Food Scene

Great Coffee And a great place for a breakfast with scrambled eggs or american pankakes. It opens at 8:30 during weekdays Its lost a little of its charm after the new owners, but still nice

A small restaurant with reliable meals. The tuna has refined taste, the hamburger is wonderfully vulgar, a fried egg on top. must try sticky toffee pie for dessert (share it...its HEAVY!)

Typical dutch place with a terrace.. The service is very friendly but very slow. Sometimes i end up just enjoying the table and atmosphere and going back to work after 20 minutes.... no charge :)

Entertainment & Activities

I recommend strolling the whole 'negen straatjes' (Berenstraat, Wolvenstraat, Runstraat, Hudenstraat, Reestraat, Hartenstraat, and the three steegjes these extend into)
