What People Are Saying About Amsterdam Cafe
The Owner
Amsterdam Cafe
Owner
When you come to Amsterdam, you have arrived. We want to welcome everyone to our open door cafe. In the diverse neighborhood of the 'Loin', we offer a generous amount of worldwide beers, which is our niche, plus wine, champagne and soon to complement the menu with fried goods, sausages and sangria. There is an open smoking patio, flat screen TV, hookahs, back lounge and dining area and best of all, we host special events including art shows and DJ Parties.

First thing you should know: This is not THAT kind of Amsterdam cafe. It is, however, very much like a European cafe-bar, with its open-to-the-street smoking patio, art gallery/dancefloor in the back and nonchalant, low-key ambiance all around. The Euro-ness continues with a list of more than 100 craft, microbrew and obscure/amazing European beers, mostly by the bottle (think Dogfish Head, Maudite, Urthel and other cult favorites), which are never cheap but are less expensive here than at other specialty beer bars. There's an afterthought menu of wine and champagne, no coffee--this isn't that…

Great music and beer selection

Amsterdam Cafe is a cool gem I found last week. The open window to the street allows for cool people watching and they played fun old school dance music-perfect for those of us who like to boogie to 70's and 80's hip hop. I heard they have techno and rave nights as well. Have to check those nights out. They have so many beers here I wasn't sure where to begin but the bar gets packed and the bartenders are awesome at recommending a beer to your liking. I'll definitely go again, because the DJ was great.
- Pros: Fun Dancing, Great Atmosphere, Laid Back Vibe
- Cons: Parking
