BAR HOUT in Houthavens

Delicious food and drinks on a welcoming terrace (you can also sit inside when the weather isn't so nice).

Really nice staff and delicious cocktails! Impressive, very nice! 🍹

I love eating here; the people are friendly and do their best to make everything as good as possible (and they succeed). The food there is also delicious.

Great atmosphere, superb view, delicious food! The portions are a bit smaller but very good!

What a little gem in Amsterdam. Cozy and a great place to host a party. I had the honor of doing face painting at that party.

The service was great and atmosphere as well. Food portions are on the small side, but they let you know this. Definitely would go back of im in the area!

Cozy and atmospheric café in the Houthavens. Friendly service, tasty snacks, and a good drinks menu.

It does the work for some snacks and a beer. Best to sit outside and you can watch your kids playing nearby.

Yesssss this is a good spot!!! Mega good food….both lunch and dinner.....nice and cozy.....mega good menu and honest service…perfect also before you go to the movies 😂

Dear hospitality entrepreneur, I made a dinner reservation with you yesterday for today. I arrived today and was told that you had decided not to serve dinner after all. You tried to call me once (I was putting my child to bed and was unable to answer). It would have been appreciated if you had left a voicemail, cancelled my online reservation, or sent me an email. I consider it poor service that you did not inform me. Therefore, I hereby request that in the future, you cancel reservations if you are unable to honor your request.

Great atmosphere, friendly staff, delicious snacks and drinks, beautiful location@ Do you have something to celebrate too? Do it here!

Super nice place with delicious food and friendly service.

Super nice place. Hosted a party last weekend in the beautiful upstairs room. The food (shared dining) was delicious, everything was tasty! One tip, though: indicate better which dishes are vegetarian. The wine was good, service great. In short, had a fantastic evening!

Nice place. Delicious cappuccino.

Nine of us dined here for a bachelorette party, and it was truly fantastic. The food was excellent, and the service was incredibly friendly and attentive. A lovely restaurant with a cozy atmosphere. Highly recommended!

Cozy atmosphere and tasty snacks.

Great chill place, both for snacks and drinks both for dinner

THE SERVICE WAS AMAZING!!! Loved this experience! The food was great, everything was great! #loveflip

Lovely place. Delicious food, friendly and helpful staff, nice decor, and a great vibe!

I have to say that I had a certain expectation on this place and then they exceeded it with the food. The menu is wide and with lots of variations. The also cater for ur allergies. The plate is full filling and delicious. Staff are friendly

I didn't eat, but I drank a small beer. Great music and atmosphere, I recommend it.

Top service, always delicious food and good place.

Enjoy a delicious Chai latte. A very cozy and beautifully decorated bar with very friendly staff. And one in particular: the cat. What a sweetheart! A real cuddly toy.

Been there for brunch on a Thursday morning. Very quiet and peaceful. Food was really nice, big portions. coffee nice as well.

Simply amazing. Delicious food for great prices, the atmosphere is warm and cozy, and the staff is super friendly and professional. 10/10 would come again

A very cozy spot, also great to rent for a birthday or other party. Super easy to get to, and the park is nearby and very affordable!

The price is high, and it's best to book in advance, but you can also just walk by and get lucky. It was quiet on rainy days, but it was manageable then, and rainy weather is typically Dutch.

Delicious meatball and loaded fries rendang with apple pie for dessert, fast service and not very expensive, highly recommended

Nice place, good service, good food and drinks. Especially coffee is nice ! Affordable prices.

I can recommend the chicken sandwich. This was really great.

Great place. Good atmosphere. The location is nice and quiet.

I loved the taste of that rib-eye. It was cooked just way I want it. Nice and cozy place to eat and drink. That potato on the side could be little larger and also less dry. Friendly service too.

Really nice place for a lunch! Definitely will come back here!

Beautifully decorated, incredibly welcoming staff, and a wonderfully cozy atmosphere.

Gran café, fabulosos bocados de coliflor y patatas fritas y pollo tostie - servicio amable y buenos precios. ¡Recomiendo ir!

