Great spot to grab a beer and enjoy the beautiful canals of Amsterdam. A cafe that also has a boat out front with seating. On a sunny day this is one of the best spots in the Jordaan. Food is best for snacking.

Great authentic dutch pub with quality local ingredients and dynamic menu. You cannot make reservations, but you can enjoy a drink at the bar while you wait or show up around 7 to snag a table. I like the seating at the front of the house by the windows best.
