Café the Star — Restaurant in Amsterdam

This place is the worse place ever. The staff there is very bad. I really need to use the bathroom and I didn’t mind paying for it but just because I didn’t ask them first (they were busy taking care of other costumers and unfortunately i couldn’t wait anymore I really needed to go to the restroom so i just went) but they came to the restroom and dragged me out while i was using it. They asked me to pay which i said this is not a problem i just needed to use it so why you don’t let me use it and ask me to pay after I’m finished. The problem was that they told me they deal with this every day which i do understand but dragging you out of the toilet is not acceptable. The worst thing happened when i confronted them about their way of behavior and the fact that is not ok to drag ppl from the toilet about it they really got aggressive till a point that they started calling me the offensive gay words ( the F one and more) never thought this will happen in Amsterdam and i come from Nyc and the next place that makes me feel as safe as gay person will be Amsterdam but being called F word because i used the toilet with asking first is very very disrespectful and crossing the line of being a good people. I really really felt attacked and judged for my sexual choices. It really effected the rest of the trip for me and I really recommend not going to this place if you are a good person and know how yo...

Visited with my sister for a short coffee before heading off again. We were approached by a middle-aged man with gelled wavy hair, who initially seemed standoffish as we were trying to get into the seats next to the people he was getting an order from. He then turned around, and as if we were an imposition, he asked us what we wanted. My sister asked if she could have a short coffee with an Italian name, to which he replied, "You're in the Netherlands; speak Dutch," which was fun! He also highlights the menu at this point. Though they don't serve the initial coffee requested, funnily enough, they do have other coffees on the menu with Italian names awks. Don't know if this is a general rule for any foreign named things or just an issue he had specifically against coffees with foreign names. Perhaps he should find a job in a foreign language school so he can teach us all how to pronounce things before we visit. Wish I could've given it 0 stars and hope that this encourages more people to show up asking for a cappuccino, cortado, or, God forbid,...

We were 4 tourists, came to visit Amsterdam for a day, It was rainy and we went to this cafe to warm up. There was hot drinks on the menu, when we ordered, the guy, apparently the manager, told us they don’t serve tea and coffee in a really bad and rude manner, so we ordered soft drinks. We stayed for half an hour, waiting for rain to stop. When we wanted to pay, he ignored us couple of times and was smoking and laughing next to us. At the end I really felt bad and was thinking the guy was really RUDE and UNWELCOMING. We were just tourists and didn’t expect that. I really feel sorry for your hospitality old man. I work in a five star hotel in london, we would never welcome our guests like that….sorry that I have a bad memory at your cafe on my one day visit...
