Once when Rotterdam was a shoddy place, this bar was won the best bar in the world by lonely planet. It still builds on this reputation and to be fair: there is always a fair crowd,

Lots of places to sit, friendly staff, can be busy at some nights. Remember to bring cash, they're old-fashioned.

Awesome spot, always crowded. Have a seat at the bar, order a beer and a Jagermeister.

Dutch cafe/bar vibe. Very busy and lively. Inside and outside seating and service. Fine place to go for a drink but not special.

Nice bar with decent selection of beers. Very middle-of-the-road, with occasional live music.
