All you can eat ribs with baked potato or fries, and salad -- for €13.95 off hours, €15.95 the rest of the time. Almost everyone got the all-you-can-eat special. And they brought seconds, thirds and more if you wanted (meat only). Outside, it was pleasant enough. Inside, like an American dive bar - not an appealing atmosphere from my perspective. But the real issue is that these greasy ribs were a gut-bomb. Yes, you got exactly what you ordered -- but in the end, save this for when you're at home in the states and the ribs are better quality. These were ok, but pigging out on greasy ribs of middling quality really isn't that great an experience, is it? There are so many good local alternatives -- if you long for American food, I guess this might be a temporary answer, but I think you'd do well to go elsewhere. read more

Ok.. been in Amsterdam 5 days. To be honest, the customer service has been fair... BUT TODAY... was the worst ever!! Went to this "cafe" to watch the NBA Christmas games. The server was so clueless that even though Sangria was on the menu... she had no idea what we were talking about and kept having to ask the bartender( will discuss her later ). After numerous reminders, and her asking us to close out every time we placed an order... again... came here to watch at least 2 NBA games... we decided to order food. Nothing difficult... an order of chicken tenders and sweet potato fries. After an extended amount of time... the tenders arrived... and we were told the fries were right behind... Well, think you can guess... 25 minutes later.. NO FRIES! When we asked... we were told that there was an error with the order and the fries would be out soon. Wait for it......... 10 minutes later... no fries! But then, we see fries .. and the guy comes out, and gives it to the group that just paid their bill and were getting ready to leave( they took them of course) !! Is this joke? We ask him if they are ours, and the bartender informs him that they are. At this point, there has just been too many negatives, so I decided to approach the bartender(Fatima). Yeah, I know you may think she would be apologetic, trying to right the insane amount of wrongs..... NOT!! I told her that at this point, at the VERY least, she should not charge us for this fries.. given the numerous errors and that it took over 35 minutes for the fries to make it to our general area..lol.. and if we hadn't said anything... that group would have walked out with them. Fatima tries to explain this and that.. but in the end.. chalked it up to training new people. When I asked if that was my fault, she HAD THE NERVE to respond, "is it my fault"? Hell yeah it is!!!!!!! You are running the bar... I'm a customer... take responsibility. That's what a business that wants to succeed and make money does!! Lesson learned... stay away from this place... it smells like the sewer, service is clearly AWFUL, and there's no accountability for their screw ups!! Only saving grace was that Quincy was nice and was actually helpful.... what a concept!! Horrible place!! DUTCH TRANSLATION SO THE LOCALS KNOW: Oké... ik ben nu 5 dagen in Amsterdam. Om eerlijk te zijn was de klantenservice tot nu toe redelijk... MAAR VANDAAG... was echt het allerergste!! We gingen naar dit "café" om de NBA Christmas games te kijken. De serveerster was zó clueless dat -- ook al stond Sangria op de kaart -- ze geen idee had waar we het over hadden en telkens de bartender moest gaan vragen (daar kom ik later op terug ). Na talloze reminders, en het feit dat ze ons élke keer vroeg om af te rekenen zodra we iets wilden bestellen... nogmaals... we kwamen hier om minstens 2 NBA-wedstrijden te kijken... besloten we eten te bestellen. Niets moeilijks... gewoon een bestelling van chicken tenders en zoete-aardappelfriet. Na een belachelijk lange tijd kwamen de tenders eindelijk... en werd ons verteld dat de friet "er zo aankwam"... Nou, je kunt het al raden... 25 minuten later... GEEN FRIET! Toen we ernaar vroegen, kregen we te horen dat er een fout was met de bestelling en dat de friet er snel aan zou komen. Wacht maar...... 10 minuten later... nog steeds geen friet! Maar dan zien we friet... en die man komt naar buiten en geeft het aan het groepje dat net had betaald en klaarstond om weg te gaan (en ja, die namen het natuurlijk)!! Is dit een grap? We vragen hem of dat onze friet is, en de bartender zegt tegen hem dat dat inderdaad zo is. Op dit punt waren er gewoon te veel negatieve dingen gebeurd, dus besloot ik de bartender aan te spreken (Fatima). Ja, ik weet het -- je zou denken dat ze zich zou verontschuldigen en zou proberen al die bizarre fouten goed te maken..... MAAR NEE!! Ik zei haar dat ze op z'n MINST die friet niet moest rekenen, gezien de talloze fouten en het feit dat het meer dan 35 minuten duurde voordat de friet überhaupt in onze buurt kwam... lol... en als wij niks hadden gezegd, was dat groepje gewoon weggelopen met onze friet. Fatima probeerde dit en dat uit te leggen... maar uiteindelijk schoof ze het af op "we trainen nieuwe mensen". Toen ik vroeg of dat mijn schuld was, durfde ze te antwoorden: "Is het mijn schuld?" Hell yeah, dat is het!!!!!!! Jij runt de bar... ik ben klant... neem verantwoordelijkheid. Dat is wat een bedrijf dat succesvol wil zijn en geld wil verdienen doet!! Les geleerd... blijf weg van deze plek... het ruikt naar het riool, de service is duidelijk VERSCHRIKKELIJK, en er is totaal geen verantwoordelijkheid voor hun fouten!! Het enige positieve was dat Quincy vriendelijk was en daadwerkelijk behulpzaam.... wat een concept!! Vreselijke plek!! read more

