So in this space I view it as a tucked away gem, that's waiting for others to rediscover Amsterdam Cafe... I believe the staff are great the food good as bar food can be....
But in all things Atlanta, people look for how something can be reborn like a phoniex from the ashes...
So in that I would say give them a chance, they are Gay friendly if that matters to you, right off a section of the beltline....
My Humus wrap and bean salad was good to me...
Great neighborhood bar and patio. Very "Cheers" friendly vibe especially among the regular patrons and staff. Perfect spot to chill before or after a day at the park and Beltline. They always have my favorite beer and lemon pepper wings!!! Good food at decent prices in Midtown. Can't beat it!
Just a good vibe sets in as I enjoy my IPA on the outdoor patio. Dogs are always welcome and Ms. Beautiful approves of this location. Wonderful service from people who care. Try not to come at prime time hours to avoid wait times. Local Beers on draft always in rotation. I will be back.
I truly enjoyed my evening at the Amsterdam Cafe. We had our dog with us, and the staff was very accommodating. The staff, the food, the beer selection, everything was excellent. The beer selection was so good you felt like there were things on the menu that you would see nowhere else but there. Even the other people on the patio were extra friendly, giving us local tips and talking to us as though we were regulars.
Been going here for years since being introduced during a Mobile Social cycling event. Love to go to the patio and have a drink and burger on warm Atlanta nights. I would rate five stars, but the "swampydome" has a bit of negative smell influence when the wind is right. Great drinks, great food.
As to the "poor service cause you aren't white claim". I call bullshit and tell you to get over yourself. Considering the demographic that goes here (straight, gay, white, black, etc) it's probably one of the most tolerant establishments I have ever been in. Fairly obvious that someone was just looking to have feelings hurt and wasn't aware of where they were, really.

This is a wonderful place to bring your dog and grab a beer. The service has always been lovely and the food is arguably the best near Piedmont Park. I would love to see this place thrive, so l, disregard the bad reviews!
Amsterdam Cafe has been around for over a decade, it has transition from being a eatery to nightclub to local drive bar, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Gone are the days when the place was packed to the gills with gay patrons drinking and dancing the night away. Instead you'll find a more low-key atmosphere with music videos blaring and maybe a dozen people scattered across the bar largely keeping to their own groups. If you're looking for a pub with minimal fuss Amsterdam Cafe fits the bill. Decent selection of craft beers, martinis and fishbowls which span over two menus.
We come by often......good food, great Sunday brunch......good service! Best pancakes in Atlanta. And BTW people.....its a bar....if you're prissy and expect a gourmet meal and 1st class wait staff don't be so cheap, go to a real restaurant.
Fantastic gay bar with great food and an enormous selection of beers. Super friendly staff. Large TVs make it a great place to watch sports. Great location on the edge of Piedmont Park.
The food here is great and the staff are very friendly. They are taking impressive measures to keep things clean and safe, which is so appreciated. Great stop after the dog park!
