Bar Mash in Oude Pijp

Nice bar for all times of the day

The food and service were great, but two of the Atmosphere stars are lost due to 1. the deplorable state of the toilets and 2. the lack of water during a lunch break. (This country has so much water... and yet tap water is not available as standard. €7 for a bottle of tap water?)

Good service. Pleasant atmosphere, but it was hot inside. The food was quite tasty, but not quite Thai. It lacked the spices and ingredients that give Thai food its distinctive flavor. The Tom Kha was pleasant, but still a mushroom soup with chicken. And the red curry was more reminiscent of Hungarian goulash in flavor and ingredients.

We come here regularly. Nice terrace with plenty going on around it, delicious Thai food, and friendly, fast service. Just go for it!

Mediocre experience. The chicken cashew was really uninteresting and the satay was also very basic. The tom ka kai and the papaya salad were okay, but just didn't quite have the Thai flavors you're looking for. It also took about 45 minutes for our food to arrive, and it wasn't even that busy. The staff were nice though.

Food is way below average - especially for this price. I got a tasteless red curry with dry meat and basic Dutch veggies that don’t belong in a Thai curry. Atmosphere and service are very nice though, which in total sums it up to two stars for me.

Let me start with what was good... the terrace is cozy, and the male waitstaff was very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, the food was very disappointing for all four of us. I had a wok dish with shrimp and white rice. The vegetables and shrimp were served on top of the rice, causing the rice to be completely soaked in the liquid from the wok dish. It reminded me of a wok-to-go where everything is put into one container. The vegetables were not crispy, but soft and soggy. My girlfriend had soup that was far too salty. The other two dishes were also disappointing. We had been looking forward to delicious Thai food, but unfortunately, none of us were satisfied. However, I do want to compliment the young man who served us. He took our feedback seriously, listened attentively, and responded kindly. We really appreciated that.

Damn, how the food has changed!!! I used to love going to Mash (everything seemed the same except the new name), but they'd be better off closing this kitchen. The terrace was quite cozy, but that's not exactly an achievement at that location. There were two staff members; the lady seemed new to the hospitality industry, but the young gentleman definitely knew how things should be done, hence the 4 stars. Luckily, he asked how the food was afterwards; as ex-staff at a Thai restaurant, I was able to offer some tips! The satay looked like it came from an Oriental packet, and two dishes were simply scooped into a bowl over the white rice; this didn't do the appearance any good, but the taste turned out to be even worse. A third dish had such large chunks of beef that it became almost unappetizing. The terrace is pretty OK for a drink, but the kitchen seriously needs an overhaul. I wouldn't recommend it anymore. Hopefully, they find their way back soon 🤞🏽💯

The service is really top-notch. However, don't come here for the cocktails. It's not nice to sell pre-made cocktails as regular cocktails.

The food is very good. If you like spicy food, this is the place for you!

A great place to eat after walking around the local area.

Perfect in all terms ! The food is delicious The service is adorable And it’s very cozy I would put 10 stars if I could

The food was very good, now it is very bad.

Food was good. Handed me the lump to clean the table myself

Super fun vibe, right in the middle of De Pijp! Our waiter Willem always knew how to find us at the perfect moment!!!

I had been here multiple times as bar mash, first time I’ve been since it’s called Bar Mai, not sure if they changed chef but I did not enjoy it as much as before. The pad thai was completely different and the red curry tasted tasteless and with cheap vegetables.

What a nice place. Apparently new owners with a Thai chef making delicious snacks. But also very cozy just to grab a beer!

It was amazing in one word🤩 nice atmosphere and delicious food

Lovely atmosphere and fantastic food!

