Nestled discreetly at Rapenburg 18, near Amsterdam's Red Light District, Hiding in Plain Sight (HPS) is a celebrated cocktail bar known for its inventive drinks and sophisticated ambiance. Despite its unassuming exterior, HPS offers a warm retreat for those seeking expertly crafted cocktails. The menu features both classic options, such as the sherry cobbler and perfect martini, and unique creations like "The Kiss," which combines Calvados, fennel, orange, lemon, and prosecco. The intimate setting, complete with comfortable upstairs seating, makes it an ideal spot for pre-dinner drinks or a cozy evening with friends. Given its limited space and popularity, especially on weekends, reservations are recommended to ensure a spot.
