About

This bar is the best place to try your first ever jenever! Even if you had it before I bet you never tried it the way they serve it in this bar. Jenever is paired with a matching syrup to create a lovely taste of fruit and alcohol. They have hundreds of different tastes and you can mix them up together however you like.

Drinks are resting on the beautiful old shelves dating all the way to the 17th century. The place is full of history, beautiful old posters and decorations. The bartender will gladly tell you all about the history of jenever and teach you how to drink it correctly. This is a standing bar, so you just come in for a drink or two, it’s not really a place for a long sitting drink. This place is more like an experience than just a regular bar. Make sure to visit it!

Visiting tips

- There are only few sitting places in the bar, it is more a standing place for a drink or two, not the the whole evening

- It gets pretty busy there in the weekends but people don’t stay long so it is worth to wait a bit
