    Great place which is always busy with crowd of happy people both inside and outside. Never disappointing selection of natural wines by glass. You can also buy a bottle to go with a discount of 15Eur off the menu price. Snacks are easy and delicious. Sourdough bread which comes with many dishes is great. Highly recommended both for natural wines lovers as well as anyone who is looking for a wine bar with good vibes and friendly staff.

    Really fun concept with the chance to try a lot of unique wines. Easy to order, good staff, nice location. We tried a bubbly red and a memorable orange wine. This corner is a great one too with pizza and gelato too on the other sides!

    Amazing Riesling from Germany! It’s biological and unfiltered. It tastes great. We enjoyed nonchalant sitting on the terrace and having quality wine and snacks. Excellent!!!!

    Fantastic natural wine bar with phenomenal service. The descriptions of each of the wines really describe the wine well, and the pricing was very reasonable. I sat out on the patio with a very interesting white and really enjoyed it. I would recommend this to anyone.

    Wow! What a nice wine bar! The vibes and the wine are so great. We felt really welcomed and spend a total of 4 hours in this bar, it’s a very cozy atmosphere with great service. They let us try every wine we ordered and the wines were very special and something new👍🏻 definitely recommend

    Super cute bar! Like the kind of bar that you would want to go and chill out in to have a good time with the BFF or go to write your novel. It is so sweet. Amazing options of wine and delicious cheese, olives, bread, and nuts. The staff are also so kind and accommodating. My sister and I had the best time ever and just sat there for hours drinking and eating. It was so fun highly highly recommend.

    Corner spot 😊 with plenty of outdoor seating weather permitting, which wasn’t yesterday. Although there were some hearty souls sitting outside. It’s a busy place with 20-25 seats including the bar so expect a wait during the obvious busy times. My wait was about 5- 10 minutes at the bar before a table opened up, so not too bad and that was Saturday afternoon around 4:30. I’m sure it’s much busier later on. The space itself is welcoming, warm, weathered and dark considering windows on two sides. Included are many posters on the walls and a chalkboard menu. It kind of reminds me of a brown café. It is a natural Wine Bar so be prepared for that. If you haven’t tasted natural wine, you will notice there is a different flavor profile compared to the more traditional wine methods. They typically are more sour, like a cider and can be a little effervescent, and not as complex as most traditional wines. Honestly, I’m not a big fan because they are much less complex and interesting compared to traditional wine. But of course there are exceptions. Other than wines, they offer beers on tap and a simple food menu of bread, cheeses, rilletes. Friendly, efficient service as well. It’s a nice neighborhood wine bar, just not in my neighborhood but I would return for beer and food. Short video below. That’s all for now.

    Love this spot. When you can get a table, the sharing plates are really lovely. Wine selection is killer and the staff are super friendly and often offer you wines not on the main menu to try or have a glass of. Fellow wine lovers, you must try.

    If Wes Anderson and Natural Wine had a love child, it'd be GlouGlou. This place is intimate and cozy, while having great finger foods and wine. Kudos to the staff for the great recommendations on bottles to try and light hearted conversation.

  • 5/5 Angela Fleur W. 5 months ago on Google
    What can I say. Have a huge hangover, was a great night. Well curated wine selection, the owner is knowledgeable and a real character. Excellent cheeses, fun and cosy atmosphere. You won’t want to leave!

    I went here on a date a couple of moths ago. The date was meh but the wine was good. Most importantly though the staff treated me so well, especially Sara was a lovely server. She was very kind and attentive. Will be visiting again

  • 4/5 Amanda M. 3 months ago on Google • 12 reviews New
    Great bar for trying interesting new wines, I really enjoyed the sparkling red wine they had to offer. The atmosphere is very cozy, perfect for talking with friends for hours. However, the wine glasses did not get replaced in between changing wines, which ruins the tasting experience if your switching from an orange wine to a red wine, I wouldn’t expect to drink red wine in a white wine glass if I’m in a wine bar.

  • 5/5 Valentina G. 1 year ago on Google
    Great wine selection, some snacks and fine service. Very friendly. If you want to buy a bottle of wine to drink here you will pay 15€ extra. Which is understandable, it can be really busy

  • 5/5 Leanne De S. 1 year ago on Google
    Highly recommend to come here for a drink (or five). The servers were really knowledgeable about the wines they had and offered some great advice on what to try. It gets really packed in the evening so I would definitely get there early. Tried the sardines which were great too.

  • 5/5 Gerdi M. 9 months ago on Google
    Very nice wine bar with a great outdoor area where you can have a glass of good wine and watch the people go by. Very relaxed, French vibe. The wine selection was - as expected - great, the prices were fair and the snacks were tasty. Perfect place for a nice summer day. Dogs allowed.

  • 5/5 Tadeo �. 1 year ago on Google
    New favourite wine bar, great vibes, amazing staff members and jazzy mood, perfect for a date or an after work gathering. Great cheese platter with a very appealing sourdough bread, good prices and will 100% recommend!

    It's a very good natural wine bar in Amsterdam. We tried some amazing orange wines. The service was also good. They offered to let us taste some wines on the menu before ordering. A good place to hangout on a nice afternoon.

  • 5/5 Ondrej 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely wine bar with focus on natural and low intervention wines. We popped in for a drink on an early weekend afternoon and the place was already bustling with a nice crowd. The general vibe here is pretty low key and has a neighbourhood feeling to it, so exactly the place we were looking for to unwind after a busy sightseeing schedule. The wine list has a clear focus on low intervention, low sulfites, macerated stuff, so basically all the aspects that can be summed up under the umbrella term natural wine. So if that is your thing, this is the place to be, as the selection is really extensive and prices seem very attractive. We ordered a bottle of Radikon Slatnik for a fair 55 Euro. To soak up the booze we also took a charcuterie board and some baba ganoush. Both were pretty solid. Relaxed vibes, great selection of wines, tasty snacks. Absolutely a wine bar to have on the radar when in Amsterdam.

    Amazing natural wine bar on a sunny street corner - super friendly staff who will let you taste the different options before you settle on your favourite... Really interesting but genuinely good wines, all a variety of natural, organic, biodynamic. Perfect spot to while away an hour or three...

  • 5/5 Cecilia 2 years ago on Google
    A good place to drink some wine and do some people-watching. Service is friendly but you won’t find many things to eat. I enjoyed the atmosphere.

    This is the real deal if you love natural wine, good food and a cozy atmosphere 😀 glouglou is the perfect place to unwind after a busy day - they have an incredible wine selection and the food is to die for 😛 also, the place is cosy in summer and in winter, so perfect for every season! Lovely place to visit for an aperitivo if you are in the neighbourhood. Highly recommended!

👍👍 The perfect place to enjoy high-quality seafood at a reasonable price.
