Lonely Planet review for In ‘t Aepjen
Candles burn even during the day at this bar based in a 15th-century canal house, which is one of two remaining wooden buildings in the city. The name allegedly comes from the bar’s role in the 16th and 17th centuries as a crash pad for sailors from the Far East, who often carried aapjes (monkeys) with them.
