Law & Order

Amsterdam, Netherlands

Law & Order gets its name, not from the crime television series franchise, but rather the street this cocktail bar resides on, and specifically its varied history involving civic guards in the 16th century, and a reputation for violence until not very long ago. Nowadays, what De Voetboogstraat should be more widely known for is this proper cocktail bar, with its list of interesting yet accessible twists on classics. The entertaining team of bartenders sling drinks such as the Pink Pisco with rhubarb, lemon and egg white, or the eponymous Law & Order Manhattan with bourbon, bianco vermouth, port, beetroot and pecan. Don’t let the serious name fool you – this is a fun, unpretentious bar with hip hop on the stereo, a living room feel and a casual attitude.
