Carmen
Lunch was perfect. Atmosphere: what more could you want on a sunny day, sitting on a terrace overlooking the water? Service, a nice girl and a very friendly young man. We’ll be back!!!
Roel
We rented a sloop from Loetje. It was a fantastic experience on the beautiful Reeuwijkse Plassen lakes. The boats are made of thick steel, so a steering error in the narrow passages is no problem. However, the boats are extremely sensitive to crosswinds in particular. Steering then requires all your navigational skills. The organization is perfect. Highly recommended. We didn’t have time to eat in the beautiful restaurant. We’ll be back for that another time.

Loetje Reeuwijk is located in a beautiful spot by the Reeuwijkse lakes! We made a reservation in advance and enjoyed a three-course meal here with three people. The food comes in good portions and there are plenty of side dishes to order.
They had a few special dishes for this period, including a steak with truffle sauce and the cheesecake with speculoos! Highly recommended.
