Café 't Smalle Drinking in the Jordaan in Amsterdam has a special history. On the site of the current café Pieter Hoppe started a liqueur and gin distillery in 1780. Hoppe's distillery became more and more familiar and years later it was established for capacity and logistical reasons in Schiedam. Hoppe Jenever became one of the most famous Dutch gins and is popular far beyond our borders. In 1978 the current café was opened. Many authentic details have been preserved, such as the spiral staircase and the stained glass. The unique glass-in-lead medallions were installed around 1900 in the attractive and authentic building.

Nice staff, and a nice menu with a varied menu for both food and drinks. The Pacific Special that I ate, chicken satay, was very tasty. It is also very atmospheric both on the terrace and inside. In the winter there is a large fireplace, and you can dance until late in the evening and night. Recommended!

This is such a great place. Here you can play Arcade, pinball machines and even board games. Of course playing games is not the only thing you can do here. The nicest and tastiest dishes also come from the kitchen. The menu is a kind of mix of Japanese / Asian / European fusion, with lots of snacks in addition to the starters and main courses. Also when it comes to drinking, you don't have to get bored here. From the most fragrant cocktails to the most colorful milkshakes. They still have a branch in the center, at the "Red Light District" and are even working on a 3rd branch just outside the center. You must have visited TonTon once, whether you are a local or a tourist !!!
