    He’s sweet he trying his best to find my taste but the things that they don't want to pay with cash as Korean it's hard to pay with a card cause it charges me every time more than a 5€ fee 😭

    Great craft beer bar with kind service.

  • 5/5 Alex G. 4 months ago on Google • 100 reviews
    Wow. What a service. If, like me you enjoy a good beer but don’t necessarily know much about it, then this is the perfect place. The bartender is incredibly knowledgeable and he will effortlessly guide you through the 100+ beers on offer, and provide samples until you you are satisfied with your choice of drinks.

    The beer was really excellent, with I think 40 different craft beers on tap, the ones I had were very good. Very friendly atmosphere with patrons chatting and dogs coming in and being given water. Few American tourists too. The barman was really friendly and very helpful in choosing beers. Quite heavy music was playing, not too loud, personally really enjoyed it. It's also next to the park which is nice. Overall a great experience all around.

    Wide and quality beer selection, good atmosphere and an amazingly friendly, helpful and professional staff. If you like special craft beers this place is definitely a must try!

    Possibly the nicest bar/pub I have ever been in. Just a lovely place, with a choice of 30+ beers. Owned by an incredibly friendly l, welcoming man and his mate, who it turns out was at the same Radiohead gig as me five years ago. We visited this place every night we were in Amsterdam, just to enjoy an hour in its warming atmosphere. I’m honestly contemplating moving to Amsterdam just to have this place as my local! Cheers!

    While the selection of Beer was excellent, the service was not as good. Maybe being harsh as it was the 4th stop of a beer tour and, as such, was being compared to 3 other establishments and service experiences but would be unlikely to return and only stayed for the one.

    I have been going there for years now and it’s still hard to beat Craft & Draft. Not only do they have an impressive number of good beers, but the staff is always great and the music and atmosphere are top notch. There’s no other place like this in town, full stop.

    We did the Morebeer tour on four bars and it was amazing. Experiencing each bar, knowing different areas in the city, tasting really good beers and getting to know amazing people along the way was just mind blowing. Thanks Alex from Craft & Draft, who was an amazing host. What a great time we had! PS: If you visit all four in one day you get a beautiful T-Shirt.

  • 5/5 Rebecca M. 10 months ago on Google
    Absolutely sensational spot in Amsterdam and well worth a visit. Extensive selection, and great service to help you choose the best beer based on your tastes. Will definitely be back when we're back in Amsterdam.

    Just came here by chance because I like my craft beers and the hotel was close by. And oh boy did this place exceed my expectations. Great beer selection, knowledgeable and hospitable staff. Come as a guest and leave as a friend. This place lives it. Thanks Merk for a great night out.

  • 5/5 David W. 10 months ago on Google
    Fantastic selection of beers, and really good knowledge from the bartenders. This a really good place to enjoy Dutch craft beer, and I would wholly recommend it. Hot and cold snacks served very late which was ideal for us as we arrived in Amsterdam late in the evening.

  • 5/5 job r. 10 months ago on Google
    Unmatched, amazing service. Huge selection a high quality craft beers. Best bar in Amsterdam!

  • 5/5 Dmitry B. 6 months ago on Google
    My favourite Craft Bar in Amsterdam! Bartenders are super cool, the selection of beer is amazing and they always have something new on tap and in bottles\cans. Highly recommended for all Hopheads =)

  • 5/5 John W. 6 months ago on Google
    The final bar on the morebeertours route - so we got out T-shirts! This one recently purchased by the staff - so they take great pride in both the beer and the service! Will definitely need another T-shirt if we visit Amsterdam again!!!

  • 5/5 Megan S. 6 months ago on Google
    We absolutely loved Craft and Draft. It was our last stop on our Morebeer tour but we stayed for several beers. Thanks Alex for all the great recommendations! We had a blast at your bar!

  • 5/5 Chandra D. 5 months ago on Google
    I've been here before, but this time we ended here cause it was the last stop on the Morebeer tour. We only had one beer here, but service was great as always. Highly recommend. Loads of choices and they always help you if you can't decide between the beers.

