I met friends here at 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. 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.

I had the best experience ever at PRIK. Starting with my server Dylan, he was amazing and approachable, alway making sure we were good with our drinks. Good food and awesome drinks. The manager Igor was outstanding and bartender Paul did a great job too. You guys made me fall in love with Amsterdam and I am definitely coming back again. I definitely recommend this place, great vibe, great music, good food and drinks.

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.

In the Spuistraat near Dam square you can find bar Prik. A welcoming, all people loving bar with the most happy people working there. The service is great and Davide was a great host! Sure way to brighten your day and have a nice drink, cocktail or bite inside or outside on the terrace. Recommend!

Went there on a Monday evening for cocktails and it was lovely. Everyone was really nice, the place was very cozy, and the music wasn’t too loud. I ordered the amaretto sour (great if you love sour stuff, like me) and my friend ordered a mojito. The cocktails are really good and we’re definitely coming back.

Love, love, love this place! Went to Amsterdam for vacation last week and ended up making this a nightly hangout for me, my husband, and our friends. The drinks are reasonably priced and the bartenders are super nice. My favorite part? No smoking in the bar! There were other bars in Amsterdam that we walked into and then walked straight out of because of the smoke. What is this? The 90's? 😊 Prik also features a very cool cat who hangs out at the bar or under the seats in the back. Can't really think of anything negative to say about the place. When we visit Amsterdam again, I know where we'll be each night!

Nice place to hang out and dance. Great terrace for summer

We stayed a weekend in Amsterdam and nearly came back every day to this great gay bar for cocktails and dancing and starting or ending the night. The staff were just wonderful, the vibe amazing. Very relaxed and uplifting. I recommend going!!

Went for drinks after dinner and the bartenders and servers were very welcoming. It's near the palace and some of the gay clubs and shops. We didn't have the food, but the drinks were great! I love prosecco and they have a sweeter (pink) and drier (white) ok tap for only 5€/ drink. My husband for the blue daisy which (although very sweet) was extremely tasty as well! Very lively with the outdoor seating very full and indoor seating more in fluctuation, but still full.

I love this place the cocktails are delicious! I ordered strawberry cheese cake cocktail and bitterballen. Happy vibes and super happy friendly staffs. Davide served us today he was really friendly & sweet. Great service I’ll will be back!

My first time visited Amsterdam was 10 years ago and Prik was my first choice for a hang out. Today I have come to refresh my memory and show Prik to my husband. It is always lovely here, great choices of cocktail and super nice service.

Awesome ambiance and great staff! Prosecco on tap is awesome! A quaint yet eloquent establishment with great tunes and a wonderful atmosphere! Staff are always pleasant, courteous and accommodating. They have a huge selection of draught beers, wines, specialty cocktail as well as their famous Prosecco on tap! Always a good time to be had at Prik!

Sunday afternoon and cocktails. Slightly older Crowd. Free finger food when we were here. The Winters Cocktail special "Hansel's Prison" was tooth enamel damaging.... way too sweet. However, we loved the other cocktails we tried. Love this place will be back many many times.

We stopped in one afternoon for a quick drink before dinner and had a great experience. We sat at the tables outside (so can't speak to the interior décor), but we had a great server who gave us lots of recommendations for things to do. I would definitely visit this bar again.

It was such a great experience. I love the ambiance, the staffs and the concept of the cafe! Drinks really tastes good, i had the 'Lick my Peach' Cocktail and my husband had a Chardonnay. Totally a good vibes. Definitely would come back here and bring more friends.👌🏼💯

A bear and a twunk walk into bar... and had a great time. Bar staff were super friendly and the atmosphere was great. Gay bars usually have a crowd, often very cliquey but this place was the opposite had a good mix of people. Can't wait to go back.

Delicious cocktails and cute/friendly staff. A great place to meet up with friends and just drink by the streets.

A place with open minded people and great staff! Delicious finger food and cocktails.

