Brasserie Schovenhorst in Wijk 01 Bosgebied en Krachtighuizen

We came with the expectation of having breakfast to find out that only lunch is served but we were not disappointed! The food and drinks were fresh and delicious. Staff very friendly and attentive and it’s in a beautiful setting in the woods. I would definitely return and next time for borrel where the menu card looks very appealing! The biggest bonus is that it is dog friendly.

Great place. We went there for coffee and cake around midday after a long walk. It was quite busy, but there was plenty of space. Larger groups should probably reserve a table.

Very good value for money. Friendly service. Had a delicious meal!

Delicious food and friendly service

Friendly staff. Beautiful barge

So, we arrive with a horse-drawn carriage and horse with our granddaughter. A nice ride for her birthday. Upon arrival, we are told: “A carriage like this is nice, etc., but this must remain an exception…”. Lovely, such a warm welcome…. Beautiful place. Cold staff. A very missed opportunity.

There is a good atmosphere and the road cannot be heard.

Beautiful location, had a delicious lunch, friendly staff and an extensive menu.

In early July, we celebrated our 12.5th wedding anniversary with family and friends at the Schovenhorst brasserie. What a wonderful evening, lovely atmosphere, and fantastic staff! We had indicated beforehand that the quality of the food is very important to us, and our expectations (and those of our guests) were truly exceeded! Daan-Peter and team, a solid ten from us!

Beautiful shop surrounded by greenery. Highly recommended after a walk through the Schovenhorst estate. Next to the shop lies a small but beautiful local history museum, 'De tien malem', which is certainly worth a visit as well.

Beautiful location. This time just for a drink and some nuts. Friendly, without a doubt.

Waiter spilled iced coffee all over me... lots of excuses and blah blah and I'll consult with supervisor and get back to you.... when paying, not even a cup of coffee was deducted from the bill! This was handled very poorly!!

I can't say anything else. Fantastic place, especially outside! A few years ago I wasn't that happy with the food, but that has completely changed. Delicious bites to share, for example. But the burger or fried egg dish is top-notch too. And fantastic mocktails. The service is also top-notch. They understand 'the customer is king', but they also honestly let you know if things aren't going quite as planned, take a little longer, or if they're all walking a tiny bit slower due to the extreme heat. In short: I'm a huge fan. Lunch, drinks? Highly recommended! Can't wait until they start serving dinner here too!

Delicious food, nice conversations, and a special setting

When I was there, it was pleasantly busy. I was served quickly. Friendly staff. The toilet could be a bit cleaner.

Always busy. So sometimes it's a good idea to make a reservation. A nice drink after a walk. It also seems like a great location for a party. They're set up for that.

Everything is fine! Cozy atmosphere. Dogs welcome with a dog bar.

We were still received and served kindly, even though we had to leave quickly due to a funeral. I thought that was very considerate, because they could have also said that they would rather not close in 20 minutes. You hear that more often in big cities. The iced coffee was delicious, but for me there is only one number 1 in that regard, and so far no one has knocked it off its spot. Hehe. The surroundings are really super beautiful... so just daydreaming for a bit with an iced coffee and beautiful trees and birdsong before the busy city life started again.

Beautiful location, very good food, and not expensive

When we came in, we immediately got a middle finger. Otherwise, we enjoyed ourselves.

Had a nice party. Everything was well organized.

Nice and cozy location near the Bostoren. Sat on the terrace and enjoyed some drinks. Friendly service and an extensive menu for drinks and snacks.

It's fine there. It is a bit inconvenient, though, that the parking lot is a bit further away; you have to walk a short distance.

Very busy. Some things went wrong. Quite pricey.

For lunch, we brought my parents-in-law, who are over 80, along. Let me start with a downside right away: if you indicate during the reservation that you are bringing elderly people who are not very mobile, at least let them know that the parking lot is about 500 meters from the restaurant. The forest path, with potholes and a tree root here and there, was quite a challenge for them. I really consider that a missed opportunity. After the walk, we are greeted warmly and given a nice table on the terrace. Then things remain quiet for a while. The four of us share one menu, and only after some time does a staff member come to ask if she can do anything for us. Certainly, please. Once we have ordered, the drinks appear quickly, and not much later the lunch is served as well. It is excellent! Beautifully presented and accompanied by a delicious, fresh salad. Delicious bread, a divine tuna salad, and a perfectly prepared croquette. Truly very tasty. You sit here in a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere, right in the middle of a beautiful wooded area. The service is correct; Perhaps not very warm, but certainly polite and professional. All in all, a nice lunch on a lovely terrace!

