Favorite Bar on Zaandam

[DCThunder]

I will be on Zaandam for the 28 day Amazon Adventure cruise.  Any recent Zaandam passengers have any recommendations for their favorite bar and bartenders to get to know?  My companion and I like to sit at the bar and chat with the bartenders for a before dinner drink or two so any suggestions as to the best one to frequent would be appreciated.  When I was on Oosterdam last year I hit up the Crows Nest bar mostly, but didn't sit at the bar since I had my foot in a boot and a chair was more comfortable. The Crows Nest would be my bar of choice on Zaandam unless anyone has a better suggestion.

I really enjoyed the Ocean Bar. Good music most nights. Not sure if Emerson is still there, but he was a great bartender.

Whatever one has cold champagne available.

 

Crow's Nest or Ocean Bar probably meet your criteria.

That's the kind of bartender I like.  Too bad he's not on Zaandam!

The Ocean Bar was always THE bar to go to for pre-dinner drinks on all the S- and R-class ships. 
That's where I would still head to.
