Top 5 Beer Bar in Netherlands

Markt 28, 5401 GP Uden, Netherlands

“Awesome selection of a wide range of beers. The atmosphere was vibrant with a very nice and cozy interior. They also have a bunch of board games so it's really a perfect place to take a date and sample some beer.”

Lange Smeestraat 37, 3511 PT Utrecht, Netherlands

“The only place in the entirety of the Netherlands that I found more than just Apple Bandit cider, and it was actually great! I came here twice throughout my stay in Utrecht, and it was such a relaxing spot to stay. The other reviews have mentioned them, but the cats were a joy to spend time with. The atmosphere is very cosy and I only wish I could have spent more time here.”

Gravenstraat 18, 1012 NM Amsterdam, Netherlands

“Very quiet and warm. It was cold outside and was hungry. This place kept it simple and hit the spot.”

Papestraat 26A, 2513 AW Den Haag, Netherlands

“Great variety of beers and kind staff.”

Amstel 202, 1017 AH Amsterdam, Netherlands

“This was one of our first stops in the city after spending the day walking around. We were looking for a more local place to have a few beers, away from the touristy stuff. The bar lady was lovely and in general the place felt super cozy, we wanted to go back another day but it was far away from our Airbnb 😅”

Zoutsteeg 1, 1012 LX Amsterdam, Netherlands

“Authentic pub in the heart of Amsterdam! Best thing about this pub, besides the drinks and the coziness, was the bartender! He had such a good vibe and knew all the lyrics to all the songs that were playing and he even has pretty good dancemoves! You can also play darts and the small couches for 2 peoples, or 3 if you wanna cuddle :P, are really comfy!”

Javastraat 88-90, 1094 HM Amsterdam, Netherlands

“We had some delicious drinks at Bar Basquiat. The bar has a great vibe and the staff was very friendly and helpful. We ordered different cocktails throughout the night and all of them were delicious we especially liked the espresso martini! Will for sure come back for a fun night out.”

Voorstraat 170, 3311 ES Dordrecht, Netherlands

“Great selection of tap beers from around Europe, and the fridges filled with plenty more bottles and cans. Will definitely visit again”

Molukkenstraat 33, 1095 AT Amsterdam, Netherlands

“Such a great small bar. One of the few I've been to which has a local vibe but is still very welcoming. The beer is great (get the Saison Dupont and a couple of glasses), and sometimes they come round with surprise snacks for you.”

Hoge der A 2, 9712 AC Groningen, Netherlands

“Great and peacefull”

Parkstraat 36, 1791 CB Den Burg, Netherlands

“We had a wonderful New Year's Eve at De Slock! We were warmly welcomed with champagne and oliebollen. Dutch records played all night long. The bar staff are very friendly. Unfortunately we were unable to attend the countdown, as the café did not open until after New Year's Eve. Good to know: in Den Burg there are no bars open during New Year's Eve where you can countdown.”

Raadhuisplein 14a, 2132 TZ Hoofddorp, Netherlands

“The sandwiches are 10/10. Got the beef one. Best one. Calamari’s were good too. So were the wings!! Delicious. Julian was amazing and attentive to us. Even tho he was only 1 person running the whole restaurant that day. Thank you.”

Breemorsweg 12, 7635 NH Lattrop-Breklenkamp, Netherlands

“Z,Z”

Groenmarkt 34, 7201 HZ Zutphen, Netherlands

“Incompetent staff members, far too long wait for a simple coffee. Then still to pour 1/2 of it over the cup edge. People kept walking away because there was no service. Lots of used bottles and glasses on the table should been a warning sign. Keep away. Prices are far too expensive too. And management an arrogant stuck up individual. No idea about customer service. Walk don’t stop here”

Stadionplein 19, 1076 CG Amsterdam, Netherlands

“Delicious food and lovely ambiance. Large selection of beers and a few tap beers. Dog friendly too!”

Markt 5, 6271 BD Gulpen, Netherlands

“Dinner here was delicious! They have a good mix of international and more Dutch dishes, as well as lots of cocktails to choose from. Next time we'll go for the burgers, they seemed to be really popular!”

Esperantoplein 20, 2518 LE Den Haag, Netherlands

“In 2017, a second tasting room was opened in the Houthavens area, called De Prael Houthavens. De Prael has been making significant progress this year as well, as they have implemented a franchise model with plans to open locations in The Hague, Utrecht, and Groningen. De Prael Den Haag was the first to open its doors in the spring of 2018. There have been many changes within the Prael organization, including a renaming of their beers. Some of the previous beer names, such as Johnny, Willeke, Willy, André, and Heintje, have been changed. However, one thing has remained constant: the focus on people. De Prael is a social enterprise that employs individuals who face challenges in the job market. This principle holds true in the center of Amsterdam, the Houthavens, and in The Hague. It is the strength of De Prael, and they remain committed to this approach. The Haegsche Prael currently functions as a restaurant and tasting room, but there are extensive plans to start brewing their own beer there. Currently, the beers are produced in Amsterdam, or as people in The Hague often say, "020." The location of Haegsche Prael, near the Energiecentrale, is fantastic. The space is spacious and gives off a grand café ambiance, which means the bar area takes a slightly more subdued role. With two terraces (front and back) and plenty of square meters indoors, the staff certainly gets enough activity during the evenings. Among the beers we enjoyed there were the Bitterblond (a Kölsch-like beer at 5.7%), the I.P.A. (an English IPA at 6.5%), Aan Lager Wal (a collaboration with Gulpener at 3.5%), the Mikstout (4.9%), the Code Blond (made with Amsterdam rainwater at 5.7%), the Tripel (7.5%), the New England Style (a New England IPA at 5.6%), the D.I.P.A. (double IPA at 9.0%), the R.I.S. (Russian imperial stout at 8.7%), the Barley Wine (a barley wine at 9.6%), and likely a few more.”

Eerste van der Helststraat 62A, 1072 NX Amsterdam, Netherlands

“Brand new beer bar in Amsterdam de Pijp. Nice choice of beers (including alcohol-free Stout and IPA!), live music (although after the show, music was still quite loud) on weekdays and friendly staff. There is also outdoor seating and snacks menu (nachos were really decent). Cool discovery!”