    Very friendly staff, loads of great beers, not as busy as many of the other bars in such a busy city! Definitely worth a visit.

  • 5/5 Emiliano L. 5 years ago on Google
    This is a very nice place to try a copious variety of very fine beers. The atmosphere is pleasant, as well as the music and attention by its owner. Strongly recommended!

  • 5/5 Christopher S. 4 years ago on Google
    Amazing selection of beers with expert pourers. High quality snacks too.

  • 5/5 Andreas Hermansson (. 4 years ago on Google
    What a wonderful place! Good music, tasty beer and a great bartender. I just regret we didn't find out about this place before the last night in town. Would have been super fun to try more of the beers and to go on the Morebeer tour.

  • 5/5 Ryan K. 1 year ago on Google
    Brilliant atmosphere, staff and choice of beers! My partner and I had a great time earning our More Beer t-shirts on the public crawl, and Craft & Draft was a great place to end on! Recommended.

  • 5/5 Cristina’s T. 2 years ago on Google
    Great beer selection. Awesome environment. We always stop here every time we go to Amsterdam.

  • 5/5 Ilan P. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic place. Brilliant beers and atmosphere. Very relaxed and friendly. The bar staff are top notch, they know their beer, are super friendly and very helpful and accommodating. We came here many times and if we are in Amsterdam again we will come back here.

  • 5/5 Delphine D. 2 years ago on Google
    Great bar, fantastic choice of beers (40) and nice people 🤩

  • 5/5 Alba Silvente F. 2 years ago on Google
    I have to say that I've been there so many times already that I've lost count 🤣 Quality beers of many types, strengths and flavours. The beer menu is constantly changing and never leaves you indifferent 😍. The waiters are usually very friendly and remember your face if you visit them several times. It's also part of a beer tour where you can win a t-shirt 💃

  • 5/5 Philip U. 1 year ago on Google
    A great place for any craft beer fan. 40 on tap and more in can and bottle. Great staff who are knowledgeable (shout out to Merk). They also have some table games to play while you enjoy the beers.

  • 5/5 Josh G. 2 years ago on Google
    Big range of beers, barman very knowledgeable, nice bar.

  • 5/5 Marc-Robert S. 1 year ago on Google
    A wonderful bar with wonderful people serving you and sitting next to you! I had a blast both times I visited and I will be coming back next time I visit Amsterdam again!

  • 5/5 Helen G. 1 year ago on Google
    Had a great time at Craft and Draft, we even went back more than once during our holiday. Alex is super friendly and helpful. The selection of beers was really great and varied and the prices were very fair. This place really made our holiday! We'll definitely come back next time we're in Amsterdam.

  • 5/5 Lena J. 1 year ago on Google
    Last stop of the morebeertour. Was a bit of a walk from the last bar. Or a short tram ride. Nice decor. Bartender was friendly.

  • 5/5 Daniel 1 year ago on Google
    A very cool little bar with a nice selection of beers. The barman knew his stuff and recommended a number of beers based upon styles we liked. A range of bar snacks as well, all pretty tasty.

  • 5/5 Paul R. 1 year ago on Google
    Massive beer selection as you would expect. A lot of quality in the long list too. Super friendly and helpful staff who will serve or steer you to the right selection. Very nice relaxed vibe without any pretensions at all. Felt very comfortable here.

  • 5/5 Tyler L. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic craft beer bar with a wide selection of local and international beers. Friendly and knowledgeable bartenders happy to point you to a great beer. Really if you like Craft beer and are in Amsterdam you need to come by here

  • 3/5 Geert L. 1 year ago on Google
    Update after response from Craft & Draft: We thought that the atmosphere in some of the other Morebeer Tour cafes was a little better, more welcoming. Mostly, however, the first time we came here (a few months ago) the staff had had even more drinks than us, which made us feel a little awkward.

👍👍 The perfect place to enjoy high-quality seafood at a reasonable price. Was surprised to see this large restaurant buzzing at 5pm (both inside and outside!) but after seeing the fresh fish on display and trying the sashimi which just melts in the mouth I understood why. The staff were also very well-...
