De Buurman seems to be the only restaurant in downtown Heerenveen that is consistently busy every night.
The building itself is welcoming and has just the right feeling for a Dutch café restaurant. The menu has plenty of choice and over half a dozen or so visits, I've yet to have a bad meal whether it was the simple but delicious 'Ribs n Wings' or the Steak with Gorgonzola.
Additional to the good food is a reasonable selection of beers and wines, I particularly appreciate their tendency to stock a variety of seasonal beers.

We ate here on a Sunday night and it was surprisingly busy! We were made to feel right at home from the warm greeting when we entered to the wait-staff that took care of every need! We had a baby with us and he was well cared for as well! The food and drink were very reasonable priced and the quantity quite sufficient! In fact we didn't even order an entree per person but rather ordered 4 to share among the 6 adults, along with a few appetizers, and it was plenty! Everything was served beautifully, they do pay attention to the artistic look of the food! AND, it was all delicious! Some of the appetizers do require one of the staff to assemble the dish as you watch, very beautifully done! Some of our friends ordered desserts and we all had coffie. The dessert portion was enough for two people! The pace was perfect, they didn't rush us and we had the best time! We will definietly go back!

The best restaurant to eat meat in Heerenveen and probably in Friesland. The service and quality is really good. Nice decoration and calm environment.

Pizzas and pastas are in the course of the years of good quality, but the quality can sometimes change from very good to moderate. Same goes for the service. Still one of the better Italian restaurants in Heerenveen. Space tot sit/eat is small.
Reservations recommended as this place is polular with the locals (including star soccer players of FC Heerenveen).

We liked that we were the only people in the restaurant when we arrived, and we received great service. The owner/chef seemed very friendly and the waitress as well. The food was fine, but they had a sign up about the great steaks, my husband was anxious to eat a good steak as we heard they're hard to come by in Europe in general. While it was fine, it was not 'great'. It came with grilled pineapples which I love but my husband does not. A few other couples arrived as we were eathing and everyone seemed to recieve the same great attention. The value was in keeping with other restaurants that we'd been to.

We weren't planning on dining here but ended up here on a Friday night. Excellent place. staff very flexible and very professional. The food was very, very tasteful. Lots of choice on the menu, they serve customers from all walks of life. Recommend it.
7. Het Ambacht

A restaurant with great creativity and finesse, located in the somewhat unlikely location of Heerenveen. Definitely good if you are looking to celebrate a special occasion. You don't have a menu but rather you let the chef offer a multiple course tasting, which takes into consideration your dietary requirements. We have now been twice and were pleasantly surprised on both occasions. my only wish would be for them to showcase some more regional ingredients or frisian cheeses or cooking techniques, which would add new flavour to the place.
8. Wok Oriental

This wok restaurant had a lot of choices: you can choose between wok, tepanyaki, Chinese buffet and/or salads. Unlike most buffet restaurants the veggies and meat/fish are of good quality. The dessert buffet also offers lots of choice.
On top of that you can drink as much as you like. Really!!! There's just a 2.5 hour time-limit, that can be extended if you wish. We were there in the weekend and paid only 26.50 euro's per person: children eat for 1.5 times their age. On weekdays they charge less.
The place is nicely decorated as well, and the overall atmosphere is great.
A good option for dinner after a day in Thialf!

We happened to pass by and checked the internet for a nice place in the area. Nice Terrace, kitsch decoration indide and great food. The meat was the best I've had in the NL, maybe a little scarce, but with nice and variate side dishes to complete a whole meal.

The name says it all "fresh" that's exactly right. The burger and fries are freshly made and you will taste it for sure! I ordered the bacon burger, the bacon was delicious. And the burger was perfectly cooked. The fries were crispy. The service was really nice. It's a nice place for everybody.
