    What are the best bars in Amsterdam?

    Fall into a hidden underworld of smoky cocktails and old curiosities at Hiding in Plain Sight. You'll feel transported back to 1925. Or if you're into something a bit more down to earth, Bar Bukowski near Oosterpark serves burgers, baguettes and flammkuchen, and has a terrace for sipping down-and-dirty cocktails. But for something that will freeze your mind, try Icebar Amsterdam where everything from the walls to the glasses is made out of ice. This has got to be the coolest place in town.

    Where are the best coffee shops in Amsterdam?

    Are you looking for coffee, or for a legal high? It's important to know the difference - a 'cafe' or 'coffee house' is where you drink coffee, tea, chomp on a croissant or a toastie. A 'coffee shop' is where you can purchase a small quantity of soft drugs for personal use, usually on the premises only. It's hard to say which ones are best - of either kind - but if it's actual coffee you are looking for, it's hard to go wrong in any cafe. Probably only supermarket coffee will disappoint you in Amsterdam.
