I liked it a lot. They had 5-6 different beers on tap. A couple of local ones, all of which I saw one at Mediametic, a bar and restaurant kind of a place, that combined art and technology and offers their own food they grow themselves or get it from locals. Nice! My company tries a soup that she very much enjoyed, another one hab a chocolate kind of cake dessert which I tried and was very chocolaty and rich. The young guy behind the bar was very welcoming and friendly. We had a good but short time here and I got pretty drunk from the 9% alcohol beer I had to engulf within 15 minutes - looool

Three reasons we went here: - Three minutes from my house ;-) - Charcoal oven where they make the pizza's - It was 'Gierige Maandag' (Greedy Monday); pizza's were 8 euro's So yea. The combination of these factors made us go here. The place is nicely decorated, great for a multitude of reasons. Good wifi available, good beers both bottled and draft, and god yes those pizza's. De-lish. They were very nicely done and even though it's called Gierige Maandag, they definitely were not Gierig with the toppings. Great mozzarella, lovely crust, not too much cheese (god I hate too much cheese), very nicely balanced flavors. We switched halfway through our pizza's and I can confirm that both were amazing. They have a number of specials depending on the day, so I'd recommend trying out a few of these days. But the pizza they serve are what hooked me and I'm sure it'll get you hooked, too. You're welcome! :-)

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.

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.

I was solo and tucked into a cozy corner in the back. Decided to try their beer flight, which unlike in the US, you don't choose which 4 beers you want to try, and they don't come in a tray with labels of which beer is which. The server will tell you, but I had to ask a couple of times and write it down so that I would know what I was tasting. I had a Strawberry Rhubarb something, a New England IPA, a Dunkelweizen and a Tripel. All were very tasty, but I am not a beer connoisseur. Bottom line - a decent option if you are in the neighborhood and want better beer than Heineken. Proost

It may seem like a little thing, but it's the little things that create a great experience. I hope I see them at another event soon!

They taught me and the others at the event to make two cocktails. These were caipirinha and mojito. I've had experience at two cocktail making events before and these guys were good. The approach was two people, one trainer so it was easy to get it right first time. I was surprised to see the caipirinha was called that not a caprioska given it was made with vodka but the cocktail was nice. Different to a caipirinha made with cachaca, this was more sour that sweet (I'd go with calling it a caprioska) but it was very refreshing on a warm summer night. I'd muddle and shake myself another one of their mojitos and look forward to seeing them at another event soon :)
