Visit the Hard Rock Cafe in picturesque Amsterdam and enjoy some traditional American fare. Some of the legendary memorabilia on display here include: Eddie Van Halen's trademark Kramer guitar, a small acoustic guitar that was used by Jimi Hendrix and a silver bodysuit worn by Marilyn Manson for a Versace campaign photo shoot.
Tree-lined canals, parks scattered about and bicycle fleets all contribute to the wandering mood of Amsterdam. You can submerge yourself in art, history, 17th and 18th century architecture, a fresh mug of beer, or better yet: the fine dining and a museum's worth of rock memorabilia at the Hard Rock Cafe Amsterdam.
Located near Leidseplein along Max Euweplein, the restaurant is split into three levels to offer you the best gaze upon our waterways, offering a welcoming atmosphere for visitors and locals alike. Live music courtesy of the Paradiso is sure to get those wooden dancing shoes tapping, so get on down to the Hard Rock Cafe Amsterdam for such a great time, you'll be surprised it's legal.
Always book the hard rock when going places incase food is not to our taste. Good food.

We were seated immediately upon arrival, at a table by a window with a view right on the canal. Food was good, too. Wait staff was very attentive.
Review by: Mine O, October 2017
We chose the diamond menu and it was a bit too much for one person, but it lets you taste more for a lesser amount compared to the cafe's regular prices. The smaller portions of chicken wings - oh what a taste! - and the dessert was just enough for me, couldn't eat more even if they served any bigger. We went during daytime, so no live music or long queues, but I'm sure it would be great to skip the lines and enjoy good music.

loved it all, waited about 5mins brought to a table, given a different menu to choose our 2 courses, waitress friendly, happy atmosphere, food was lovely, unlimited soft drinks, well worth a visit and prebooking

Food and service was great! I had 14 people on my party, broken into three small groups--everyone got great service. Loved the Gold Plan we got! Cheers!

The food is decent and staff were great but we did have to wait almost an hour for our table....standing in the bar area._br/_ A good place to go for loud crowd and good drinks.
Review by: dustkim, April 2017
Great time as you would expect from the Hard Rock. Seated right away, and menu was already picked out.
Review by: Michelle C, March 2017
So, this was a memorable Christmas Day meal, but it didn't meet my expectations of outstanding food and atmosphere. Upon arrival we had to wait quite some time to get seated. There had been some clarity needed up until we were seated to try and understand the menu choice for this ticket, is wasn't easy to establish. Sadly the music was too loud to have a conversation with my partner.

Gold menu is very limited but the advert is saying otherwise. There and #39;s only one desert to have. But it has good views of the canals and service is good too just shame advert for this is misleading.
Review by: Susan L, July 2016
Good value. BBQ ribs were delicious! Member in party has gluten issues and they even provided different dessert for that member.
Review by: Nicola B, July 2016
Excellent evening. Staff were all very friendly and helpful.
Review by: Marie H, June 2016
didn't have to wait too long for a table as we were priority booking we were a partay of 3 we got seated upstairs we had purchased the diamond menu 3 courses we must say all 3 courses were plentiful and delicious you get free refills of soft drink which is also very good the staff were awsome as they sang happy birthday to my cousin well recommended xx
No waiting in line which was great. Food was okay - nothing spectacular. We went a bit late - at 10:00 p.m. Restaurant closes at 11:00 p.m. so our waiter directly told us from the start to hurry up which didi not offend us, we understand, but it certainly did not make us feel welcome either._br/_ The restaurant in itself is beautiful and the shop has a good variety of merchandise.

We went to the cafe on Friday. There were already a lot of people waiting there at 6pm and we have waited for an hour. As we need to visit Van Gogh Museum at that time, we came back to the cafe at around 9pm. Better to allow more spare time to wait for the tables or visit the cafe at non-peak hours.

I loved this tour. I was so happy not to have to wait in those long lines to get a table. I definitely felt VIP and the food was great. Would do it again!
Review by: Lyn G, October 2015
No menu was available to us, as we had purchased this voucher prior to our holiday departure. Lovely meal and seating area watching the canal boats go by. Staff took no consideration for customers trying to enjoy there meal, as they were messing around at the bar area.

This tour was amazing!
Review by: Karen11658, September 2015
We arrived that evening with our visitor voucher and within 2 minutes we were seated. The estimated waiting time for the guest ahead of us was 45 minutes. Had a perfect seat overlooking the canal. Great food!
Review by: Bernardette C, August 2015
All went up to our expectations.As soon as I presented the voucher we were presented to our table as I had requested overlooking the canal. The italian guy taking care of us was extremely cordial and he was pleased to know we come from his neighbouring country Malta. Food as usual at The Hard Rock Cafe is exceptional. We enjoyed the entire evening.
Review by: Christine, August 2015
Great if you don't fancy waiting for hours to get a table. When we got there, the restaurant is quite busy but we were able to get a seat straightaway. The food is also good so for the price we've paid, it was well worth it.
Review by: Gillian R, July 2015
Limited menu but food lovely ......huge portions.
Review by: Shirley S, July 2015
Very busy place but our pre-booked ticket got us in straightaway._br/_ Meal was somewhat rushed. We had not finished our starters when the main meal arrived. Not very professional. Cost of memorabilia was extortionate

Food was just okay
Review by: JACQUELINE W, March 2015
So glad we did this - Valentines evening and the wait for a table was 3 hours!! We went straight in and were seated within 5 minutes. Food was great value for money / had 3 courses and complimentary Processo for the cost of less than a main - could not fault it. Definitely booking this for Paris in March.
Review by: Jan M, February 2015
This was a great start to our European adventure. The Viator voucher avoided the 3 hour wait (yes, 3 hours) and we were seated in 20 minutes. The food was fantastic and the portions HUGE which was a big surprise. Our waiter Paul was fun, cute, courteous and just made our experience a pleasure. I would definitely recommend this and I will do it in future cities as well. Took all the discussion out of where to dine the first night of our trip. Really a good deal.
Review by: Rebecca M, February 2015
staff rude and tables too close together, we had to keep moving so they could get through with dirty dishes._br/_
No problems at any of the other Hard Rock cafes around the world I have been to.
Review by: JohnAllred, September 2014
We got into Amsterdam late at night but were able to get in there with no problem. Food was great and there were no problems.
Review by: Hannah S, August 2014
Great value if you're after a meal at Hard Rock, definitely cheaper than just turning up and paying full menu price, and we also didn't have to wait for a table - the family behind us were told it would be a 45 minute wait but we got straight in. Also a reasonable choice on the menu and we got a free gift voucher for the shop for spending over 25 euros which was on our set menu so another bonus! Would definitely recommend for anyone who wants a good value meal out. Service was fantastic too.

friendly and helpful staff, good value for money in a busy restaurant
Review by: James S, June 2014
I did this only so I would know where I was having dinner on my first night in Amsterdam. I showed up when they were fairly busy but was told they would have a table shortly and that I could wait in the bar. I had barely received my drink when the table was ready. The staff knew all about the voucher and the service was very good even though the waiter was pretty sure he wasn't going to get tipped as everything was pre-paid. I say this because he was surprised when I did. Table was nice, overlooking the canal and the food was what I would expect from a Hard Rock anywhere. I would do this again.
