We were surprised that this bar opens at 16:00 Mon - Sat (not open at all on Sunday according to their business card), but once open we realised the wait was worth it. Beers from the light to the dark, strong to weak (5% is weak for Holland), and very helpful staff. More

Fantastic beers on tap, really helpful and knowledgeable staff, and very reasonable prices for quality beer. The only thing to note is that it doesn't open until 4pm, so get there early, set up a tab and grab seat at the bar! The sister bar (Temple Bar) is also very good, but that's another review! More

There is cozy indoor seating but we opted to... More

..and there is no heineken in sight ! Simply they are a great showcase for the very best Dutch beer, Speak to the staff and tell them the type of beer (dark, brown, blond) and they will be pleased to help you.
