THE BUTCHER Nine Streets in Burgwallen-Nieuwe Zijde

The staff are helpful, but the food is just okay; I wouldn't repeat the experience. Honestly, the food was awful, and I don't know why our friends praise it so much. We paid 27 euros for burgers and a cola. The best thing was the helpful staff. My meat order arrived undercooked, and I asked them to replace it, which they did.

Not the best service this evening… not one team member looked happy to be working. Service was slow and incredibly unfriendly. I got up for a less than 20 seconds and the server cleared my tray and binned my food and personal item! Not great at all!! Replaced the binned fries with cold ones which was not enjoyable to eat and couldn’t stomach it. Safe to say, I won’t be returning on my next trip.

No need to book, I arrived at 7 PM and found it empty. They have a Smash Burger cooked on a griddle. I got a double and it was good, light, and the bun was soft. I also got the regular Butcher Burger, where the meat is grilled over a fire in one thick patty, and the bun is heavier than the Smash Burger. They were all good, honestly. Important update: I visited them again and they told me the food isn't halal, especially the meat. Only the chicken is halal. The meat is indeed beef, not pork, but it seems to me, from what I understood from them, that it's mixed with pork on the same griddle, so I felt it was important to point that out.

Their service is bad and they say the food isn't halal.

I highly recommend this place! Fresh, top-quality ingredients, cooked right in front of you. Everything is delicious and top-quality!

Smashburger: Delicious and light

The chicken burger is delicious and has a lemon marinade, the meat smush is yummy, and the sweet potatoes are the best thing they have.

Ordinary and expensive… and extra salty

Burger was kinda ok, but fries was awful and service was really bad

The restaurant is clean, you can order from the machine right away, and they're fast! I liked the smash burger, but the fries weren't the best.

Is the restaurant serving halal beef burgers?

A must-visit place. Beautiful atmosphere, excellent food, and friendly staff.

The burger is delicious and light; I went there twice.

The burger was delicious - some are not made fresh but reheated in the frier along with the fries. Did not like to see that when I was picking up mine .

All burgers can be served with gluten-free bun. Very good, recommended!

Thank you Oscar for great service 👍🏻

Excellent sandwiches, delicious sweet potato fries

Beware this store stops serving food well before closing time listed.

One downside here is that they make all patties medium well and above, even if you dine in. I've added American cheese on top, and it could have used more heat on the burger. You serve the food yourself.

Okay, but not memorable. The place is quite noisy...

I tried the crispy chicken burger, it was absolutely amazing! It's definitely worth going back for.

The best burger in Amsterdam. OSCAR is a superstar.

The burger was tasty, the bun was cold, and the cheese hadn't melted. I had high hopes, but these details surprised me.

I’ve heard great things about this restaurant and it was highly recommended, unfortunately it was below my expectations. The bun was cold and it ruined my experience, I ended my meal with a shake and that was too below my expectations. 😶 The fries though were good and the chicken popcorn.

Really really good burger, quick and efficient staff. Highly recommended.

The burger was average, nothing special. The price was normal for Amsterdam, where everything is expensive.

The burger was absolutely delicious! 🍔🔥 Super clean, perfectly put together, not messy at all, and the flavor was incredible. The staff were extremely kind and welcoming. I even witnessed a homeless person come in asking for food, and one of the staff members told him to come back and that he would give him something to eat. That small moment showed such genuine kindness and humanity. ❤️ You can really tell they put care into what they do — when they make something, they make it properly! Definitely a place I’d come back to.

Super burgers always at the top

Burgers are mid and fries not salty, the bun tastes store bought, not even toasted

Very good but very expensive for a fast food restaurant; everything is optional, even the sauces. And the drinks are also very expensive.

The burgers were absolutely delicious, the fries were perfectly crispy, and the sauces were very tasty. You can even watch them prepare the burgers. There's seating both inside and outside. I highly recommend it.

Mo is the best, not only is he funny but he gave us free fries!

Throw away everything Living close by. just got two burgers one supposed to be smashed double which is not and the potatoes are cold . Waste of money

So the burger was ok. Paid whole menu but they wanted to pay 2 euros for toilet after eating and drinking here. Very arrogant people. Terrible place.

The classic burger is excellent. The ham is average. The wings are average, not perfect. The sweet potato fries are excellent.

The burger was delicious, the fries and milkshake were all excellent! However, like almost everywhere in Amsterdam, it's dirty. They don't clean the tables often, and the atmosphere is unpleasant.

Delicious, especially the fries and burgers. Not very clean, but that's normal for Amsterdam.

The food isn't halal, be careful! Only one type of chicken is halal: crispy chicken.

