At this authentic tasting room and cosy bar, you can indulge in liqueurs, genevers and wines. Well known on the Zeedijk: Café De Roode Laars. Where there used to be a shoemaker with a red boot as a sign outside of the shop, things have changed after the turbulent times on the Zeedijk. The shoemaker's building became a café called Café the Roode Laars, then the name was changed into the Roode Baron.
Former glory restored
Ger van der Valk transformed the bar into an atmospheric, authentic tasting room and gave the tasting room its old name back. His son Jeroen has taken over the tasting room and is now the sympathetic host of this piece of Amsterdam history a favourite of many locals.
