Worst ever in Amsterdam. Rude waitress and I was spilled with beer and other remains from the serving tray as the waitress walked away way to hectic and blunt. Didn’t even react when I screamed because of this.
Went there yesterday evening for a drink after dinner. Waitress was really rude bc we are tourists or so she made us feel. Place was not crowded but our friend was not allowed to tilt here chair lightly towards Rembrandtplein bc the waitress needs to have „free ways“. Would be understandable if the free way would not have been blocked directly behind our table and the place would have been full, not empty. Also were asked to order immediately after we sat down, but we wanted to have a look at the menu first. One of us ordered quickly the others wanted to have a few minutes to check the options. Waitress disappeared after bringing the first drink and when leaving our table spilled remains from her serving tray on me. Didn’t even react to this. Never again. If you hate tourists maybe don’t work in a place in the main tourist area...

When we asked why they had to play music at a decibel level that is definitely medically unsound, when most customer looked puzzled, shouting across the tables, the explanation is "we are a bar". When encountering such advanced logic, one can only back down. The name indicates they are actually a café, but what's in a name? The food was all right, we tried several OK toasts (pity we had to eat in a hurry to get out of there...). The service somewhere between average and poor. Rembrandtpleijn has a lot of choices, not sure we found the right one, but the locations is...
Read moreA week ago me and my husband witnessed an unbelievable rudeness of one of the waiters, towards a group of polite and well behaved French tourists. They asked for recommendations from the menu, and a little assistance. he almost shouted at them, "can't you read the menu ?", he also didn't like them to move any chair or table ( it was a group of 3 couples), he acted very roughly and rudely. After such rudeness, the group decided to leave, wishing him a good working day. After they left, he spoke in Dutch to one of the customers, complaining about THEIR BEHAVIOR as tourists. Very rude young man. Note : it wasn't busy, it was a quiet winter evening... When we watched him serving the Dutch, he was another person. Why working in a touristic area, if you don't like...
