De Hems Dutch Cafe Bar in City of London, Westminster

I’m been coming here for a very long time and it’s always excellent which is quite the achievement over 20 years. Pricey, but then it is in Chinatown. You get what you pay for.

A real gem tucked into Chinatown. Great selection of Dutch and Belgian beers with the correct accompanying glass. Usually have sports on the TV. Good atmosphere..tried the Bitterballen before and they were nice

I was in here for an hour or so on a Saturday night, there was a singer with his guitar, great atmosphere, would come back.

A brilliant pub with brilliant staff. Love the beer and also its location and atmosphere. Possibly one of my favourite London pubs. Go there enjoy a beer and enjoy yourself.

Probably my favourite pub in Chinatown and Soho. The vibe is amazing and the beer is so good 👍 Love going here and looking forward to many more visits in the future.

Great beers, though some vaguely medicinal. Excellent food in the bar. Attentive staff. Huge range of beers

Good choice of bottled beer and lager type beers on draught. Friendly bar staff good atmosphere.

Such a lovely selection of European beers. It's a one to go to when in Chinatown.

Great selection of Belgium Beers

Loosing its Dutch identity rapidly and very generic beers on. Nothing special. Noisy and turning more into a sports bar than an authentic Dutch café. Very sad to see this going downhill.

Great beer line up and great staff!

Great pub with an outrageous amount of Belgian and Dutch beers. Staff were very knowledgeable about them and gave great suggestions

Nice concept but unfortunately far too commercial.

We just popped in for a quick drink before our theatre show. Very friendly. Good selection of drinks available.

Nice selection of beer and cozy atmosphere

Heineken no sabía muy bien, las Croquetas se quemaron. El personal del bar de arriba fue grosero. Lástima que soy medio holandés, así que para mí es mi deber asegurarme de que vamos aquí cuando estamos en el pub de Londres. Probablemente gastar dinero en otro lugar en el futuro 🫤

La bière est fraîche, un large choix de bières belges très sympas mais…. Un gros bémol sur l’accueil et la bienveillance, nous faisons répéter la serveuse au bar, aucun effort pour parler lentement, pas cool.

A great find in London which serves a superb range of beers. Excellent atmosphere and decent prices. Its a definite goto when we visit London, loads of food spots close by before or after a few strong beers.

A very nice Dutch pub and grill in the heart of Chinatown in London. They have many dutch beers on draft as well as wines and spirits. Also, Dutch food on the menu. With my father being from Holland, I had quite a craving for croquettes and frikandels ever since I tried them. So I ordered the platter. So delicious!!

Nice pub on two floors, Dutch beer and bitterballen, several TVs with sports

Hadn’t visited for a while and had an excellent time at the weekend. Nice cold beer and a great atmosphere!

Best place in London by far. Nicest bartenders and great atmosphere

Probably the best pub in Soho! Great selection on beers and the atmosphere and service is always great! The Assistant Manager is a great guy and always has time for a chat.

I have been a De Hems patriot for over a decade now. This pub isn't just any establishment; it offers one of the most exquisite yet affordable beer selections in all of London! Apart from this, the ambience and service is casual, easy and friendly. Thankful to the assistant manager who is responsible in enhancing my beer palette and always welcoming!

Need a bit more Dutch during your stay in London? Then definitely go in there for their wide variety of beers!

Great range of quality beers and food was superb

Always a must visit if you’re in the area! The selection of beers is unbeatable, and the food hits the spot!

Gran variedad de cerveza y comida. Muy diferente a tu pub promedio. Ábrete paso a través de las cervezas de botella, hay tantas para elegir

Great pub, a real little gem. If you fancy something different to the average pub in London give it a try.

Lugar increíble con un gran ambiente y comida. Gran interior acogedor con gran música que lo convierte en un gran lugar para un par de bebidas

Este pub tiene un ambiente excelente. Entré en un gemido con algunos amigos y el personal era genial, las bebidas variadas y la estética increíble. Si tienes algunos amigos inseguros de qué hacer en Leicester Square recomiendo encarecidamente!

Had a great evening for some leaving drinks. Staff were sharp, friendly and attentive. Great vibes. Bitterballen 5*

Beautiful pub with a great selection of Belgian & Dutch beers. Must visit if you are in the city.

GREAT selection of Dutch beers!! Wonderful service and superb atmosphere. We will be back!

Great atmosphere with a wide variet of different authentic dutch and brlgian beers to choose from!

Such a great experience! My husband and I popped over here after a play and had several Belgian beers (they have such a big section!!) and then had Fish & Chips! Super tasty and our server (Nishaan) was so friendly and made sure we were taken care of! We would come back again!

