De Blauwe Hollander

Dutch restaurant with an extensive menu of hearty home-cooked dishes like herrings, pea soup and hutspot. Unlike most restaurants in this area, this one gets local diners too, and if it gets crowded enough you may have to share tables. Pancakes are served only until 17:00.

Whisky Cafe L&B
If you like whisky, this small, laid-back and friendly cafe is the ideal place to visit. Many unusual whiskies from independent bottlers and closed distilleries are available. The menu stretches along one wall and is about 2 meters in height, the cafe having had 1001 whiskies available since it opened. Just be warned the stairs to the toilets are pretty steep!
