Le Pub in De Weteringschans

Is that assortment of snacks a dog bowl or something?

One star for the atmosphere. Not all drinks are available yet, and the ones they do have are tasteless. Too few staff, so it takes ages to order.

Today, November 9th, at 3:00 PM, an arrogant kid waited on us. Arrogant and unpleasant. No choice. Change seats.

The service was incredibly rude and insulting! Please go somewhere else…

If you're an American this is not the place to come. They tried charging me an extra 7€ just for being an American even after the fact that my friend had spoken Dutch to the waiter

Amazing waiters first class, she deserves a good increase of salary

Very good service. Friendliness and professionalism.

Top level in Amsterdam, only stones

Unfriendly service, beer not spilled properly.. High in price. Just a touristic place.

Accidents happen, but last night while bringing my wine, the waiter dropped the glass as she was placing it on the table, and all the wine spilled on me — I basically took a bath in wine. The glass shattered, and the broken glass pierced my shoe, ruining my brand-new sneakers. The waitress apologized repeatedly, and I kept saying “okay, okay, no problem.” But I expected they wouldn’t charge me, or at least give me a discount. Instead, they shamelessly brought me the full bill as if nothing had happened. I think it’s a terrible place — don’t ever go there.

Great location for a beer and to watch the world pass by. The service is a bit slow, however the burger was amazing. I totally did not expect this. The place has a great view and chairs oriented outwards. Good place for people watching.

I would like to recommend this place as one of the most happpening and vibrant place in the centre of Leidseplein. On my recent visit I went straight from the airport carrying my handbag and the waiter named alistar was extremely helpful and allow me to keep the bag in their storage and I can happily stroll around the area because of that.

Short pours on the drinks. Snooty service.

What a disappointment. I hadn't even finished my lunch or order when a waitress hit me in the head. Glass broke on my neck, abrasion, clothes dirty. Accidents can happen, but how this “company” deals with them is below par. The so-called “manager” came over, literally laughed at me and rescinded his own offer for a drink saying, “it was an accident.” This even though I hadn't ordered anything yet! When I went to tell the real manager, I was told that she had heard a different story and therefore did nothing for me. No excuses, no responsibility, no compensation whatsoever. Only contempt and rude behavior. This is the kind of catering industry where you as a customer are treated dirty. Unsafe, disrespectful and completely customer unfriendly. The negative reviews are therefore more than justified. Save yourself the misery and DO NOT go here.

Been waiting 50 minutes for a beer

Nice location and nice terrace. We had a selection of small bites, really not great, low-end supermarket quality. The service is non-existent and the restrooms... Best to avoid visiting them.

nice spot to sit and observe bywalkers. drinks were a tad expensive and the espresso martini was very strong, i‘ve had betters…

Very friendly and attentive waiters. The omelet and mussels were more than acceptable.

Expensive but local, toilets were fine but not great.

Quiet restaurant, easy to access and with very reasonable prices.

Relaxing place with excellent coctails!

we went here quite late at night - the weird combined seating with the neighbouring establishment was perplexing to say the least, we were unable to get a drink at times for up the 35 mins, which is ridiculous considering it was quickly approaching closing time. the staff however were kind and respectful and thus i cannot be too mad. except i paid €24 for 4 baby guinesses so in fact i am quite mad

I waited 25 minutes and no one came

Dry food and beer was tasting old. The waiter didn’t want to swap the beer and even blamed it on us. Would not recommend.

The manager very rude!! I forgot a bag with 2 new t shirts at 23:00 I came back at 01:00 and it’s was close . Also this day it wasn’t busy.. because it was raining… the other day I came in the morning and ask about it at 10.. they told me come at afternoon and manager will see the cameras.. at afternoon the manager or Barman I don’t know who was say that they don’t have cameras.. so funny we know that everybody in leidslplein have and the funny also is that in morning they have but in afternoon no.. all the le pub worth 80€ like the tshirts.. from now and then no one euro ..

Very bad experience, first the order was wrong. And a hamburger bun with the plastic of the cheese still in between is also not really recommended.

Large outdoor seating area with parasols 🌞

Avoid! This is definitely not the place for lunch! Just have a drink; the place is lively, but don't expect great food.

