Maastricht Restaurants and Maastricht Dining
(Maastricht, Limburg, Netherlands, NL)



The dining and drinking experience in Maastricht is perhaps epitomized by the coffee shops, a number of which will happily sell 'hash' over the counter and at times, even provide a menu of their products. However, for those who are simply looking for a good meal, Maastricht contains plenty of restaurants to choose from, both Dutch and international in their character.

If you are looking to experience a little of the traditional cuisine on offer in this part of the Netherlands, then Dutch restaurants are your best bet. You can expect everything from soups, stews, meatballs, sauerkraut and even a cheese fondue, with sweets often being extremely simple and including pancakes, rice pudding or yoghurt. When dining out in a Maastricht restaurant, you will find that regional beer is plentiful and always a great way to wash down your meal.




Maastricht Restaurants and Dining: Where to Eat - Maastricht, Netherlands, NL
The almost endless coffee shops within Maastricht cater well to visitors, providing cheap eats and often being able to converse in several different languages, due to their customers usually comprising many foreign visitors. Restaurants in Maastricht could never really be considered to be cheap, with many targeting the older crowd.

However, there are some quite affordable eateries highly suitable for families, particularly Mexican-style restaurants, along with pizzerias and Italian dining venues, where pasta and salads are always popular.

Restaurants in Maastricht are to be found within the inner harbour of Bassin, along the bustling street of the Platielstraatk, and on the neighbouring and considerably quieter street of Bredestraat. The pedestrian drag of the Vrijthof is always a good place for fine dining in Maastricht, while a number of small, inexpensive restaurants and eateries have based themselves on the Stationstraat and the Sint Pieterstraat.

If you are looking for a view from your cafe window, few come better than the Mississippi Boat, a popular coffee shop based on the River Meuse itself.
