Amsterdam’s Original cocktailbar

– Since 2004

At NJOY, we’ve been crafting unforgettable cocktails since before it was cool. As the oldest cocktail bar in Amsterdam, we’ve spent decades shaking, stirring, and reinventing the classics — creating signature drinks with bold personality and unforgettable flavor.

But getting older? That just means we’ve mastered the art.

Our bartenders are among the very best in the city — true artists behind the bar who bring passion, precision, and a bit of fire to every pour. And we mean that literally — sometimes you light the spark.

NJOY isn’t just a name — it’s a legacy. We’re proud to be two-time winners of the World Class Competition Netherlands, with our iconic cocktails Envy Me and Thunderball.

Join us, and taste why time only makes legends stronger.
