Mooie Boules Amsterdam in Oostelijke Eilanden/Kadijken

Nice concept, but unfortunately no air conditioning.

Stopped in for drinks and ended up loving the atmosphere. Great energy, a fun crowd, plenty of craft beer options, and games that made it easy to settle in and stay awhile. We didn't eat, so I can't comment on the food, but as a place to grab a drink and enjoy the vibe, this was a fantastic find. If you're looking for a relaxed, lively spot with good drinks and a social atmosphere, it's definitely worth a visit.

Lovely place to play with friends while having good beers and amazing food! Its hard to keep playing when the rendang croquettes are on the table. Thank you so much!

Fun place to go with friends or an informal date. Reservation is advised. Staff will let you continue playing beyond your time (and no extra cost) if there is nobody next. Food options are limited, it’s more of a bar place. Interior has fun decoration with lights and different colours. Would recommend.

Staff is incredible friendly. Super atmosphere! We really had a great time. Thank you! Shout-out to the staff!

Great atmosphere! I was able to get a last-minute spot with a large group! Thank you so much.

Pleasantly surprised how hip Jeu de Boule can be. Nice place.

Cute! Love finding the french game indoors in a large bar! Very cool.

A fun outing with 12 colleagues from 4:00 PM to 7:30 PM. As the organizer, I arrived 15 minutes early to inquire about how everything works and to indicate a change to our package. The doors were open, but I received a message that they only open from 4:00 PM. After some insistence, I was able to pass on the change, but no explanation was given. We had 2 lanes for 1.5 hours. A drinks and dinner package. We received a sign with a QR code on it for ordering our drinks. Initially, that didn't work, and after obtaining a new QR code, it turned out that part of the assortment was not available via the link. Ultimately, no explanation was given, and we just started on our own. It was great fun to compete and learn the game! At 5:30 PM, we sat down at the table, after which the food was placed on the table in bowls and dishes. The food was delicious, but too little for 12 people. Upon inquiring, it turned out that this was it, and that fries and salad could be ordered separately within the package. That was a disappointment to us. Don't expect too much from the service; they were too busy with practical matters and paid too little attention to the individual.

If you’re looking for a fun and unique night out, Mooie Boules Amsterdam Oost is such a great spot 🎉 They’ve got way more than just games. You can play ping pong, sing your heart out at karaoke, and just enjoy a really lively atmosphere with friends. It’s one of those places where you can easily spend hours without getting bored. Definitely recommend for group hangouts or something a bit different in Amsterdam Oost!

Nice atmosphere. Can get very crowded and the staff loses oversight quickly. Customers need to enforce their own reservations for the table and lanes themselves. I do like the ordering with QR system a lot. This works very smoothly.

Good vibe, but food options are very limited and not impressive

My colleague and I have been here. It was very enjoyable, and we were also able to have some nice snacks.

Josephine is the best human ever!

Very nice activity, very good food

Alek is super and fun and handsome

Nice vanue for a game and some food

Very friendly people, amazing atmosphere! Had a small problem, which was immediately understood, and solved by the people working there. Will come again someday!

A total scam! We booked for a group and were extremely disappointed. Exorbitant prices for tiny snacks bought at a supermarket for 10 times less. The staff was very unpleasant and dishonest, even trying to charge us the full quote price a second time. Avoid at all costs!

Nice place to visit for a business outing. Went there today with office with colleagues from various ages, religion and background. Doing some jeux de boules indoor, drinks at the bar with wide arrange of ij beer the local popular brewery right next door and served by friendly staff. Afterwards a variety of small dishes served, also halal. Very yummie. Good choice!

It's fun to play pétanque, and the Indonesian food is fantastic! (from Ron Gastrobar)

Wonderfully relaxed atmosphere, very friendly service! It's great that there's an option to play with 3 or 6 balls!

Beautiful Yucatan thrown, and super cozy on Monday!

In 2026 I don’t believe that in this year not even vegan options. Of course our site of fries.

Snack was good, me and my team had so much fun.

Great place to go with friends, have a little competition, the prices and portions are good!

Fun place to relax and unwind with friends, while enjoying some cocktails, and delicious food.

we had so much fun! totally recommended :)

Early afternoon, we played a game of pétanque with the kids. It was very quiet then, a bit less lively, but perfect for us. Quick service, a fun way to spend a cold winter afternoon.

