Love this picturesque little seaside village north of Amsterdam, and among all the outdoor cafes we…read morechose this one because it was the busiest. Locals always know best, and we saw a table emptying as we walked by and that's how we decided on this one. Really good fish, of course. Very polite and typically Dutch waitstaff that does not wish to hurry you, and was very patient with my limited language capability but of course, spoke fluently in my language. The view is incredible, the food is served hot and fresh, and we appreciate that we were not rushed to clear our table because we had a primo view. Very nice place, friendly staff.

May 2011 we spend a marvellous night at Oude Sluis in Lemmer. There is no place like that in the…read moreFriesland Area. You will meet the strangest sailing people you can imagine. Oude Sluis is a beer pub. In former times they served a special German beer called Hannen Alt, which is brewed in Düsseldorf. Nowadays they have typical dutch stuff like Amstel at the tap. As we were there (4 sailing friends), a big-boobed girl was behind the counter. Serving beer in high speed. In front of the counter we found people of every age and nationality. A magician walked around and made strange tricks to the customers. We left at 3 in the mornig. This pub is definitely crazy, but we had a lot of fun there. Step in, if you stay at Lemmer.

Though Purmerend is not known for its thriving bar scene, Bonte Koe is a reliable option when…read moreyou're looking to fill your belly with high-quality beer. The bar sports a great selection of brews on tap and on bottle (including some American beers, which are notoriously hard to find in the Netherlands), making it a favorite for local beer lovers; on Saturday's you might have a hard time finding a spot to sit. But whether you're sitting or standing, the friendly staff is happy to serve you and will gladly advise you on which beer to taste next. And if you get the munchies, they're also more than willing to fry up some typical Dutch 'borrelhapjes'. All in all, Bonte Koe is a nice low-key place that's perfect for boozing and talking; we've had many a great conversation here.

The food there is to die for, and the locals were having the time of their lives. The atmosphere and service were top-notch. I even got to watch a thrilling football match between the local team and France, and let me tell you, the energy and excitement were off the charts. Amsterdam truly gave me an unforgettable experience.