Good food and great terras in a quiet area

Nice place! Small and cozy inside and terrace with sun during lunch. Menu with a twist and fresh products.

All in all, a fun experience and definitely worth it! Nice menu (delicious Smash Burger, Rendang, delicious Austrian Grune Veltlinger wine...and beers)

Si este no es el bar de barrio perfecto no sé qué es. Buena comida, asegúrate de probar las costillas coreanas y especialmente el pulpo. Una buena selección de cervezas, vino a precio asequible y un servicio eficiente y amable que está atento sin ser exagerado. Además, dale la vuelta al gato mirando la escena.

Delicious food at Bar Hout with great company! Cozy atmosphere and very good service. Worth repeating!!

Super nice location, nice staff and dishes that are slightly different than elsewhere. Great tent!

Surprisingly nice food in surprisingly generous portions. Great cocktails and lemonades, a selection of beers too. The place looks great, it ia cozy inside, and sitting outside on a nice day is lovely. The cat is a bonus.

A bit out of the way in a modern neighbourhood. Great space for events with upstairs, downstairs and outdoor area. An interesting menu with an Asian inspired twist.

On January 25, we had a 3-course dinner with our fraternity in the separate upstairs area at Bar Hout. It was, in one word, amazing!!! A super beautiful and atmospheric space, a delicious meal, we could play our own music via Spotify and we were received very hospitably by the friendly staff. Highly recommended for larger groups! We really enjoyed it. Thank you very much again!!

Nice food, nice atmosphere and good service :)

We were here 2 evenings in a row, there's really nothing more to say 😀 The Cesar Salad e.g. B. is super original, and you rarely find that!

The food is of good quality, the portions are a bit small. But this is neatly indicated by the waiting staff. The boy serving was a little less excited about his work this evening, but that's probably a one-off.

Delicious food in this attractive tent. The shared dining concept comes into its own here. The Korean ribs are especially recommended! The service could be better: it took almost an hour for our dishes to arrive (on a Tuesday evening), a mistake was made with the order (which was neatly corrected on the bill) and we had to serve the service ourselves 2/3 times. calling to order drinks. All in all, highly recommended, hopefully the flaws will disappear with time.

We had a group of 20 ish people who showed up for dinner after a work event, the people at the restaurant thankfully accepted us into the bar, but the food served was invisible. We got one bread, one chicken starter dish, one meat starter dish, and one dish of boiled potatoes- to be shared by 2 people and all in small tapas bowls. And guess the price we paid later- €31.5 each. The staff was obviously kind and nice throughout and I understand it’s not their fault but maybe the fault of the kitchen for the poor portions Response: That night when asked about food quality and quantity- we did express that we were still hungry, and not satisfied. It was not just me, but 3 other people who expressed the same. If you think this is injustice, I can ask the 3 other people to post another 1 star review as well. I was initially kind about the service staff as I thought it’s not their fault if there is less food on the table, but don’t think they deserve it as well.

Hier kom ik NOOIT MEER! We zaten hier vaak als het mooi weer was! Maar dat is nu echt niet meer het geval! De service/bediening is superslecht! Je wordt scheef aangekeken als je drinken besteld, en als je glas leeg is krijg je ook geen nieuwe aangeboden! Als je even met een beetje volume lacht wordt je weggepest. Maar wel eerst wachten tot de tekening boven de 160,- is… want ja dan heb je al een beetje omzet, want verder was het terras helemaal leeg! De eigenaar mag écht wel even iets aan zn service doen, want dit is geen normale manier van een bar runnen!!

Nice and cozy restaurant. And nice service

Had dinner: rendang was very dry, service messy, something went wrong during checkout. Not worth repeating.

Last week in the evening with a large group (60 people) we enjoyed a 3-course menu with shared dining dishes. Great that there was a separate room upstairs for us with our own roof terrace. We all enjoyed it.

