    Make a reservation and leave all your requests at home. Tell the best bartenders what flavours, liquors and combi's you like and they will give you one hell of a perfect cocktail experience.

    Make a reservation, since it's the best dutch cocktailbar (Esquire) and #26 of the world. Awesome place to have drinks, just pick from the perfect menu what you like most.

    What an awesome speakeasy. Their menu is a view finder which I found pretty sick. And if you are in the mood for something daring try saying 'i like gin, with pepper and a sour base' and voila.

    Fancy to the dot! Competes with the best speakeasy bars of NYC. Worth waiting outside to be buzzed in. Bartenders can make anything taste just heavenly.

    One of the best speakeasies and not pretentious at all. I love the appeal of knocking on the unmarked door to enter this vibrant, cozy bar. They make a mean Boulevardier.

    The first real and authentic Speakeasy in Amsterdam. Make a reservation on the day to be allowed in behind the door...! Great to enjoy during the week, weekends can be crowded.

    Great spot for a delicious cocktail. Cozy, quiet, great service and hard to find. Ask for the special gin, citrus and passion fruit cocktail not on the menu

    This bar has set the speakeasy trend in the city. You can enter it through a secret door. One of the best places for a unique cocktail experience. Difficult to get in, so make a reservation.

    The very speakeasy that comes as top-of-mind (and top of Google) when you type speakeasies in Amsterdam. And why not? These are some of the best drinks.. In. The. World. Read more

    The menu is a treat in itself: great tongue-in-cheek descriptions and artwork. Crazy cocktails! Very hard to make a choice... Luckily they do tailor made as well: describe your preferred taste.

    Amaaazing cocktails - just ask the cute Adam Brody-esque English bartender make all your drinks. And ask for something with hibiscus -- sweet and syrupy goodness!

    for real speakeasy. tiny window in the door, if they have space you get in. a cocktail of the day while you peruse the menu and a man behind the bar who has a ton of awards and imagination.

    Door 74 is low key, and you can only get in by making a reservation from 9am onwards on the day you plan to stop by. Remember to leave your number, too, so they can get back to you for confirmation. Read more

    The cocktails are amazeballs! Thanks to Timo & his team of excellent shakers. Ask for the 'speculaas' shot, tastes like a Dutch cookie! Not the place to bump into new bff's -, bring your clique.

    Cocktails are good. I had a not so good experience regarding the service. Also you need to make a reservation, especially during weekends. Speakeasy style is almost there but not quite.