English guy taking orders asked if we could pay for the table, asked inside and he also indicated that we had to pay for the table. Manager not present, asked 3 staff members and indicated that their were managers. RIDICULOUS

Very bad service, max 4 people were allowed at 1 table unless we gave 50+ euro tip. Really ridiculous. Also very disrespectful to women…

Wanted to sit quietly runner said if we had to pay money otherwise we had to leave on Saturday. Bartender with bald head disrespectful to women, when we came to report for bribery he said that they runner was right and otherwise had to leave. Never come back. GET SOME RESPECT FOR WOMEN!!!

The worst food I have ever tasted. I have never asked for a meal to be returned. When I asked for the meal to be returned, the kitchen was closed. I had to eat alongside my friend, and so choose to continue eating these "nachos". Minimal meat, the consistency dry. Cheese over cooked and mostly stuck to the plate. The guacamole was a brownish colour and therefore not fresh. I asked for a wine in compensation - to wash down the dryness. Staff also refused that. I wasn't going to give them anymore of my money.

You are sent away if you are asked once to move your chair and when you do this they act as if you have not put any effort into moving your chair, then they say that they don't give a damn and then they call security and send you away anyway

Last night I went to this place with a few of my good friends, after we ordered a few drinks, a worker sent us out of the restaurant for no reason. We told the owner that we just wanted to enjoy a nice drink but we got a screaming worker instead. We payed for all our drinks and weren't even able to finish them. Worst place I have experienced in Amsterdam.

We were having a drink and were suddenly sent away because we were asked once to move our chairs, which we did, after which it was no longer possible to talk to the staff and we were told to leave, which is unacceptable.

What a mess, the staff calls you a faggot and throws you off the terrace for no reason, here you are treated like shit and you notice that the customer is not always king

What a shit place food is horrible and people treat you like shit

Very disappointing experience and unprofessional staff We were initially addressed because the waiter thought we were not seated properly. We then politely adjusted ourselves and remained polite. However, the situation escalated completely without reason: the waiter became very angry, cursed at us and even called security to send us away. We later tried to discuss it calmly with the manager, but he sided with his colleague without further explanation - which we can understand to a certain extent, but found unfortunate. We did not misbehave or behave disrespectfully at any time, and yet we were treated that way. This was without a doubt the worst service we have ever experienced.

Awful service. I asked to be seated and asked if main dishes are served yet because I came around 2 pm. They said yes. I got seated by myself because no one took me to my seat. I asked for mussels, they said “ we don’t have it yet” I asked “when will you have it” they said “whenever”. I find this service very rude and unprofessional.

We weren't expecting much, but we were still disappointed. We ordered Caesar salad and nachos. The salad was completely different than expected. It wasn't bad at first, but the taste was terrible (and not a feast for the eyes either). The nachos were very salty and made us thirsty. We were reluctant to drink anything because the glasses smelled a bit. There were three of us, and no one could finish our meals. For a €17 salad, we should have expected more. The waitress seemed very nice at first, but she ignored us even after she saw that none of us had even eaten half. Conclusion: We wouldn't go back.

Pub/restaurant always very crowded because it is in a strategic point and when you pass in front of it you can't help but stop. Whether for a drink, a coffee, an aperitif or a meal, you can always find the place. Quality beer and very well cooked and abundant food. The 200 gr steak is truly excellent. Perfectly cooked, tasty and very tender!!! Recommended place!

Nice and busy on the terrace in the shade..

Definitely not recommended. Real tourist rip-offs. Ordered a "cocktail" for 11 euros and got about 50ml in a mini glass. They should be ashamed of themselves. Avoid at all costs.

Please ignore previous review by Jakub. This place is chill and he agrees and is sorry

Paid 22 euros for 2 50cl beers. Why???? Just because you speak French? Lee Puuuubs so expensive

“What do you want?” That’s how I was welcomed to the bar. It took 10 minutes just to place my order. I got the beer fairly quickly, but I watched the entire halftime of a football match—and still no burger. Turns out, the waiter had forgotten my order. I finally got my burger an hour after ordering. But the overly salty taste made me regret even reminding him in the first place.

We stopped randomly, very warm welcome and we ate well. An excellent Cesaer salad and a very, very good apple pie. Installed on a terrace, in the shade, with the tram passing nearby without any noise pollution. We pay as we go, aperitif, main course, dessert. I don't know what the inside is like. I recommend this pub.

