Starters
Begin your culinary journey with our enticing starters, designed to awaken your palate. Try the Haring — fresh herring served with finely chopped onions and pickles, a true Dutch classic. For something warm and comforting, indulge in our Dutch Onion Soup, a hearty blend of caramelized onions, rich broth, and topped with melted cheese croutons.
Vegetarians will love the Beetroot Carpaccio, featuring thinly sliced beetroot, goat cheese, and a sprinkle of walnuts, drizzled with a balsamic reduction. Another standout is the Stroopwafels, a sweet treat of caramel syrup sandwiched between two thin waffles, offering a delightful start to your meal.

One of our signature dishes is the Stamppot, a traditional Dutch dish made of mashed potatoes combined with seasonal vegetables, served with a juicy smoked sausage. It’s a hearty meal that warms the soul and embodies the essence of Dutch comfort food.
For seafood lovers, the Dutch Seafood Platter is a must-try, featuring a variety of fresh fish and shellfish sourced from local waters, beautifully presented and served with a zesty lemon-dill sauce. If you’re in the mood for something unique, our Slow-Cooked Beef Carbonade offers tender beef stewed in dark beer, infused with aromatic herbs, and served with creamy mashed potatoes.
Vegetarians will enjoy our Mushroom Risotto, a creamy Arborio rice dish enriched with wild mushrooms and finished with truffle oil, showcasing the earthiness of Dutch ingredients.
