Go early! I went here on both trips I took because of the barbecue chicken sandwich, the best I have ever had, and both times it was very crowded at dinner time. You can put your name on the list and do some walking, but if you just get there about 10 minutes before dinner time (5ish) you will miss the line.

This is a large Hard Rock, and has great seating on the second floor by the windows along a canal.

It was great and the staff was fun. The bar overlooks one of the canals. You can even sit outside the bar area on the water.

This is a classic Hard Rock Cafe overlooking a canal and close to the major museums. The key with Hard Rocks is that you know exactly what you're going to get -- good food, good beer, and good music -- anywhere in the world. That works for me.

Hard Rock Cafe

It might surprise you to hear that the Hard Rock Cafe has some of the best drinks in Amsterdam. The Dutch aren't big fans of cocktails and, when offered, mixed drinks are usually expensive. The Hard Rock offers up their usual selection of drinks for (at least for Amsterdam) reasonable prices. The menu is exactly the same as you will find in American branches, as the Amsterdam branch is owned and operated by the same company. World-famous burgers, chicken wings and honking big salads are the norm. The food is likewise comparable to the quality on offer in the States. Located in busy Max Euweplein, the Hard Rock is a nice respite from the usual staid Dutch service. The waitstaff is extremely friendly and helpful. There is a patio for warmer weather dining and the indoor dining looks out onto a canal. The interior features the usual mishmash of rock memorabilia and large screen TVs playing a mix of videos. The volume is left low enough to allow conversation - unlike in some other Hard Rock Cafes I have seen. If you are just stopping by to pick up souvenirs, a separate entrance to the boutique is on the left.

I haven't seen the Amsterdam location get terribly busy, but you may want to allow a few extra minutes to get seated as reservations aren't taken. While most restaurants in Amsterdam close down early, the kitchen here is open until 11:30pm. That makes it the perfect stop after catching Boom Chicago in nearby Leidseplein or after a long day of sightseeing!
