Where to eat in Haarlem

Haarlem is also one of the best cities in the Netherlands to visit, so there’s more than just good food to be found here. De wereld van Jansje It’s a lunchroom and giftshop in one. They have cute sustainable items in the shop part and delicious homemade food to eat. They employ people with an disability. I’ve been here twice, once for cake…