This was my first time at Bar Mash and I absolutely loved it! The food was so good, flavorful, and honestly exceeded my expectations. Such an amazing first experience, I’ll definitely be coming back again soon. I highly recommend the Tom Kha Kai

It used to be fun when Bart and Piet were there. Now it's been taken over by neighborhood CEOs playing Monopoly with the street. A plastic, kitsch patio, zero class, zero soul. Authenticity has long since been checked out. Maeve's window, now this... all the same copy-paste capitalism vibe. The food is still decent (a miracle), although the kitchen hygiene also looks a bit "we hope for the best." Do yourself a favor, save your money and literally sit somewhere else.

good craft bier but staff was rude to my friends, and they put extra 15€ to our receipt

A small, cozy restaurant with a spacious terrace near the Albert Cuyp Market. They don't have an extensive menu, but the food was delicious. The portions are ample, and the price-quality ratio is definitely right. Friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Cute atmosphere. Nice staff. Amazing Thai food, my personal favorite in Amsterdam

Dog friendly ✅ Food was delicious! Service & atmosphere was incredible! Please try the spicy margarita with mezcal! 🤯

Authentic Thai food, cosy terrace and interior, reasonable portions for a reasonable price at a central location near the Albert Cuyp Market, Amsterdam's largest and most popular outdoor street market, operating six days a week in the De Pijp district

Was very happy to come here the first time. Amazing food actually super nice. Cool drinks Good service Value for money Only thing the seats inside not very comfortable at all and very noice the staff making loud jokes to each other , I mean loud so we could not talk.

Worst service that I had in Amsterdam since living here. Fish cakes were greasy and horrible. And both waiter couldn’t care less about the service provided. Simply don’t go. Enjoy Amsterdam elsewhere

If you like authentic , delicious Thai food at reasonable prices this is the place for you! The chicken satay is the best in Amsterdam!

Really wonderful service and lovely patio. They have an allergy menu and had a couple gluten free options. I got the red curry and it was delicious. Celiac safe!

Although ordered tofu starter, we were served chicken skewers! When the correct order came through it was really good. Service was quite slow but maybe because it was busy. Nice place to sit outside and relax with friends.

I didn't expect the food to be this flavoursome ! We went for chicken pad Thai and red curry with shrimp, both absolutely delicious. Great atmosphere at the sunny terrace in the middle of De Pijp.

Honest price, best THAI food. Service Amsterdam style. Come back for the atmosphere and the food

Nice thaï place, good cocktails!

Cute restaurant and bar. Food was great. The papaya salad was delicious. And it is affordable food with big portions

Amazing food but I would say better than the food is the cocktails!!! Definitely worth a visit

Very tasty food and delicious drinks. Relatively expensive

Nice place to have a drink and some food. Staff is awesome and very friendly.

Lovely bar to hangout with friends, especially during the warmer days on the spacious outdoor terrace. Was quite busy but waited 5 minutes and got a seat outside for 4 people. Super close to de pijp and easily reachable by metro or bike. Service is super attentive and friendly. Got drinks quite fast. Food took longer but is super authentic and delicious. Talked with the cook when visiting the toilet. A very tiny kitchen but just one person cooking and making all that magic! Highly recommended especially for a small bite, drinks with friends!

Mash is great! Perfect spot in De Pijp - I recommend their Pad Thai, which is also available with a vegetarian meat substitute!

Waiter was rude, passive aggressive and still demanded a tip. Food - starters were good. Mains are average. Nothing special. If you sit inside atmosphere is tense and just a downer.

Friendly staff, big portions of food and tasty, good area to walk around and hang out

Some of the best Thai I've had in a long time!

Visitamos este bistró tailandés en el distrito de museos de Ámsterdam con muchas esperanzas, pero desafortunadamente, fue una noche muy decepcionante. Fui con mi madre y mi hermana, y ninguno de nosotros quedó impresionado con la comida o el servicio. Pedimos tres platos: un Pad Thai revuelto - freír para mi madre, un revuelto de pimienta de ternera - freír, y un Massaman curry de ternera. El plato del salteado de ternera era el único que era algo aceptable, pero los otros dos eran realmente horribles. La carne de res en el curry Massaman era extremadamente masticable y arenosa, completamente no comestible. Señalamos esto al personal inmediatamente, y aunque se ofrecieron a reemplazar el plato, solo pedimos que la carne de res se cambiara por pollo en su lugar. Desafortunadamente, el pollo que salió era insípido y seco, y no mejoró el plato en absoluto. Los fideos Pad Thai revueltos y fritos también fueron una decepción, insípidos, con pollo igualmente blando. Mi madre apenas tocaba su comida. Planteamos nuestras preocupaciones y el personal admitió que Massaman no estaba a la altura, sin embargo, todavía nos cobraron por ello. Solo después de cuestionar el proyecto de ley retiraron el cargo, pero continuaron disputando nuestras preocupaciones sobre el revuelo pad tailandés, alegando que nadie se quejó nunca. Tengo que admitir que tenía mejor Pad Thai preparado en un puesto callejero en Londres. He estado en Tailandia antes para poder decir cómo debería ser la calidad y el sabor. En general, la calidad de los alimentos estuvo muy por debajo de las expectativas. Este no es el lugar para ir si usted está buscando auténtica o sabrosa cocina tailandesa. Nos fuimos decepcionados, y desafortunadamente, no regresaremos. Si pudiera dar cero estrellas, lo haría.

