Café Tante Roosje

In the middle of the bustling Rembrandtplein you find Café Tante Roosje, a cosy Amsterdam café where the atmosphere of the old brown pub is combined with a modern look. From an extensive breakfast and lunch to drinks or an evening full of live music: at every moment of the day there is life in the place. Inside, wooden accents, chandeliers and a warm decor create a nostalgic feeling, while on the terrace people fully enjoy the lively square. There are regularly live pianists, Amsterdam singers and DJs, which is why Café Tante Roosje transforms into a festive meeting place especially in the evening. It is a café where both Amsterdammers and visitors come together for conviviality, music and a typically Amsterdam atmosphere.
Where does the name come from?
The name Tante Roosje (‘Aunt Roosje’) was chosen to evoke the warm, familiar feeling of an old-fashioned Amsterdam café. Like the well-known Amsterdam nicknames with ‘Tante’, the name radiates conviviality, hospitality and a touch of nostalgia. Although the name does not refer to a historical person, it fits the concept of a modern brown café with a nod to the Amsterdam of the past perfectly.
Fun fact
Did you know that Café Tante Roosje describes itself as a ‘Brown Café 2.0’? During the day you can have a quiet breakfast or lunch, but later in the day the café regularly transforms into a party venue with live piano, Amsterdam sing-alongs and DJs. A place where the conviviality of old Amsterdam and the nightlife of the Rembrandtplein come together.