Stopping here during a hike is almost a must. Very friendly service, a lovely atmosphere, and generous portions that are very tasty.

Friendly service; one of the group didn't want a wrap but bread, which was no problem. The lactose-free food was deliciously prepared.

We held our wedding at Schovenhorst and what a great choice that was! Everything was perfectly taken care of, we had lovely contact with Doortje, and the food was delicious too! Thank you so much! We would recommend you to everyone!

Very friendly staff, the coffee was delicious!

Nice terrace, delicious snacks.

What a beautiful setting and great food

Nice place for lunch or a family celebration!

Beautiful brasserie, lovely location Reasonable prices and friendly staff

Beautiful place to get married! The service was well organized and the communication with wedding planner Doortje was very pleasant. Definitely recommended!

Beautiful location for weddings and parties. Definitely a fair-weather location. And friendly staff.

Pleasant atmosphere, good service. And the food was very good.

Busy but cozy. Good dishes, also suitable for sharing, tastyly prepared. Beautiful wooded surroundings.

We celebrated our wedding at De Werkstee and in the Brasserie. We had a fantastic day and enjoyed it immensely! Friendly staff, everything well organized. All in all, superb! Definitely recommended!

Top location for delicious food, parties, and weddings!

Nice to take a walk through the arboretum first and then have something to drink or eat. Lovely large, atmospheric terrace. Atmospheric inside as well. Very warm service. Excellent coffee, tea, and apple pie. Limited parking nearby, but plenty within walking distance through the park.

On May 2, 2026, we celebrated our love here—our wedding! What a day and what a beautiful location. We wanted a venue where we could enjoy ourselves in a relaxed setting with each other and our guests! That certainly happened. The location in the forest offers space and a lovely, convivial atmosphere. Naturally, we were very happy that the weather gods were on our side, allowing the ceremony, drinks, and dinner to take place outdoors. Communication with Doortje was excellent; she is always ready to help and, together with us, ensured that everything was well organized and coordinated. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful; compliments to the staff! The brasserie is perfectly suited for a spectacular party, and delicious finger food is served during the celebration as well. Our wedding was everything we hoped for, and we are still thoroughly enjoying the memories. Landgoed Schovenhorst will always remain a special place for us, and we will certainly return to relive beautiful memories and, who knows, perhaps celebrate our anniversary in the future. Many thanks to Doortje and all the staff at Schovenhorst. Your location is a gem! Cherish that.

What a beautiful place, and delicious food! Very suitable to combine with a walk in the woods.

Fantastic location, full of atmosphere. It is highly recommended to have lunch there.

Though the waiters where very good, wss the food a bit under my expectations... its good, like a 7.4 but nowhere near what I hoped

Surprisingly lovely spot, hidden among the greenery 🌿 Brasserie Schovenhorst feels a bit like accidentally discovering a well-kept secret. You don't park right in front of the door, but first have to walk a short distance through nature — about 500 meters from the Schovenhorst Estate car park — and that actually makes the arrival quite nice. As if lunch needs to be earned first. 🚶‍♀️ The brasserie is beautifully situated on the Schovenhorst Estate in Putten, right in the middle of the Veluwe, in a walled garden surrounded by lots of greenery. The estate is known for its arboretums, beautiful walking paths, and even a Forest Tower for those who want to be brave after lunch. 🌳 We were pleasantly surprised. A beautiful large terrace, a lovely courtyard, plenty of choice on the menu, and friendly service. Because the weather was beautiful, we had a lovely lunch outside 🍽️ In short: lovely brasserie, beautiful surroundings, relaxed atmosphere. A bit hidden, but that makes it extra fun. We would love to come back again. Tip: wear shoes that allow you to cover those few hundred meters from the parking lot without complaining. The reward awaits afterwards. 😉

We had a delicious meal and the staff were friendly. And all that in a lovely natural setting.

