Bears, Pups, Kinksters and casuals alike are all welcome here. Great drinks and fun times are just around the corner here

I got slapped on my bum without any consent and later they kicked us out because "as I quote" basically didn't drink enough drinks in the half an hour we were there although we all had bought a drink.I got the feeling by the bar personal that we met that they are completely not into a young pup group.As a kink community member this experience is completely unacceptable and not representative for our super small kink community anyways regarding whatever your sexual preferences are.

This is a nice chill bear bar. Good music, pretty cozy and the friendly staff. They also have a good range of specific events for bear, leather communities etc. Definitely a good place to meet other gay men

A lovely bar for bears and their admirers in Amsterdam! The location is wonderfully central, just a short 3-minute stroll from the main train station. The atmosphere was delightful, and the bartender—whose name I unfortunately can’t recall, but he was German—was incredibly friendly. The drinks were delightful, and I absolutely enjoyed the music!

Bears Amsterdam is more than just a bar; it's a cozy home for the bear community and their allies. My first time here, I was a bit nervous, but the warm atmosphere and friendly staff made me feel right at home. The bartenders are fantastic, and the crowd is incredibly welcoming. It's a great place to meet new people, have a laugh, and enjoy a few drinks without any pressure. The vibe is laid-back and inclusive. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in the city!

I went on a Monday, and despite not being the busiest day I had the best of times and luck! 🔥🔥🔥

Nice vibe with a diverse mix of people 🙂 Relaxed atmosphere and friendly crowd — a great spot if you’re into the classic cruising bar scene during daytime in Amsterdam. 🐻✨

I’m really disappointed with the service I experienced tonight from one of your barmen. I don’t know his name, but if you check the cameras between 21:40 and 22:00 on 07/09/2025, you’ll see what happened. Honestly, he was the rudest barman I’ve ever come across.Here’s the situation: I had a drink from CuckooNest and walked into Bears Bar without realizing it wasn’t allowed to carry drinks between the two. I placed my drink on the bar, and this barman immediately grabbed it, put it down, and tried to throw it away. When I asked for it back, he flat-out refused and spoke to me in such a rude and dismissive way. Eventually, I insisted and told him I’d just return to CuckooNest with it.I even raised the issue with his colleague, who explained the rule to me (which I now understand). But the real issue is the way this barman treated me — with zero respect, almost like he was looking for conflict. His attitude was disgusting and completely ruined my night. I spoke to him politely at first, but his behavior was unprofessional, arrogant, and honestly unacceptable.I’d really appreciate it if you could connect me with the bar manager. I think this barman needs either proper training on how to treat customers or, at the very least, to be held accountable for how he behaved.

I had a great time at The Web. The bartender was very nice. The crowd is a bit older but very friendly. The beer selection was great (both draft and bottle). I will definitely be back the next time that I'm in Amsterdam.

Was here 30 years, has changed a lot. Social media had ruined what is was, if your 50 and over you'll understand my post. Kevin the bartender was great!

Up to date venue. Mixed crowd. I'm so glad that it isn't a cruise bar anymore. Very relaxed and hetero friendly.

Decent place, enjoyed my stay here. Wish the crowd was a bit more diverse though as someone who's in their 20s and female presenting definitely feels a little out of place. Would love to meet more people my age and/or gender!I like that the bar is not too overstimulating though, it's a nice place to just sit with friends or strike up conversation.Maybe if I visit more often, a more diverse crowd will form? Obviously if no one takes the first step to hang around, the middle aged male crowd will persist. I wonder at times if I'm simply not the crowd The Web is there to serve though, if this is the case feel free to let me know and I'll find a new bar 🙂
