22 X lovely terraces throughout the Netherlands for a Zo-Mi-Bo

Hello summer! And hello terrace season. There is nothing better than meeting up with friends outdoors this summer. That is why, together with Frisfrank brand Fïnley, I have compiled a list of great terraces throughout the Netherlands for a fun drink. Grabbing a spot on a terrace is one of my favorite things to do when the weather is nice. Enjoying people-watching, catching up with friends, and especially ordering lots of tasty snacks. Whatever your plans are for this summer at home, the terrace tips in this new list are guaranteed to be a great place to be when the sun comes out. Will you go for Fïnley Tonic, or would you prefer Bitter Lemon or Ginger Ale? I am curious to know what your favorite flavor is! Have you spotted a nice terrace on this list? Then don't forget to make a reservation via the website so that all RIVM guidelines can be followed. Have fun!

22 terraces in the Netherlands to meet your friends

Noble by Dennis: The building where Edel by Dennis is located, Het Sieraad, is a beautiful industrial building in West Amsterdam. When the weather is nice, you can relax on the lovely, large terrace right on the water. And did I mention the snacks are also excellent?

SOIA: Strand Oog in Al (better known as SOIA) is a summer hotspot that anyone looking for a great place to have a drink should know. It overlooks the water in Utrecht.
Kanaalweg 199, Utrecht – soia.nl

Snowy (The Hague): A definite favorite in The Hague, because you'll want to try everything on the extensive drinks menu (the nachos are definitely a must-try). Are you team "in the sun" or prefer "shade"? On Milú's terrace, you can sit comfortably in the shade under the awning, but there's always a sunny spot to be found.
Driehoekjes 15, The Hague – restaurantmilu.nl

By AMI (Rotterdam): Sitting on the terrace at By AMI, you almost feel like you're in Brooklyn, New York, with a view of the former industrial buildings. And did I mention they have some really delicious snacks?

The Boathouse KralingenI love these kinds of places just outside the bustling city center. The Boathouse is right on Kralingse Plas lake in Rotterdam. It's a lovely terrace for drinks with friends, surrounded by greenery and with a view of the water.
Langepad 51, Rotterdam – theboathousekralingen.nl

On Roose (Utrecht): Since last year, Op Roose has been a waterfront terrace in Utrecht that's become a fixture. It feels like a hidden gem on the edge of the Kanaleneiland neighborhood. From late afternoon onwards, the terrace is wonderfully sunny, and you can stay until sunset. 
Rooseveltlaan 505, Utrecht – oproose.nl

Water edge (Amsterdam): As an Amsterdammer, I can't deny that the terrace at Waterkant has been one of my summer favorites since it opened. At the foot of a parking garage reminiscent of the Guggenheim Museum in New York, this is a summer hotspot not to be missed. The drinks menu features Surinamese fusion snacks.

Stan & Co (Arnhem): Easily one of the finest terraces in Arnhem. It's within walking distance of the station and large enough that there's (almost) always a spot. Grab a snack platter and linger until the sun sets.
Willemsplein 46, Arnhem – stan-co.nl

Doloris RooftopThis might just be Tilburg's most popular hotspot right now. Here you can enjoy a Fïnley at a great height! It's a great place to go for a drink around golden hour.
Spoorlaan 21, Tilburg – doloris.nl

Bistro Jules (The Hague): The terrace at Bistro Jules feels like you've discovered a hidden spot in a French village. That's no coincidence, as the menu is French-inspired with a Swiss twist. This means a delicious drinks menu that also includes a mini cheese fondue!
Could. Emmakade 118A, The Hague – cafebistrojules.nl

mommy (Scheveningen): Fancy a drink with a view of the Ferris wheel on the Scheveningen pier? Then you have to go to all-day hotspot Moeke. With a lovely, spacious terrace and an extensive drinks menu, you're in good hands here. It's also a great spot for drinks after a walk on the beach.
Beach Road 155, Scheveningen – moeke.nl

GAPP (Amsterdam): Rooftops are always a good idea, in my opinion. In Amsterdam East, the green rooftop terrace at GAPP is a wonderful place to relax because there's always a nice breeze.
First Ringdijkstraat 4, Amsterdam – hotelcasa.nl

Noise (Blaricum): At Bruis in Blaricum, you can enjoy drinks with the kids. A large terrace nestled in a green space with a playground. Grab a portion of snacks and enjoy the summer!
Deltazijde 3-01, Blaricum – restaurantbruisblaricum.nl

Bleyenberg (The Hague): In the heart of the city center, you can't miss this hotspot. It has a great terrace for meeting friends, and it's also a rooftop bar. The Hague's very first rooftop bar, to be precise. The view and Fïnleys on fleek!
Grote Markt 10, The Hague – bleyenbergdenhaag.nl

Zeal (Amsterdam): The warehouse at the NDSM wharf where IJver is located is already an impressive building, but on the terrace with a view of the most beautiful street art works, you will really be amazed.
Shipbuilding Quay 72, Amsterdam – ijveramsterdam.nl

Diligence, Amsterdam

Sofa Restaurant-Brasserie (Maastricht): Just outside the busy centre of Maastricht, Sofa is an oasis of tranquility where you can relax on the spacious terrace.
Hoge Weerd 6, Maastricht – sofamaastricht.nl

baay (Breda): What an asset addresses like Baai are to a city. Because let's face it, having a drink by the water with your feet in the grass is always a good idea, isn't it?
Markkade 1AB, Breda – baaibreda.nl

Blue Lagoon (Scheveningen): Feet in the sand, Fïnley in hand, enjoying the sea view. On the terrace of Blue Lagoon, you'll feel like you're in a foreign country while slurping down an oyster.
Strandweg 25-27, The Hague – bluelagoon.nl

Blue Lagoon, Scheveningen

Window 33 (Amsterdam): Locals know you can easily avoid the crowds at Gerard Douplein in the bustling De Pijp neighborhood by walking a bit further to Venster33. A Fïnley hotspot to remember, because the drinks menu is also excellent. I always order the tatsu (Japanese chicken) with siracha mayonnaise.
First van der Helststraat 42, Amsterdam – window33.nl

Peter's Bistro (Utrecht): A wonderfully quiet spot near Utrecht's Griftpark. With a view of the water and a large terrace perfect for catching up with friends or just the two of you. It's also a great place to relax after a walk in the park when it's not too crowded.
Blauwkapelseweg 30, Utrecht – griftpark1.nl

Rapa Nui (Zandvoort): Fancy sitting on a terrace with your feet in the sand? That's what Rapa Nui in Zandvoort is all about. This beach club has been a household name for years and is always a great place for drinks with friends. You can even hang out until the sun goes down!
Boulevard Barnaart 27, Zandvoort – rapanui.nl

Shade (Amsterdam): Easily one of the nicest new patios in Amsterdam West. It feels like you've discovered a hidden gem, right in the middle of a residential neighborhood. An oasis of calm in Amsterdam's concrete jungle.
