Amsterdam West
Just off the tourist track
We're the kind of place people come back to — a local's bar with a proper kitchen behind it, canal out front, Foodhallen round the corner.
What to order
Start with the half-chicken — everyone does. Mussels come out in two rounds so they stay right.
Questions we get a lot
How long is the wait for food?
On a quiet night it's quick. When we're busy, especially weekends, it can take up to an hour — we'd rather cook it right than rush it out.
What should I order?
The half-chicken with coleslaw, rotisserie potatoes and cheese fries is the one people tell their friends about.
Can I book a table for two or four?
Yes, book ahead through the site. On busy nights we can't always seat small groups without a reservation.
Do you take reservations for small groups if it's busy?
Not always — when we're full, walk-ins of one or two can have a longer wait. Booking ahead is the safer bet.
Is Fier touristy?
Not really — it's mostly locals and neighbourhood regulars, just off the main tourist streets.
Is service always good?
Mostly, yes — friendly and easy on a normal night. On a packed weekend, especially on the terrace, it can slow down. We're working on it.
Do I need a reservation?
Walk-ins are welcome, but we recommend booking ahead for larger groups or busy times.
Do you have vegetarian or vegan options?
Yes — we have vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free dishes. Let us know about any allergies.
