In deze Ierse pub, één van de oudste traditionele Ierse drinkgelegenheden van de stad, is het altijd weer genieten geblazen. Uiteraard is er Iers bier op tap zoals Guinness en Kilkenny en biedt de bar ook vele Ierse whiskies. Bovendien noemt Mulligans zichzelf niet voor niets Irish Music Bar: bijna elke avond zijn er live optredens. De muziek is hoofdzakelijk Keltisch georiënteerd en alle bands bieden een authentiek Iers geluid. Iedere week is er een open podium voor beginnende muzikanten. Het personeel is vriendelijk en de sfeer is levendig en gezellig.
This late night refuge is named after the old iron ship that was originally moored on Amsterdam's qua. The ship may be long gone, but the bar remains and Cafe Pollux is the kind of place that welcomes everyone through its doors. The music is old school, with a jukebox blasting out classic rock. Wax statues of the couple that run the place make for some interesting decor. Whether you're there just for drinks, to attend one of the bar's theme nights or to watch a football match, Cafe Pollux is happy to have you.

Keeping with the name of this cocktail bar, Hiding in Plain Sight or HPS does not seem like much when you enter the ground floor bar, but climb a few stairs to the top level and you will find yourself in a much different setting. The small seating area is always buzzing and packed to the brim, which is why HPS insists that groups of 6 or more make a reservation in advance. The lively and fun atmosphere can be attributed to their sophisticated and perfectly crafted cocktails like the Walking Dead, Voodoo Child and the Vieux Carre. Complementary olives and mixed nuts are served at every table. Take in the 1920s style decor as you sip one one of their cocktails and enjoy a great night ahead, a guarantee at HPS.