Fantastic spot in a wooded area. The service is nice and friendly. Extensive menu with delicious dishes and drinks! Highly recommended.

Top service. Friendly and welcoming.

Had a good afternoon and evening. Good service and social distancing at the Grace4Marriage seminar. Delicious food, beautiful location

It is very nice to go for a drink after a walk and/or a visit to the Bostoren. The people are very friendly and the value for money is also very good. It seems like a beautiful place to hold a wedding.

Nice service, but it was a meager charcuterie board. It didn't live up to the description and the meat was dried out. As if it were a board served with leftovers. Yuck!

Had a drink here on Easter Sunday after a long walk through the woods of Putten. Everything is closed in Putten on that day. Lovely in the garden. Friendly and fast service.

Had a delicious meal, beautiful surroundings.

There were four of us friends out for a day of walking and enjoying coffee and lunch. Since we couldn't choose from the various delicious cakes, the waitress suggested ordering one of each and sharing them. That was a great idea! To our surprise, we all received a platter with a combination of all the cakes, topped with a beautiful dollop of whipped cream in the middle. How delicious and what a great idea! The coffee and cake were delicious. We returned later in the afternoon for lunch. It was lovely sitting in the sun, with the same hospitable and friendly service as that morning. The lunch was very tasty and beautifully presented. During our lunch, the same waitress came to tell us that her work for the day was done; she was flying to a distant holiday destination that evening. What a warm and cozy atmosphere and place, thanks in part to the cordial staff! A place to come back to again!

Lovely spot in nature. Nice menu with plenty of choice. It was delightful. But partly due to the weather ☀️

Definitely a cozy brasserie. And you can organize many events there.

Always nice and for the first time, it was lovely sitting outside in the sunshine!

5 stars for the delicious elderflower mocktail on the sunny terrace!

We had a lovely time outside on the terrace with three friends. We'd reserved a table in advance. Our lunch included bread and an omelet with mushrooms and bacon.

The weather was perfect, so we could sit in the sunshine in a beautiful setting! The service was quick and friendly! We hadn't made a reservation, but luckily there was a table available for a large group.

Highly recommended to stay here. Helpful staff and good service.

Parking lot in the middle of the forest with a dark path to and from the restaurant. Not safe.

Had a delicious meal, local beer, super friendly service. Suitable for both meat eaters and vegans.

Cozy location. Beautifully situated in the woods. Great atmosphere and a delicious lunch!

With friendly people, a great staff, and a beautiful wooded setting. The food is prepared and served with love.

On May 23, 2025, we had our wedding at Schovenhorst Estate. It was exactly what we envisioned: an outdoor wedding surrounded by nature, surrounded by all our loved ones. Everything was perfectly organized. We discussed everything in advance, first with Marloes, and then Doortje took over seamlessly. Communication was clear, and nothing was too much trouble. They also acted quickly on the day itself when we unfortunately couldn't have our ceremony outdoors in the woods due to the bad weather. You couldn't wish for a more beautiful setting. Schovenhorst is like something out of a fairytale; it's so beautiful. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Thanks in part to them, our day was perfect. Thanks again, team Schovenhorst!

During our drive through the Veluwe, we stopped here for a delicious mulled wine and a cup of coffee with a treat. The location is truly fantastic, a hidden gem.

We always love coming here. The staff is very friendly and the food always hits the spot!

We had a fantastic family Christmas party at the Werkstee, part of the Brasserie! Delicious food, great service, and a wonderful atmosphere!

We had Christmas brunch here this afternoon. The food was incredibly delicious and we were offered a wide variety. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Even though our son was struggling, they even wrapped our dessert for us. Highly recommended!

Top location, in the middle of the forest. With excellent cuisine and exceptionally friendly service.

