Surprise Bar in De Weteringschans

Lovely tent, nice to spin the wheel on a Saturday with friendly bartenders, definitely recommended because of the fun, the money doesn't matter

What a night! Really good music and really busy haha, the perfect night out.

We had tickets for an ADE event nearby, which was really mediocre. Then I happened to walk past here and still had a great evening! It's fun to dance there and they all play fun sing-along songs. Shots a bit on the expensive side but we take that for granted ;)

We spontaneously encountered this bar and decided to go inside for some free shots, but we stayed for the awesome team. The bartender let our bride sit on the counter and gave her drinks, we danced a lot, the team was so funny and sweet, the music was the perfect mix for our group who listens to completely different music and we enjoyed the night a lot. I even got to wear the golden jacket of the bartender. Thanks a lot 🤩

Cozy bar, a surprise every time! Tip: Spin the wheel for great prizes.

It started slowly but we are pleasantly surprised :) -love Sian

Jacket stolen. Subsequently, there is no response to emails, DMs or telephone.

Absolute insider tip. We were there from 11p.m. p.m. to 3 a.m. and didn't expect anything. Because the bar from the outside is totally inconspicuous. The bartenders are super attentive and even treated us to several rounds of shots. But the best thing was the number of women. I've never experienced anything like that before, we arrived and there were almost only women. And gradually came more and more. And we're talking about Dutch girls, everyone knows the beauty of these ladies. An absolute paradise. :). Music was good too, not a DJ but all time classic. Perfect for kids of the 90s ;).So I can only recommend it.

Racist employee in the door doesnt let internationals in. Awful place.

Always a party! Top staff always makes it a party!

I always enjoyed going to you, until last week I wanted to go to the surprise bar with my nephews. What a racist mess. We had already split up the group because we knew the consequences of going out with a black group. Then to my surprise the first half with a white girl did enter, we arrived 2 minutes later and the guard tells us that we have to buy a ticket. Do you believe it yourself? I haven't been treated like this in a long time. I saw the shame among the guards of color who couldn't say anything other than, sorry, the manager doesn't want it. Then I will be in Amsterdam with my family from Brabant, I want to show them how much fun it can be, but how wrong I was. And the manager still disgustedly turns his back on me. No more surprise bar for me because apparently you like to keep it exclusive. Dirty racists

Stairs are very slippery. I was grabbed by the neck and thrown out as my phone fell. Very busy inside and highly recommended.

Went here with a big one! Friendly staff and very cheerful

We had an office party there. It was great, they mentioned our company several times, and got us many drinks. It was crowders but still enough room to dance. They have a spole which was fun to watch poeple trying it out. Music could have been better: DJ keep changing the beat/song/vibe entirely after one to two minutes. (like Electronic to Dutch to Reggaeton). The music sounded very international too. (a bit basic). Otherwise it was a great experience.

Mia is the best barkeeper!! Keep her!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Free shots were without alcohol just a Sweet syrup, Vodka with Redbull was with very little Vodka and costed more than 12€, every song the staff had to ring a beg loud bell which was annoying. The Music started good and then was not that good mix.

Good vibes, nice crowd kind staff

Always good fun! Very Dutch, very Leidseplein and very “wrong” but always entertaining

We went around 10:30 at night and it was still pretty quiet. But my experience here was great - the music was so fun and the staff was really friendly. Drinks were inexpensive as well.

Nice bar to drink, dance, and have fun in Leidsplein.

Gezellig, maar het personeel deed erg nep en te erg hun best drank op te dringen…

Erg gezellige bar, het personeel is soms een beetje opdringerig. Verder wel een mooie tent!

Muziek is matig gemixt en shotjes lijken op smaak geen alcohol te bevatten. Wel een geinige layout van de bar.

Leuk personeel, goeie muziek en sfeer. Elke 30 seconden word er een ander hitje gedraaid. Enige wat ik altijd zo jammer vind is dat het, net als in veel andere barren rondom Leidseplein, zo ontzettend druk is dat je bijna niet meer kan staan..

a horrible bar. they’re constantly ringing this loud cow bell at the bar which is super weird. they also played a frozen remix when i was there? just feels unsafe and such a weird atmosphere and crowd

Ik vermaak me hier al jaren prima, het is zo'n tent waar het fijne barpersoneel druk is met veel shotjes, sirenes, ratels, rookmachines en zo en meestal is het lekker druk. In de loop van de nacht ontstaat er vaak een aardige laag drank op de vloer, je moet er van houden 😁

Great atmosphere, fun bar tenders and banging music. If you don't like crowds this one isn't for you as it can get quite tight, but it's definitely one of the best in the area. Drinks are pretty affordable too especially the large array of shots

Great place if you can get in. Speak Dutch as you are more likely to get in this way. Once you're in you must pay 1.50€ for the toilet. I'm pretty sure this is illegal. Imagine paying everytime for the toilet in a place that's serving drinks.That's crazy Fun time but strings attched.

Tot de nok toe volgepropt met mensen geen plek om fatsoenlijk te staan. Aardige beveiliging maar beide aan de deur en binnen wordt niet gelet op hoeveel mensen er binnen zijn

Gezelligste tent van Amsterdam Een erg sfeervol en gezellig café, super vriendelijk personeel

Op zaterdagavond voor het eerst geweest. Erg leuke feelgood muziek als Abba en klassieke hits komen voorbij. Wat kleiner maar dat maakt het gezellig, wel soms veels te druk dat je amper kan dansen.

Außergewöhnlich gute Stimmung mit der Klavier-Live-Musik. Sehr gerne wieder.

Gezellig(e) café/kroeg, leuke muziek (meezingers, hiphop, house, beetje van alles wat), live dj die aan het mixen was, gezellige vriendelijke mensen in de tent en een barman die leuk deed met de mensen die bestellen. I don't understand the negative complaints about this club, good vibes (good music, different styles of music, live dj mixing) from the visitors as well as the crew that makes fun in a good way with the people that order drinks. No problems at the enterance, just following the covid measures.

Sorprendentemente muy bien!!! Divertido, buen ambiente y buena música!!

Leuke vibe, genoeg ruimte om je ding te doen

Leuke bar. Niet groot maar dat geeft het ook zeker sfeer

Locale molto divertente con personale davvero simpatico e gentile,prezzi un po cari

Heerlijke bar voor e borreltje en en dansje

Loud and full of crowd. Don't take your best clothes here unless they can be easily washed from spilled drinks ;-) I had good time here.

tolle Bar, gratis Shots inkludiert!

Nice people, good drinks, excellent music

Interesting bar / club. Still impressed with the DJ / bar tender, who was basically running the place by himself!

Leuke avond gehad, vrolijkere uitsmijtcrew vergeleken met de andere tirannen van uitsmijters in de straat. Kan zeker een sardienblik worden.
