Elke van Wander-lust bezocht Hoorn en ontdekte vele fijne lunchadresjes.
Welcome to Hoorn! Your (future) visit to Hoorn probably took you to this article, so let’s get to it. Here are some of our favorite lunch spots in Hoorn we think you will love too.
LUNCH IN HOORN
Although Hoorn is a historical city, it’s becoming more and more trendy. This also means that new lunch spots are popping up, giving visitors plenty of options. On our little quest for tasty food, we came across these lunch spots in Hoorn, that we think you will love, too.
The Brunch Brothers
Opened in 2023, this used to be a pink Walhalla which recently transformed into the place to be for brunch in Hoorn. Expect American pancakes, pretty yoghurt bowls, tasty bagels and salads. Nice to know: they serve a beautiful high tea with cakes and tea’s by Simon Levelt. thebrunchbrothers.nl
De Kade
The perfect place for a good lunch in Hoorn, overlooking the harbor. Burgers for a good deal, and De Kade is known for participating in exiting city-events throughout the year. After lunch, this is also a favorite with locals coming for beers and wine around 4-5 pm.
Appelhaven Food & Drinks
Located at the canal, their outside terrace is situated on a boat which makes Appelhaven an unique spot. If the weather isn’t warm enough, we advise you to definitely opt for their restaurant space inside, which is beautiful and cosy. appelhavenhoorn.nl
Ysbrantsz
Although we highly recommend you to have dinner here – we can’t deny that Ysbrantsz also serves up a fantastic lunch. Besides, they have a hidden garden in the back, perfect for people looking for a relaxing lunchbreak. Did you know that Ysbrantsz is has a boutique hotel with ten beautiful bedrooms? Book your stay here.
Brasserie/Restaurant De Tuynkamer
This place can be packed during the weekend, as its located right in the city center, so reserve a spot. Our favorite spot has to be in their glass house. Especially cosy during the winter months. Food is low key but for everyone; soups, bagels, simple salads, with a few Dutch classics. detuynkamer.nl
West 72
We didn’t managed to try this spot yet because they are closed on Mondays and Tuesdays, but we heard good things! Unlike a simple lunch room, West 72 gives guests a little extra. You can pick between 2 and 4 courses, or order a la card. Although they serve seasonal ingredients, dishes can include a creamy risotto, daily fish and tenderloin with veggies and crisps. west72.nl
The Saint
Another unique lunch spot in Hoorn and this time in a Church! This restaurant is part of Hotel Heavens, that was built in a massive Church. You could say that The Saint and its hotel, are both luxurious, yet comfortably accessible. You can sit in comfortabele sit corners with large round tables for plenty of space. Bonus; they have an outside terrace! heavenshotelhoorn.com/restaurant-the-saint
Café Goos
A favorite for the locals! Besides the “gezellige” vibe, they serve vegetarian and vegan dishes! Don’t worry if you’re a meatlover, they serve traditional café dishes with plantbased options so you don’t even miss it. Owners Myra and Daniël and their team will welcome you with open arms at their café across from Heavens & the Saint. cafe-goos.nl
