neighborhood guide
De Pijp was built at the end of the 19th century to provide housing for newcomers who moved to the capital in search of work. Freddy Heineken's father opened the Heineken brewery here in 1886. The first workers' houses, around Albert Cuypstraat, were built quickly and cheaply. Later, Berlage added houses in the Amsterdam School style towards the Diamantbuurt. It is said that the neighborhood owes its name to the long, straight streets, which are shaped like a pipe. The Albert Cuyp Market and Sarphatipark are decisive for the dynamism of De Pijp. Artists and writers such as Piet Mondriaan, Carel Willink, and Gerard Reve lived and worked here. The lively, mixed population brought many cafes and eateries to the neighborhood. Today, the neighborhood is known as the Latin Quarter of Amsterdam, with many dynamic restaurants such as Brut de Mere, Yamazato, Arles, the Peruvian NAZKA, and authentic bistros such as Petit Caron.
