Overview
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 – customers can also choose a vegan bitterballen so no need to miss out at De Pierewaaier!
With your pass, you'll get free entry, 1 drink (wine, beer, soda), crisps, 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.

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