Amsterdam Bar & Hall was opened in 2011 by Jon (father) and Jarret (son) Oulman, owners of the 331 Club in NE Minneapolis, with the intent of livening up St. Paul's nightlife culture. It has become the premier live music venue in St. Paul, and it's a very popular destination. The atmosphere is casual and relaxed until there's music, and then it's lively and entertaining. The menu includes kippenbout, loempias, and broodjes. Their drinks include Tecate, Loon Juice, and Le Vielle Ferme Rose.