Really lovely evening at Bar Mash. Nice area, great to sit outside. The food was absolutely amazing- incredibly tasty and plentiful. Good, friendly service. Thoroughly recommend this great restaurant.

Delicious food, helpful staff and a super welcoming place

Cute little thai restaurant / bar that has the kitchen open until 11 (In Amsterdam this great service with late food is impossible to find). Great drink selection and superbe pad thai & currys

the food and drinks were really really great and the atmosphere was super comfortable! the only thing was that it was a little pricy but still “normal” for amsterdam standards. would definitely come again and recommend!

The food here was surprisingly good. I thought with the name this place would be more of a bar, but they serve both amazing cocktails and really decent food. We had the spring rolls and 3 different curries, and they were all delicious. The only critique I have is when we ordered our drinks, we were told quite late that one of them lacked ingredients and were told to pick another.

There is a fairly small map. The food is good, but also quite expensive for what is on offer.

Great little Thai restaurant in the Pijp! Excellent value for money, and above all, absolutely delicious food! We always stop there several times when we come to Amsterdam :)

We just had a few drinks, but the owners are amazing!!

Pleasant and friendly help on a sunny terrace day in Amsterdam!

It was a nice experience. The food was ok.

Very tasty food and very friendly and personal service. Bottles of water were on the table for free and I was not shocked by the bill and that is sometimes different in Amsterdam. I will definitely come back!

An excellent Thai restaurant with unbeatable value for money! Twice I come to Amsterdam, twice I come to this restaurant Excellent food and friendly service plus the location is pleasant, you can enjoy the terrace in the sun or thanks to the outdoor radiators it's perfect

Pad Thai Kai was a bit dry, but still tasty. Service was excellent.

Super good food and cocktails 🍸 The staff is very nice too!

Cozy bar with tasty Thai food. Nice staff Highly recommended

Perfect dinner+drinks evening with mates or the bestie. One of the few places in the area with bang-on Thai food and a boss level bar & crew. Nice big terrace for summer and a cosy high table bar setup inside makes it perfect for groups of four starting out a big night in de Pijp.

My favorite spot for when I want to eat something quickly! Food is always delicious and the staff is super nice😊

Very cozy restaurant/bar! Best to go during lunch as they have one of the best pad Thai I have ever tried for a lower price

Highly recommended!!! Very authentic and delicious!

Both a Thai place and bar! A bit too strict with the sitting policy though, remember if you’re more than 6 people you can’t all sit at the same table (or maybe we got unlucky with the waiter)

I ordered Tom Yum, it tasted good, but it’s not quite Tom Yum. This soup uses mushrooms and chicken.

Great place and delicious food!

Cute little bar with amazing Thai food! The taste is incredible and really authentic! We had the curry and noodles (both veggie/vegan) and were impressed by the great quality! ❤️

Please give me more of that soup

Ate here two days in a row on our trip. Food and drinks are incredible! Staff is friendly and helpful- great music and vibes. I had the coconut soup with chicken and mushrooms with a side of rice and my husband had the pad Thai.. both amazing.

Deliciousssssss food wow, and super friendly staff!

Delicious food, friendly service, reasonably priced. Spacious heated outdoor terrace.

Super cozy place for a Thai bite to eat. The staff is friendly. Food also very good!