Fantastic spot right next to Chinatown to catch a game and have a great selection of beers available to you - £10+ for a pint of Delirium Tremens unfortunately reminds you you're still in London, but can't fault it outside of that!

Nice relaxed atmosphere, great service and friendly staff that advise you on what they serve.

Me and my colleagues came here for some drinks after work, very nice place and great atmosphere, we had so much fun. Highly recommended

Im dissapointed with the lack of service we received today. The woman who greeted and served us really didn't care. No hello - just a blunt "can I help". There was no smile or friendliness there and we felt like we were a bother from the momemt we stepped in. She didn't explain that you have to order food at the bar, even though we were sat in a dining area that felt like it should have had table service. She was busy talking with her colleague behind the bar and having a coffee. So after 15 minutes I went up to her to ask if we could order food. I guess I interrupted her so got a blunt "yeah, what do you want". She then continued chatting with her colleague whilst placing my order and taking payment. I also found it strange I had to pay upfront for our food as again, we were seating upstairs in the restaurant area. Next up - the food was shocking. We waited 35 minutes (!!!) without anyone coming to explain why the wait was long. My partner received a plate of burnt bitterballen (see photo). If a Chef cant deep-fry basi food, they shouldnt be working in a kitchen. My "stoofvlees" had about 5 small pieces of meat with a mountain of chips and salads (nice flavours there). No-one came to check if we were happy with the food, and no-one asked when they cleared plates. So we didn't raise the complaints - also, what's the point as we'd already paid anyway and I doubt the waiting staff were going to care. We just wanted to leave as soon as possible. Atmosphere and decorations are nice. But, no soap in toilets and it was freezing cold in the dining area so I put my coat back on. They charged £18 for 2 pints of Dutch/Belgian beer served in greasy glasses with no foamy head to be found anywhere. They also served my Leffe in a regular pint glass when it should be served in a Leffe glass. As a Dutch person who travelled into London to visit this place, I won't be recommending it to anyone. For both service and quality of food to be so lacking is inexcusable for any food establishment - especially if they also charge premium prices.

Not really a Dutch pub if you can't even turn on the sound of Ajax - Feyenoord (biggest game of the year) in the upstairs area. Just sound like they don't have their stuff together so may be better to find another place for big games.

Great place to watch Dutch football games with some nice “bitterballen” and Dutch beers!

We booked out the upstairs for a private event - the staff were super helpful, got us sorted with screens and were friendly throughout. Nothing major to improve on. If the food was served up in smaller portions it might be easier to carry and move around the room but I appreciate that can create a lot more work for the team. If they ever considered adding pizza to the menu, I think it would be really popular for large bookings/events. I would visit again with friends or to book an event.

Any place the has La Chouffe on tap is going to be alright. Belgians make the best beers and De Hems has many of the good ones available.

Gran ambiente, fantástica selección de cervezas y personal genial y acogedor. Recomendaría reservar si quieres comida, ya que puede estar bastante ocupado.

Fantastic selection for Belgian beers - 15+ on tap, probably 100+ bottles. Not 5* as prices got higher recently and service is just ok. Still a favorite in london for Belgian beers! Not too busy even on a weekend.

Didn't have time for food, but what a lovely bar to have a couple of drinks in!! Definitely coming back- made me feel like I was in Belgium again!! Wonderful service on the first floor bar

Great pub, friendly staff was served by a man cristen, top lad! would definitely come here again during a sports event, great vibes 👍👍😍

Great selection of beers and awesome festive specials! Highly recommend the sharing platter. Casual #TogetherWeGrow

Great range of beers and some great Dutch food - the kitchen isn’t open super late though and drinks are a little pricey! I’d still choose it over some of the less interesting pubs nearby

This place is an iconic Belgium bar with friendly staff and great craft beer. They have rotating seasonal selection and were more than accommodating to my wife and I on our honeymoon. I highly recommend stopping in for pregame drinks or to catch local sports.

excellent ❤️ definitely goin to visit again

First time ever visit weird a Dutch flagged establishment serving no Dutch drinks

Nos topamos con este hermoso bar belga dando un paseo por Londres. Gran selección de cerveza belga en oferta, así que si la cerveza belga es lo tuyo, sin duda visitar este lugar. Ambiente encantador también.

Great selection of beers. Busy, vibey central London pub. Maybe the best pub in Chinatown.

Good pub with decent Belgium/dutch beer selection.

Visited on a hectic Saturday evening in the run up to Xmas and had a great time. There were 8 of us so we booked a table which was a good decision. The beer list was great and featured some terrific festive 'specials'. Food-wise, the sharing platter is highly recommended.

