Located just a short walk from Amsterdam Centraal Station, this microbrewery, pub and restaurant is a hip hangout for fans of good beer and BBQ chicken.
Beer and chicken in Amsterdam
They say it's better to do a few things well, and Beerfabriek (literally meaning 'beer factory') certainly fits that bill. The microbrewery serves up just three home-brewed varieties (Puur, Rosso and Nero) and a small but exceptional selection of food, with 24 hour marinated BBQ chicken being the speciality. Beers are served either at the bar, or can be self-poured at one of the pub's group tap-tables. On Fridaynight you can enjoy live-music at the Bierfabriek.
