you definitely want to hang out at bartack amsterdam!

When you are at the Postjesweg in Amsterdam West When you cross Hoofdweg, the charming bars and cafés pretty much stop there. Okay, a few doors past the intersection you'll find IJsmanschap on your right, but it's actually quite strange that – so close to Rembrandtpark – there's no pleasant refuge in the form of a pub or café. You'd have to wander off to Mercatorplein or head towards Overtoom. The men behind Bar Spek and Forno noticed this "emptiness" too, so they took matters into their own hands: Bartack Amsterdam is open!

So you'll find Bartack just past IJsmanschap. It's in the last building before the park, which once served as a fraternity house, then briefly as a mosque, and then as a squat. Now that it's been renovated, the owners are aiming to create a welcoming spot where neighbors can gather all day long. They're doing this by serving breakfast from 8:00 a.m., with a variety of breakfast bowls and delicious egg dishes. What's more, breakfast is available all day! And, as befits a good neighborhood pub, you can also stop by for lunch, dinner, and a refreshing drink.

The evening menu offers a choice of vegetable dishes like BBQ vegetables on oak and vegetable tagine, and sides like half a grilled spring chicken or the fish of the day. The drinks menu focuses on pitas: with hummus and a choice of toppings like dukkah, roasted cauliflower, and BBQ pulled pork belly. All the ingredients you need to linger! And they've taken that into account, too. You can relax at the bar, on the couch, or in one of the other lazy chairs. Will Bartack Amsterdam be as cozy as Bar Spek and Forno? We think so!
