The best dive bars in Amsterdam, according to the experts: Difford's Guide and The Infatuation have both weighed in, and their honors are what rank this list. Cafe Hoppe comes out on top.
-
Rank 1. Cafe Hoppe
Dive Bar
The bar at No.18 is a bruine café, which means brown walls, brown ceiling, and centuries of cigarette smoke baked into the woodwork, all of it legally protected so nobody can touch it. Locals call it "standing Hoppe" because that's what you do. An old-school Amsterdam pub that has been around forever, it's the kind of place that makes a gin and tonic feel like a historical document.
