Café the Minds

Medieval Centre & Red Light District


Don't let the word 'cafe' in the name fool you – this is a hard-core (but very friendly) punk bar (Amsterdam's last remaining one) where the beer's cheap, the music's loud and the party's rockin'. It's smack in the middle of a little strip of the Spui that's home to a few squats and plenty of graffiti.

You can shoot pool or play pinball.
