Our Take
Amsterdam's Gin and Tonic Specialist
Tales of Tonic is a small cocktail bar in Amsterdam Centrum with a clear specialisation: gin and tonic. The back bar holds around 80 gins from around the world with strong Dutch and Spanish coverage. The bar's signature is the curated G&T — gin, tonic, garnish chosen specifically.
The cocktail menu beyond G&T is short. The bartenders explain each gin's distillation and pair with the right tonic. Spanish-style G&Ts in copa glasses are the format.
The crowd is mid-thirties Amsterdam locals and visiting cocktail enthusiasts. Pair with Door 74 a few minutes away for a Centrum gin-and-cocktails evening.
What to Order
Curated G&T
Choose a gin from the back bar. Bartender pairs with the right tonic and garnish. Spanish copa glass.
Gin Flight
Three small G&Ts comparing different gin styles. Educational.
Negroni
Built with the bar's house gin selection. Stirred classically.
Dutch Gin G&T
From the deep Dutch jenever-gin section. Distinctive and local.