We had lunch here after a visit to the Het Schip museum, which is within walking distance (also highly recommended). Friendly welcome and service by the host. We had the avocado toast and eggs benedict (salmon). Generous portions and great taste. The Verdejo offered for a house wine price was tasty. A glass of tap water was no problem. Pleasant ambiance.

My avocado toast and bitterballen were very tasty and definitely recommended. The ambience is modern, yet cozy and inviting. Everything was fine.

Very nice lunch bar! Very relaxed vibe with nice background music. Toast avocado is really great! The hamburger is also very good. Definitely recommended!

Super good food, cozy place + nice terrace

Heerlijke lunch, leuke locatie en aardige bediening. OKONOMIYAKI was een schot in de roos. Nooit geproefd, maar wat een heerlijke Japanse met groenten gevulde pannenkoek. Ook Oesterzwammen met flatbread en houmous was erg smakelijk. Alles ook nog voor een schappelijke prijs.

Beautiful place with nice people.

Nice place for a party. Beautiful terrace in the evening sun with a nice view.

Top place, top food and top service!

small cozy trendy place. we had snacks and drinks. quick service despite being full. tasty snacks. trendy crowd. reserve beforehand if you want to find a table, even on a weeknight.

Very cozy place with great food and drinks

Nice local cafe/bar with some selection of breakfast/lunch food. Good for quick bite or weekend thing with friends.

We entered BAR HOUT with high expectations, lured by the numerous positive reviews online. However, our anticipation quickly turned to frustration. From the moment we arrived it was clear that the service was severely understaffed – a single waiter struggled through the entire place, leading to significant waiting times. We ordered four different dishes hoping for a varied culinary experience. However, the portions were ridiculously small and completely insufficient to satisfy our hunger. Despite the high cost of 60€ for two people, we left the restaurant hungry and disappointed. The quality of the food could not justify the minimum quantity and the value for money was completely unacceptable. During our visit, we even heard the staff openly admit that many guests complain about the size of the portions. It's beyond me how there can be so many positive reviews for this place - it almost makes you suspicious and raises questions about their authenticity. In conclusion I can only say that BAR HOUT was a bitter disappointment. I advise everyone not to eat here so as not to be similarly disappointed. The experience here was nothing but a complete rip off. Avoid this place!

I wouldn't recommend it, we waited an extremely long time for excessively small portions. The evening before we had a great 7-course meal in a nearby restaurant, which is why we also had high hopes for the BAR HOUT, unfortunately we were deeply disappointed. When I say dishes to share, I mean something different. What was served here were appetizers. First and last time. Thank you!

The Japanese pancake was delicious and the atmosphere was good. It just took a very long time before food and drinks were served, perhaps also because there was a large group next to us.

Very nice special offer (10 dishes for €29). Great ambiance, superrelaxed. Dishes are slightly different than in promotion video. Each dish has its own strong or particular flavour: very well thought of per dish. Cocktails are good.

Unfortunately everything took a very long time, even when we entered no one came to us. We had a coupon deal but ended up spending a lot more because the food didn't come, everyone ordered more because we were hungry. For 29.50 per person (coupon) they were mini snacks and not full meals and not everything tasted equally good. We had ordered fries and hamburgers, but suddenly the fries arrived on the table after 2.5 hours, which was part of it 😳 also because we had little ones, we left without dessert, everything just took way too long... it was included in the coupon deal, but we couldn't get that either, the answer was only "no" and the man at the counter walked away. Very impersonal we felt ignored. We will never come back . PS at the end a new employee suddenly came who paid attention to us, but we were already leaving, a blonde girl (just wanted to say)

A super fun place to throw a party, easy to reach too.

Surprisingly good tent! Very atmospheric, cozy and really tasty food. Operation super smooth and relaxed. This is really recommended.

There are some colouring pages and pencils for kids too

The 4+ stars is correct. Great food, beer and service.

Food quite tasty, but very noisy. Service mediocre.

