Belly of the Beast

The cocktails were nice, creative, well balanced. Most of the staff were friendly and welcoming, and overall the vibe was relaxed and enjoyable. Service did take a bit of time, but nothing that took away from the experience. Overall, a good spot for anyone who appreciates good cocktails.

We chose to sit here since we didn’t want to wait in line for the well-known Flying Dutchman bar upstairs. This place feels more spacious, and they also offer a wide variety of cocktails. The presentations are visually very impressive. The service is attentive, but unfortunately you do end up waiting a bit too long for a single cocktail.

Incredible experience, the cocktails were unique and delicious. But the service was the absolute stand-out. Sanne and Kevin were two of the best bartenders I've ever met! Would definitely recommend

Enjoyed some very tasty (and strong!) underwater-themed cocktails in this bar. The ambience, dim lighting, booth seating, friendly staff and inventive menu were great.

This was a fantastic bar. My wife and I visit bars all over the world trying different cocktails and the bartenders here really knew their stuff. To me, a great cocktail bar is one where the bartenders are able to be creative with drinks, and we saw that first-hand here as Jinny, Mariano, and Fillipo were creating new drinks for their next menu. We even got the honor of trying one of the drinks and giving our feedback. I recommend this cocktail bar to any looking for a great drink in a fun atmosphere.

Kevin was outstanding! He was so knowledgeable and showed us a great time! Kevin made our first day in Amsterdam memorable and will be back! Oh! The old school hip hop was an added bonus! So fun!

The reception was very warm and welcoming. The €1 tacos special was super nice. Their drinks are the reason I scored the food as a 3 star. Watered down Palomas for my wife and I. Disappointed. We really love our cocktails and know this wasn’t it. Other than this, the place is has a nice layout and the server that served us was great.

Belly of the Beast in Amsterdam was easily one of the best cocktail experiences I’ve had. Every drink we ordered was absolutely perfect. Well balanced, flavorful, and clearly made with real attention to detail. You can tell the bartenders really know their stuff too: super knowledgeable, happy to recommend something based on what you like, and they nailed it every time.
