The best French cuisine restaurants Netherlands

A former 15th century cloister, Het Hof van Alkmaar combines tradition and modernity. Refined cuisine in a very intimate setting. The seats near the elegant bar allow you to admire the work of the cooks. Softly upholstered benches and reproductions of Flemish paintings on the walls. A beautiful atmosphere and an ideal stop to enjoy the setting and the menu. On the menu are broodjes, mixed salads, but also pancakes and soups. A beautiful place to delight the taste buds and pupils and to fill up with energy! The evening menu is more elaborate.

Valuas is a versatile address in Venlo where you can take a break for a short or long time depending on your excursions. It is possible to have breakfast, lunch or dinner and even to stay overnight. The menu highlights the very Mediterranean flavors and the wine list. Local and organic products are favored and this is very good. The establishment is also a hotel and has 13 rooms (be careful!) with a view on the Meuse

Like many towns in the Netherlands, Hoorn has its own public weighing house, a magnificent historic complex that is a town classic. Like other towns, this building now houses a café-restaurant. At lunchtime, the menu features local classics such as croque-monsieur, soups and a variety of appetizing sandwiches. Several egg dishes are also available. The dinner menu is varied, offering pasta and meat dishes as well as several fish dishes.

Here is an address as we like them, both simple and charming. 't Witte Paard (the white horse) is ideally located on the Dam square. It is a friendly and historic eetcafé (brasserie with a Dutch twist) that offers traditional cuisine in a warm setting. The rich history of this place is reflected in the many details that will catch your eye. The real secret of the place is the superb garden, a real green setting for a moment out of time. In the winter, the establishment also has an incredible charm.

Luwte means a place without wind, and while this promise may not be fulfilled every day on the restaurant's terrace, it's still well worth the trip. This is a quality address, offering a menu inspired by French and Italian cuisine with Asian touches. The decor is as romantic and bohemian as you could wish for. It's very pleasant to sit on the banquette with its soft cushions. The wine list is well thought-out but not cheap. An address to remember, well located and close to Anne Frank's house.

Dané is the restaurant launched by a very young hotel couple, Laurien and Tommy, who have put their heart and talent into it. The show is often on the plate, with dishes as inspired as they are beautiful. The décor is very well thought-out, with intimate spaces and a plethora of plants. This address lends itself well to a romantic evening. The terrace is not to be outdone and will welcome you in fine weather. The menu focuses on vegetables and fish. It's also possible to enjoy small dishes as an aperitif.

Here is a nice address! It is both a restaurant and a wine shop specialized in wine. The menu is largely inspired by the seasons and local products. Great care is given to vegetarian and even vegan products. The team in the kitchen and in the dining room will do everything to ensure that you have a pleasant meal with excellent wines that will not ruin you. Le Mortier is located in an old building and the decor is light and bright. An address that celebrates modern French cuisine!

Just a 2-minute walk from the station, on the edge of the red-light district, you'll find a very pleasant and typical stopover, where you can even take a boat and moor up on the bank of this beautiful pub, which is very lively from 9pm onwards, to enjoy a draught in a marine setting enhanced by the warmth of the brown wood, or to bask in the sun on the terrace that forms an angle with the top of the Oudezijds Voorburgwal. It's all very photogenic. The menu features brasserie dishes, salads and more hearty meat dishes. A typical address.
