Pannenkoekenhuis d'Olle Smidse

Nestled in a quaint small town just 30 km east of Groningen, the 'Old Smith' Pancake House is a cosy and family-friendly haven renowned for its diverse pancake offerings. Sweet and savoury choices together make a total of 50 varieties, and you can even craft your own personalised pannenkoek. The establishment caters to various dietary needs, including food allergies and vegan preferences, and although Dutch-style pancakes will likely not leave you hungry, the menu also features burgers and other meals for a complete dining experience.

Mahalo

Nestled just beside the city's green lung, Noorderplantsoen, Mahalo is committed to all things fresh and local, offering a menu of wholesome breakfast choices, light lunches and delectable sweet treats, to be had with comforting hot drinks or fresh juices bursting with flavours. Beyond the outdoor seating perfectly suitable for people-watching, the café also prepares picnic baskets to enjoy in the adjacent park.

Grand Café Mr. Bakels

Grand Café Mr. Bakels, formerly known as Grand Café Groningen, offers a delightful experience from lunches to dinners, coffee breaks, and lively social gatherings. Nestled in a 19th-century building, this 'brown café' prides itself on using regional, sustainable and, when possible, ecological products. Known for its exceptional cheesecake with weekly flavour rotations, the café also caters to various dietary needs, including gluten-free and lactose-free options. With its cosy ambiance, including soft lighting and greenery, it's an ideal spot for both casual meet-ups and special events.

Spaak Koffie & Koers

Coffee is a great companion for all activities, and for the Dutch, cycling is among the top things it can complement. Spaak is a lively, hip café where you can get your caffeine fix alongside pastries, rich sandwiches and lunch, and even have your bike checked or buy that missing accessory before getting back on two wheels.

De Theefabriek

Located less than 30 km from Groningen on the doorstep of Lauwersmeer National Park, De Theefabriek is the Netherlands' only tea museum, which also stands as a tea room and gift store, in a quaint but picturesque ambiance. With hundreds of teas to choose from, you can explore a diverse range of flavours — including those of high tea snacks — while immersing themselves in the rich culture of tea from around the world.
