We entered cautiously, the inside was dim and had a good choice of craft beers and a full liquor bar. It was a ghost town in here but we loved the decor. The sole bartender poured us a special Heineken Morkum 750 representing the Amsterdam anniversary. It was well mid hazy beer. The upstairs third floor bathroom had a metal trough style urinal and graffiti on the back of the door - loved it. The second floor had a karaoke room that was structured as a cave with comfy leather seats and a microphone - karaoke every Thursday night. This place definitely has the tools to be a super fun college oriented bar.

They also have an outdoor area as well, but it honestly didn't look as nice and clean. 2/5 SELECTION: They have a lot of standard options for a standard restaurant, but I like that they have a lot of clearly-marked vegan options as well. 3/5 WHAT I GOT: I got their Buddha Bowl without walnuts or edamame, and with the dressing on the side. I liked all the other ingredients and the concept of that bowl overall, and it looked nice too. But, it was also small (don't let the picture deceive you lol), dull (the ingredients didn't seem fresh and vibrant, and it seemed like it had been sitting out), and oily. It was a little disappointing. 2/5 SERVICE: The employees seemed nice-ish, but I have to put a low score because our food took forever to come out, and they weren't even busy. 2/5

This place is located in the first floor of the Sir Adam hotel which itself has a lot of amenities.

We ordered bitterballen to try, but it was creamy inside and not to our taste. I think it was undercooked and not supposed to be served like that. Not a fan in any case. The ambiance is really nice.
