Discover Café De Dokter, a tiny historic bar behind heavy doors in central Amsterdam. Settle at the old bar with a draft beer or cocktail and soak in the quirky vintage details.
Full description
Café De Dokter is a small, storied bar in Amsterdam-Centrum, entered through heavy doors that give way to an atmosphere visitors describe as time standing still. Reviewers highlight the historic character, with a parachute and camera hanging from the ceiling and a set of sarcastic bar rules, and the bar itself is said to be around 250 years old.
It serves beers on draft plus cocktails, and its tiny size means a cozy, intimate feel. It is closed on Mondays and opens in the late afternoon.

The charm and the historic vibe of this tiny gem are unmatched in the city. Between the parachute with a camera hanging from the ceiling and the sarcastic bar rules, the atmosphere is truly one-of-a-kind. Service is impeccable and old-school. A genuine spot where every sip comes with a story to tell.