Friendly (local/expat/tourist) bar. They have their resident cat - and specific theme nights - and drink specials. Check out their website.

Cute gay bar! Love the ambiance and the colorful drinks! Affordable drinks prices as well. Bartenders were so nice and cute!

This is where The one said to me I love you for the first time. Now is the moment where you say awwwww. Lovely atmosphere and people are so friendly and smiling all the time. Even if you haven’t found the one yet. This is an absolutely wonderful place to be while in Amsterdam. Have fun you guys.

Don’t let the name or that it’s a gay bar keep you away. Very easy going place with a friendly staff. Wife and I went for cocktails last night and it was great. Incredible drinks!

A must go in the city, great place to start the night off, or even stay till it closes! The waiters were so friendly, nice and fast. The atmosphere was great and the music really good! The prices are normal, the area very accessible and it s guaranteed you will have fun!

Great cocktails & staff - awesome music + DJ and fun location!

Super nice vibe, always! Inside the interior looks a bit from an Austin Powers movie, the terrace has more of a Berlin vibe. Nice crew, nice music, great cocktails and much more. Want to know what? Go visit this place yourself!

very kindo place. the very nice and attentive stuff. recommended to get together and socialize and have a cocktail and snack. the only thing that the audio system is missing bass and it’s kind of annoying to be able to converse

We went an hour before closing time which meant that we had a short time to experience the bar. Staff is lovely and drinks are delicious! Prices are great too. We went on a Sunday and while it wasn’t busy the vibe was great.

Such great energy and friendly bar staff! The cocktails were so so tasty, and presented so well!! A must see in the city ❤️

Better gay bar than most of the center ones. Great place if you’re looking for one to hang out. Outdoor area shuts down too early - largest complaint. PS they’re really into karaoke…twink bartenders also joined in. Overall everyone was friendly and fun.

Used to be my favourite cocktail bar in Amsterdam, I’ve been going there for years and recommending it to everyone too. Not sure what’s happened but seems to have gone downhill the last year. Slow service, drinks not well made, even rude staff. I had taken a friend there who was visiting from France & told her what a great cocktail bar it was. At the end I had to apologise to her for the bad treatment. Never had that before :( last week the service was extremely slow and the previous customers glasses were not cleared from tables. When I asked to pay, the staff member added 10% gratuity on to the payment machine, without asking or telling me. I really hope it improves….

Great place for cocktails and service. Bar staff were fun and attentive.

Big patio, friendly staff, great menu and great prices! Will be back for sure, the inside looks fun as well :) the dutch daddy toastie was soo good

Now I see why everyone is talking about Roman. The pretty guy with nice piercings, tattoos and a moustache. That guy might be one of the nicest people I've ever met. Not trying to exclude other waiters, they were all amaziiiing. Friendly, chill vibe. They care about their customers a lot and also looking from a perspective as a customer I see even if it's busy they take it easy and find time to have fun. I'm going back as soon as possible and I suggest to anyone to do the same. Say hi to Roman for me ;) if I could give 6 stars I would babes

Very friendly staff but ordered a cocktail at 9 euros and it turned out to be a canned cocktail 😬 and it wasn't even that good. Was very disappointed. Maybe should indicate the canned drinks!

Always a good time at this bar in the city center. International staff, all who are friendly and speak great English, and a wide mix of guests. One of my favorite bars in the Netherlands.

Best bar in the city. Special extra points for the Argentinian and the Australian behind the bar carrying the entire vibe and energy! Give ´em a raise! Happy pride month ✨✨

Loved my pink piña colada, the vibes and Cas is the best!!

We just love the place. Always going there when we visit Amsterdam.

Great location-very friendly people-great vegan options! We will definitely come back!

Prik is one of the finest Bars in Amsterdam! You can be certain everyone gets treatment that makes one feel special. Cocktails are delicious and not so expensive! They have the best terrace and the music is exquisite.

