- Precio: €€

Café-restaurant on the Markt, opposite the Waag, with breakfast, lunch and dinner and a terrace on the cheese market square. Open every day.

The place
De Zalm is right on the Markt, a step from the Waag: if you eat on its terrace on a Thursday from April to August, you have the cheese market in front of you. It is a classic Dutch café-restaurant, opening from mid-morning with breakfast and continuing with lunch, dinner and drinks until late.
When to go
Open every day from 10:00, including Sunday, until 22:00. It is the easy option for eating without a reservation after the market or the Sint-Jan, and for a beer at the end of the day with the square lit up.
Getting there
On the Markt, about ten minutes' walk from the station. If you come by car, the nearest car park is a Q-Park in the centre.

Qué pedir: a lunch on the terrace on a market Thursday, with the Waag in front of you.