Nishaan is excellent, he remembered us from last time. Love this pub! Great selection of beers

Great beer selection, great staff, great food. A nice place to be on christmas day, made it special

We dropped in to this pub, as soon as we got to the bar we was served by Wayne very polite the pub was busy and the atmosphere was amazing his knowledge of the beers in bottles and on tap he had some very good customer service was awsome to be there will definitely drop in there again

Great place, good selection of unique beers

By far the best Dutch bar in Westminster!

Great atmosphere, beer and food. Slick and well run given it was so manically busy. Loved it.

Wonderful place with some of my favourite Belgian beers. Nishan is a great host and introduces us to all sorts of beers!

Lovely pub with a great selection of British and continental beers. The staff are always very friendly.

The stoofvlees only had 1 tiny piece of onion that was so hard it was not edible and it only had 3 tiny slices of beef…. This place does not feel Dutch at all! To make things worse the table had mould!!

The bar promised so much but the service and quality was poor to say the least. We asked for food but couldn't have anything with bread as it hadn't defrosted yet, at 5pm in the evening!!! We had to resort to nachos, which were close to being edible. Go to Lowlanders if yiu want quality Belgium beers, the difference in service and quality was night and day.

Great selection of different beers..

Great pub, chilled atmosphere and top place to watch sport!

Awesome pub just a few feet off Gerard. Cool vibe, solid pub food and great selection of international beer. Akash took excellent care of me - very friendly atmosphere. Will definitely be back!

Friendly staff and a great atmosphere! Highly recommend

Great selection of beer good atmosphere

One of the best pubs about, great beer selection.

Booked for 12 of us for a Wednesday at 7.30. BRILLIANT atmosphere. The dri k selection. Was amazing. Great selection of pub grub with a Belgian slant. So reasonable for London. The staff were wonderful as always.

Great pub. Huge beer selection. Bitterballen are a must try Dutch snack.

Does what it says on the tin, ie a bar focusing on Dutch/Belgian beers and food

One of the best bars around! In London it's very hard to get a good selection of beers and this is the place to PLAY... PLUS bitterballen! Omg! Awesome place!

Great pub in west end. Amazing beers

Dutch beer on tap, lots of Belgian beer and always fun.

Excellent selection of Belgian beer

Nish and Chris really made our visit!! Great selection of beers and really relaxed atmosphere

Had a private party . Enjoyed having the private space . Food was good. Staff friendly . Only fault was no loo roll in the toilets . Otherwise had a pleasant evening

We hired the upstairs bar for a private party. The De Hems team made everything easy from the point of booking, setting up and ensuring all ran smoothly on the evening. It's a great space and the food, drinks and staff all excellent. Highly recommend if you're looking for a venue in the west end.

No Dutch atmosphere at all and poor service. They also have no knowledge of the beers they have in their range and Dutch music is not welcome here

My phone was stolen from the table :-( nice pub ww2 Dutch pilots and resistance HQ :-)

Great pub just outside of Chinatown in Theatre District of London. Highly recommended!

Very nice pub with loads of history and a fantastic choice of beers

Went for a private party and the food was lovely. Service was good, it was a great venue!

Great range of drinks and food; bar staff were really good. My only complaint is the music was so loud we struggled to talk at our table - but, I am in my 50s, so understand some might not agree!

Been coming here for 30 years. By far the best Dutch bar in town! Staff are helpful and food is good

I can't remember too much because I was hammered. I didn't eat any of the food so the food score is for the beer. I love Belgian beer and this place has many. I think the atmosphere was pretty cool, but as I already mentioned, I was hammered

Solid Soho standby, just far enough from the Madding Crowd to be able to get to the bar

Great pub . Great beers. Great atmosphere. Crap prices .. £9 a Früli . Shame about the dog strolling round as not everyone likes dogs ! Allergic .. 🤧 sneezing fit so left

Como holandés esperas algo que comer holandés... Me gustaría comer mi bocadillo favorito holandés: Kroketten. Lamentablemente, estos no fueron agradables... Nada de cerveza holandesa, como Heiniken, Grolsch, Amstel... Sí... Las cervezas belgas ya son suficientes... el servicio es menor que hace años y la "comodidad" holandesa + Gezelligheid es un bien como desaparecido... Siento mucho tener que decirlo, pero DE HEMS está fuera de mi lista cuando visito Londres de nuevo

Except for a couple of dutch snacks, there isn't much dutch about the place! But overall, it's still a nice bar! Groetjes uit nederland.

Good beer selection and a good vibe

First time here in years. Used to be a regular many moons ago. Oranjeboom is no longer served, but still the only Dutch pub in Soho

Brilliant traditional Dutch bar, with a great selection of beers.

Some great beers in this drinker.

It's OK. We went early and STILL got kicked off a table as it was booked. Not too pleased about that, pubs shouldn't really offer booked tables for drinking. It was a rather expensive place too, three drinks was £40. Insane prices
