Restaurants: Disabled visitors will be able to access most ground floor restaurants, though toilets are often up steep stairs. Anyone got any info on Amsterdam restaurants with good access etc. for the disabled? Meanwhile,
"VVV" at Central Station The ONLY cafe with with a disabled -friendly Toilet/Restroom/"Toiletten" or "Vay-Say ("WC")" is "t`Nieuwe Cafe" in Dam Square. But please see Rich`s info on next pages for more options.

Coffeeshops As the Trams are not generally disabled friendly, I have confined my research to the centre and have found 3 Coffeeshops within easy distance from the Dam monument which I think, as an ABLE BODIED PERSON, (i.e. what do I know?) that wheelchair users and others can enter with minimum difficulty - I hope this is the case - please let me know if it is not. The Dampkring has also got some very good write-ups from contributors Rich & Stuart (see next pages). and Steve, a Wheelchair user from Alabama, USA writes: "I just returned from a very enjoyable 7-day visit. Here's another accessible coffee shop you may wish to add to your site sometime... Freeworld Coffee shop (and internet cafe) it's at Nieuwendijk 30 The entrance is flat - no steps at all. there's an upper level in back but it has several steps. the front room (where you enter) has two computers. more computers in the rear upper level. Atmosphere? Nothing special. The music? not my type, really - what some call "industry" music. But friendly people, and there's a Bar. the hash and pot menu is displayed right there on the bar. But, again... no steps. That's rare for coffee shops, as you know, and magic words for a wheeler." Yeah, I know this place, its on the way to "Barneys" (see Coffeeshops" pages), I`ve used the internet facilities there, it`s reasonably priced and and is as Steve says it is.
