Don't we all have these cocktail nights? Yes, we do. Even the guys love their occasional pina colada.
However, in Amsterdam cocktails can get quite expensive which really is a shame. I mean, in Berlin you can cocktails starts from € 3,50 if you find a nice, cheap place. Unfortunately, Amsterdam isn't as cheap as Berlin and therefore I had to change my beloved habit of going to cocktail bars - or sometimes restaurants.
That was until I visited my mom in a restaurant she was having dinner with. She was out, having some dinner, having some nice cocktails, some nice chats, but only her primal scream for cocktails made me move my booty to Los Pilones near Leidseplein, Amsterdam.
I mean, Mexican food is perfectly fine, but dem cocktails are even better! And the best thing about this place is: they give you the rest of the mixture.
So first, you get this big ass glass in which they pour your angelic frozen strawberry margarita. Then, you get this super cute jug in which they pour the rest of the mixture as they prepared your drink.
You can get these babies for € 7-something, hold up, let me check that, -,95. The prices are pretty much normal for Amsterdam, however the quantity is giving my heart joy. So much joy.
They have some different types but not too many. After all, it's still a restaurant and not a cocktail bar. However, look at the bright side: you can try them all in one night!
You can find this little piece of heaven in two places: Nieuwmarkt and near Leidseplein. I went to the one near Leidseplein which was perfect.

Mwu ha ha ha ! Cocktail time!
For sure!
Hmm, strawberry frozen margarita... you should come to Cambodia... cocktails start at $1.5 and go to a max of $7 at fancy places.
That sounds amazing! Unfortunately we won't be visiting Cambodia, so I have high hopes for Thailand!

Good friend
mexican food and cocktails, sounds good. Haven't had any cocktail in years in Amsterdam. Like you said, way too expensive. I'll just make them at home. Or get one on an all inclusive cruise ;)
An all inclusive cruise doesn't sound very cheap either! However, it might be when you drink cocktails all day!
Making cocktails is somehow never as tasty as getting them outside though! Maybe you can try these :D
I did a cruise with Pullmantur, which can be pretty cheap ;) And yeah, cocktails all day!! I joined the nomadcruise but just Pullmantur is possible too. I'll have to give this restaurant a try. I don't know of many amazing Mexican places in Amsterdam, so welcome addition to my list.
Good choice
A cocktail done right can really show your guests that you care.
Yummmmm
Yummm for sure!
Cheers. Save water and drink cocktails & Champagne🥂 🍸🍹
Ohhhyes. Sounds like a motto!
Makes me want a good cocktail myself :)
What's stopping you?! :d
Well that is one good question my friend :)
Go for it!
