Café Labath
1 Oude HoutleiHipster hotspot, bright interior, GREAT coffee!
Great place for groups. They have a lot of spaces they can "seperate" so you get a private feeling. Good food for a good price. It's a big restaurant but as it has many spaces you don't get the feeling of being in a big place. THey often still have last-minute spaces for groups but reservation is recomended.

A 5klm run along the water on soft bottom. But, there are cars driving at the side. Personally I prefer to take the 5km of the Watersportbaan and combine it with the Blaarmeersen (you will pass the entrance while running on the Watersportbaan). Good luck and enjoy!