This place is great because I ate for free. Waiter never came back to ask how I was doing, then shift change happened and my new waitress didn't bother either. Several people were watching the sports games outside and spending several hours there. I went to the bathroom and came back and my table had already been cleaned and seated with new people. Lol, ok!!! No further explanation needed. I'm out!!! read more

I walked by and everyone was eating ribs. It smelt good. We passed by the next day and everyone was eating ribs again. I decided to stop there for lunch. They have an all you can eat rib special, but it's not really a special because it's part of the everyday menu. It was pretty good, considering it's all you can eat. I just had one plate and I was full. It was the ribs, a start side and a salad. I would eat there again, but I'm on vacation so I have to try everything. read more

We decided to come here for the unlimited ribs for €11.95. This would be my first meal in Amsterdam and I was not disappointed the ribs were tender and falling off the bone soft. The barbecue sauce was tangy with the right amount of sweet. Although each refill after your initial plate will only be the ribs you can't beat the price or be disappointed at the taste. The staff was super friendly and the tv's were fixed on rally racing and skiing which was good for me because i love rally racing. read more

The staff at the Sportscafe were very professional and provided the best service as a first timer for my wife and I. The Manager- Ricardo and the weekend bartender Anna did everything possible to make our dinner evening enjoyable by accommodating us to watch our favorite team NFL game.

This bar! What can I say? All you can wat ribs for €9,95 after 10PM (before 10PM €11,95) Yes all you can eat and no they dont taste like "cheap all you can eat" at all. Tastefull, tender, juicy and ll you can eat. Probably the best ribs I had so far and I have had allot of ribs! Oh and there are also lots of screens streaming multiple sports, in this sports bar. I/We drove 30 minutes and coughedup the expensive "Amsterdam parking" multiple times just for these ribs. No regerts! (tip:fill up the car with family/friends and split the bill ) Nice and easy accessible location at the Leidseplein. Really affordable food(I can only vouch for the amazing ribs) and nice deals on drinks. Sourshots and Jeagerbombs recommended. At least half of the staff is friendly..and 1/10 can actually communicate in Dutch (not an issue for me but dor locals...hence the 4/5 stars) read more

After having dinner nearby, we decided to have dessert here and we were confused because there was a big neon sign that says "Pancake Corner" and it didn't look like a pancake house. One of the restaurant hawks told us it's Pancake Corner/ Satellite Sports. Ok, strange. What I like about this place is they have lots of flat screens with different sports on. MMA, futbol, tennis, etc. Nope, no basketball tonight since it would've been early morning in the States. We thought about getting Dutch pancakes but we were told we are not allowed to share. Well, that was a huge bummer! We thought about leaving but the server told us about proffertjes which are mini pancakes. So, we got those with different toppings. There was confusion in the kitchen so our food took forever. The cook made pancakes instead of proffertjes. The food was marginal at best. The service was not very good. read more

Well let me start by saying if you are going to watch any type of sport when you are traveling you can probably find it here. I however, am not an avid sports lover so I am basing this on the food. Being a bar and a place where bar snacks should shine, I ordered a few of the staples nachos and cheese fries. For those who are reading this... don't. The nachos definitely had some Dutch flare. As an American I was not prepared for green olives on my dish. Now this was neither gross or good... just weird to me. The part that really threw me on these was that they were made with nacho Doritos as a base. Like what! Too weird and felt very fake. Not a fan. The cheese fries would have been better with seasoning. The cheese was also over cooked on the plate which made it impossible to pry any fry from the dish to eat. I wouldn't waste the calories on pocket change on this either. - Forever Foodie- Ela read more

I don't know what it is about this place that I always come back. Might be nostalgia from my first visit to Amsterdam. This place has solid baby back ribs for a great price. Sports are always going and its a large place to just sit have a drink and enjoy your high. It's nothing too special but that's fine with me. read more

