Jopen is renowned for its craft beers brewed on-site, offering a unique selection that reflects the rich brewing heritage of the Netherlands.

With its unique setting in a former church, lively atmosphere, and delicious food and drinks, Jopen offers a memorable experience for both beer lovers and casual diners.

I had a good dinner with my dear friend. The food was delicious and the place is definitely unique. It is not a fancy place as it is young and loud and gives a bar vibe which fit my casual occasion. The food looks fancy and is high quality, overall a great dinner and will be a returning guest. I recommend it!

A brewery located in a desecrated church. The place is an awesome mix of wood, stone and modern brewing devices. Colors and light just add to the overall impression. The place is very busy, so it is good to reserve in advance. Hamburgers were great, mushroom soup as well. Beers are top, this is one of the best Dutch breweries. Only a small minus point goes to the service. It is not bad but overwhelmed during rush hours

The beer is fantastic but you cannot taste all the wonderful flavours because the wait is too long and there’s not enough staff who pays attention to you! It’s a shame as the building is amazing and there are around 20 beers on the tap! So, definitely visit but do reserve plenty of time to enjoy it here.

We had dinner reservations, but it appeared there was a private party in the dining room so we were seated in the bar area. This made ordering a little confusing. No one came to our table, we had to ask to order. Afterwards, we found out we could have ordered via app at the table. Once we ordered, food was served promptly.

Food and drinks were good. Great atmosphere.

Very atmospheric place—beautiful and unique. It has a great vibe that feels special.
There’s an interesting selection of beers, but it’s hard to choose without some guidance. Unfortunately, we didn’t get much help from the staff. We waited a long time at the bar before anyone noticed us. When they did, they couldn’t really explain the beer options, which was disappointing.
The beer itself was okay—not bad, but nothing impressive. The atmosphere was definitely the highlight, but the service left much to be desired.
