Biblos in De Weteringschans

Great atmosphere and exemplary service

Emilio is the kindest soul.. Great place

Very cozy !!! Latin music if you ask! They have an app for ask music like a Dj!! 10/10

Biblos Amsterdam isn’t just a bar—it’s a sacred institution of good times, questionable decisions, and legendary hangovers. I’ve been going here for years, and at this point, it’s basically my living room with better lighting and a stronger tequila selection. I had my wedding party here, which tells you everything: it’s not just a place to drink, it’s a place to celebrate life, love, and the magical ability to dance badly until 3am. The owner? Absolute hero. Knows your drink before you say it, remembers your wildest nights better than you do, and somehow still lets you back in. This place has seen it all—impromptu dance-offs, deep life talks at the bar, and enough boozy nights to fund a small vineyard. It’s the kind of spot where time blurs, the music’s always on point, and the regulars become extended family (the loud, slightly tipsy kind). If walls could talk, Biblos would probably be arrested. But thankfully they don’t, so we keep coming back. Five stars, two Advils, and one hell of a place to write your best stories.

It is great place for everyone ❤️

What a great atmosphere in the Biblos. We had a reservation for a surprise party but what a party Emiel, Boris and crew made of it again. Old-fashioned craftsmanship! My girlfriend had an unforgettable evening (and I will too). Thx!

I love this place. Fun and friendly staff and atmosphere

Gorgeous setting, expensive drinks, unpleasant staff

After a 2.5 hour show by the Edwin Evers Band in the Melkweg, the four of us were ready to sit down and enjoy a drink (or a few more). We climbed the "mind your step" steps and entered a, for us, nostalgic world. Brown pub? Yes, the only concession was that there were no tablecloths on the table. We were the only ones for the time being, which meant that the boss and the staff had plenty of time to spend with us. Do you have tripel? No! Do you have Verdego? No! Do you have Chardonnay? No! Do you have any other beer on tap than Bav? No! Do you have Johnny Walker Rood? No! So we didn't get up, but switched to the house wine, the baco's and the black label/cola. And then... we had a great time chatting with the owner, requesting music with or without a video clip, no problem. The liquid snacks flowed freely, including a drink that resembled the regular dropshot that is normally not to be sipped, but this one was great! Then it was time for some brown fruit, here too a no, not from our own kitchen, but you can order via an app and it will be brought to you by the maker within 10 minutes. Great concept! I don't remember what we talked about, but I do remember a few things: 1. On the other side is the canal, ideal for women who eat too thick slices of space cake to go over their necks, and that the various stages of unwellness in that case can easily be solved by administering some sugar. 2. On average, 24 people drown in Amsterdam each year. In the case of male deaths, the police first check whether the fly was open, if that is the case, then suicide or a crime is almost ruled out in advance. And what did we have to pay for all the drinks and the wise lessons? Too little, but the four of us from Middelburg didn't mind!

Great atmosphere and staff very nice! I was here with a large group of friends and we all had a super fun evening!

The owner of the place is a violent man. I had a horrible traumatic experience there.

Kina*(sorry I probably misspelled this) was the nicest bartender. She gave us tips for around the city and taught us about the local liquor. Definitely recommend this bar before going to a show at the melkweg!!

A great find. Great atmosphere, good music and really friendly bar staff. Would recommend.

Lovely staff, I had a good time there on a Friday night and accidentally forgot my bag there. Emiel was quick and helpful in replying to my messages when I asked if my bag was still there. Would recommend!

nice café to be lazy, lots of students and bad music. only the slot machine never luck unfortunately it will ever work (not),

Lovely brown night cafe right next to the Leidseplein...

Local bar with friendly bartenders.

Beste Bar in ganz Amsterdam. Die freundlichsten Kellner die ich je kennenlernen durfte.

Top tent, altijd gezellig en fantastisch goed personeel.

Great place to have a couple drinks, really cool atmosphere, very small tho so be vary 👋🏼

Heel leuke atmosphere! De Barkeeper zingt echt goed mee! Kleine gezellige Bar, niet te duur.

Heerlijke muziek met fantastische bediening

Richtig gute Kneipe mit einem super netten und sympathischen Barchef! Definitiv ein Muss;)

Such a great atmosphere I had a great night here. The staff are so friendly too. My friend lost their phone and they went to considerable lengths to help recover it. Thanks!

Populair old school music style, lovely bartenders and owner (straight to the point and firm, but reasonable) and always good service even when they're full to the brim, enjoyed many a evening here! ❤️

Thank god for their music taste and 4€ shots. In one of the bars nearby I asked for a shot and it was 7.3€, almost cried then..

Classic Amsterdam student/party bar, always great service and fun times

Studenten bar, wel gezellige bruine kroeg vibes

Best bar in Amsterdam! Super vriendelijke mensen, altijd ambiance. Top zanger 😁. Groetjes van de Belgen 👍👍

Great bar with great staff. Good party vibe when its busy and a nice sit and chat vibe when its not.

Great bar, provided you like Dutch music. Nice people, young crowd, packed on weekends

Loved the place, good music, good bear and the staff was phenomenal

The best atmosphere and staff on Leidseplein. Best bartender I've ever met, with the best whistle of all time. Great music, great beers, just simply the best!

Had a great time with some friends there. Great musical atmosphere and lights, with great music playing. The bartender started to sing out of nowhere and sang really well!

Amazing place to come to for a drink staff are awesome definitely the best cafe in Amsterdam

Music far too loud, can’t talk, it’s a pub not disco

Zeer vriendelijk personeel, we hebben zelfs gratis shotjes gekregen.

Good music, friendly staff, low prices. What do you need more?) Wonderful place to have a drink with friends.

Don't get me wrong, place is small, bad playlist with 30 years of tacky songs but you sing them anyway and random videos hahah! Place is perfect for that last beer or for those 3 or 4 in between things. Emilio and crew will greet you in the entrance, warmest welcome in AMS!

Camareros muy amables, precios baratos. Muy recomendable.

They really go an extra mile during the Halloween on deco and ambiance. Drinks fairly priced and friendly staff. Clean. No a place to "sit".

Eigenlijk echt wel leuk, behalve dat je op dit moment ivm corona nu moet zitten

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Biblis. Great people, cold beer and plenty of screens. Bedankt!

Goede atmosfeer, houdt rekening met corona. Bas de barman was ook gezellig
