The place
The best-known restaurant at the Zaanse Schans occupies a merchant's house of 1717 and its warehouse, in the middle of the Kalverringdijk, with its own jetty and a terrace over the Zaan. It is the place for a long, carefully prepared lunch, watching the boats go by with the windmills in the background, after a morning of sightseeing.
Practical details
It is currently open at midday, from 12:00 to 17:00; do not count on dinner. Book on its website, especially in good weather, because the terrace is what everyone wants. If you arrive in your own boat, it has a jetty.
What to order: the midday meal on the river terrace, looking at the windmills.
