DE DOFFER
Welcome to Café de Doffer, an iconic café in the heart of Amsterdam. For decades, De Doffer has been a place where locals, artists, students, and bon vivants gather for a good drink, delicious food, and a generous dose of ‘gezelligheid’. We don’t take reservations, so just drop by and grab a seat.
History
Since the 1960s, De Doffer has been known as a meeting point in the Jordaan and beyond. From literary evenings and artistic drinks to late-night pub stories—the walls of De Doffer have seen it all. With its unique mix of history and vibrant atmosphere, our café has become a true Amsterdam institution.
Doffer x Smelt
This autumn, we’re joining forces with our neighbors: cheese fondue restaurant Smelt. Together, we’re bringing the best of both worlds: the lively, laid-back vibe of De Doffer and the fine kitchen of Smelt. Expect both modern and classic bar bites, quality wines, and craft beers on tap. For a steaming pot of fondue, of course, you’ll need to visit our neighbors.
No reservations
At Café de Doffer, we like to keep things simple: if you walk in, you’re welcome. We don’t take reservations, which keeps the door open for spontaneity. So just come by, find yourself a spot, and let yourself be surprised by the atmosphere—and by what lands on the table.
Would you like to come for drinks with a larger group? We can accommodate groups of up to 20 people. Please contact us by email at reserveringen@cafededoffer.nl.