I've been coming to this sports bar for around 15 years as it's right on the main Leidseplein square and is always a place you can be guaranteed will have the big sports matches on. It has no frills but it does have fairly low priced drinks and food (a pint of Heini last night was 5 euros which is pretty cheap in tourist areas in Amsterdam) I really enjoyed watching the England match while my Austrian buddy (Shout out to Andreas R) watched his team and Olli E watched the tennis. In fact our conversation was a little screwed up as we were all sat at the bar together and from here all were watching different games. Not a bad place but if you're not into sports it's probably best to avoid. They have a fairly large outside area with screens still showing the matches. read more

Thumbs up! After a few visits over the past months, it is time for an updated review. Here again with work colleagues to catch an overseas NFL Football game on, enjoy some brews and the good ribs. We were seated right away in a packed house and treated with friendly prompt service & a good view of our game. There are plenty of good eats on the menu, but hard to pass up the ribs in the evening. I, as much as anyone, can be skeptical of anything that is marketed as "all u can eat". That's usually code for sacrificing quality for quantity. Not here. The rib meat is grilled just right, tender, flavorful, moist and falls off the bone easily. Also nice is that it is not swimming in sauce. There's just enough to enhance the flavor, but not so much that all you taste is the sauce. Two choices on the sauce by the way: BBQ or Garlic. Both are good, but I tend to prefer the garlic. You can get both for €0.50 or if you're with another you could both try one each and share. Of course, you don't have to eat a lot to be happy. One rack will do me just fine. If you want more...then it's there, but don't be put off by the 'all u can eat' banner. Good choice of games on the TV and usually all are in good view. You may have to (or try) to sit where you can view the game of choice. read more

I wish I could give this zero stars Terrible service Lousy food Really. Go anywhere else. Anywhere. We went because they were showing American football and my die hard Cowboys fan husband needed to see the game. Even for that reason, it wasn't worth it. DO NOT GO HERE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. They refuse to serve water "for hygeinic reasons" Just so bad on all fronts. The special ribs were flabby and flavorless. Definitely not barbeque. So bad RUN AWAY read more

1 star is even too good for them. Terrible and unethical. The staff blatantly lied to us that we needed to pay for the "BTW" cost line which is something like a tax in the Netherlands, but this was not true. We realised that this BTW cost is already factored into the total cost, based on our later experiences at other restaurants in Amsterdam where we were NEVER asked to pay extra for that BTW cost line. Also, they told us to pay them a tip (10-15%), which also did not happen in other restaurants in Amsterdam! Other restaurants DID NOT charge for the BTW line and DID NOT insist on tips. DO NOT recommend anyone in patronising this place because of their unethical behaviour in cheating tourists out of chump change. Daylight robbery with no remorse at all. read more

Coming from the United States and entering Europe during the FIFA tournament you come to ask, "Where should I watch the game?" One thing you might add is, "I wonder if there is a sports bar around here?" and my friend YES! Situated in the center of the best part of Amsterdam center is Leidseplein and this sports bar is calling you out! Ribs, beer, pasta, beer, wings, beer, sports, and even more beer! This place rocks! The food is super good and very fair prices! Portion sizes are very generous so you can literally stay throughout the whole game, just keep the Amstel going though! Staff is very friendly and you can choose to sit outside or inside, whatever you pick will still be pleasant! read more

This place doesn't look worthy because it looks like the run of the mill sports bar. But that's actually the great thing about it, it is! It is one of the very few places around Leidseplein open before 10am. The inside has a bar atmosphere with low lighting and polished wood decor. On the wall are all the televisions, hence the Satellite part of it's name, the televisions play sports, hence Sportscafe of the name. I don't know why anyone would go in and expect anything else. One of the cheap frills like many of the restaurants around the touristy part of Amsterdam is the All You Can Eat Spare-Ribs with sides, in this case fries and salad. I find the whole All You Can Eat Spare-Ribs so amusing because I had already fallen for this chewy, chunky, lackluster type of meat before but I was hungry and it was available in the morning. So I get an order of that, the Spare-Ribs, pancakes and a beer. The waiter warned me that it will be alot of food but I didn't care, hunger sometimes over takes logic in ordering food. I already mentioned the ribs. The beer was a bottle of Heineken served with a glass cup. The pancake was not by any means the normal stacked fluffy bread like consistency layers of American style pancake, 6-7" in diameter, think honey dew cut in half. No, pancakes in Amsterdam are a single layer pancake, a little more on the crepe side, less fluffy but a wide 1 feet diameter, think center of a big water melon cut in half. My pancake had bananas incorporated into it and served with a tiny cube of butter, powdered sugar and maple syrup. It was awesome and filling, so much so that it was hard to put down the entire rack of ribs, All You Can Eat, I think not, one did it on this occasion, normally maybe seconds. There's outside seating also. read more