Sat on the terrace this afternoon and had lunch. Fast and friendly service and after ordering we were also asked if we wanted a glass of water. Free. Food tasted delicious, but the main component of our two dishes was very meager. There were three shrimp in my wife's entire dish and my dish only had a few pieces of beef. Despite this point of interest, we still had a delicious lunch.

Food is very good. But the most i like about here is staff. They all are very kind and helpfull

Great thai restaurant find in a lovely, but busy area of Amsterdam. We had the chicken pad thai and the beef with garlic sauce. Both dishes were very tasty and included fresh ingredients which gave it more of an authentic feel. The restaurant has a great vibe with the majority of patrons opting to sit outside in the terrace area. The staff were super friendly!

Not a good place to visit if you suffer with an allergy

Our favorite gourmet bar in Amsterdam. Pad thai’s are really good

The food? Insanely good We tried a bunch of different main courses and all of them were Slappin‘ Cocktails were good

Great. Solid thai and lovely crew.

Chance sometimes does things well, pleasant service and finely prepared meals. I recommend you take a break there. Thanks for the music!

Amazing food, staff is very friendly!

Busy square in The Pijp area, real Thai food by real Thai people. Supertasty. Would definitely recommend!

İt is nice place to have seat and rest with coffee. Price are normal. You need to park vehicle on road and walk here. But parking fee is too expensive. 6 euro for an hour.

Hot garbage. Cocktails as basic as they get.

The food here is incredibly wholesome! My tummy and my heart were so happy with every single bite! I ordered the Pad Thai and the green curry (my fav).

Nice place but it didn't excite me. The service guys were nice but our table was on a slope and the chairs were quite uncomfortable. The food, in general, was good but the flavors could not be distinguished as the dishes we soon had were full of spices, unfortunately poorly balanced. We also had some tomato juice which turned out to be spicy, even though it wasn't listed on the menu

Really good and fresh food and authentic taste

lovely service and really good food

I recently enjoyed an exceptional lunch at Bar Mash, where both the food and service were outstanding. The highlight was undoubtedly the Thai cuisine, perfectly seasoned and authentically presented. But what truly elevated our experience was the attentive service provided by Katja, our server with distinctive violet hair. Her professionalism and enthusiasm were apparent in every interaction. Katja's keen recommendations and swift service ensured that our meal was not only delicious but also smoothly served. Her outstanding dedication to customer satisfaction was noteworthy. It's clear that Katja is an invaluable asset to the Bar Mash team, bringing not just skill but also a delightful presence to the dining experience. Because of her, I will definitely be returning and recommending this spot to friends. Thank you, Katja, for making our lunch so special!

We were looking for a cozy place to have something to eat while strolling around the Albert Cuyp. Just walked down a street and there we saw Bar Mash. We love azeatic food so we just took a chance. Once inside we were served friendly and cheerfully. Had the laab kai from the menu and have never eaten such a surprising, innovative and delicious dish. What a flavor bomb👌 It came from a tiny little kitchen with room for 1 cook, very nice. If we are ever in the area again, we will definitely have a bite to eat here again! 😃

Amazing place!! Food is delicious, staff is amazing and nice vibe! New cantine

Very top! I recommend going to eat, the dishes are cheaper than at dinner! Very rich

A chill place for food and cocktails! We suggest that you try the pad thai (I had the tofu version and thoroughly enjoyed it), along with the Raspberry Clover Club cocktail which is very refreshing and matches very well with the pad thai!

Good service and delicious food.

Been going to this spot for 3 years now and it really is great. Inside has a modern decor with great lighting, and outdoor space is chill and great with a group of friends. Service is good and staff is helpful and friendly. Now say what you want, but the Thai food here is amazing. The pad thai is so good, the chicken satay is so good, and the spring rolls are great. Highly recommend.

Absolutely delicious curry and snacks. Great service, cozy bar.

Delicious food and cozy atmosphere!

Nice place to come after work for drinks with your friends !!! Very friendly service and cosy atmosphere!!!

Incredible food, great service, best location and very very good prices.

Amazing ! One of the best restaurants I have eaten in! Tasty and delicious cuisine
