    Awful experience... Club was fine but expensive, went outside to grab some air couldn't get back in to get my coat. Bouncers were absolute bottom of the barrel. Only thing they were keeping save is there brain from any competent thoughts. I can't recommend it and you should go drink somewhere else.

    Aggressive bouncers that always make silly comments about anything before letting you in. They think that they own the place for some reason. Do not go to this pub. Worst pub in Amsterdam.

    Just find another place. One that is fun 😸 ⛔ Bouncers are amateurs and are actually the ones making me feel not safe (I feel safe everywhere else). I saw a guy talking to a bouncer to get in. The bouncer then headbutted him against his forehead and he fell down. ⛔ People leave quickly ⭐ Owner is nice

    Advice to the club manager, make the security guard pass an IQ test before hiring them, or else you end up with the knuckeheads you have there now, especially the big tall blond one who can barely speak English

    (Translated by Google) Nice place, commercial Latin American music. The only big problem is that the guy at the entrance before letting us in asked us where we were from: the first day we answered Italians, admission price 5 euros with a drink, which turned out to be actually a beer or a wine (which cost 3.50 in the restaurant). Two days later we return with Australian boys, they ask us the same question and we pretend to be an Australian company: we entered for free. If this is not racism, tell me what you are (Original) Locale carino, musica latino americana commerciale. Unico grosso problema è che il ragazzo all'ingresso prima di farci entrare ci ha chiesto di dove fossimo: il primo giorno abbiamo risposto italiani, prezzo di ingresso 5 euro con un drink, che poi si è rivelato essere in realtà una birra o un vino (che nel locale costano 3.50). Due giorni dopo ci ripresentiamo con dei ragazzi australiani, ci fanno la stessa domanda e fingiamo di essere una compagnia di australiani: siamo entrati gratis. Se non è razzismo questo ditemelo voi cos'è

    I had one night left in Amsterdam, my friends had left earlier in the evening to another European city. After leaving a close by Piano bar I walked by and saw the advertisement for hip-hop and ragge. So I tried to stop in for a drink and to listen to more music. I was told by the bouncer that because I was solo I couldn’t come in. I wasn’t with others and that isn’t allowed… I am traveling solo and love all types of music… Let’s just say that it wasn’t a very “welcoming place”.

    One of the worst pubs in Amsterdam - Bouncers are very aggressive. Luckily it is still closed due to the pandemic

    The staff gave mine and my friend's coat away to other people in some bizarre mishap then refused to give us any compensation. This was a hellhole of a place that was massively overpriced. Plenty of other decent venues in the area. DO NOT go here and if you do do NOT trust staff with your coats!

    It looked so cute from outside but nobody in there maybe because it was on sunday staff was nice tho and would have so much potential :( it looks so good and thought more should go there tho

  • 1/5 VJ 6 months ago on Google • 9 reviews
    Good music but a bit too loud (could not hear anything my partner was saying). Also a big minus, the toilet was 50cnt for everyone, including paying customers. My partner tried to go to the bathroom and an employee asked for money, we told them we had drinks downstairs and the answer was "everyone pays". Not a good look. The bartender was friendly though!

  • 3/5 Vako A. 6 years ago on Google
    Food was below average, No seasoning at all. Waiter was a good guy tho..

  • 5/5 Amina O. 4 years ago on Google
    I went here two nights in a row while I’m Amsterdam- the DJs are AMAZING. My friend and I danced for hours while we were here. They played a lot of reggaeton and Afrobeats music. Prices of drinks is reasonable too. If you love to dance and you like a very upbeat vibe- you should definitely visit this club.

  • 5/5 Anastasia Z. 4 years ago on Google
    Had tons of fun here!! The drinks are good price and the music is great!!

  • 3/5 Raza Haq Q. 5 years ago on Google
    I just came here with a few friends to start a pub crawl, that was awesome ! I didn't plan to stay all night, but after talking to them they were kind enough to allow me to join the group without paying the full price. After that, we headed to the red light district to merge with another group of people which was cool too.

  • 5/5 Daniela C. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Really cool. It touches everything, women do not pay and they get shot of vodka. Starts early, but, only pump after 10pm, when pout !!! Only drawback: Every time you go to the bathroom, you pay 0.50 €. Big loss for the "piss" on duty, but, well worth the visit. (Original) Muito legal. Toca de tudo, mulheres não pagam e ganham shot de vodka. Começa cedo, mas, só bomba após às 22h, quando lota!!! Único inconveniente: Toda vez que vc vai ao banheiro, paga 0.50€. Prejuízo grande para as "mijões" de plantão, mas, vale a visita.

  • 5/5 Joyce S. 4 years ago on Google
    This is my spot any time of the week you will enjoy your self. Nice music, when i come here i just can't stop dancing. Plus not to mention very friendly staff.

  • 3/5 Raluca A. 11 years ago on Google
    Good option to explore some of Amsterdam`s night life. Theme nights during the week and DJ parties until late in the morning in the weekend. Music varies in style, chill in the early hours and definitely dance mood after 10-11pm.

  • 3/5 DNA G. 3 years ago on Google

    Nice chill place with mix of R&B and Reggae (more reggatonish) however you spell it. Bar tenders are super friendly and make nice drinks. I like the casual dress code.

  • 1/5 S.moura L. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Just to give you an idea, Every time I went to get drinks for me and my friends, there were times when they asked for almost € 10 more. There were three behind the bar, each one takes its price. (drinks were always the same). The bathrooms are payable. (Ridiculous), since people are consuming all night. (Original) Só para terem uma ideia, Cada vez que ia buscar bebidas para mim e para os meus amigos, havia vezes que pediam quase 10€ a mais. Eram três atrás do bar,cada um leva o seu preço. ( bebidas eram sempre as mesmas). As casas de banho são a pagar.(ridículo),visto que as pessoas estão a consumir toda a noite.

  • 1/5 Samuel M. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The worst place I've ever been and look that I've been in the night for years. Especially the "dj" that was last night that you should think is David Guetta when you should know that you have to be humble in this world and treat people who go to the place well not to see him since he is no one famous and It works for people, besides it is not that I played very well, with a computer program and leaving the songs super shortly, looking defiantly just by watching him as he tries to mix and if you approach to ask him without even listening anymore He is answering badly and super arrogant. To learn education and to be facing the public a little humility and step to click! (Original) El peor sitio que he estado nunca y mira que llevo años en la noche. Sobre todo el "dj" que estaba anoche que se debe pensar que es David Guetta cuando deberia saber que hay que ser humilde en este mundo y tratar bien a la gente que va al local no para verlo a el ya que no es nadie famoso y trabaja para la gente, ademas de que tampoco es que pinche muy bien, con un programa de ordenador y dejando las canciones super poco tiempo, mirando de manera desafiante solo por mirarle como intenta mezclar y si te acercas a preguntarle sin ni siquiera escuchar ya te esta contestando mal y super prepotente. Que aprenda educacion y a estar cara al publico un poco de humildad y de paso a pinchar!!!

    (Translated by Google) Last Saturday, a 25-euro tip to the long-haired blonde bar staff did not live up to her expectations. She also smelled dirty down there. not in the mood anymore. otherwise nice tent. (Original) Afgelopen zaterdag 25 euro tip aan de langharige blondine barmedewerker heb haar verwachtingen helaas niet waargemaakt. Ze rook ook vies daar beneden. geen zin meer in. verder leuke tent.

👍 A cozy restaurant with a view. I liked those Avocado chips very much. Comparatively budget friendly in central Amsterdam. (More ideal for a coffee date.) They are providing white bread with steak. . . PS: Don’t forget to reserve a table and visit the restaurant.
