Mussel & Gin, Amsterdam

The name actually says it all; This bar/restaurant is the perfect place for mussels and of course gin and tonic. Mossel & Gin is located on the Westergasterrein, where quite a few gin and tonics are served. If you want to have a bite to eat, in addition to mussels, you can also choose from various seafood dishes, such as oysters, fish & chips and shrimp bitterballen. There are also plenty of options for vegetarians, such as oyster mushroom satay and vegan tartare.

Mr. Finch, Utrecht

Stroll along the canals and have a gin and tonic poured by Mr. Finch. And would you like to eat it again at home? Become a pro in shaking cocktails yourself and take a cocktail workshop at this bar.

Bar TwentySeven, Amsterdam

Bar TwentySeven is a bar where the impossible is made possible. Be seduced by gin and tonics and other cocktails with innovative creations and take a seat in the elegant design. A visit to this bar is an experience in itself. And there is also a chance that you will bump into the Netherlands' largest YouTuber Kwebbelkop here.

Mr. Mofongo, Groningen

This bar in the North is a true household name. Mr. Mofongo was first voted Best Cocktail Bar in the Netherlands and offers a variety of gin and tonics and other cocktails. And that's not all. The bar is not only served by bartenders, but also by a robot. A robot arm taps the right drinks in the eight-metre high cupboard behind the bar, which are distilled one floor higher. So everything under one roof.

Mr. Smith, Maastricht

Coincidentally, this bar also starts with 'Mr.'. The stylish furnishings allow you to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The wooden bar looks like a theater and the intimate atmosphere creates a lot of fun.
