About
De Twee Zwaantjes is a traditional "brown cafe" located on the picturesque Prinsengracht canal in the Jordaan neighborhood of Amsterdam. This cozy spot has been a neighborhood institution since 1921, offering a taste of authentic Amsterdam hospitality.
The atmosphere is relaxed and unpretentious, with a classic Dutch pub feel. Think warm lighting, wooden furnishings, and a friendly buzz of conversation. It's the kind of place where locals gather for a beer and a chat, and visitors are welcomed with open arms. The vibe is casual and comfortable, making it a perfect spot for an afternoon drink or an evening catch-up.
While not exclusively a gay bar, De Twee Zwaantjes exudes a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere that makes it popular with LGBTQ+ folks. Its laid-back and unpretentious vibe means everyone feels comfortable being themselves. The Jordaan neighborhood itself is known for its open-minded spirit, and De Twee Zwaantjes embodies that perfectly.
While it doesn't have specific LGBTQ+ nights, De Twee Zwaantjes is known for its friendly service and well-poured drinks. It’s a great spot to soak in the local culture and enjoy a taste of old Amsterdam. Keep an eye on their Facebook page for occasional events and updates.
For the best experience, try visiting during the late afternoon or early evening. It can get busy, especially on weekends, but that just adds to the convivial atmosphere. Just walk in, grab a seat, and enjoy the gezelligheid!
