A large, modern, comfortable
gay bar that's great for reading a
newspaper in the day or meeting
up for drinks pre-clubbing.
Unusual feature: the circular back
bar revolves when it gets busy.

Lellebel
Amsterdam's infamous -
and only - dragshow bar, the
complete antithesis of the
testosterone-fuelled Rembrandt-
plein nearby. At first glance it's
unremarkable, but when Shirley
Bassey is turned up on the
soundsystem, the bar staff
perform quite some routine.

De Duivel
Cypress Hill and The Roots
have joined the boisterous baggy

but legendary hip hop bar. These
days, the hip hop is melted down
with anything from funk to disco.

The “English pub
