A must visit if you're in Utrecht. 1890s church turned beer bar. Over 60 different beers, tasty food and attentive staff. First place with real Duvel on tap. Try the ham on a bone.

Great place to bring guests. It has an usual atmosphere (bar/ restaurant in a former church) and a great selection of beer. Food is simple but tasty and served with arguably the best fries in Utrecht.

A really crowded place, but try to have at least a beer here during your stay in Utrecht. How they've arranged the old church to a pub is amazing. And a list of (also craft) beers will astonish you.

Former "schuilkerk" now a bar with really good atmosphere. Try the Celis White, Triple Karmeliet and Delirium Tremens. You will see pink elephants:) Good food too!

Awarded “Best Café of the Netherlands” by many. Drinking your Belgian beers in a beautifully renovated church is a unique experience indeed. Too bad it got só crowded over the years.

Very special location, old church hidden behind a normal townhouse façade. All the beers (especially Belgian of course) you could ever wish for!
Anya PratskevichApril 21, 2015
Great choice of beer, good food, and delightful service. Try Triple Karmeliet when in doubt. Unique setting too, to say the least)

Great ambiance and atmosphere (set in an old church) with an amazing selection of Belgian beers. Board games available as well that was a nice touch.
Jeremy AkersSeptember 15, 2014
So much delicious beer, but be wary many are QUITE strong. We're talking 8-11% alcohol by volume. Feel free to ask for recommendations. Try the Straffe Hendrik if they have it

Great location, right at Utrecht Centraal, therefore very crowded. There's a reason for that, the beer selection is great.
Giuseppe SpinaJune 28, 2017
Amazing beer selection and worth getting tasting boards where you can pick 3 beers to try and share.

Always a few specials beers on draft and bottle to try out!
Koen KoppensDecember 25, 2009
Try Kwak bier, be careful when drinking (special glass, makes spilling easy). Because the glasses are expensives you might have to leave 1 shoe at the bar :) Read more

Located in an old church. A wide selection of beer though not as many dutch options

Been to 3 locations (Leiden, Delft, Utrecht). Great interiors / ambiance, beer selection, menu. However, very poorly trained wait staff! They try, but just do not have a clue how to run things! Sad...
