Café Langereis in Grachtengordel-Zuid

We visited this lovely little bar based on a recommendation. The atmosphere is really great and very cozy, especially if you want to grab a drink with friends. We can't comment on the food, but the drinks were worth the price 👍🏻

Cracking little bar, really friendly and sensibly priced with a decent selection of beers.

This is a fantastic bar with fabulous staff. A great atmosphere. Must return

Good service and good tunes on the speakers (fleetwood mac, supertramp and many more).

Very nice tipical Dutch place. With nice selection of beers, very kind stuff and very attractive prices.

Great bar, great history!! I recommend doing shots with Hester and Harris 🥃

Favourite bar in Amsterdam. Extremely friendly service, cozy and easy going atmosphere

A cozy café with friendly staff who look after you! It's attractively decorated with seating areas for both small and large groups.

Very charming local spot. That is a great place to get out on the cold and rain and excessive tourist infestation that you find all over. Amsterdam. Servers were friendly and helpful. The beer was cold. The Bailey's and coffee was warm and the snacks were delicious. Seek this place out for a nice break from the chill

I find it concerning that many reviews mention unfriendly or aggressive staff, and that the café’s responses repeatedly state they “checked the cameras,” “did not see anything,” or that it was “probably a different place.” From a customer’s perspective, these replies feel dismissive and minimise the experiences being shared. Unfortunately, my own visit reflected what others have described. The staff member I interacted with was rude and unwelcoming, and their behavior appeared unprofessional. I later noticed similar remarks in other reviews, which made the experience feel less like an isolated incident. Additionally, I was told I had to pay €25 for bringing a small birthday cake, with the explanation that the café also sells cakes. However, after checking the menu and photos available online, I could not find any indication that cakes are offered. Overall, the experience was disappointing and uncomfortable for a special occasion. Based on this visit, I would not return.

What a cool venue! We felt like we were in a Billy Joel song. The artists, who weren't actually a band but were rehearsing the same songs and then performing them together live, really made our evening special! The waitress was so lovely. The vibe was amazing—wow!

Amazing host positive vibe and good beer! 🍻

Great service, nice choice of drinks and a lovely atmosphere. Definitely recommended.

If I could give more stars I would have done it top people good prices nice place

Bartender RUDE and offensive, probably a drunk. I'd avoid this place with all speed plenty of better places right in the neighborhood. Bartender was actually yelling at people because they were not buying enough drinks. Would never go back here. Response to owner: This WAS your bar not another one. Check your cameras for when the bar was closing and a young girl was trying to use the internet to call an Uber while your bartender, whom was not getting the attention he wanted from her, cursed at her and intimidated her because she would not buy a drink even though she told him she was only 19. If your cameras run 24/7, you should be able to see this close to closing Amsterdam time.

I came into this bar on Nov 22nd to use the advertised wifi when my cellular broke, and I’d lost my family. The bartender followed me to multiple corners of the bar within the 5 minutes I was there, asking me questions like “are you alone”. Finally, as I’m standing by the door on my phone, he comes over and says I’m “acting like a b word” for not ordering anything. I explained that I would the second my family got here, I was just trying to explain to them where I was, and he stands over me, calls me “horrible” and multiple slurs that google will not allow me to post, and says “f you” When I asked him to please just leave me alone, he opens the door I’m standing next to and tells me to “get the f out”. I wasn’t bothering anyone, I was completely sober, and did everything I could to deescalate the situation. I’m 19 and visiting Amsterdam for the first time, and I understand tourists aren’t always given the most respect, but this was the most violent and uncalled for interaction I have ever had with a man and I am leaving this review as I reckon other women need to be aware before they go to this bar.

Very friendly service and a relaxed atmosphere. I didn't expect to find a chill cafe like this so close to Rembrandtplein. Only had a drink, so I can't comment on the food. I'll definitely be back :)

I've never in my life been treated so well in a bar.

Everything was perfect and waitress was super friendly and nice.

Cool, cosy bar with a great beer selection and great service. Was especially great as we passed for Dutch, always a joy. Thank you

We ordered a couple of coffees and cake so I can’t really rate the food, but I want to highlight the service. There was this lively and very nice (Italian, maybe?) girl at the bar, chatting with everybody, making coffee and really making the place feel welcoming and cozy. Sadly, we discovered the place our last day at Amsterdam (and it was a few meters away from our hotel! )… I would love to come back!

Small, rustic bar with a good beer selection.

A stylish retro ambience combined with excellent service – an ideal place to enjoy a relaxing break with a good beer.

