About

Café Sientje is a cozy and well-loved gay café situated in the heart of Amsterdam's Reguliersdwarsstraat, the city's most famous gay street. This intimate spot has been a fixture of the Amsterdam LGBTQ+ scene for years, known for its friendly atmosphere and relaxed vibe.

Sientje offers a classic "brown café" atmosphere with a warm and inviting feel. It's a relatively small space, which makes it perfect for striking up conversations with fellow patrons. The crowd is a mix of locals, expats, and tourists, creating a diverse and welcoming environment. You'll find a mix of ages here, all enjoying a drink and good company in a relaxed setting. It's the kind of place where you can easily spend an afternoon or evening chatting and people-watching.

The café's long-standing presence on Reguliersdwarsstraat speaks to its popularity within the gay community. It's a safe and comfortable space where everyone is welcome, and the staff are known for being friendly and attentive. While not exclusively a "party" venue, it's a great place to start your night or enjoy a more laid-back evening out.

Sientje is a great spot for enjoying a beer or a simple cocktail. They also offer a selection of snacks to accompany your drinks. While they don't have a full food menu, it’s the perfect place to grab some bitterballen or cheese cubes to share with friends. The outdoor seating area is especially popular during the warmer months, providing a prime location for soaking up the atmosphere of the lively Reguliersdwarsstraat.

If you're planning a visit, consider stopping by during the early evening to secure a spot, especially on weekends. It can get quite busy, but that's part of its charm!
