Food Scene
My favorite lunch place (lunch served until 5pm). All of the sandwiches are great but the Sloppy Joe is a must-try if you only go there once.
In the evening the place becomes a local hang-out spot.

De Nachtwacht
2 ThorbeckepleinThe best spare-ribs in town, trust me - try it once, you'll be hooked.
Best steak in town, there's something about their grill - the steak is great every time! Also the mixed salads, fajitas, soups - the entire menu, served unusually fast.
I frequent there since 1999.

Cozy italian restaurant with great chef and excellent view.
I recommend booking in advance as it's really small and is always full.
