Meteopole Café NRC

By Zazala

NRC is a very funky and nice restaurant with a great ambience and friendly staff! The food is good, not too expensive and it is located in the Wiite de Wit straat; which is the going out street in Rotterdam! Enjoy their nice Rotterdam NR-blondje and taste some great Rotterdam hospitality!

Vegan dinner in an old Train

In the middle of Rotterdam Noord you can find a derailed train coupe in the middle of the street. Take place in this original setting for a well prepared vegan dinner! Besides the really nice food I really like the cozy, nostalgic and a little romantic atmosphere.

Not open for too long but already a favorite amongst many. By Jarmusch offers typical American diner breakfast and brunch. Locals come here for the relaxed atmosphere and to eat away their hangover with some nice eggs or pancakes.

Original and honest French kitchen. And still, everytime very surprising. You will directly feel at home in this nice atmosphere. Limited, but very tasteful menu. Hidden in the small streets of the 'Old North'.

Coffee roaster and breakfast champ

Man met Bril Koffie

Man met bril koffie (Man with glasses coffee) roasts its own beans, so the smell and the heat of the roasting feel comforting to me. Breakfast choices are so good, as are the sweets. Nice spot away of the city centre, lovely atmosphere, nice people.

It's a place that doesn't look like anything else in the city. The atmosphere is great with beautiful interior and a lots of plants. The menu is diverse, you can choose the yummiest fluffy pancakes or you can go for a healthy soup. They have regular foods but also options that are a bit more special.

This place run by a mother and daughter is a delight for people with a sweettooth. A breakfast and lunch here is a party for sight and taste. Just pick a menu and let yourself be indulged by that what arrives.

I love the small portions they serve. It's easy to share with your company and gives you the chance to try more things. Good Mexican food, such as burritos, chicken and nachos. Also a must-try are the cocktails. Very good and great size.

Nice people, good food, great ambiance

Lola - Bar & Kitchen

If you want to eat at a Spanish pace for a good price, Lola is a fine place to go. When it’s busy, you’ll probably have to wait a little while between your dishes, but the taste of the food and kindness of the waitresses and waiters takes the hurry away. The location is near one of the best bar areas in the centre of Rotterdam. (Witte de With).

Cute and Affordable Chinese Restaurant

Super Crepe, West-Kruiskade, Rotterdam, Netherlands

This place is a hidden gem, it's always pact with young Chinese people (they know their food). It has Chinese pancakes, but the hot pot is amazing and authentic (like in Sichuan province). If you like spicy food, this is heaven for you. The cold noodles are my absolute favourite.

Happy earth, the name says it all... I often go here to treat myself a delicious vegan lunch, take friends for a nice juice with a healthy homemade piece of cheesecake, or sit on the nice wooden tables with my laptop. Everything is fresh made by the lovely host of this place herself. Always there for a small chat, or advice for great recipe!

Though situated in the tourist highlight of the Markthal, Basq kitchen is a great experience for foodies from around the world. With chefs trained in San Sebastian, Spain, youre in for a treat. A good way to experience the place is to ask the (very friendly) waiters to just 'pick a couple of good dishes'!

Cheap Italian Street Food

Nice Italian food made by Italians with ingredients from Italy. What more can you ask for? The desserts are also amazing - Pistachio lava cake is a must. Location is perfect 2 minutes away from Markthal and much cheaper than what you find there.
