Franeker Hotell

Food & beverage

The restaurant offers French cuisine, local specialities and simple, good old fashioned meals. The menu is regularly adjusted to use the finest fresh seasonal ingredients. You can choose a light snack, a daily special or select one of the typical Dutch dishes available. There is also a variety of kids’ dishes for little guests. Staff will try to serve your dinner as fast as possible, without losing track of the high standards you would expect in a 4-star hotel. Since our hotel bar is partly separated from the restaurant, it gives the feeling of being in a small pub. From 11:00 till 01:00, the bartender will be more than pleased to serve a wide variety of drinks. However, you can also choose to enjoy a drink in the relaxing lounge, which is equipped with comfortable chairs and a reading table. The hotel's atmosphere is informal and cosy, which is frequently considered to be typical of the Frisian area. This will be reflected not only in the staff’s behaviour, but also in the decoration.
