Cafe ‘t Gasthuys

Cafe Gasthuys in Amsterdam ‘t Gasthuys — one of Amsterdam’s typical ‘brown cafés’ — has a reputation for serving good food at decent prices. This is certainly one of our favorite hangouts, especially during the summer when its canal-side terrace is open for business.

We’ll place the café in its historical context, so you’ll know why, for instance, the alley next to it is called ‘prayer without end.’
