"Café Alto is a small brown-café style place hidden away in the touristy restaurant area just off Leidseplein. Each night, a mix of regulars and tourists come here to ease back with a whiskey or well-mixed cocktail, and listen to the rhythms provided by top jazz musicians.
Cafe Alto Amsterdam Jazz ClubSince many years back, this intimate, dark and dusty little venue has attracted jazz enthusiasts from all over the world to Amsterdam. Many of the big names in jazz have entered the small stage over the years, and you can be sure to be regaled talented local groups and settings any day of the week.
Jazz and free-jazz dominates the musical agenda although blues bands have gigs from time to time. Much appreciated Dutch saxophonist Hans Dulfer performs here every Wednesday, sometimes accompanied by his equally talented daughter, Candy Dulfer.
Café Alto remains the only walk-in bar to offer live jazz every night of the week in Amsterdam and is definitely an unavoidable jazz venue. Be sure to get there early, and you might have a chance to score a table close to the stage.
Doors open at 9 pm all nights of the week. Music starts at 10 pm and plays the whole night through, to 3 am on weekdays and 4 am on weekends. When finding your way there, look for a large saxophone high upon the façade. Don’t miss out on this little piece of heaven!" - https://www.amsterdam.info/music/cafe-alto/
"Hidden amongst the tourist restaurants and bars, Café- Alto can be spotted by the huge saxophone which hangs above its entrance (on a road just off just off Leidseplein).
Duck into this cool and cosy bar. The friendly bar staff will make you feel more than welcome and you slip back to 1920s. Look up to the ceiling and all around, as you begin to see this intimate jazz bar hung with photos of iconic musicians. Even if you claim that Jazz isn’t your cup of tea, this bar will heavily change your perspective on it, once you enter you’ll never want to leave!
Whilst Jazz dominates the musical agenda although blues bands play from time to time. If you’re fitting a visit into a busy schedule, try and make a Wednesday. This is because the locals favourite jazz quintet plays beats which will make you want to move your feet!" - https://www.divento.com/en/home/10667-cafe-alto-amsterdam-all-year.html
