Bimhuis

Fodor's Choice

The best-known jazz place in town occupies the utterly awesome Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ. Everyone from fans of the old legends to those of the latest avant-gardists agrees: the space is close to perfect. Views of the city are breathtaking, the acoustics great, the chairs comfy, and the house rules laid-back; all drinks ordered at the bar, even full wine bottles, can be carried inside.

Hannekes Boom

Fodor's Choice

This hippie hot spot offers a waterfront terrace, boat access, and live music some nights.
