About

The Happy Bull has quickly become the go‑to destination for burger lovers in Amsterdam’s East district. Open from 17:00 to 22:00 Monday‑Thursday and 13:00 to 22:00 Friday‑Sunday, the family‑run restaurant offers a relaxed, in‑house atmosphere and a menu centered on 100% Irish beef burgers, a variety of milkshakes made with authentic Italian ice cream, and a range of sides and desserts. Chef‑crafted burgers feature house‑made sauces, premium cheeses and occasional twists like smoked bacon or roast goat cheese. The menu is built around sustainability – the beef is grass‑fed, locally sourced, and always freshly shredded on site. In addition to its regular dine‑in service, The Happy Bull allows reservations at its online booking portal (https://www.thehappybull.nl/#reservation) and offers delivery through UberEats and Thuisbezorgd for those who prefer a home‑style snack. Guests frequently praise the quality, the friendly staff, and the small‑talk charm that bring a modest, earthy feel to the place – a perfect stop for a casual supper as well as a relaxed gathering with friends or family.
