I have feen physically abused my a male customer. I tried to make it as polite as I can to the staff, but they were afraid of the guy and blamed me for over reacting. I just said to the staff that if anyone touched your sister,wife, mother In the way she didn’t want to get touch, how would you react? No reaction. They were on the side of the offender because I’m just a woman.

This is not a safe place for woman. People will harass you and bar staff will not do anything about it. More than anything that will make you feel like it’s YOUR fault.

The place has a lot of beers, excellent variety and quality.
I was already planning on giving a good review and to make it better, I forgot my bag then and they were so kind to keep it safe for me!
Royal assortiment of beers, friendly personel and fair pricing. You should go here.
Over the past 20 years, I've been returning to this pub every few months (wish I had more spare time) and always left happy, satisfied and willing to come back soon.
That should be your incentive to go. Do it!

Simply the best craft beer joint in Leeuwarden. We found our favorite beers from Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands! (Also, the best bitterballen) Super friendly staff, and we even met the owners.
For the TLDR: generation:
Brilliant specialty beer pub with very nice and knowledgeable staff in a cosy environment!
For every one else:
Wandered in here without knowing it was a specialty beer pub (walked around the city, started getting thirsty, noticed people drinking on a terrace, so walked in).
Only to be greeted by a very homely pub, with all the signs and menus showing that it, indeed, was a specialty beer pub 😃. What followed was a _very_ pleasant two hours of my life, which only remained two hours, because they were closing early on Sundays... Boo... 😁 Hiss...😁
One of the first things I noticed was a cat walking around, which turned out to be the housecat, and which was imaginatively called "Cat"😁. Very friendly animal, frequently jumping up customers laps to be petted and stroked. Only mentioning this because it enhanced the already homely atmosphere the pub was radiating.
Had (amongst others) the most amazing sour beer there, which was incidentally also a local beer (kudos Grutte Pier 👍). I liked it so much I asked if I could take home a couple of bottles, but they didn't have the license to sell beers to be taken away. They did however provide me with a name and a map to the local booze supply shop, which might still have and sell these bottles. Thank you 😘!
All in all an enormously pleasant experience, and one that made me decide to come back to the city of Leeuwarden (which was an unexpected positive surprise anyway) and to this pub!
Thank you and hopefully see you soon!
