18 Best Bars in Amsterdam | Condé Nast Traveler

"This speakeasy plays hard to get until you actually spot it and ring the buzzer; once inside, the service is swell. The interior follows classic Prohibition Era-styling: dark woods, antique barware, tin ceiling. Despite its streetside coyness, Door 74 is actually quite well-known, which means you'll find casual (but not unstylish) tourists hanging out, looking for a break from the seedier side of Amsterdam. Like you, they've come for innovative cocktails bearing innovatively quirky names like "Simon the Fruit Vendor," a clever mix of Old Simon genever, Cocchi red vermouth, and raspberry eau de vie." - Meredith Bethune
