About this restaurant
De Blauwe Parade, nestled in the vibrant heart of Amsterdam's North Holland Province, offers a refined Dutch cocktail bar experience perfect for an evening out. From March 2026, it operates as a key component of the new "Bouillon d'Amsterdam" culinary concept at the same Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal address, featuring expertly crafted drinks under the guidance of bartender Milos Stanisic. Expect a sophisticated yet inviting atmosphere where the focus is on innovative cocktails rather than full meals.
Open daily from 16:00, De Blauwe Parade is an ideal spot for pre-dinner drinks or a relaxed evening of conversation and small plates. While cocktails are the stars, priced between €10 and €13, the kitchen provides a selection of delicious bar snacks and light bites to complement your chosen libation. This makes it a great choice for those seeking a casual dining experience or a sophisticated place to unwind.
Conveniently located at Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal 178, the bar is just a short stroll from iconic landmarks like Dam Square and the Royal Palace. Access is easy via Amsterdam's extensive public transport network, with nearby tram stops on Dam Square or Nieuwendijk. For a truly Dutch experience, consider renting a bicycle to explore the city before settling in for a cocktail. This venue suits travelers looking for a chic bar with a local touch and excellent drinks in a central, accessible location.
