What you'll do

Get yourself over to the lovely neighborhood of Jordaan in Amsterdam while on your travels and experience an area brimming with culture, history and delicious food and drink.

Just a 5-minute walk from the Anne Frank House, you'll find the charming, traditional Dutch bar De Pierewaaier where you'll be welcomed with open arms and invited to experience fantastic culture in the form of live music, drinks and popular snacks like bitterballen.

What is bitterballen? We're glad you asked! Often served as a tapas-style dish, they are deep-fried, breadcrumb-coated balls typically filled with beef or veal ragout and go down best with some mustard and a nice cold beer. And don't worry, non-meat-eaters – many places in Jordaan offer a veggie/vegan alternative so no need to miss out at De Pierewaaier!

With your pass, you'll get free entry, 2 drinks (wine, beer, soda) and a portion of bitterballen. This experience is a perfect way to unwind after some busy sightseeing while also still immersing yourself in Dutch culture.

Facts

  • Bitterballen is thought to be invented in the 18th century and became widley popular in the 19th century in cafés and bars where they were served with drinks.

  • The name "bitterballen" comes from the Dutch word "bitter," referring to the Dutch-style beer (often bitter beer) usually enjoyed alongside the snack.
