De Ysbreeker
De Ysbreeker is a classic! With its cozy terrace on the Amstel river you are guaranteed a wonderful afternoon in the sun. The terrace is located on the water, and on very hot days the surrounding trees provide a pleasant shade. At De Ysbreeker you can do some people-watching, drink wine, and eat well.
A rich history
De Ysbreker has been around since 1702. Yes, you read that right. That year is proudly displayed on the high windows at the front. The Café-Restaurant is named after the icebreaker that lay in front of it from 1702 to 1860. In winter it made its way through the ice from the Amstel to De Vecht and provided fresh water. At that time, De Ysbreeker was an inn and pub.
The versatile history of the Ysbreeker has inspired a stubborn approach. De Ysbreeker of today cannot be pigeonholed. It is simultaneously a coffee and tea house, lunchroom, pub, lounge area, games cafe, and restaurant.
