Eating on a boat on the Westeinderplassen

Eating on a boat on the Westeinderplassen

If you say you’ve reserved an à la carte dinner on a boat, you may be looked at a bit strangely. But you know better: fine dining on a boat on the Westeinderplassen, that’s a real experience!

A unique restaurant package

Dining on a saloon boat on the Westeinderplassen: it may sound a bit unusual. But really, why not? The place is cozy, the service is good and the dishes are perfect.
In this unique à la carte package, you make your choice from the menu on board. That is passed on to the restaurant we work with – or a restaurant you prefer, of course. As soon as the order arrives, the kitchen brigade goes to work. The moment the starters, mains and desserts are ready, the boat is at the restaurant to take everything on board. The dishes come fresh from the kitchen, straight to your plate.