(Translated by Google) Cool location, nice people, delicious drinks! Gladly again! ??☺️ (Original) Coole Location, nette Leute, leckere Drinks! Gerne wieder! ??☺️

(Translated by Google) Nice place with a super nice and spacious terrace. Insanely tasty cocktails and top snacks. The service is extremely friendly and smooth. Excellent price-quality ratio. We had a great evening. In short, an absolute RECOMMENDATION and certainly worth repeating !! (Original) Toffe zaak met een super mooi en ruim terras. Waanzinnig lekkere cocktails en top hapjes. De bediening is uitermate vriendelijk en vlot. Prima prijs-kwaliteit verhouding. Wij hebben een geweldige avond gehad. Kortom een absolute AANRADER en zeker voor herhaling vatbaar!!

Table service due to Covid which is incredibly slow. After requesting service at the bar numerous times and being told to wait, one of our party approached the server to say we were waiting and was promptly told "Well they can wait for me!" Very lucky they didn't have €50 thrown at them and told to shove the rest of the bill. Pretentious, slow and downright rude. Not called "Prik" for nothing

Great place. Great staff. Great service

(Translated by Google) A different bar, central, great atmosphere. Good service and great terrace. The staff ?????? (Original) Un bar diferente, céntrico, ambiente genial. Buen servio y terraza genial. El personal ??????

A fantastic place for good drinks and food. Also a great place for sharing some precious moments with friends. Blessed to have this place right around the corner. And the extension of the outdoor terrace is absolutely a plus. Thanks to the great staff taking care of us.

Great spot! Cocktails for a good price and quite strong too! The skinny waiter with the moustache is adorable. We came back two nights in a row for the spicy mango cocktail :)

Having read some of the complaints below of neighbours and the reactions of the owners I would like to chip in as a regular customer myself: it is true that there is a handful of guests that find it amusing to yell constantly and also in the late (early) hours. This is not only disturbing for the neighbours but also for other guests (we are not all flamboyant and loud). So I can imagine that if we as guests get annoyed by it, it will be even more so for people that are not there voluntarily like we are. So I find the reaction of the owners quite lacking to be honest. It also gives a bad image to gay people if we are always set apart as loud and inconsiderate. So I think PRIK should do more about misbehaving guests. We do not want the general public to turn against gaybars. That said, the bar itself is quite enjoyable, food and drinks are good albeit a tad pricy.

(Translated by Google) Frankly I do not recommend it at all. The service is slow the waiters are rude. I even got attacked by one. I have seen frankly better as a lgbt place. Nothing in comparison with what I saw in Paris, Spain, London or Italy. I'm shocked. In short, do not go at all. This is really the first time that I have been attacked by a waiter in a so called "friendly" place. (Original) Franchement je ne le conseille pas du tout. Le service est lent les serveurs sont désagréables. Je me suis même fait agresser par un. J'ai vu franchement mieux comme endroit lgbt. Rien en comparison avec ce que j'ai vu a Paris, Espagne, Londres où Italie . Je suis choqué. Bref n'allez pas du tout. C'est vraiment la première fois que je me fais agresser par un serveur dans un endroit soit disant " convivial" .

I visited the Prik in my last holidays in Amsterdam. Is a good place to go with your friends and take an originals cocktails. It is very well located, near of Anne Frank house. And the staff help to you with your choose and was so good in the attention. If I go back to the city, with any doubt I will repeat.

We made a reservation for 5 persons on Friday 10. July, once we arrived we had to wait on the line for a long time, finally we seat then once of the stuff came and said that is not allowed to be 4 at the same tabel so we have to use an extra tabel and they don't have an extra one and we have to leave, the stuff there are not experienced and a very bad team work

Been to your place last Saturday. Seated, reseated, pushed around like a peace of furniture by one of your employees (the skinny one with the moustache). Don't expect any positive ratings if you continue like this, sorry.

The bar is great, but the customers, especially youngsters, are loud and terrible. Asked a couple of loud chaps behind me to quiet down as they were wearing my ear off, not only did they not quiet down, they also threw away mine and my friend's beef bitterballen. We didn't see them doing it was definitely them!

