One of the best pubs I’ve been to in Amsterdam. The tap list is great and the food options are also very nice. Prices are regular. The staff is very friendly and helpful. This is also the first stop of the MoreBeer beer tour of Amsterdam. Definitely worth a shot!

Great bar in the heart of Amsterdam. I've stopped here several times during midday on Saturday and have never had trouble finding a seat. They have many different kinds of beer, you'll be sure to find something you love! I tried one called Beardfish, and it was delicious! I love to stop in when I'm around.

Phenomenal craft beer spot in historic Amsterdam specialized in Dutch offerings. Nicely curated selection, offering around 50 draft beer rotating options. They cover a great gamut of styles, contemporary and classic pours, with special releases in a nicely maintained set up. They also have some selected bottles and cans, and a few designated offerings that can be taken to go. Snack food in the form of charcuterie and cheese boards offer plenty of Netherlands options. Portions are generous and tasty. The venue´s decor has a classic copper and wood feel with some breweriana. Atmosphere is casual and relaxed with indoor and outdoor seating by the canal. Staff is very professional, knowledgeable, and affable. They offer courteous sample pours to explore some options, and do know the craft and hospitality business very well. I saw bartenders being exemplary, courteous, and very professional managing with dexterity and elegance the rare potentially difficult patron. The pub is part of a group that has other venues associated around town with a more international range of ales. The specialization of this one into the Dutch craft beer scene is very notable, offering a very enjoyable insight into their brews. It's a compulsory stop for the Amsterdam visit.

From the moment you step inside, you can feel the amazing ambiance. The wide selection of high-quality beers can be perfectly paired with delicious appetizers. Prices are quite reasonable for Amsterdam. The bartenders are polite, friendly, and always helpful. I’m sure I’ll be coming back on every visit and I’ve already started recommending this place to my friends.

Stopped in on a snowy day and what a little place, beautiful proper pub, friendly without being in your face staff, great beer quality and selection and the beer cheese is something I want to see introduced back home! Lovely to pitch up at the bar with great music.

If you’re aiming to have fun, enjoy the good beers and have a joyful tour ending with a free T-shirt, Arendsnest is the first pub that you should visit!! Then you should follow the other sister pubs in order! When you reach number 4 you’ll enjoy your beer and get the T-shirt! Why not? Just for fun and having a good memory 🍻

A great place to enjoy craft beer! The bartender was very friendly, professional and knowledgeable. I enjoyed the music (classic rock), atmosphere and conversation. And with 52 Dutch beers on tap, what could be better? 😋

Four of us popped in here for a drink whilst wandering about the city. Like a lot of the bars, it's busy and has a great atmosphere where everyone seems to chat to each other and share stories. The staff know their beers that's for sure and they were happy to provide recommendations on request which is good because there is so much to choose from! We didn't eat but the food looked delicious!
