Didn’t eat but fun bar, pop music and lovely waterside setting with all seats with good views. Looks a bit shabby chic so is not sophisticated but much enjoyed.

Love to come here at any time and just have some beers, snacks and hang out with friends and meet new people. Been going to Waterkant for some time now since I moved to Ams, and this place never disappoints, always so chill and relaxing with DJ nights on the weekends!

Great location overall by the water! Especially in the summer, one of my favourite in Amsterdam. Really nice food and drinks.
