6 X the Best Bingo Cafés in Amsterdam
Pacific Amsterdam
In Westerpark, you’ll find Pacific Amsterdam (complete with a lovely terrace!), where you can regularly attend a disco bingo night. Mikey Nice takes the DJ booth, and when you hear a number on your card, you can mark it off. It’s a fun night filled with great music and throwback tunes, in short. Bonus tip: you can also enjoy delicious food and drinks here.

Café Pollux
Fancy a night with a naughty twist? It might not be the first thing that comes to mind when thinking of bingo, but Café Pollux hosts an erotic bingo night every Tuesday, making it possibly the best bingo café in Amsterdam. They even call it ‘porno bingo‘ themselves. Perfect for a hen party or a night out with friends.
