From A La Plancha you can already see it behind the Willemsbrug: the old tropical swimming paradise Tropicana. The wonderful building is now a breeding ground for small businesses that work on the circular economy, sustainability and alternative use of materials under the collective name BlueCity.

While we're on the subject of seafood restaurants – do you know where else you can sit on the water? A La Plancha on the North Island. The terrace is located on the abutment of the old Willemsbrug and therefore crosses straight into the Nieuwe Maas. The restaurant once started as a pop-up restaurant to bring more visitors to the […]

It is a world in itself, near the Binnenrotte, with all kinds of nice little shops and eateries. An editor's favorite is Boguette's delicious Vietnamese baguettes.

If you walk from the Oude Binnenweg towards the Nieuwe Binnenweg, you will always pass a bunch of terraces at the beginning. These terraces belong to Stalles, Bar3 and Rotown. They are friendly, everyone seems to meet each other here 'by chance' and the offer is also excellent (service a little less). The big disadvantage is that […]

Art Nouveau café Sijf on the Oude Binnenweg is probably the most beautiful café in Rotterdam. Anyway, we are not talking about the inside, but about the terraces. And Sijf's terrace is always pleasant. The chairs are slightly more comfortable than the bar stools, and sometimes it is a bit crowded, but the corner terrace [...]

If you take the Hoerenloper (that's the name of the pedestrian bridge) from Hotel New York, you leave the Kop van Zuid and enter Katendrecht, better known as 'the Cape'. As soon as you step off the bridge, you are almost on the spacious terrace of Kaapse Brouwers, makers of the tastiest beer in Rotterdam. It has ended […]
