actually the best borrel snacks I have ever had (amazing onion rings) and the waiter was so lovely

Nice bar and super cozy

The atmosphere is fantastic. It's right on the famous Reguliersdwarsstraat, a bustling street with lots of people passing by. So, if you like a lively and sociable atmosphere, this is the place for you. The staff is very friendly, kind, and helpful. A guest wasn't feeling well outside, and instead of asking him to leave, the staff kindly brought him a glass of water. Very commendable and considerate. You feel truly welcome here, no matter who you are. If it gets a bit chilly outside, there are also small patio heaters, and if it's warmer, small fans at the tables. I'll definitely be back.

Friendly staff, delicious Aperol Spritz, free snacks like ice cream ♥️

I had a delayed flight and had to wait until the next morning to catch my train. Once I arrived at Taboo, the bouncer indicated that I could put my suitcase behind the bar, provided I discussed it with the manager. The manager thought otherwise. I indicated that I found his treatment unfriendly, after which he called the bouncer to kick me out. I walked upstairs to place my suitcase above the lockers (on the bouncer's advice, in case I couldn't fit it behind the bar). Afterwards, I spoke with the bouncer and explained that I had told the bar manager that I found him unfriendly and was immediately asked to leave the bar. Eventually, I talked it out with the bar manager outside, during which he clearly indicated that he was the one who decided how things were done. I complied and apologized, and then I was allowed back inside after all (I had to wait out my time until the first train anyway). Otherwise, I had a fine evening, and the bar manager simply came to provide me with beer. However, at the end of the evening at 3:00 AM, everyone was ordered to leave within a minute (I am not exaggerating). Drinks could be poured into plastic cups (though you had to arrange these yourself from behind the bar). A woman who indicated she wanted to use the restroom because she was getting her period was refused entry because the bouncer 'wanted to go home'. I experienced all of this because I just needed to pack my suitcase. When I pointed out that I found it strange that people were ordered outside so quickly, the answer I received was: 'I want to go home.' All in all, I found the staff absolutely not hospitable and would rather recommend spending an evening at the other gay bars in the Reguliers.

Very rude staff

I've been coming here for years and it used to feel like a genuine LGBTQ+ space where I felt comfortable and at home. Lately, I've noticed that the atmosphere has changed. I see more and more straight couples, and while everyone should be welcome, I no longer feel the same sense of belonging that I used to. For me, it's not about excluding anyone, but about preserving the feeling of a space that was created primarily for the LGBTQ+ community. Because of that, I find myself coming here less often than before. It's a shame, because this used to be one of my favorite places in Amsterdam.

Good place

Try the Negroni without the straw and a Aperol sprits with a splash of Tabasco. Shhh pro tips only.
