According to the plaque on the wall, and the bartender, this ancient bar on the picturesque Prinsengracht has been around since 1665 and having a look around the place the only things that would make you think otherwise are the modern music, current events posters and the shiny coffee machine. Everything else in this classic brown bar, including its worn floorboards, low timber ceiling and faded stained glass windows, looks its age. Order a tasty local beer or maybe a La Chouffe by the gas fire on a typical wet and rainy Amsterdam day or grab a seat outside for a little sunshine and a smoke.