I've been here several times this week and I'm very satisfied. I found the specialty coffee a bit pricey for what you get, but the rest of the products are definitely worth the money. Highly recommended: try the Mediterranean roll with caramelized goat cheese. I don't really like goat cheese (or so I thought), but it sounded so delicious on the menu that I thought, just try it! Well, I've rarely had something this delicious; it goes perfectly with the beets, and the crunchy caramel topping makes it perfect. What a flavor explosion! So good that I went back later this week. The team is also very friendly and polite. If I'm ever in the area again, I know where I'll be eating. Beautiful surroundings, too! Thanks!

We celebrated Grandma's 80th birthday with a high tea at Brasseie Schovenhorst with 12 people. The brasserie itself has beautiful windows overlooking the garden, but they've erected a large, dark, black tent in front of them to accommodate more people. This turns the brasserie into a dark hole with little natural light, and from the outside, the venue looks like a military encampment or a scout camp. Such a shame! This greatly increases the capacity, but it also makes it a massive, commercial affair. Inside the brasserie, we were seated at a long table in the middle of the room. The acoustics are very noisy and restless, making it difficult to hear the person across the table. This wasn't very convenient for our family and Grandma. Two days earlier, I had sent an email asking if we could be placed off to the side or in a separate room. We were told they couldn't promise anything but would do their best. That morning, I called the brasserie again. I spoke to staff on the phone who told me, clearly and curtly, that the brasserie was fully booked, everything was set up, and nothing could be changed. One of our family members had already attended this high tea a month earlier. The quality was noticeably lower this time. The tomato soup was served in small, Duralex HEMA water glasses. Not festive. The sandwiches were fine, but basic and quite large. The month before, they had been more like small, savory snacks. We had to ask for a pot of water for tea several times. The staff was very busy. The entire location is far too full, too crowded, too massive, and too commercial. The fact that there are only two toilets for women also indicates that this building wasn't originally designed for so many people. The woods surrounding the brasserie were also overflowing on Sunday afternoon. Parking was no longer available in the parking lot.

A beautiful location perfect for a wedding, with a ceremony in the woods, birdsong, specialty beers from Putten, and delicious food. We had a truly fantastic day and can highly recommend Schovenhorst!

Nice place, delicious coffee, I like to come there after a walk

Nice place to enjoy good food and friendly staff after a lovely walk in the forest.

Super-friendly service, beautiful location, and simply good food. The only downside is the barking of the many dogs on the patio.

We recently celebrated our wedding here. Everything was perfectly arranged, as agreed. The quality of the food was excellent. We were fortunate to have a sunny day. What ultimately exceeded our expectations was the staff's enthusiasm and service. We had a wonderful time, and so did our guests.

What a wonderful place for lunch! Lovely terrace overlooking a beautiful garden. Very friendly, cheerful staff, and excellent service. I had the toasted sandwich with Parma ham, brie, and fig chutney. Delicious! The menu offers a variety of interesting and delicious dishes. Highly recommended.

In May 2025, we got married at this beautiful forest location. It felt right from the start: the location, the atmosphere, the communication. There are plenty of options for how to design your wedding, allowing us to tailor it entirely to your wishes. Our contact person (Marloes) was easily accessible and always helpful in finding options and additions when we had questions. Just before the wedding, we changed contact persons, but this was also clearly communicated and went very smoothly. Everything was thoroughly discussed and carried out as agreed, but they were also flexible when needed. During the wedding, the staff wasn't overly obtrusive, but they were there to help and take care of everything for us. The food was also excellent, and we received many compliments about it. We are very happy with our choice to get married at Brasserie Schovenhorst and would definitely recommend this wedding venue for both the location and the communication during the preparations!

Had lunch yesterday. You have to allow plenty of time for lunch. Had lunch yesterday. Drinks arrived very quickly. Then we had to wait a long time for our order to be taken. Even after asking, it took a long time. The waitress was busy chatting with two men. Then, after ordering, we had to wait another long time. We then asked if they had forgotten us. The lunch was delicious, but the service yesterday was really poor.

A lovely spot for lunch in the middle of the woods with a beautiful garden. The staff is friendly and the menu is varied. The interior isn't too large, but it's cozy. There's a spacious terrace. We started with truffle fries and nachos. A good choice, very tasty! We then opted for a 12-o'clock snack (fine, but instead of regular sandwiches, something like farmhouse bread would be a bit tastier), a goat cheese toastie (a bit dry), a Parma ham/brie toastie (delicious), and a children's menu with fries and a frikandel (fine). Definitely a nice place to go.