Waited almost half an hour for 2 drinks without food. The milkshake is pre-made from the factory. They don't speak Dutch and the toilets were filthy.

Easy to order. You can also specify if you want your beef burger cooked “well”. The lamb burger is only offered in a single patty, but it is thick. Both lamb and beef burgers are good. The milkshakes are surprisingly good!!!

Decent place, the burgers were good but we didn't like the fries. Better to order takeout; the place was very noisy. You walk in and find a cow hanging from the ceiling—a bit distasteful…

Good value for money, although charging extra for fries (€7) was a huge mistake. They took ages to make, 20 minutes. The meat was good quality and the food was well prepared. I asked for cups for my drink and they told me they were out of them today.

The truffle burger was delicious. It's reasonably priced for Amsterdam...

My hamburger fell and they gave me a new one, I thank them all individually. The hamburger was also incredibly delicious. You should definitely go...

Solid burger, lacked a bit of flavour but overall a good meal.

half and hour to have a burguer ???

The best hamburger in Amsterdam 😋😋😋

Decent burger, but chaos in the kitchen. Ordered with extra toppings (bacon), didn't get it. Somewhat long wait, no control over the queue. Got a takeaway bag even though we were supposed to sit there. Going for McDonalds next time.

For the price you pay it is definitely not worth it. Over €45 euros for two people. Felt like the burger was ok at best (could easily make better at home on a bbq) and the fries were shockingly bad. Cheap tasting. Avoid, there's much better places around.

They have very good hamburgers. We can rate them in terms of price-performance ratio.

Nice hard working people but the food is not worth it for the price.

The Burgers are really Tasty, we ordered the Butcher Cheese and the silence of the lambs medium-rare, the meat had a great flavor and the fries and wings on the side left me satisfied.

Good fast food 🍔 Excellent American-style fast food with sweet buns and slow-cooked burgers. Quality ingredients, but the bun is quite small. Prices are a bit high for the standard, but I think it's one of the best in Amsterdam. The service is slow, so you need to speed things up. Recommended ✅

Really great burgers. Fast service.

A good burger that leaves you satisfied. The sweet potato fries are super delicious in truffle mayo! The burgers plump and juicy and fresh to order. Like FRESH- we watched them hand make them and server them. If in Amsterdam looking for a good sloppy messy burger that you didnt k ow you needed in your life- see The Butcher!! Giving a 4 for atmosphere but do understand we took out! However from.what we saw there was indoor and outdoor seating.

Great even though a bit pricey for a burger

Very delicious burgers The good thing about the burges is that you can choose the detailed materials in your sandwiches such as vegetables, sauces and even how well done the hamburger is. Really yummy and I would recommend this.

Great food, definitely hit the spot after a long day of travelling. The service was entirely appropriate and the staff polite; I just personally prefer table service. We sat outside and the atmosphere was slightly ruined by a strange incident where a random man started shouting obscenities at the restaurant and asking us whether we worked there. It seemed like he perhaps had some unfinished business with the restaurant or someone who worked there. He was quite aggressive so it was a bit unsettling as we were trying to eat.

The burgers are excellent! Very good quality product, super fast service, and the guy with the yellow braids provides great service!

Visited THE BUTCHER in Amsterdam and honestly, it didn’t disappoint. The burgers were juicy, full of flavor, and made with quality ingredients. The fries were crispy, the atmosphere was lively and trendy, and the service was fast and friendly. A great spot for a satisfying burger in Amsterdam. Definitely worth a visit!

I want to thank me Ediew, he is very helpful and help me to order and to get food. There is one guy with little white beard with origin from east ASIA, he is talking like he own the restaurant and refuse to remove the BBQ sauce despite I told his colleague to do. I am not sure if he is in the right place, the machine that they told me to order from doe not have option to remove BBQ sauce I put five stars for Mr Edwie only

Amazing burger tasted like heaven! Specially the truffle burger! If you are looking for a place to sit for a long time, the tables are not designed for that, but if you are going for the food you will enjoy a lot!

The burger is so delicious, don't miss it! 🔥

If you’re looking for a good burger in Amsterdam, this is definitely a tasty and interesting option to try. The burgers were delicious and worth experiencing. However, the indoor atmosphere could be improved. Since you can directly see the kitchen area, it sometimes looked a bit messy, and the staff were often speaking loudly among themselves, which affected the overall atmosphere. The seating area could also be more comfortable. The tables and chairs were not the most convenient, especially for sitting and enjoying a burger comfortably. Overall, despite these points, it’s still worth visiting if you want to try a good burger in Amsterdam.

