Long before King’s Day became a tradition, royal celebrations already lit up the city 👑

In 1874, Die Port van Cleve marked the 25-year reign of King Willem III in a truly remarkable way. The Hulscher brothers built a large wooden structure in front of their beer house and illuminated it with no less than 7500 oil lamps🪔

For three evenings, the building glowed like never before. A striking tribute to the King and a moment that did not go unnoticed in Amsterdam, as the popularity of beer house Die Port van Cleve only grew.

Today, this extraordinary story lives on as one of the room themes at Die Port van Cleve, where history and celebration come together.

How will you celebrate this King’s day?🧡

Look a little closer… 👀

At first glance, you see a historic façade in the heart of Amsterdam. But as you take a better look, a special detail reveals itself.

In 2021, following our 150-year anniversary, Die Port van Cleve was awarded the prestigious title of Purveyor to the Dutch Royal Household, known in the Netherlands as “Hofleverancier”. A recognition reserved for companies with a long-standing history of excellence, quality and trust.

Today, the Royal crest is proudly displayed on our façade, a symbol of our heritage and the standards we uphold every single day.

How does a French bouillon fit into a place so deeply rooted in Dutch history? 🤔

At first glance, it might seem like an unexpected match. Die Port van Cleve has proudly celebrated its Dutch heritage for over 150 years, so why a French concept?

The answer lies in our history.

Back in the day, beer house Die Port van Cleve was a place where everyone was welcome, regardless of background or status. Guests gathered at long rows of tables, enjoying honest, comforting dishes at fair prices. Sounds familiar? It is exactly what defines a classic French bouillon.

Around 1900, the Hulscher brothers expanded this idea by opening a French restaurant on the first floor. While the ground floor buzzed with energy, conversation and the unmistakable voice of the Echo, upstairs offered a more refined and elegant dining experience, centered around the French cuisine. A striking contrast within one building.

Bouillon d’Amsterdam brings these two worlds back together.

A tribute to our past, reimagined in the present, and a story we are proud to continue every day.

This room theme is all about the opening of De Blauwe Parade, a beautiful brown cafe that allows you to step back in time to 1888🕰️🔙

From the wooden seating spaces (that once housed large wine barrels), to the impressive Delft blue tile fresco, telling a story even unknown to many Amsterdammers themselves. This bar is a unique gem in the heart of Amsterdam, tied with the history of Die Port van Cleve. This bar played such a fundamental role in our story, that it was obvious for us to feature it in one of our 8 fundamental heritage themes.

The walls are decorated with illustrations enhancing the stories that are waiting to be told and the beautiful carpets hinting at them, pave the way to the door of your room.