Absolutely recommended! Small and incredibly charming! A place in the style of a classic corner pub, simply wonderful. Whether for a quick coffee or in the evening for a beer or other drink! The staff is super friendly, honest, and welcoming!

Nice pub with good atmosphere and inviting!

Crazy. Unique on this street, in terms of vibe. Classic and Amsterdam, just what you'd hope for after your date.

Such a wonderful place with a range of indoor and outdoor seating. The prices weren’t too bad and the live music really added to the atmosphere. Would definitely recommend

Didn't eat there, that's why 2 stars

The team is super nice and the cafe is perfectly located and welcoming. Totally recommend

Awesome duo behind the bar. Quality tunes and chill atmosphere. Would defo recommend. 👍😊

Phenomenal atmosphere and excellent service

A must-stop. Friendliness and service are top-notch.

I'm reluctant to write this negative review, but what I experienced last night was truly shocking and I just had to share it. I had to pay €2 for a dirty toilet, got knocked over by a drunken guest, causing my drink to fall, and the bartenders didn't intervene. Later, a young bartender treated me so rudely and even cursed me out, which made me feel very unsafe and uncomfortable. It's a shame, because the pub itself and the music were great, but after this experience, I won't be back. As an Amsterdammer, I don't think this reflects well on the city.

Nice environment, amazing music, nice beers, friendly staff, good prices. I highly recommend it!

Best bar in Amsterdam, even in the whole of the Netherlands. Love the blonde bartender, she is the best there is! Maxime en Pieter

A cozy bar with a small terrace. The beer selection was huge, and the snacks were also delicious (we ordered the bitterballen, which had to be ordered elsewhere). Only the waitress was a bit of an oddball. She gave us a strange look and acted very shocked/fake-friendly when we went in for a second time to have a drink after hesitating. Otherwise, it's a great bar when all the other bars in Amsterdam are closed.

Nice vibe and great service. We sat by the canals and it was lovely. They didn't have food other than some cold snack like chips so that was a downside.

best enviroment , best staff , best music! highly recomend!!

Very nice guy at the bar, and the drink came very quickly. But it was 2 a.m.

Best bar/cafe in Amsterdam for a fun evening. You must try it you won’t be disappointed!

Attentive staff and great place!

Very kind service and excellent playlist. Thank you :)

A truly beautiful restaurant, very attractively decorated, with a good selection of drinks. We didn't eat anything. The atmosphere was pleasant and the staff was really friendly. Our only criticism is the bathroom facilities. They definitely need some improvement. But despite this, we visited the restaurant several times. It's conveniently located on Line 4.

I loved this place, when you enter you feel an incredible energy

Update: they still use the beer profit glasses here. A glass of Jupiler costs €3.70 per 20cl. That means €4.60 for a vase. Be warned.

Friendly staff, great band playing the night we were there.

nice selection of beers, must try

Lovely brown pub with always a nice atmosphere and friendly service.

Great drinks. Very cool atmosphere

A very large selection of Belgian beer from the tap 😃

We stopped at this place for a snack after a whole afternoon spent seeing museums. The place is furnished in a basic and rustic way, quiet atmosphere, welcoming staff even if at times there was a bit of confusion due to people speaking in a loud tone of voice and also the loud music. Good cake, not exceptional but okay. Slightly high price for the cake.

Authentic Dutch pub with a wide choice of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks and they also do something to eat, both sweet and savory, the cappuccino and coffee are of high quality and I can finally drink a proper Italian espresso or cappuccino! What about when I have some free time and want to have fun whether it's midday or midnight and one of my favorite places also because they are all super welcoming!

Lovely and cosy brown cafe. Live music from the boys from Steelstreet was awesome and the hostess was very welcoming and friendly!

Great service and welcoming staff

Lovely little bar this. Nice atmosphere. And very friendly staff. Saving this for a future visit.

It's a nice place. The woman was very friendly and helpful (I'm a picky beer drinker), but she had some difficult guests I saw. Kids were also sleeping next to us it was way too late for them, probably tired of the whole day tourisitng.

Just after 11 p.m., a young man and woman who appeared to be a couple with a baby entered the store, quickly received drinks, and then left. It was wonderful to feel that there was no separation. Freedom. There are casual conversations, occasional band performances, and cheerful soul and rock music. During the three times I've been here, I haven't seen many tourists, but I've always been able to taste the beer, which has more flavor than it should. I feel like this place was the birthplace, and I want to visit again.

Great cosy traditional little bar. Good selection of beers. Loved this place.

Great pub in a top spot in Amsterdam! Between Rembrandtplein and Carré. Very enthusiastic service by a lady of Italian origin who speaks very good Dutch. Very atmospheric! Recommended!

