If you overindulge the next time you're in Amsterdam, you might want to consider a morning-after stop at the city's new Hangover Bar.

Open only during the day from Friday to Sunday, the first-of-its-kind establishment is designed to supply everything you need to recover from a boozy evening, including vitamin-rich smoothies, an oxygen bar, and beds planted in front of TVs loaded with bingeworthy shows.

The one cure you won't find inside: hair of the dog. Alcohol is not sold on the premises—though there are "hangover inspectors" who administer Breathalyzer tests at the entrance to make sure that you still have alcohol in your system.

We're pretty sure that makes the place the only bar in the world where you can get thrown out for being underserved.
