Everyone in Tilburg knows this 100-year-old bar whose founder, Bet Kolen, was born in 1896. Although it was unusual for a woman to start a pub at that time, everybody used to visit Bet’s and she offered many drinkers a home away from home. In 2011 the pub still has the same name and the same values: pay attention to the guests and make sure everybody has a good time. The building consists of three parts. Up front there’s a bar, next a large room which functions as a party centre followed by a busy hall in which men play darts and billiards on one of 18 dartboards and 16 pool tables.
