Party Earth Review: Café Proust is an upscale bar and café that caters to the Jordaan’s artsy yet cosmopolitan population of well-heeled young professionals. A fresh take on the typical Dutch brown bar, the sleek and spare décor features a sparkling revolver-shaped chandelier amusingly aimed at a bullet hole sketched on the front windows – a nod, no doubt, to the French writer and philosopher with a passion for romance and crime novels for whom the bar is named. While the enchanting mirrored and candlelit interior is perfect for a tranquil evening of cocktails and conversation, the outdoor terrace, surrounded by lush foliage, provides a peaceful place for wining and dining. Ensconced in the heart of a “real” neighborhood and attracting a local clientele, Café Proust’s authentic, intimate feel and swanky vibe set it apart from other cafés and make it a must-see spot in this romantic Amsterdam quarter.
