened during Covid times but apparently they are able to keep this tables - which is nice. Friendly service, vast menu with lots of drinks. I imagine that after 9 PM and on weekends this place can be very busy. I wish I went inside but never made it past the front door. I do recommend.

    A fun gay bar outside of the gay neighborhood. It's festive, bright and pink on the inside and offers delicious and STRONG drinks. I had the espresso martini and I got a nice buzz from that. The staff are friendly. A great place to stop by after walking around.

    Spicy cilantro prosecco??!?!?!?

    Prik my stik!! Tired of boring ass bars were pretentious sour pusses spend exuberant amounts of energy looking amazingly good so that no one can penetrate their pompous auras to actually talk to them?? Bored of seeing the same sea of overly exaggerated v-necks showing shiny well-defined double mounded pectoral muscles complemented with eyebrows so slick and perfect that girls dare nought compete? Looking for a place to relax after work, on the weekends and even for Sunday Funday after brunch??? Fancy champagne on tap, an outside terrace away from the hustle and bustle of Amsterdam life, or just over the top pink furniture?!???????? THEN BRING YO' STICK, OVER TO PRIK!! And what a truly VERSATILE place prik is! I've seen guys in suits after work, woofy dudes with open shirts, eurovision events, daily specials, amazing cock.... tails, super friendly staff, a small dance floor, funky furniture... From top to bottom... literally, this place has it all! Oh and did I mention the bitterballen/champagne special on Sundays?!? Need I say more?

    We were wandering down Spuistraat when we noticed a bunch of good-looking guys sitting outside in the sun enjoying beer and cocktails. We couldn't help but take advantage of the sun shining down on the tables and joined the crowd to have a few beers. After we started drinking some lesbians showed up too, so it was a big party in the middle of the day. What fun! The service was quick and the prices were cheap by SF standards!

    We stumbled upon Prik after doing a cheese tasting class. Their outdoor patio is nice! Great colorful chairs. Inside is comfortable and there is a big fat cat that will greet you. Very cute. Their menu is very nice - the cocktails are very good and not a bad price! The crowd is mix - both sexes - which is nice because you can be yourself. The bar staff was very attentive. We will for sure stop back by!

    If you are a tourist, you tend to get a rather rude treatment. I am sitting at the bar and I am getting soaking wet by the bartenders washing the glasses. I ordered a drink listed on the cocktail special and I had wait 20 minutes for the drink. If you order drink make sure it is beer, wine or a simple cocktail.

    Located minutes from Vondelpark, in Leidseplein, this is probably the most famous Gay clubs in…read moreAmsterdam, and can be quite intimidating to even the most seasoned event attendees. The front entrance is not very welcoming and if you're not there at the right time the doors may be locked. There may be daily events which you can view on their website. On some days there are two separate events so it may be closed while they switch over and clean for the second event. When you enter, walk through the two doors and greet the nice people at the window. Pay your entrance fee with pin, cash or debit and they will give you a tag and direct you to the coat check. They will give you a hanger and a number you need to stick in your sock or somewhere (very old school). Then you go to a little room (they can see you changing from the main room) and remove your clothing or change into whatever, put your street clothes on the hangar or into the backpack or bag (which I certainly hope you brought) and return it to them. After this, you are free to do what you want. On the main level there is the bar and stage. You can dance or socialize. There are steps upstairs or downstairs. Downstairs there are several dark rooms and showers, bathrooms and sinks. The darkrooms are so dark I can't describe what's in there. You need to see for yourself. There are separate cabins where you can lock the doors and there are slings in some of them. The other rooms I could not see. Upstairs is a nice view of the bar and the main stage. Off to the left are two slings and a big mattress area, a few smaller rooms with GHs. There is something for everyone here but if you just want to hang out and chat with friends, that works too, but mostly on the main level. Things to note: There are no towels for the showers. They provide condoms and I'm not sure if it's lube or hand sanitizer - so think about that. They have many friendly staff or volunteers standing and walking around willing to help or answer questions. They also pick up empty glasses or bottles which is important. My advice is to not stress and just go in and have fun. You can always leave if you want to. Everyone is very nice and feeling the same way as you are. Don't let this chance pass you by if you're visiting Amsterdam and the Leidseplein area. Gay, straight, bi are welcome. No judgement or rules. You'll thank me later.

    Don't go!!! they force you to enter naked depending on your body type and they act rude upon you,…read morefetish? there is one more type of fetish but they would only let me in full nude! maybe a race thing but it was rude and they denied the entry after I paid €20!!

    Fun place with an interesting atmosphere. It feels like a corner/friendly bar, especially right…read morewhen you enter, but then there's a dance floor, and then there are stairs that take you up to the second floor which is another bar/club combo depending on what the patrons are feeling, and then it goes up to the toilets (remember, this is Europe, so you've got to pay to pee if you're there on a busy night). Definitely a fun mix of atmosphere, with an interesting mix of people. During my stay in Amsterdam I went here twice. The first was a busy Friday night, the second time was a quiet Monday night and it was neat seeing how the space was used differently on the different nights. The only downside to this place was on the slower night, when the bartender didn't speak English, and I got some interesting drinks made (but a part of that was also just being unfamiliar with European tender customs - like what mixers are available, what mixers need to be paid for, etc).

    SoHo is a great little spot. It's across the street from Taboo so early in the evening it's not as…read morebusy. They throw open the doors in the warm months and it is nice to sit outside. As the night gets later the crowd pics up! It becomes very crowded on the second floor but that is the fun spot for people watching! The crowd is a pretty good mix - older and younger. They do not take American credit cards so have plenty of Euro.
