Great summer, trendy terraces to go
It’s finally spring, and we’re moving on to summer, lot’s of sunny days ahead. It’s gonna be a great summer.
Where can we better be than on a trendy terrace enjoying a cocktail or drinking a nice cold white beer and having some tasty snacks? I like to share my favorite terraces with you. As you can see my favorite places are mainly at the waterside. Join and drink a nice cold Dutch Blond Beer with me?
Theehuis (teahouse) Rhijnauwen, Utrecht
A little bit old-fashioned, but a tremendous cool spot beside the river “Kromme Rijn”. When you visit Theehuis Rhijnauwen make sure you eat the specialty of the house: Rhijnauwen wrap. Definitely my favorite.
Address: Rhijnauwenselaan 16, Bunnik

Volkshotel / Canvas, Amsterdam

Klein Berlin, Utrecht
A creative and cultural hot spot with a lovely terrace on the waterside. Located in an old industrial area at the river Vaartse Rijn. Small Berlin is a cool place to listen to music, watch the theater, and dance to the music of trendy DJs. Innovation and talent predominate here. Have a German beer, a nice glass of wine, or an appetizer. On the weekends you can dance to live music.
Address: Briljantlaan 5A, Utrecht

Waterkant, Amsterdam
Great place to relax in the sun beside the water, meet new people and eat a Surinam Roti or a tasty peanut soup.

Stadsvilla Sonsbeek, Arnhem
You find Stadsvilla Sonsbeek on top of the Hartjesberg ( Hearts mountain). The view makes it worthwhile to visit this terrace. On the weekends there are often outdoor concerts. In the park, you’ll find more terraces. What I like best is to take a blanket and just sit in the grass enjoying the sun, watching the people and getting into the happening.

Hanneke’s boom, Amsterdam
Lovely terrace, great view, nice food, and drinks. Lots of events are organized here.
A great place to let the day linger away. I just love Hanneke’s boom.

De oude Waag, Hoorn
Popular terrace on the big square in the center of Hoorn.
Address: Roode Steen 8, Hoorn
De Oude Waegh Hoorn
Noorderlicht, Amsterdam
My one and only nr 1 top terrace. Located in one of the nicest spots of Amsterdam with a beautiful view over the IJ. If you visit Amsterdam, don’t miss this, it’s an absolute must, so make sure to put it on your bucket list. Not only the outside is special but the design inside is more than creative. Ask the cook for the day’s specialties.
Address: NDSM, Plein 102, Amsterdam
