Drinks & Nightlife
At this small square you will find a lot of Amsterdam people heading out to have their ''borrel'' together. For example at Mash (bar) they have amazing cocktails and snacks. Try the snack platter and enjoy a dark 'n stormy here. It is also just around the corner of the famous Albert Cuyp-market (which closes around 5 or 6 pm).
