This is a very nice Hema in Utrecht. In the centrum right on the canal. It has two floors with…read moreescalators but not cramped at all. Most Hema's are large and very open space but this one takes it a step further. Doors in the front and back are a nice feature as well...plus with better ventilation. Hot food and drinks. Lots of wine and beer (to go) too! What's not to like. They had every kind of stroopwafel I didn't even know existed! Lots of candies and cakes too. Lekker! They do have everything from bike parts to socks as well. Of course things are a bit different during Corona times, but let's hope Hema keeps these big stores in expensive areas open. Worth checking out when you're right in the center and a 10 minute walk from the train station (through the mall).

A massive mall nearly attached to the Central Station in Utrecht, Netherlands. It's a gateway to…read morethe city of Utrecht from the station. Being from The United States, I must admit it is quite an impressive mall. I used to have minor panic attacks walking through this to get to Utrecht Center City with all the people. Now that the Corona measures are in place, it's a lot more tamed. The parking garage is high-end. Bathrooms are attended and it has the largest bicycle parking facility in The Netherlands. It's more than a "mall" but a destination. Still generally the same stores you find in center cities all over Holland, but more of a selection. Everything you need and very few closed locations. Worth a visit. I go here when the weather is terrible outside to get some steps too! Gezellig!

Friendly staff, Nespresso counter, delicious patisserie and a large section of kitchen and…read moredinnerware. That's really all I ask for and it's what I get here at the Bijenkorf, I love browsing the kitchen and dining section downstairs though I rarely actually buy something here. Either I buy it on sale or I look the product up online to find a better price. Also, I rarely look at any of the other departments here, kitchenware is really all I'm interested in as I would never spend fifty or more Euros on a pair of knickers nearly a thousand Euros on a coat. That's all just way out of my price range. I can however be tempted to buy the occasional treat at the patisserie. Everything I've had there has always been delicious and left cravings for more. I also love the rotating selection of boxed chocolates, wines and snacks that they sell right next to the patisserie counter. That corner is my guilty little pleasure and I love it. Also, if you're looking for jewellery, I recommend you not only consider the jewellers in the city but also have a look at Bijenkorf as they have a wonderful selection of brands in quite a broad range of prices. Whether your looking to spend around €250 or €2500 on a real diamond work of art (everything is so beautiful!) you're sure to find something. I personally love the brand Diamond Point where I recently found my perfect ring. I'm completely in love with it and can't wait for it to be ready. Sadly, I have fat fingers which means a custom order so I patiently await the arrival of my beauty. In the meanwhile, I will be back for pastries!

This location is poorly organized and doesn't have many options. You are better off visiting the…read morelarger store nearby.
