Party Earth Review: After spending many years as a typical Dutch brown bar on the Rozengracht, Bar Struik was transformed by its owner Remco, with the help of his uber-cool friends, from a staid old tavern into a sleek hangout for a sociable young crowd. The simple, urban vibe is punctuated by the colorful graffiti that spells out the bar’s name on the red brick wall, while the street art exhibit, which includes everything from skateboard deck creations to stenciling on canvas, changes every three months and features designs by some of the best alternative artists in Amsterdam. The sofas on the top level provide a funky atmosphere where the chatty clientele of designers, skaters, artists, and other creative types can spend comfy, cool evenings with friends listening to the soul, jazz, and afro beats offered by the DJs.

Bar Struik Review

Tip from Jonah:

“This bar is the best place to meet people in Amsterdam. The creative regulars seem to share a keen sense of the city’s underground culture, so don’t hesitate to ask if there’s anything interesting going on that you should know about!”
