Excellent(6)

$$$$Price: Moderate

• Cocktail Bar • Amsterdam-Zuid

Ruby Emma's bar located on the ground floor has an amazing story telling theme. From wind-powered gadgets and hand-wound machines to pedal- and potato-powered contraptions, the bar is abuzz with alternative energy. And when it comes to style, we've taken a steer from the 60s, when wind power took off again in Amsterdam. Mid-century modern and pre-loved pieces in bright, fresh tones showcase natural materials and the beauty of reusing and recycling. It's an inspiring space where people come together to share tall tales and grand plans, catch an up-and-coming band, or just unwind with a skilfully shaken cocktail.Find an armchair in a cosy nook, grab a table, or perch at the bar - our designers have ensured everyone has a comfy spot.

I typically don't give places glowing five-star reviews, as there's often one or two things that didn't work out as I'd expected. That's never been the case with a Hard Rock visit, regardless of the location. My kids and I make it a point to visit a Hard Rock Cafe in every major city that has a restaurant there. The kids have a growing collection of souvenir Hard Rock shirts, even if they have outgrown most. The food is always top-notch. I don't recall ever experiencing issues with food quality or quantity, and I've been visiting HRC locations since I was a teen, more than 30 years ago.

I could not recommend Ferilli’s any more - great service, lovely, friendly, and welcoming staff. Flexible and were very accommodating even though we were late. The food quality is fantastic, very tasty, full of flavour and great value. What more can a customer want? Perfect!!!

We only came for a cocktail, which were pricey but good. The interior and appearance of everything including staff was impeccable. However, service was on the slow side and our invoice was wrong two times. But it's definitely a nice place for a fancy date :)
