Only a five-minute walk from the Anne Frank House is a place that claims to be Amsterdam's oldest continuously running café. It's said that the place came into existence in 1624 as a public bar for the Westerkerk's construction workers who recieved their salaries here and probably left most of it on the premises too. The selection of beer is nothing special in comparison to the curiousities of the place itself like the old toilet pull chain on the wall outside the bathroom.