After seeing the all you can eat ribs sign for 9.99, I looked it up on Yelp and the ribs review prompted me to head over there pronto! Well, it is true that they are baby back ribs which is a super deal. And your first serving is a double rack-plenty. You also get a large portion of potatoes, but a sloppy, wimpy salad :( Ribs were very good, not the best. I would definitely head there again for ribs. You can get a large portion of ribs most places for 9.99, but I like the all you can eat challenge. A vegetarian friend ordered the margherita pizza and it tasted as bad as it looked. We stayed outside in the patio which is good for people watching, but kinda dingy and feels unclean. Makes you not want to go inside. But good location in the Leiseplein square. You can get a delish fresh squeezed orange juice (small or large). read more

Went here this past Sunday to eat dinner and watch the NFL games, something that they advertise on their website. Was told I needed to wait for my whole party before being seated in the restaurant that was just over 50% full. When my 3 friends arrived, we asked to be seated and the waitress asked if everyone was eating or not. Only myself and one other person planned to, and she told us we couldn't be seated unless everyone was eating. "What if everyone is drinking and only two of us are eating?" No, she said sternly. The other two people I was with said they would order some appetizers then, so I suggested this to the waitress. "No, I won't seat you unless everyone orders a full meal." I looked at her, asked if she was serious, and she again sternly replied Yes, she was serious. The whole place was JUST OVER HALF FULL, with plenty of open tables. I asked if I was in an episode of the Twilight zone, and she didn't take very kindly to that. I thought about staying a few extra minutes to explain to her the math of running a bar/restaurant, and how margins on alcohol are significantly larger than that of food, but it wasn't worth my time. There's also a very creepy short guy that stands out front of the restaurant that acts as "security." He just walks around the place scowling at people. Seriously. We decided to leave and went to Coco's instead, where we were treated incredibly well by nice waitresses in a semi full bar/restaurant, and were able to watch Chicago Bears play. Seriously this place is awful. I had been a couple times before and ate horrible food because I could drink cheap beer and watch NFL games on a Sunday night. I'm never coming back here again. read more

Don't know why would anyone complain about this place. It is a regular sports bar with lots of alcohol and amazing ribs! Waiting service is nice and polite, gets you another portion of ribs in no time. Whenever I am next time in Amsterdam will definitely visit again. read more

Would have given this place a solid 5 stars had it not been for the amazingly rude, petite brunette waitress who is there on Thursdays. Came to Amsterdam for the first time on Wednesday and my boyfriend and I fell in love with this place. Super cheap, good food, cheap mini shots, but their cocktails were pretty bad (a cosmopolitan is not supposed to be a cranberry vodka). Free bathrooms too. The two blonde waitresses who served us on Wednesday were super nice, especially the one with the wavy hair (without the glasses). Loved her! We came back 4 times throughout the day for more drinks and food. Thursday was a different story. We showed up after we checked out of our hotel and didn't see the familiar staff who had served us all day before, but we headed to the front door and saw a brown-haired waitress headed toward us, carrying a small pizza. I smiled at her, and not only did she not smile back, but had a rather sour expression on her face. Then, as we reached the door at the exact same moment (she was heading out while we were heading in), she made an exasperated "TSK" noise, as if we were in her way. I was truly shocked. We literally turned on our heels and left. We came back later when we saw a waiter serving the outside patio area so we wouldn't have to deal with her (he was nice). Honestly, FIRE this horrible, reprehensible girl. She gives your business a bad name. read more

Six words - 2 euros for a lemon wedge. We usually patron this establishment every time we visit Amsterdam for the ribs. This review reflects three, at the first we ordered pancakes which were meh at best, the second we ordered a chicken wrap which was really dry. So i asked for a bit of lemon to flavor the dish. I got a tiny wedge of lemon which l discovered only upon looking at the bill that they charge 2 euros for. No where was it indicated that its the price neither the waitress mentioned anything about it. The third time happened only because my husband wanted the ribs, which were not as good as we remembered them. Shame. Shame. Shame. Not going back there. read more

This place is the worst. They were terribly rude about asking us to keep our chairs off of the street. Which I suppose they need to be on top of but still. She was super unclear about what she wanted, when she came back and saw my chair had crossed some line, she was like "did you not understand?!" What a bitch! Drinks were required and cost 4-6 dollars. The food was mediocre at best. Some of the worst I've had in Amsterdam. When I asked if our group could split up the tab, the waitress just walked away shaking her head. Fuck that place. read more

Finally someone came and took my order. Food again was good. Again at the end of my meal I made it obvious that I was ready to pay but no one brought me my bill. I finally had to ask for it. Don't understand the difference in between the services. I won't be returning to the cafe again. read more