Good bar with great food. We were here as group what gave us an opportunity to try almost all things from the to-share menu and a burger from the specialty menu. And we liked everything, but kimchi beignet and steak were the best. Maybe I would expect more pieces of Tuna in Tuna tataki. I liked decor and atmosphere in general, but it was a bit too noisy. Also, tables were too close to each other. Our table was a bit sticky. But overall I can recommend the place. It seems to be one of the best in the area so far

Bar hou is a beautiful place in the Houthavens. I was there yesterday with my sons for lunch after our BMS. I wanted to treat my kids and they love the food. I would love to come back there again. Friendly service. Alert and with the right service attitude. Perhaps the pricing is a bit high, but I think the real estate market is responsible for that. I think it's a shame that prices are so high everywhere in Amsterdam, including Hout. Honestly.

Wonderful. Friendly service, delicious food. Be sure to take the potatoes: they are divine

I think Young Neighbarhout with the pass where we as neighbors get a discount is a great idea! It's really nice that something is being organized for the young people in the area.

Nice place, nice service and nice atmosphere!!

Nice place to have a drink or eat. Highly recommended. Friendly staff and price-quality ratio is great!

Nice concept for a student evening! Especially Britney and Vere are very nice ;)

Went to the first Young Neighbarhout party yesterday and definitely worth repeating! Nice initiative

Topplek om de borrelen. Eten is altijd goed op smaak. Echt fijn om deze zaak in de buurt te hebben! Komen hier al sinds het begin. Goede bar voor feestjes ook boven!

We were here with our baby and it is a chill place with a pleasant relaxed atmosphere and good music. We had the Angus Burger, Tuna Tataki (roasted tuna/sashimi) and Cheddar Chicken Tosti. All very tasteful. The lattes were hot and the homemade ice tea was quite good. Suitable for wood removal.

Cozy place, best staff food and beverage. Near bus station and good vibes if you have kids cz near the football field and many more

We ended up being a big group and had a wonderful dinner at Bar Hout. They were so accommodating and welcoming. Service was exceptional and the food and atmosphere were really nice. So thank you for hosting us!

Had a very nice shared dining experience! The service was very good, the food arrived quickly and the service was extremely friendly. The shared dining concept was great and the dishes were of very good quality and delicious! The price-quality ratio is very good. Would definitely recommend a visit!

Nice meal in a beautiful place!

Nice, beautiful space. Nice hospitable reception and service. Very tasty food and it was also beautifully presented. Had a great experience and regret that we live in Brabant and can't enjoy it often.

Had a nice meal with colleagues. Friendly service and assistance

Delicious food and excellent service

If you occasionally visit the edges of Amsterdam, this is a great place to have a nice lunch. Dinner is also possible, but that for next time. We went for the chicken sandwich and the Angus burger, served with a delicious chardonnay. Then the top service from David and Jos makes it complete. We will be back!!

Incredibly delicious food, nice music, good service!

Mooie, rustige locatie bij binnenkomst een fijn, knus en warme sfeer. Vriendelijke dame die ons gedag zegt en ons al verwacht(gereserveerd). 2x kipsandwich 1, hour friet, 1, rode, 1z rose en fles bruisend water. Totaal €35,35 (gebruik gemaakt van een coupon) Eten, drinken en service was geweldig, mooi gepresenteerd op het bord. Echt een aanrader, komen zeker nog een keer terug!

Wat een pareltje van een restaurant, verscholen in de Houthavens. Klein, knus, kleurrijk

Really nice avocado toast. I loved it.

Delicioso!!!! The food is fantastic!!!!! It’s a 10 and definitely you have to try it. The service is friendly and fast and the atmosphere is cozy and casual. The only thing they have to improve are the toilets…. No towel or paper to dry hands and missing soap…. That’s why 4 stars…. But overall it’s a great place for dinner!!!

Heerlijk gegeten, ik kom hier zeker terug :))

Alles top - gutes Essen, faire Preise und nette Atmosphäre :) Gerne wieder

Gezellig zaakje om te borrelen voor de DoMiBo of de VrijMiBo. Eten = prima.
