Came for the show, supposedly starting at 22:00. At 23:00 it still hadn't started, we were told that it would start... when the bar would get crowded. However people were starting to leave at this point.When it finally started, there was two songs performed by someone who looked like they did not want to be there, and then said they would come back later, by which point it was getting late so after 20 more minutes of waiting we left.So clearly not what was advertised on the website, didn't feel like a real show.read more

Absolutely wonderful night! Went on Sunday during the karaoke.I'd tried different places around Amsterdam and was... quite disappointed, since the vibe was usually closed, unwelcoming groups, and nobody seemed approachable or approached me except for drunken flirting.I went in and was cautious. My first impression was like everyone was a regular and knew each other since like for ever! I later learned that wasn't the case. A lot of them had gone in there for the first time and alone, just like me.I watched some people singing as the staff, very politely, kicked a guy out because he was getting a bit out there. Besides that, there were no more incidents.It was nonstop fun! I was super welcomed from the first second. Everybody felt great on stage cos everything was encouragement and clapping. No bad vibes at all.I'm highly social but very picky when it comes to places, because I'm actually quite the introvert, so I never fit in, but here it was amazing. In fact I made lots of friends for the night; we sung duos on stage, and everyone danced and later everyone just sung along every tune.It was formidable. I'm quite the traveler and I can confirm this place is something else.Hours went by and I was surprised when Tori announced it was 2am?!? What?!?Wonderful, seriously. ♥️Thanks to everyone that night for being so lovely, cute and gorgeous♥️♥️read more

I can not believe my recent experience. I came in ready to have a great night and instead felt very unwelcome. I asked... for a recommendation from the bartender and their response was “for you to leave.” Very rude and extremely disrespectful. We planned to have several drinks here and instead left. Sad that we didn’t have the same upbeat bubbly experience so many have.read more

Really enjoyed this bar. Ended up in there three times over the course of a five night break. The cocktails are very... good and they pour from the bottle which is always a good thing. I recommend the AJ Bubble Hummer. The show was very good also. The bar is small but once you get in it is fine and it means people are inclined to talk to each other. I would definitely recommend this bar and will call in if I’m ever back in Amsterdam.read more

I enjoyed myself. The venue was small but the energy wasn't. I order the Legendary B*tch drink with bubble gum simple... syrup. It was delicious.read more

On Saturday I went was more occasional drag popup performances than a proper drag show. Nice vibe, friendly, strong... simple drinks, quick service, and startlingly the cleanest bathroom I've ever seen in a queer bar.read more

I absolutely love this bar, its my home, its the place where i can express myself, its a bar for everyone. I always see... so many beautiful souls be themselves here, drinks price is amazing, the variety and changing of drinks is a cool aspect, their personnel is diverse and always in for a laugh. And toilets are always clean whats a pro and you don’t have to pay for them whats a plus.read more

Yet too close to the Great Rubbish of the Amsterdam City Centre, an astonishing place for freedom. As small as... paradisiacally important. Wonderful drag queens will show you how life can be beautiful, how power is arrogant. Love it.read more

This place is TINY!! I mean so tiny you have to walk across the drag queen stage to get to the pay toilet. Not a fan of... that really. But it’s Europe so... the queens were fun. Drag-bartender was super sweet and fast. I’d give this place 5 stars if it just had more room to mingle and see the show. Local drag host Geneva was actually singing and was awesome. Good gay hangout.read more

Small, crowded, they try to put up a good show with enthusiastic and really well dressed drag queens. However... The... beer is quite steeply priced and it's hard to make out anything with the music cranked up high. Also, as Lellebel is fairly small - a "pijpelaantje" as the Dutch would say - it can be hard to see the shows put up by the queens, or to understand or pass each other. There are great other bars, in or outside of the gay-scene, in town if Lellebel gets overcrowded. And on Friday or Saturdaynight, it might be.read more
