NJoy in Amsterdam
Description
Privilege
Cocktails are very pricy for what you get, the staff can be rude sometimes
Lily and the rest of the staff here were so kind, funny and inviting. Not to mention, I had the BEST cocktail i’ve had in a long time. Looking forward to my next visit! 💜
MoreReally nice place for cocktails and mocktails! 😊Such friendly staff and really comfy sitting places! Also got some free water due to the heat!
MoreMy favorite cocktail bar since 2018, I came first time a few weeks ago after 3 years and when I looked at the bar and didnt saw the barman who I use to know, I was a bit scared of what the quality could be now, after all the people behind the bar is who makes the bar itself! And surprisingly a guy called Anton surprised us in an amazing way! Thank you for keeping the high standard of Njoy! See you soon!
MoreLoved the place! The ambience, the cocktails, the staff!!Must visit.
This is the definition of a top-tier cocktail bar! Not only by the looks of it, but als by the cocktails you get why this is the longest existing cocktail bar in Amsterdam. 18 years of experience can be tastable in every sip. Come here if you want to see what the Amsterdam cocktail/spirits-scenery really has to offer.Don’t expect just a cocktail, because you’ll be given a whole experience. Don’t miss out on this gem, Njoy!
MoreMy friend and I have been here 3 times so far and it’s been amazing! The host Joe ? The one with the beautiful hair and refreshing energy made the experience great! He recommend the cocktail GIGI and it’s been my fav! I also enjoy the twister fries! Overall recommend this cocktail bar in Amsterdam. ☺️❤️
MoreJoey gives the best service, very client-oriented, and has outstanding knowledge of the cocktails served. Even more, he is always presenting the cocktails in style and with great vibes!
MoreSuperb cocktail bar. A tad expensive but every bit luxurious, great music and ambience.
MoreWe had such a great time yesterday, top service.Special shout out to Joey😍😍😍 best bartender Evert, such a fantastic personality and to the pregnant lady at the bar such a fine spirit you have. Xoxo
MoreNice BarVery unique and good tasting CocktailsThe Staff is friendly and in an extremely good mood.
MoreA bar in the middle of Amsterdam turning away people in leggings and sneakers! Wonder if it had to do with me being brown and if they would’ve turned me away this rudely, if I was white instead
MoreTried to pop in for a drink, the waiter let the couple in before us but then was very rude. We’ll gladly take our custom elsewhere in future.
MoreA friend and I happened to come across NJoy on a Wednesday night while visiting the city, and we had a wonderful experience! The bartenders were friendly and accommodating and made us feel very welcome. Our drinks were fantastic- my friend got the champagne Geisha, and the bartender was kind enough to make me an off-menu drink (a last wordthat was one of the best drinks I have ever had. VERY highly recommend this place!
MoreBest cocktails in Amsterdam🍸🍹 super nice atmosphere and the staff very professional and super friendly, I love this place,we will keep coming back
MoreBeautiful bar! Good music! Loved the drinks and the host was amazing! He really made our night! Definitely a must go when in Amsterdam! 5 stars!!
MoreVery cool atmosphere, delicious drinks, and friendly service. Highly recommend!
Came here with my boyfriend to njoy our date night and we truly did! The staff was very friendly and fun to talk to, the atmosphere of the place was very cozy. Nice music, lightning and the cocktails were the best I ever had in Amsterdam.. I recommend for everyone to visit this Amsterdams hidden gem!
MoreSmall but cosy cocktail bar with a decent assortment of cocktails. Average cos is €15 to €18.
MoreAmazing drink especially their famous envy me cocktail!
Went to meet up with friends here and had a very nice time. Great atmosphere, nice drinks and lovely people there too. Would come again
MoreAmazing cocktailbar in the center of Amsterdam. Great ambiance, great staff and a-ma-zing cocktails! After seeing their amazing cocktails on their Instagram account we decided we had to go there and it was a great night out. Would definetily recommend!
MoreGreat place for cocktails. They always surprise me with good ones. Must try champagne cocktails specially geisha.
MoreArranged a small surprise birthday at NJoy for my friend and it was amazing!! Very kind staff and delicious cocktails. We really enjoyed our time and will be back very soon. Would def recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
MoreOur experience at Njoy was far from being enjoyable. I visited your “cocktail bar” with my friends while visiting Amsterdam in February. First, the waitress made a rude comment on my friend’s outfit, but that was only the start of it. The waitress us made us feel uncomfortable, by her notorious comments about us being”tourists”. The second waiter was clearly intoxicated, he spilled the water all over our table and was acting really weird. Overall, we felt unwelcomed, whole place was rather scetcht, we left as soon as we could.
MoreDidn’t really NJoy it ;)))The waiters spilled their things multiple times during our (fortunatelyshort visit there, the waitress suggested my friend should leave as she deemed his outfit was not classy enough. What I would say was not classy enough was her attitude towards us and glassware of the "establishment". The alleged overbooking of the place seemed fabricated by the waitress. We ran away to Chupitos across the street as soon as we finished our overpriced "Chardonnay" glasses.