The "best burger in town" is a big mac with smash patties.. thats the best way I can describe it. The fries were very nice if a little under seasoned, as were the spicy nuggets. If you're stuck and its your only option then go for it. But there are definitely better places in town.

The atmosphere is incredibly simple. The hamburgers are above average but small. The prices are high. Is it worth trying? Yes. Would I go again? No.

Alright burgers (nothing too special). Very mediocre fries. Extremely dirty space outside, no one bothered to clean the tables after customers left or the floors, which were full of leaves and rubbish.

Okey burger not as big as I thought, but delicious. I would expect at leasy ketchup etc is free but you have you pay 80p. Large sitting outside

One of the best burgers in Amsterdam

Very tasty smash burger .. five star

Warning: The meat is not halal.

30 mins to wait for two fries. And they were fried in same basket as meat and fish products. Time for a check by authorities. Don’t do it

The beef burger is good, but the seating area is crowded.

I tried The Butcher and it was one of the best burgers I've ever had 🔥 The meat tasted amazing and fresh, the bun was light, and the sauces were perfectly balanced, making you want another one after finishing your burger 😮‍💨🍔 Even their fries were crispy and delicious, the service was fast, and the atmosphere was fantastic. It's definitely worth a try.

It's delicious. If you're going to eat a hamburger, you don't need to look anywhere else. The bread was incredibly fresh and good.

Basically, it’s just regular fast food. You can only order using a screen and then wait until your number is called. We had to wait about twenty minutes, which I think is quite a long time for fast food. All in all it looked like they couldn’t keep up with the number of customers. We paid €17 per person, even though the three of us shared two drinks and one side, which I think is pretty expensive considering I would not say the food was very good. The burgers were maybe average and, in my opinion, looked better than they actually were. They also weren’t properly warm. Also, all customers—including us—had to remind the staff that they had ordered and paid for drinks so they would actually give them to us. Overall, the place wasn’t very clean, and the toilet flush was broken. All in all, I was disappointed.

Poor service overall. They forgot the fries, and even after saying they would bring them within 3 minutes, it never happened. There was also no ketchup included with the order, so I had to get it myself. The tables were dirty, and the burger had almost no taste.

Food is good, the place is not that big and seated are next to each other

Solid smash with a generous portion of fries. Their salsa is very good!

Only 4 service because kiosk was being a sausage

Their hamburgers are delicious. It's right behind Dam Square. My favorite is the beef cheeseburger.

Good burgers and fries .. cooked well

Fantastic burger and fries are at the same level. The guys work with awsome vibes and make an excellent experience

They’re not exactly friendly, and if you want to pay in cash, they won’t accept it. No, it’s already closed even though they’re supposed to be open until one o’clock. I just think the attitude, the hospitality and the service are all poor.

Burger was really amazing,must visit

Tastes good but kinda expensive

Nice Burger! I would suggest to use better quality ketchup - maybe Heinz? And better quality buns because they taste quite heavy and overpowering the burger (had to take one off)

One of the best burgers I ever ate. For sure will eat here again when in Amsterdam.

Good burgers! Super friendly service!

The burger is decent and while the fries are soft and not very crispy.

Delicious burgers made with top-quality meat, very juicy and grilled to a perfect medium. The chicken popcorn was also very tasty and crispy. Highly recommended for a quick bite.

The food is delicious, but there are extremely long queues. I recommend going before it gets too busy.

The smash burger was dried but yet delicious. The fries is perfect, the onion rings was ok and the pop corn spicy good as well. The sauces are very small. And the cola was hot.

So enjoyable ourv2nd trip into Amsterdam this year and visited twice on each trip....super Moy!!!!

Had forgot about my order took 45 minutes. And what I got was fully cold, not even toasted wrap, not what was advertised. Would not recommend. Meat also cooked well done not medium and they used a burger patty not the Angus steak which was what I ordered. Also didn’t remove the tomato which I requested

Great location and quality burger

The best burgers and sides and even better customer service. Can’t recommend highly enough. Go try!!!!!!

the meat quality is a main highlight of their burgers, along with their sauce. although it is on the pricier side for a burger, i would come back here occasionally for a well-crafted burger. i recommend getting their sweet potato fries as a side. service was a little slow but understandable since it was a busy hour. overall great experience!!

Great atmosphere but the burger was a little bit on the salty side

We ordered two single-meat smash burgers. The smash wasn't very good (no caramelization). The buns were soft but served cold, which unfortunately made the burgers seem cold. Very expensive (€45 for two), especially considering the fries were frozen. We think we saw a staff member re-tabling products in the refrigerators. Not great. Not enough sauce in the paid portions.
