Hot Spots

Join us on a journey of discovery

Almost everybody has heard of the Broodje Mario stall on the banks of the Oudegracht canal. You must eat here! Then order a special beer at Beer Brewery Maximus, a relatively new brewery/tasting room that offers wonderful beers and regional products with an emphasis on honest and traditional production methods. Next, you can visit the Dom Cathedral's unique monastery garden and end your excursion with a cup of coffee or a drink in the DomCafé. Other recommendations that we would like to mention are: WT Urban Bar & Kitchen with stunning views out over the city, wine bar Lefebvre on the Neude, De Kikker Theatre for fine performances, DOMunder for an amazing 2000 years of cathedral square history and the beautifully decorated locations of Stan & Co or Talud9.