MoreNice people! Dont know much about cocktails though. Expansive, not a lot of fruit (nor liquid for that matter). Those two bad boys cost 35 EUR. Two stars for the nice ladies and for the laugh! 😘
MoreIt was my mates birthday and we wanted to celebrate it at NJOY. So as any rational person would do, we made an reservation. Which took forever to manage because a certain someone at NJOY didn’t take their job seriously enough to actually plan my friends birthday. FINALLY we were able to make a reservation for the ten of us. For his 22nd birthday by the way. Even though they were supposed to let us know that their policy only allows people of 23 and above.So we show up at NJOY and guess what? Our reservation was totally non existent. The host (who is supposed to be kind and welcoming by the waywas being totally oblivious about our request. He even had the audacity to send us away without an apology or anything. Maybe this place is cool and all but our experience there has not been one of the nicer ones that I read about in other reviews.Also, my pants were suddenly taken off.
MoreI loved the cocktails, however, we were seated by often walkable area by the waiter and got squeezed every few minutes. Generally, the “couple” table was ridiculously small. I would work on optimizing this rather than trying to get as many as possible tables “taken”.
MoreReally really nice place!!!! Authentic drinks, not usual grenadine/blue curacao mix fluids as everywere! Expensive but that worth it for 100%! Have tried 3 cocktails and each one was perfect.
MoreA great experience and great vibe. It was a bit less a few years ago but with the return of a key person its getting back to where it should be.Must visit due to the best mixologist in the Netherlands
MoreThe biggest surprise I’ve had in a while. The staff were great, knowledgeable and friendly. The drinks however were the stars of the show - a must visit even if it’s in the tourist part. Really really good
MoreNJOY is THE Place in Amsterdam. Located in the heart of Leidseplein, it is simply the best Cocktailbar on the planet. I am a 40 year veteran of the industry. I have owned my own bar / restaurant, my own hospitality / restaurant consulting firm and, managed countless hospitality establishments. I travel the world every year…been in more bars, in more countries than I can count. NJOY is the pinnacle of class, elegance and, originality.Dennis and Lilliyan are fabulous hosts and provide each and every discerning client with an intimate, world-class, platinum level experience.NJOY is the perfect blend of lounge, club and, cocktailbar.Dress to impress for a romantic date, an intimate couples night, a blazing party evening out with your besties, or just belly up to the bar with both the local Dam “in-crowd” and international tourists alike. Be prepared to be mesmerized by their incredible libation creations and intoxicating flair for mixology, originality and, performance art.Don’t skip the meticulously prepared culinary bar plates.NJOY is a MUST VISIT on anyone’s Amsterdam itinerary.
MoreReally expensive compared to other cocktail bars in the city, price/quality is fair.Keep in mind that this bar has a closed door, the host/hostess will decide if you are allowed to enter depending on the way your dress, talk and so on.
MoreThe cocktails are amazing, the atmosphere is great and the staff is extraordinarily friendly. They do everything they can so you feel good and check up on you if everythings still great. Always smiling and never annoyed. Really recommend this place. Next time Im in Amsterdam I will come here again.Hands down one of the best places in Amsterdam to go for a drink.
MoreOne of the best absinthe cocktails Ive ever had. Super relaxed atmosphere and very knowledgeable barkeeper. Would recommend it to anyone who wants to try a cocktail that is very well prepared. But make sure youre not in a hurry, as certain cocktails need some time to be prepared and are most certainly worth the wait.
MoreNice and cute cocktail bar in Amsterdam, it is a little place with cozy vibes and nice cocktails ,
MoreExcellent at this very special cocktail bar... staff amazing helped us with our choice of cocktails... 2nd time we have been and looking forward to going again on christmas day
MoreHidden gem in the vicinity of the Leidseplein. If you think of a classy cocktailbar, this is it! The cocktialmenu is very extensive, even hard to choose from. But the skilled and nice staff can help you make a decision. Try their snacks and bites with your cocktail, its really great. Do take care that it can be busy, so be on time.
MoreReally good cocktails here. Good prices. 13-20€ for a well made cocktail. Staff very friendly and knowledgeable.
MoreFriendly, enthusiastic and welcoming staff who knows their drinks. The bartenders are very attentive and knowledgeable in the drinks.Truly enjoyable experience!
MoreAmazing cocktails come at a price. Be well dressed when you go here because they value their image as a high quality bar. Very skilled and professional service and high quality produce, very pricey though.
MoreThe place has an anonymous entrance, so its easy to walk past. The drinks are amazing, the staff is friendly and the atmosphere is relaxed. I would definitely visit this place at my stay in Amsterdam
MoreThey have wide choices of cocktails. Some were good and some were not. A bit of hit and miss. Good and intimate vibes.
MoreCozy cocktail bar with friendly and helpful staff! I would definitely visit again!
MoreVery sophisticated and great quality cocktails. Speak easy style in which you ring a doorbell to get in
MoreVery nice bar and very nicely made cocktail they have. Not too packed at around midnight. The bartender and server were friendly. They have some interesting and beautiful cocktails so it would be good to look through the menu to find something new to try. It costs around 13€ to 15€ per cocktail.
MoreA hidden treasure around the corner of busy leidsplein. Very intimate ambience accompanied by the good tunes. you feel relaxed once you enter. Tried the signature cocktail, very good.
MoreVery nice cocktails, and if its quite you get lot of attention. when busy a little less and the prices are a bit on the high side.
MoreThe cocktails were great! The atmoshere was very nice and the staff very formally kind. The music wasn t that good but ok. Its a nice place for 2 to max 5 people. The cocktails are very expensive but not more than expexted (same prices in every cocktail bar of the same level in amsterdam)