It's such an incredible place, I've been there a couple of times with different friends and I had always a good time because the environment it's nice and friendly. Music is great and drinks aren't expensive.

My favourite bar since the beginning. I actually call it my Stamkroeg. Go there to meet some locals or the friendly staff. ❤️

Literally my favorite place ever! The Egyptian guy is like the loveliest host ever!!! Great cocktails also, gets me real drunk real fast hahah

Very nice place and people working there, coctails are delicious ?❤???

Love the place!! Especially the waiter, he’s such a nice guy. I think his name is Roman, and if it’s not that’s you can recognise him as the skinny guy with the moustache! 10/10 service!

Really relaxed place to stay , even in corona times , sexy staff

Bar has no respect for neighbours. Screaming customers all night.

(Translated by Google) Very nice bar (Original) Gezellig erg leuke bar

(Translated by Google) Cozy bar, mixed crowd and entertaining music. Not a highlight in the gay bar heaven, but more pleasant than many other bars in Amsterdam. (Original) Gemütliche Bar, gemischtes Publikum und unterhaltsame Musik. Kein Highlight am Gay-Bar-Himmel, aber angenehmer als viele anderen Bars in Amsterdam.

Enjoy this bar. Nice vibe. Friendly staff and honestly really well priced for Amsterdam!

Great place to get a drink and chat with your friends. Nice music in the weekends. Try Passion Swizzle or Bobies Gin.

(Translated by Google) very warm atmosphere. my friend and i will be back. (Original) ambiance très chaleureuse. mon ami et moi reviendrons.

(Translated by Google) Great atmosphere, delicious cocktails, prices okay. Ambience to feel good ... (Original) Super Stimmung, leckere Cocktails, Preise in Ordnung. Ambiente zum Wohl fühlen...

Great atmosphere, nice events and some nice alcoholfree options as well. ??️‍?

(Translated by Google) Very tasty drinks (Original) Sehr leckere Drinks

(Translated by Google) Nice place to be with friends / family. We enjoy lots here. I recommend here 100% ?? (Original) Fint sted å være med venner /familie. Vi koser oss masse her. Eg anbefaler her 100% ??

Love this place. Great cocktails: interesting and tasty combinations and renditions of the regular cocktails. Recommending the Pink Mule and French Mule. The staff is super nice, especially the Egyptian guy, so cute!

I am a neighbour so a bit biased possibly. But I am really fed up with the constant screaming on the terrace. People are sitting next to eachother but still feel the need to yell like lunatics all night. Edited after response: appreciate the answer, but it is not entirely adequate. I have checked more than ten times where the noise is coming from and it is not from scooters or people passing by. It is constant screaming from your guests. I know, I know there is alcohol involved and what can you do as a bar to prevent people from screaming? Well not a lot and that is the whole point. You bring those people there, but barely take any responsibility for the annoyance they cause. A host will most likely not work in practice and policing people all the time is not doable. So, I would suggest taking logistic measures, one of which you already seem to be open to (switching terraces). Or maybe building some more physical barriers between the terraces and our bedrooms. It is honestly quite a torture to be robbed from your sleep on a daily basis and it makes me want to pull some strings to close down Prik eventually.

Noise

incredibly disappointing, customers were too loud and noisy.

Loved the place, but the customers are really too loud, my husband and I used to bring our son there whenever we went out, but not anymore

Super relax bar with very nice staff. The cocktails are the best one from Amsterdam!

Amazing cocktails, love the people, nice staff, great place!!

It is a really nice place to meet friends and chill. They have a wonderful cocktails and the terrace is amazing for the summer days! The bartenders are really nice and friendly always smiling. Specially Gerson he advise us to choose nice cocktail! I will definitely come back!!!

One of the best places to chill and drink at night in Amsterdam. Also, the terrace is perfect. The atmosphere and the cocktails are incredible! 100% recommended!
