📖

Full description

Proeflokaal Arendsnest is a small Dutch-beer-only bar beside a canal, with copper pipes, wood-panelled walls and a large bar lined with taps. Reviewers mention more than 50 beers on tap, ranging from light to strong, with knowledgeable, professional staff who help guests navigate the list, and many call it the best beer bar in the city.

A small outdoor seating area suits people-watching along the water. It is a focused choice for beer lovers rather than a general-purpose pub.

Reviews

Let's just go ahead and get to the point this is the best overall beer bar in Amsterdam. The Beer selection is just phenomenal and the atmosphere is a proper pub. Lots of taps, lots of wood, big bar, little tables for your beer and lots of stools to move around.
