Smells like Chocolate
Chocolate shop
👍👍 Visited during December 2023
While heading to visit the Windmills, we stopped by this great little chocolate factory shop.
We were surprised by the quality chocolate prepared in this place, which was made in the back kitchen, of the little factory as the owner suggests.
We tried the hot thick cho...

Darjeeling Restaurant Krommenie
Indian restaurant
👍👍 Fantastic indian restaurant.
We tried many dishes and they were all pretty great with lots of flavour.
I highly recommend the chicken saag, bhindi masala and butter chicken.
The khana sets are also a great way to try different flavours.

Ristorante La Forchetta
Restaurant
😠 Today decided to order pizza here. Never had a pizza like this before! 3 kilos of white dough with a small layer of mozzarella and old sickly salami, immediately thrown in the trash, a pity.

Mill
👍👍 These guys were very friendly and insightful. There was such a cool vibe during their demonstration and you could tell they were experts at operating the windmill. My kids loved this experience and was well worth the ticket price

Eetcafé de Toog
Restaurant
👍 The hot chocolate was one of the best ones. I had the chicken club sandwich, it is too huge and heavy. The fries were very wholesome. Also we had cheese toasties with pumpkin and mustard soup ..which were equally great! Highly recommended!!

Zaandam Time Museum
Museum
👍👍 Zaandam was beautiful. Pictures can't capture all of its beauty.
We took a taxi from Amersterdam, it cost €15 for 4 of us. It's free to enter, but there are options to climb some of the windmills for a fee. Parking is also available for a fee.

Brouwerij Hoop
Brewpub
👍👍 Great brews, good food and excellent service. If visiting the windmills take the water taxi over and you can visit this brewery on the shorter walk back to the station.
