Cozy and casual local bar in the Amsterdam 'brown café' style (lots of wood, nicotine-stained walls), started in 1978 during a more leathery era and run by Englishman Paul (from Manchester) from 2006 until 2020, when Steven and Tomas took over.

Best gaybar in Amsterdam! Nice people, friendly staff, good music, pooltable, darkroom. Gay bar as it is supposed to be. Naked Tuesdays are amazing. DragBingo saturday also fun. Divebar

Good place to get started or chill out
Review below is correct. Quite often used by guys who are going to visit Club Church (in the same street) or have a drink after the party in Club Church (Tue, Wed)