Had a nice evening, super nice staff!

Great staff, especially Milan, Luuk, and Coen. Very helpful and fast!

Extremely poor experience regarding their billing management. During our stay in September, we were wrongly charged more than double the correct amount (an overcharge of about €75). Despite months of emailing customer service and receiving multiple promises of a refund, we are still waiting three months later. It is unacceptable to be treated this way after such a clear mistake.

I’ve been there in September with my friends (that left very similar reviews) and have been wrongfully charged more than twice the correct amount (~75€). After several emails with the customer service, and the promise that the money would have been reimbursed, we still haven’t seen it after 3 months. Disappointing.

Played 90 min boule and then had small plates for dinner - lots of veggie options. Taste and authenticity not amazing but pretty decent - great place for large groups!

We had a reservation on a Sunday around lunchtime. The staff were more busy watching football than serving. There were practically no food or drinks available. Boules is a fun activity for a pre-dinner drink.

The staff were so fantastic I really enjoyed it

Super cozy place, with very enthusiastic staff, especially Milan, Coen and Rivka!!

Amazing place to start off your Friday evening! The beers they have on their tap are piece by piece delicious, i can strongly recommend cornet and the ijwit. The staff on Friday night was great, and gave the hospitality you expect from a brown bar!

Milan is great! It was a really fun evening.

We had a wonderful evening, starting with a fun game of pétanque and then enjoying a delicious meal together. The service was excellent, and drinks and food were delivered quickly. The rijsttafel is highly recommended! We'll definitely be back.

We had a really great date night! We received a warm welcome from the host and staff. The atmosphere on a Friday night is definitely there 👌🏻 I would definitely come back, highly recommended!

We had a fantastic evening. They have several pétanque courts and lots of other games. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

very sweet workers and a beautiful place!

realy nice place and nice staff

If you really want to play pétanque—whether it's a company party or a get-together with friends—then do it here. It's a large space on two floors. There are no fewer than 10 pétanque courts, and it gets booked up quite a bit. So, if all the courts are in use, the bar and kitchen can barely keep up, and the wait for your food and drink can be a bit longer ;)

Huge bar where you can play jeu de boules. Its a really nice spot, both the bouncer and the people at the bar were very friendly. We had a party and booked a part of the upper level with a private bar and jeu de boules field. There's a good selection of drinks and there are also plenty of board games you can play. Its a hidden spot but worth visiting!

What a great shop! Even though you have to order yourself, the staff is very helpful and friendly. We had a wonderful evening.

I recently went to Mooie Boules for a company party. We had a fantastic time. The service and atmosphere exceeded our expectations. Milan helped us frequently, and I must say he mastered everything perfectly. All in all, I have nothing to complain about this wonderful evening. Great boules, thank you so much! We'll definitely be back :)

Fantastic employees! Very friendly and helpful.

Great place, nice employees too

My family and I went to play pétanque, and we had a great time. The location is great, easily accessible by car and public transport. It's very nice inside, with a very warm atmosphere and plenty of courts to play on. We started with a bite to eat: delicious fries and bitterballen (Dutch meatballs). We played for an hour and then ordered dinner right after. Delicious food and incredibly good service. A great place for a family outing or a fun night out with friends; 5 stars!

Great atmosphere, toms of games, lekker snacks, lovely staff!

Boules court is fun. Food is good, but everything is served in a cardboard container, no plates. Main courses aren't served at the same time. One person can eat while the other has to wait. Noisy/loud.

The atmosphere, service, music, and decorations were all top-notch. It's a shame you had to book well in advance to play pétanque. I didn't try the food, but the platters looked delicious and the price was reasonable.

The food here was fantastic, but the bartender/server were completely rude. I have actually never been treated so horribly at a restaurant. I would not recommend to anyone and if I were the owner, I would seriously consider finding new staff.

Beautiful place and friendly staff 🤩

Had a great time. Friendly staff!

really great place for a group activity with friends! they have lots of games apart from the Jeux de boules as well :) would definitely recommend it to everyone

Super fun place, Milan also explained the rules really well! Thanks

Nice atmosphere, good service. Kudos to bartender Milan.

Great staff We had the rice table for 2. Almost enough food for 4. Added the ribs which were delicious. Wonderful beer selection. Had fun playing boules!!

Great place! I'll definitely be back, and Milan was wonderful!

