Ben’s Coffeeshop

The first coffee shop you ever visit is most memorable and we chose one nearest our hotel - Coffee Shop Ben. Not a wonderful name for a place but we ducked inside. The serving counter sits directly to the left and we make a selection from the menu. The product inside is very highly [...]

Avenue Hotel Bar

Most hotels would probably be embarrissed to offer that kind of Bar that Avenue Hotel offers its residence.

The Old Church Coffeeshop

A bold church stands proud at the center of the Red Light district and it seems crazy how such a religious building can stand next to brothel windows, in the spirit of this adult playground. Walking around the church one spots the only coffeeshop in this little strip called the Old Church. [...]
