History
Number 129 Regulierdwarsstraat has been a bar for decades. In the seventies it was for example a somewhat more distinguished cafe called La Reserve. Reality Bar was opened here on January 1, 1996 by a man from Surinam, and his place attracted many black gay men from gay dancing Havana at the other end of Reguliersdwarsstraat. Having a place for their own was a breakthrough in the Surinam and Latin-American community.
