About

A grand cafe on the Amstel with a two story terrace directly over the water, the kind of spot locals treat as a living room as much as a restaurant, coffee in the morning and bitterballen with mustard alongside a beer by evening. The reading table upstairs, stacked with newspapers and magazines, is a holdover from the cafe's original concept and still gets used. Terrace seats go first on a sunny afternoon, arrive early or expect a short wait.
