Café Brecht

Brecht is een Berlijns woonkamercafe. Dat betekent schemerlampen, oude fauteuils en theekopjes van oma. Geen hip gedoe maar tijdloze romantiek. De gehele dag serveren wij piadina's, taart en lekkere hapjes.

Brecht is a tiny but cozy cafe with a Berlin-feel, where they serve an excellent selection of German beers . Tip: get here early, because it can get quite crowded . Great for dates!

Ashley Howe

Small bar with a great atmosphere. Wine was around 3.50 a glass and they labelled all of their bar snacks in the menu with allergen information so you know exactly what you're getting

My living room in De Pijp. Be sure to order a large Weihenstephaner or a negroni and beat your date with Scrabble !

Ariana Voyer

Skip the Kiwi beer (awful) and go for the Federweisser if available! Lots of board games , vintage lounge seating, and drink menu options to choose from. Cool spot!

Vangelis Koukidis

A piece of Germany in Amsterdam! Lady owner comes from Munich and she brought a piece of Berlin feeling with her when she made this place. Amazing beers , great German snacks , and cozy atmosphere . Win!

Antoine Rogez

Great and authentic atmosphere + nice tea offering. Can even borrow some good old board games for a short return to childhood :). Not so much space though so gets full quite fast.

Yuri Hegge

This is so lovely.. Berlin interior anno 1950.. Nice service, living room feel. I enjoyed a German and sour beer ..

Vera

Love the interior! Comfortable seats , great choice of drinks.

Nice drinking spot for dates, friends & after work! Gets crowded , so try to get in early! 7.5/10

Pinar S.

Glühwein was good. Such a cozy and Berlin vibe in the heart of Amsterdam. A good pitstop just for a drink before museum rush. Limited choice for snack

I love German pretzels ! Have one here with Gouda and Ham . Delish. Iced tea is a little too sweet.

Very crowded on weekends so get there early. A relaxed bar where to go and hang out with friends or with a good book

Daytime drinking gets quirky in this retro front room bar . There are mismatched tables and chairs, lots of lamps and comfy couches . http://barchick.com/find-a-bar/amsterdam/caf-brecht

Try the smokey sausage beer , you'll not like it but for once you drank something else than Heineken

Antonis A

Cozy place with vintage furniture , nice music and warm people for morning coffee

Just about the nearest I've ever gotten to pretending I'm in the Amsterdam of 100 years ago. Try the Tannenzäpfle Pils if you like Heineken but want to change it up.

Lyndsey Henderson

Cosy, nice beer , good place to sit at the bar if you are by yourself.

Mika

Berlin style bar , very packed with vintage chairs.

Cozy bar , busy but not too loud that you can't have a conversation. Really chilled with lots of drinks.

Chilled laid back bar to hangout. It's a bit tight inside, but that's the charm of it.

This bar is quite alive, cozy and nice inside. Would not define it a cocktail bar , though. More into beer and spirits.

One of the best cafes in town . Just visit it and you'll understand why.

Bea H

It can be really crowded , but the atmosphere is nice. During the week it's more relaxed. Food is not bad either!
