Look, BAM! This is what you were waiting for. The TOP 12 terraces in Rotterdam. We visited them on more than 200 terraces in and around the center of Rotterdam. Not only did we look at price/quality, but also whether it is safe to covid, whether you can sit in the sun and whether the […]

In a wonderful freestanding building that looks like it shouldn't be freestanding is the cozy journalist cafe Verhip. The menu is classic and complete, with the highlights being the satay and the bouncer. The terrace of Verhip on the south and west is spacious. In addition, the freestanding cafeteria can use the terrace flexibly, […]

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.

The Nieuwemarkt is also the place with one […]

The quays of the pleasant historic Oude Haven are actually a series of terraces with something for everyone. Cocktails, barbecue, vodka and oysters; it's hard not to find a place where you feel at home. Yet in view of the distance, we feel less inclined to take a seat at the […]

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 [...]
