There was a great beer selection. We tried a trippel and ipa and lager. The selection was large and it was hard to narrow it down. The bartender was helpful and helped us pick the best local brews. We shared some cheese and charcuterie and drank some more. We hoped that the rain would not end for a while so we could stay longer.

It has a bit of space inside, but it fills up very quickly towards the weeknights and weekends, so be sure to grab a spot earlier. The service is really great, and they help you find a beer that fits you. Definitely check it out in summer too. They have a cute little outdoor seating space that faces out to the canal on a not so busy street. So it has great views even from outside.

The suicide club wants to be a bit mysterious and exclusive by telling you that you have to be a…read moremember to be able to make a reservation. To become a member they need some personal information and they would like to know your life philosophy. Wow! That makes me feel special if I am granted a membership. But once inside the place is so INclusive. Which is great. No wannabees, nothing pretentious, just passionate and friendly people in the kitchen and at the bar. The guests are not snobs at all, which you might expect from the way they present themselves on the website. Why then not cut this crap and just present the place as the trendy inclusive place you have to visit in Rotterdam? Probably because it is pretty hard to find and before you have this word going around you need something extra. The club is situated on the 8th floor of the Groothandelsgebouw. You have to enter into the main hall, past the night receptionist and then into the inner garden where you'll find the entrance totally unexpected. After a welcome from the doorman and leaving your coat at the hostess you are summoned to take the goods elevated to the 8th floor where you enter the place through the kitchen. Just check out the photo's for an impression of great food, drinks and atmosphere.

Otherwise, their indoor spots are nestled in sensible and fun decor and served by congenial waiters. Adjacent is a little gallery of sorts and gift shop featuring new and affordable artists' works. Meander through the gallery and stop in for artistically styled bites (their empanadas and gazpacho were truly a delight) and inspired drinks (iced espresso with tonic!). It's our favorite spot to chill for a little inspiration in every sense of the word.

We started with the Mini Goat Cheese Balls. These were literally balls of creamy goat cheese covered in a layer of chopped peanuts and topped either with tangy sundried tomato or a slice of green olive. Next came the Tuna Tartar; Cool and fresh tuna was topped with a crisp seed cracker and paired with crisp spicy zucchini and seaweed salad. Our next dish was the Filo Spinach which had a crisp airy shell was filled with creamy whipped feta and wiled spinach. Finally, our favorite dish of the evening, the Stuffed Chicken Breast was tender and juicy, sat on a creamy mushroom sauce and fresh crisp asparagus. Overall, this was a solid choice for dinner.
