Very old Amsterdam pub, oozing atmosphere of days gone by. It’s a small pub, a few tables inside and weather permitting a terrace on one of my favorite canals.

Good food and fun. Not a traditional restaurant more like an arcade, with lots of games. Located in the Westerpark, a 20min walk from the loft. The park is great, especially with nice weather and there are plenty places to enjoy a refreshment.

Why not stop off for lunch at a unique place. Very colorful and different. Love the fact that it’s hidden away in a little alley called Gebed zonder end (prayer without end).
This is in a different part of town, so if you find yourself nearby the Rokin or Oudezijds Voorburgwal its a nice option for a refreshment.
