15 minutes in the car from Húns and you are in Leeuwarden! There is a good chance that you will also pay a visit to this wonderful city. Our first tip: park at the Oldehove. Then you can immediately admire the leaning tower of Friesland. Wondering where you can have breakfast, lunch, drinks or dinner afterwards? We have listed that for you. Discover the food and drinks in Leeuwarden.
1. Stek
Stek is the perfect place for basically everything. They have good coffee, tasty pastries, lunch and dinner! All prepared with fresh and organic ingredients. The cozy and trendy restaurant is located in the old bridge keeper's house in Leeuwarden and has a sunny terrace on the water. You can spot Stek when you drive towards Oldehove to park.

2. Nørd Concept Store
Yes, you read that right; Nørd is actually a shop (and a very nice one at that). Yet Nørd should not be missing from this list, because here they serve the best coffee in Leeuwarden . In their coffee grinder you will find specialty coffee from Bocca. Drinking creamy cappuccinos while being tempted by all the beautiful things in the store... What more could you want?

3. Blokhuispoort
A place you should not miss is the old prison of Leeuwarden: the Blokhuispoort. Here you will find not 1, but 3 (!) nice catering places for coffee, lunch, drinks and dinner. Between the walls of the old prison is Bajes Beach, which is perhaps the most unique terrace in Leeuwarden. Covered or in the sun. On a lounger in the sand or at the long beer tables. It really is all possible at Bajes Beach. If you prefer to enjoy organic and local ingredients on a terrace on the canal, you can go to Tasting Leave. Inside the Blokhuispoort you will also find a library (dbieb) and café De Bak.

4. Post-Plaza Grand Café
Another great coffee hotspot, with its own coffee roasting facility! This location used to be the post office of Leeuwarden. Now it is an impressive place for lunch and dinner. Believe us; you will be amazed by the historic building. And if the weather permits, you can sit on their terrace or in the courtyard!
Tweebaksmarkt 25-27, Leeuwarden

5. Bagels & Beans Leeuwarden
Our guilty pleasure is definitely Bagels & Beans, because they are delicious in every city. This location is also cozy on a canal, with a small but nice terrace.

6. Roast
Cocktails, a courtyard, a terrace on a canal, conviviality, high-quality food and an impressive interior: that is Roast! With good and bad weather, this is a wonderful place to dine in the center of Leeuwarden.
Nieuwestad 63-65, Leeuwarden

7. Huize Kwast
Roast is surrounded by many other restaurants. Each with large terraces on the canal or on a bridge. One of them is Huize Kwast, where we can sometimes be found for cheese fondue!

8. Lazy Lemon
For comfort food and a relaxed atmosphere, Lazy Lemon is a great place. Because of the coziness inside and the trendy interior, this is a restaurant where we like to go when the weather is not terrace-friendly. They serve an extensive breakfast, homemade pastries, lunch and dinner. Our tip: try the pancakes!
