Beer restaurants
These restaurants offer beers from a number of local breweries. Some of them also offer delicious beer-based dishes.
Gainsbourg
Gainsbourg's menu excels in simplicity, with classics from home and abroad brought to you in their purest form. In the kitchen, they prepare everything as they have done for centuries: with wood, charcoal, spices and lots of time!

De Hoorn
The former brewery of Stella Artois has become De Hoorn, where today you can dine and have lunch among the old brewing kettles. In this very original setting, taste this restaurant's specialty: Burger De Hoorn with Stella dressing. Or enjoy a beef stew with Saint Bernard abt.12 beer.
