Our Take
Amsterdam's Best Waterfront Summer Bar
Hannekes Boom is a wood and concrete bar on a wooden deck over the Amsterdam harbour, near Centraal Station. The deck is large enough for hundreds of people and in summer the after-work and weekend crowds make it one of the best urban drinking spaces in the city.
The drinks are simple — Dutch and Belgian beers on tap, basic cocktails, reliable wine. The kitchen is decent. The bar is the deck and the deck is the bar — not a destination for craft cocktails but for a 5pm to 9pm summer beer.
The crowd is mid-thirties Amsterdam locals and travellers staying centrally. Best from May to September. Pair with Twenty Third Bar at the Okura for a complete summer Amsterdam evening.
What to Order
Heineken
On tap. The Amsterdam pub default. Reliable for the deck.
Belgian Wheat
Hoegaarden or similar. Refreshing for warm afternoons.
Wine by the Glass
Reliable European selection.
Bitterballen
The Amsterdam beer snack. Pair with anything on tap.