We had a great time bouldering. Eating with a group of meat-eaters and non-meat-eaters is a bit tricky, as it was unclear whether some dishes were meat or vegetarian. The grilled cauliflower was delicious.

Great place. Don't miss this one!

Cozy place with boules, board games, jenga, food and the staff are super nice! :) Perfect for a day/ night out with a group of friends or colleagues

We went here with a team outing. It was super fun. There is more than enough space to not feel cramped and you can play jeu de boule, jenga and many boardgames. The food was very good. We had the mixed menu, which was delicious. It was enough food per person for us, because we were all women, but if you're big eaters i would order one of the bigger menus.

Great atmosphere! Nice music and good service. The food was excellent!

I’m Australian I love this place everyone should come down and have a beer it’s a absolute vibe

Absolute banger of a time, if your in Amsterdam you gotta make a stop by here

Literally best bar in Amsterdam bar tender is a G

Very friendly atmosphere, amazing music too

Absolutely fantastic experience. Awesome music and very welcoming of Aussies 🤙

Had a great meal and a nice evening!

Super fun time tonight, we played several games, even with our kids! Food was also nice, and of course excellent beers! we shall definitely come back again!

Great food and atmosphere! Fun activity for a Tuesday evening with super friendly staff :)

A really fun boules court in Centrum-Oost! Perfect for a date. Thanks to Milan the bartender for the great service too! 🌞

It was amazing! We had a wonderful game of bowling and enjoyed a beer. The bartender provided excellent service! We had a wonderful day. I definitely recommend going with friends or family!

bad service, terribly rude server and ordering site that works half the time

Great place, super cozy atmosphere! Besides pétanque, you can also play other fun games while enjoying a snack and a drink!

Very cozy indoor game of jeu de boules, nice with uncertain weather in the Netherlands!

Such a cool spot for an after-office drink or even a date 😉 The vibe is super relaxed and the staff is incredibly friendly. Definitely coming back!

Had a great evening! Excellent service from Milan.

Super fun location for a double date, Milan helped us a lot!

I was here for a double date and it was fun! Great music and friendly staff!

I was here on a company outing. We had a fantastic day, and the food was plentiful and delicious.

I couldn't personally recommend it, but what a fantastic afternoon we had with about 40 men and women on a team outing. Everything was absolutely perfect: the food, rice table, spare ribs, both halal and vegetarian, all available for meat eaters. The drinks and the snacks afterward were excellent. I highly recommend this place for a pleasant afternoon or evening, whether it's for staff parties, family, friends, or anything else.

After a somewhat disappointing experience with the neighbors, we ended up here. We received a fantastic welcome from the manager, Martijn; we immediately felt at home and appreciated. Great place, good beers/drinks, and staff!

You can eat and play boules here. The food was good, though I had to ask several times for drinks. You order at the table using your mobile phone. Not everyone likes it, but it works. Highly recommended!

Always a very successful team outing! Food is delicious :-)

Mooie Boules is always a good time. Play a few rounds of boules, grab a beer, and chill with friends or your team. Solid drink selection, tasty snacks, and a fun vibe that never feels too serious.

When we arrived with 30 people, we had booked 4 lanes, but they were still occupied. The time for the drink flat rate was started immediately, even though we had to wait quite a while. Additionally, none of the waiters cleared the lanes for us — instead, we were told to ask the other guests to leave, which is extremely unprofessional. Furthermore, I had ordered snack platters for 30 people, but it was far too little. The food that was served afterwards, which was also ordered for that many people, was clearly insufficient in quantity. We stayed there for a long time and spent a significant amount of money, and when we wanted to order more drinks, we were told they wouldn’t be made for us anymore, even though staff was still available. With such a large group and such a high bill, I believe there should be more flexibility.

Super fun place for a beer, chat and a game. Great vibe. Food decent normal pub food, service friendly and mostly efficient (they forgot one drink). Would come back.

Cozy atmosphere! Nice game. I wouldn't eat there that quickly.

Nice and atmospheric place. The only thing I missed was an outdoor court.

Staff is always friendly and service-oriented. Atmosphere is relaxed. Top place to play a game of boules with your friends or family while enjoying a drink!

We were invited here for a family party. We had a super fun evening! Enjoying a drink and playing games. I always get really excited about this.

Very nice place to spend time with friends. You can play different games, including board games.