Very service friendly and charming atmosphere 👌🏽

Great toilets, no chance to miss when piss. Thanks to the amount of space!

Small café with small snacks available. We ordered nachos, we got a big portion. Lush whipped cream on the hot chocolate. Toilet door could not be locked. That is a point for improvement. There is live music every Tuesday.

We were looking for a cozy place one rainy evening during our trip. This place was just what we were looking for.

I can say it's good 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍

We could have stayed here forever.

27.50 for a drink... be normal, you idiots.

Amazing vibes, amazing staff, always a fun night ❤️ also their life music evenings are super gezellig! Don’t miss it xx

The girl is very kind and friendly. Nice atmosphere and excellent music Very good chocolate drink.

Cozy spot even when busy. The personnel were really friendly and experienced! Definitely a more local spot where a lot of dutch people go.

I love this place! Great staff and great beer. 🍻

Super nice place! Very good service. We had a party here and were very well received. Definitely recommended, also for a drink ❤️ Thank you Francesca

Lovely pub by the canal, good atmosphere nice staff

Good beer.food portions small but tasty.

Great location, nice service, delicious café and cake

I was here having the best time, had drinks for two hours. Tried to get to the bathroom when leaving for the night got thrown out and had the worst experience ever. Only reason for the bad score is the worse person in the bar ever!

Nice jam session on the first Tuesday of the month! Just a tent where the vases are secretly smaller

Beautiful cosy Cafe (in the heart of Amsterdam) with warm, friendly and family atmosphere!!!

A small, nicely decorated bar, very welcoming for a drink at the end of the day served by an attentive team!

1. Hawawshi Amsterdam offers an authentic taste of Egyptian street food that is hard to find outside of Egypt.

Demanding your paying customers to pay 1 euro for each lavatory use is next level tourist trap greed

Nice bar with lovely staff . Great atmosphere

Great bar, great ambience, great people, tab beer, good coffee, comfortable seating, nice decor.

Very warm and cozy bar, admire the chandeliers on the ceiling which are magnificent. I highly recommend

Cool place ! Westmaller is 6euros. İt is 2 euros in supermarkt. But you should see ✌

Snacks come from elsewhere, arrive by courier. Those are pricey. Furthermore, a great spot in the heart of the city with a mix of passers-by and regulars.

Wonderful summer evening service with a smile, lovely spot near the Amstel.

Nice place to sit outside. Nice spontaneous girl behind the bar who can also be clear to people who think they can just walk inside to the toilet without saying hello first. Great location to go back there. Both hospitable and safe.

Super sweet staff and great atmosphere!

Extremely overpriced for the saddest negroni I’ve seen. Cute location but overpriced, used to be cute but became a tourist trap

Used to come here after work in the early hours of the morning and enjoy a beer. The atmosphere is completely different now - the music is ground shaking, so loud and at odds with the aesthetic cozy, brown bar. You literally shake with how loud the sound is - and it’s trash like Drake! Crazy. I miss the days when I could relax and have a conversation with my coworkers here. C’est la vie. Staff were nice though it’s not their fault the vibes were steaming trash

A very nice place on the bar map of Amsterdam. Great music and service. We were there on the king's day and a few days later, the prices were definitely different ;) I deduct one star for the size of the drinks (very small).

It was great experience! The staff who we met was so nice and kind 🤍 and the beer she recommended us was sooo amazing! Thank you! The best beer I’ve ever had in Amsterdam! 🍋🍋🍋 + and thank you for taking photo of us!🫶🏻

Lovely corner café with an intimate atmosphere. Service is good and friendly and on Tuesday nights they have live music (no cover).

It was a very cold day, so I stopped by a cafe on the way to warm up. It was nice to sit at the bar and have a light drink of wine.

Nice music to dance! We had great time on King’s day there! 👍🏻 gintonic a little small for this price but I guess it’s a standard in Amsterdam

Bad bar, use beer profit glasses and you still pay 3.70 for a beer. Rip-offs!

Always been a nice café, have been going there since it was still called Palma's Hoekje. However, the new owners are doing their best to ruin that. Also see the other reviews about their money grab with the beer glasses. It goes like this: a "vase" costs €3.70 here at the time of writing. You would think a reasonably competitive price. But when you realize that that "vase" contains 20cl, instead of the usual 25cl, the calculation is easy: €4.62 for a REAL vase. Good luck guys, I won't be coming here anymore.

Friendly cafe by Rembrandtplein and the Blau Brug. Lovely place, good Coffee, very chill & welcoming.

They use beer winning glasses here, it looks like a vase but is a whistle.

Took a short coffee break here. Very friendly staff and good coffee, pleasant atmosphere.
