Klaproos

7.7 /10

Pizza, good wine and dancing on a half-built Buiksloterham corner.

A pizza joint bolted to a corner of Buiksloterham where the streets are still half construction site, Klaproos does one evening arc extremely well: antipasti and a blistered pizza early, low-intervention wine as the light goes, then DJs and dancing between the tables until deep into Friday and Saturday night. It started as a pop-up, never bothered to become anything more polished, and is better for it, expect paper napkins, pasta for the pizza-averse, and a crowd that walks or cycles in from the new-build lofts nearby. The kitchen closes around ten; the room does not, running to 3:00 on weekends. It's the rare place that functions as dinner, bar and club without being bad at any of them. Cheap, loud and fun: bring a group, order too many pizzas, stay well past your bedtime.

Split a couple of antipasti first, then go classic with the margherita before the dough runs out.
