Studio 80
Rembrandtplein 17 (521 83 33). Smallish club on rowdy Rembrandtplein, with DJ's and live acts. Pretty laid-back atmosphere and staff with matching attitude, and a really good sound system.

Relaxed and easy-going atmosphere, moderate prices for drink.Open daily except Tue 9pm-4am/5am. [1 review, 10/10] Trouw Wibautstraat 131 (463 77 88). 
Club-cum-restaurant Trouw houses in the former printing works of a major Dutch newspaper, and this shows - the club occupies all of 2000 m2 of pretty bare industrial space. Throw in a large and excellent soundsystem and there you have the Trouw no-frills club approach. Progressive electronic sounds are the main fare here. The restaurant serves up international streetfood, and is open until 2am on Saturday nights, which is pretty amazing by Amsterdam standards!Club open Fri-Sat 10pm-5am. Restaurant open Tue-Fri 18:30pm-11pm, Sat 18:30pm-2am. [1 reviews, avg 9/10] |
