A Culinary Journey Through Time at Eethuys de Steen
Location and Legacy
Just 700 meters from Camper Site Willemsoord is Eethuys de Steen, a culinary treasure with deep historical roots. When you step inside, you are immediately immersed in an atmosphere of nostalgia and the taste of the award-winning Telegraaf Golden Meatball – voted the tastiest meatball in the Netherlands.
A Menu Full of Stories
Eethuys de Steen proudly bears its past. Founded in 1876 as an inn and coffee house, this place breathes the rich history of Willemsoord as Colony III of the Society of Weldadigheid. This is underscored by the creative menu, where dishes such as “Blood Sweat and Tears” tomato soup and “Lazy Thunder” spare ribs playfully transport you to times gone by.
Experiences Outside the Kitchen
The third generation of the Stroeve family continues the tradition, offering more than just a meal. Dive deeper into the past with the Virtual Reality Experience or the enriching Audio Tour “On Paupervisite.”
A Place of World Interest
Adding to its rich heritage, Willemsoord has been nominated for UNESCO World Heritage status since 2011, along with other colonies of Weldadigheid in the Netherlands and Belgium. Eethuys de Steen is not just an eatery; it is a celebration of culture, history, and gastronomy.