Very, very delicious coffee, a bit strong with a good crema and a balanced roasted aroma! It's a wonderful place to sit outside. The service is friendly and quite quick. You pay immediately when you get your drinks.

Hoegaarden on tap! Good vibes of the place!

A well placed restaurant in the city. Lovely outdoor area with heaters. Service was great and friendly. They even let me use the lift to gain access to the toilets as I'm on crutches. We have had 4 different meals here and all were well cooked and very tasty. Although the fish did taste a little of the bitten balls.(Curry), maybe use a single frier for those? Overall a great experience. We would recommend

Just skip it. Quality is terrible, service still OK, price makes no sense at all.

We had a nice meal in a nice café on Leidseplein. It's a shame that you don't get a cookie with your coffee and tea. 😉

Food was average. Meat a bit tough but overall pretty decent. Waiters were smiling friendly and quick to serve

You can enjoy delicious food here and the staff is very friendly. Definitely recommended to eat. A cozy tent. I am very satisfied.

Food is not the best, but yes, a nice location and friendly staff. Food also came across the street from another kitchen.

Incredible breakfast. One of the best I have tried on my trip to Europe. Ham and Cheese Omelette. Excellent Hot chocolate. Excellent. Price for two people between €30 and €35

Lousy service, no one knows where to deliver what. Food was "ok"

Congratulations to the staff. At least here people greet and serve you in Dutch. For that reason alone, this place deserves 5 stars.

What a drama. Rarely have I experienced such disinterested service. Holy shit. The toilets were too dirty to use. The bucket of pitch black water with a mop in it said it all. Left again quickly. Too bad.

The food is always very tasty. Just a pity that the boy who was serving on the terrace completely ignored us. It wasn't busy there were only a few tables otherwise I wouldn't have blamed him but this was just rude.

Worst service i have had in a loooong time The waiter was unfriendly af... i had to ask 3 waiters to pay 2 brushed me off saying they weren't responsible ant the other said he would come in a few min We waited about 25min, at which point i had enough and went inside to the bar to pay were i passed the same waiter doing nothing. I have nothing to say about the quality of the drinks there because we only had 2ice tea's and a coffe...which is pretty much impossible to screw up soo this review is just about thier service.

Super nice staff, the people there were also very friendly and the food was also super tasty!

Although it’s a nice Pub and the vibes are good. We ordered some snacks that took over an hour and still waiting…..!!!!!

Nice food the portion it good not small nor big.

Food was only ok. It's the staff I have the problem with....very disorganized and they seemed to have an attitude. Had to go inside to place my order.....staff not tuned in at all. Didn't even clean off the tables between courses.

Fast, friendly service on the terrace, toilets very dirty, only had a few drinks

Worst burger I've ever eaten! Had to pay in advance otherwise they wouldn't have gotten anything.

Tiny portions, sharing platter wad disgraceful, staff looked and acted like they didn't want to be there and really expensive, please avoid

Had a very nice breakfast on the terrace. Good service, tasty food and a wonderful view that can't be beaten. Got there just as they opened and the staff was very accommodating.

Great vibe. The steamed mussels is quite good. Don't expect you can get the food quickly. We sat just outside the restaurant (not the patio area), a mickey ran under my table.

If you want to pay a lot of money for more than mediocre food, you've found the right place; The waitress is very unpleasant and their technique seems well practiced. Once the order is placed, it asks you to pay BEFORE being served. Probably because once their crappy dishes are served, some customers refuse to pay. First of all, the mussels and fries for 24 euros!!! Like my son, I take a “bacon burger”; my wife a “Caesar salad” and my daughter a “Parisian hotdog” plus half a beer and a bottle of water. Total 88 euros. The hamburger is filthy, the meat is not beef but a kind of disgusting sausage meat, a salad leaf and a slice of bacon for €19 The chicken in my wife's salad is such a green-brown color that she won't touch it. The hotdog contains a sausage full of water from the freezer, like the rest of the bread. So ADDRESS TO FLEE, it's even the only place in Amsterdam where we ate badly. I think that its so-called Irish neighbor who offers the menu must not be much better so leave this side of the square there are plenty of restaurants in the small adjacent streets.

