Discover Vesper, now evolving into Santo, a central Amsterdam spot that has moved from Bond-inspired cocktails to a more relaxed all-day format. Drop in for a drink, coffee or a bite and see how the new concept is taking shape.

📖

Full description

Vesper was long known as an elegant, James Bond-themed cocktail bar in the city centre, praised for its creative drinks and welcoming bartenders. Recent reviewers report that it has been taken over and is being turned into Santo, an all-day venue serving cocktails alongside food, coffee, pastries and soft serve.

Some regulars feel the new concept no longer matches the inventive cocktail focus of the old bar, so it is worth treating it as a relaxed all-day stop rather than a destination for experimental mixology. Check current opening hours and menu before planning around it.

Reviews

I spent a great evening here as a solo traveller. Very exciting drinks menu, and the bartenders are very welcoming and knowledgeable with style. I tried Miche-nada but substituted for alcoholic beer and the flavors were unreal. Also tried some mezcal it was so smooth and clean.
