Where to eat Dutch food in Enkhuizen: The Best Restaurants and Bars
Find out what Dutch restaurants to try in Enkhuizen. In one of the largest civil engineering works undertaken anywhere in the world during the 20th century, what was once a sea called the Zuiderzee, was turned into a combination of reclaimed land called polders and a huge lake, now known as the IJsselmeer. To fully appreciate the scale of this project, drive into town, first through the Flevoland polder to Lelystad. Then the approach to this beautiful town is via the 30-kilometer (19-mile) long dyke. You will not get a better impression of the scale of the work that took place. You first drive through mile after mile of reclaimed land, then on a road that goes right over the 'sea', with water on both sides. Enkhuizen itself was once one of the main operational bases of the East India Company (VOC). The town today is a water lovers' paradise. Boats abound; at times, every second street seems to be a canal. The Zuiderzeemuseum here has both an inside and outside section. It is devoted to the history of the Zuiderzee and the cultural heritage of the town.

Since 1972, our cozy restaurant housed in an old warehouse, and is decorated with many maritime attributes and ship-models. From our restaurant you have a wonderful view over the old port and the Drommedaris. You can lunch or dine in a maritime atmosphere

We had mussels in white wine and they were absolutely delicious! Also the other plates we saw passing by looked good and the waiters and waitresses were friendly and helpful. The terrace next to the harbour is very nice to sit on, but inside the restaurant there also is a good atmosphere. There are small ship models everywhere. When you visit Enkhuizen, this is a nice place to go!

This eaterie is associated with a fish shop. You enter through the store. Outdoor seating overlooks a canal: a nice quiet corner. A very good range of fish are available, maybe as filled rolls. Food is fresh and tasty but presentation is simple and minimal and rather small. Prices are good

Canât understand complaints about service. All three ladies who served us were quick and friendly. A couple of times we ordered drinks and they were there in less than a minute! The IT system works a treat. Food was OK, especially my plaice fillets and the cheesecake, but the chips tasted as if the fat they were fried in was a bit old. Nice view from the terrace of boats, ducks and even triathlon swimmers training. Crows are daring and help themselves if unobserved!

Stayed at their guest house for the night and had a restful sleep.A delicious breakfast was included. Location is steps from the train station and centrally located in town. Take you time visiting the Zuiderzee museum and enjoy the friendly atmosphere at the Herberg de Compagnie in the evening with a great beer.

I had the mixed grill plate. Came with small portions of baby back rib, black angus steak, chicken and chicken sate with fries. I also had a bowl of mushroom soup.The meats are grilled slightly on the dry side but seasoning is good. As such, I consider the food as average.Perhaps all dutch folks are friendly, the waitress and waiters are friendly but service is slow. This restaurant is considered popular as it has a larger crowd than other restaurants.

Centrally located but with a quiet and spacious terrace under the trees. A delightful setting for a few drinks on a hot afternoon. Unlike other places in this small and delightful town, it is on a street without cars driving right in front of the very tables where you are eating and drinking. Good Wi-Fi. Efficient but unhurried service.

We found this place when we were walking around Enkhuizen after a visit to the Zuiderzee Museum, and were very impressed with the setting right on the harbor. The chef/owner came out and recommended seafood dishes to us. My wife had salmon, and I had tuna; both were outstanding. With 2 glasses of wine, the bill came to 58 euros. Definitely worth the visit!

Nautical theme and dark, this little brown pub is a lovely place. We enjoyed a glass of their craft beer and a cod sandwich with hot potato fries and a small salad. So good and the vibe is relaxed and friendly. Restroom refurbished and clean. Located on a canal itâs a place for locals and visitors alike!

What a great place. I was in Enkhuizen on business and the locals took me to this Restraunt as it was their local. Need I say more a local recommendation is all you need. We had a truly lovely meal that was great. The staff were friendly and welcoming. All this coupled with a beautiful building and great atmosphere highly recommended.
