Cafe 't Mandje (meaning "little basket") was opened in 1927 by the legendary Bet van Beeren. Eldest daughter of a family of 14, born in 1902 in De Jordaan, lesbian Bet was a pioneer in human rights and she openly welcomed gays, lesbians etc. in times when homosexuality was illegal, to mingle with the sailors, neighbors, artists and intellectuals who also frequented the little bar. Inside still remains the enormous collection of souvenirs: cut-off men's ties, underwear and lots and lots of photo's.Fun and respect since 1927. We don't know any better.

Café ZILT is a small and intimate bar on the Zeedijk, in the heart of Amsterdam. We serve over 80 beers; most are local brews of which 12 are on tap. Our shelves boast more than 300 whisky's from all around the globe and our 'top shelf' includes some great jenever, rum, gin and other wonderfully crafted spirits and liqueurs. We think we play the best music in town and that means 'no greasy kids stuff'. Café ZILT regularly organizes nosing and tasting sessions, a monthly pop music quiz and hosts a Jazz music session on the second Sunday of every month and a monthly classical music evening.