The employees are good but the management is bad. As soon as you order, they take payment immediately at the table, before the food even arrives. It is much more expensive than other tourist destinations. The place overlooks the square, and that's the only way it gets its money. I won't come again

Disgusting, expensive, cold, not a real restaurant... At least not one with a cook.

Even after waiting 15 minutes on the terrace, we were not helped. 😤 We got up and left. 🙅🏻‍♀️ There are much nicer places on Leidseplein!

Good place for people watching. The food is not great.

Had a lovely afternoon with my crossword at Le Pub! Service was awesome and atmosphere was really pleasant. Extra shout-out to the new hire in the staff whom were super attentive, professional and nice!

Very pleasant terrace in a lively area of ​​Amsterdam. An annoying downside: we are asked to pay when ordering. I understand that on the terrace, payment is requested when the drinks are served but when ordering... Never seen before!

Had lunch with my son last week. 2 croquette sandwiches, a coke zero and a Corona 0.0. I lost more than 30 euros. 1 croquette and a white bun😱. Furthermore, the seating was pleasant and the service was quick and friendly. Toilet was indeed grubby.

Very nice position but service is below 0 star. Waiter is not interested to serve but the worst is that he came with toothpick in his mouth. Food is average.

Had a meal and a couple drinks here, the staff are nice and friendly, the steak was very yum, I had mine medium rare and was so good.

Great place to have a snack and a good coffee. Also the atmosphere is vibrant and you have a nice view over the people that are walking on the streets of Amsterdam

Food is very poor, service mediocre. Only good thing is location

Very bad food although the place in nice.

The food is HORRIBLE. I wish I saw the reviews of this place before I sat down. Terrible.

Service was subpar, we were insulted by the waiter after we asked for our original order, the cappuccino was bland and the tea came in a bag... avoid it!

If you're not white, don't go here. They treated non-white patrons really poorly.

Was the worst experience ever never been insulted in my life. Due to being asian wanted money up front even though I asked them to run my card and even leave a tab open. Answer NO need to pay first but if you white eat and drink pay after this place needs to have a sign saying if we feel you poor and can not pay for your food we need money up front. We came from the USA so if I can afford that surely can afford a meal and few drinks. The owner needs to train his staff to respect all religions and race colour.

You don't have to come here for a nice drink. You get such dirty looks that you want to leave immediately. Not a good afternoon or a simple hi. No, a dirty look and an attitude of what am I doing here. The waiter who brought the drinks was nice and cheerful. Unfortunately, the atmosphere was already ruined before we could even order a drink. This means no second drink. We will look for another terrace where the staff at least gives something of a greeting or a smile.

Had lunch with my friend. My sandwich was very dry and he ordered a croquette sandwich which was literally a bun with 1 croquette. Both were served on a plastic plate. The toilets were very run down and not tidy. €25 for the sandwiches and both drinks.

Great terrace in the sun, great beers and really nice young staff! Will come again

We sat down for gin and tonic in the evening. The service was good. The place is large and spacious.

We enjoyed a drink with friends and I enjoyed a Leffe Ruby; I haven't had one before.

Move on, there is nothing to awaken your taste buds because the burger served is pitifully mediocre. And I'm not talking about the price 😣so expensive for the result!

The table was broken and wasn't cleaned! We were waiting for someone to take the order! We didn't get any cutlery! We got a full ashtray! The price is too high for the food. The food was good but not perfect!

Really terrible, food fell on the floor and is simply served!

Nice place, nice location, nice service, BUT prices out of this world. 5 small beer - yes some Leffe - 33 Euros - uff.

Good vibes: ⭐️ Good times with good people ⭐️ Pitcher with Swinckels was impeccable 🚫Feels like we are waiting 4 food at a restaurant, wierd feelings xd

Firstly , if you sit on the terrace you must first ask the waitress if you can sit down because she is too busy standing by the door , the after dropping the menu at is, while she chatted to her colleuges . Evenitalllu I got ip and. Walked to them to order 2 hoegaarden beers. Eventually after nobody coming to ask if we want to eat , we asked to pay and. We’re charged a ridiculous €7 for a 330ml beer Not even a pint Price conveniently not on menu

Terrible service, the food looked horrible, we just ordered a sparkling water and a beer and we paid 15 eur!! Insanely expensive for no reason. The drinks in the menu have no prices so they may charge whatever the heck they want. We didn’t even get a receipt!