Cozy terrace in a courtyard. Excellent lunch, cafe-style. Overworked staff. They tried their best, but were too tired.

Delicious food, incredibly friendly service. If you're in the area, definitely go here for lunch. We had tapas...just too good...excellent.

We celebrated our wedding at this beautiful location in the middle of the woods! The atmosphere was fantastic, the venue was beautifully decorated, and the service and assistance were excellent. It was the perfect day for us, and we highly recommend it!

Beautiful place in the middle of the forest, friendly service, delicious food for a good price!

On June 28, 2025, we had our wedding at Schovenhorst Estate. A beautiful location to celebrate your wedding. The ceremony and dinner were held at the Werkstee (workshop). The party was in the Brasserie. The food was delicious, and we had a large BBQ. Everything was perfectly organized. We discussed everything with Doortje beforehand so that everything was perfectly arranged on the day itself. A fantastic location in the woods.

We got married on May 20, 2025, at the most beautiful location in the middle of the woods. After visiting several venues, I knew deep down that this was where I wanted to get married. The surroundings and the venue itself are stunning. Everything on the day was perfectly taken care of, including the preparations. We are grateful to you for our beautiful day.

Fantastic place for lunch after a walk in the woods around Putten. The staff is very friendly, and the lunch portions are generous! I had a carpaccio on Mediterranean bread (with lots of delicious olives, pine nuts, sun-dried tomatoes, salad, and much more!). It was a surprise what I would find on my bread. My friend had a generously filled omelet with wild mushrooms, onions, bacon, etc. We had a delicious meal on a beautiful terrace. Afterwards, we admired the large trees just behind the brasserie. Highly recommended!

We were there for a wedding. Super beautiful and atmospheric location. Well organized and friendly staff.

Tasty food and beautiful location. Friendly service

Lovely spot in the middle of the forest! Very friendly and competent staff with that little bit extra! Food was quick and deliciously eaten

Een heerlijke lunch werd gepresenteerd. Omdat we met meer jonge kinderen zijn, is het hier niet voor geschikt. Geen speelwerktuigen. Dat viel ons erg tegen

Easily accessible restaurant and large terrace on Landgoed Schovenhorst, with large parasols and enough space between the tables. This is a great place to stay on a sunny day and therefore a popular stop for cyclists and hikers. Enjoyed the good coffee and had a delicious lunch. Everything was served quickly and a very friendly service.

Experience with delivery of rented items at Brasserie Schovenhorst We recently rented items to a customer who celebrated their wedding at Brasserie Schovenhorst. The location itself is beautiful. On Friday, June 6, we delivered the rented materials. The employees who received us were friendly and helpful. We spoke to a male employee, probably the manager. He indicated that there was also a party planned for Saturday and asked us to pick up the items before 10:30. Saturday morning we arrived at 10:07, after a drive of over an hour. Upon arrival, we asked a young waitress where our items from the previous day were. She immediately referred to two crates. When we asked why the items had not been neatly placed together, the manager (male) came over. His explanation was that some items, including six white chair covers, would otherwise get wet. The manager then started rummaging through our crates without consulting us and claimed that one of the covers belonged to them. I indicated that this cover was new and belonged to us. The incident felt unpleasant as if we as “outsiders” would take something that was not ours. When I expressed my indignation, he indicated that he did not understand why I was angry. In our eyes it would have been polite to keep all the stuff together, especially since there were multiple suppliers. We then asked where the rest of our stuff was. The waitress pointed to a room next door. It turned out that our other materials had been placed outside, despite the heavy rain on June 7. Some items (including MDF) should not get wet. Much of it was soaked and damaged. Any reasonable person knows that you should not place wood (MDF) outside in a humid environment, but even then everyone knows that you should not place items when it was raining or had rained, especially if they are rented or borrowed items. They are not your property. When we asked who was responsible for this, the manager indicated that this was the responsibility of the master of ceremonies. According to him, the items had to be picked up at 9:00. They need space. However, the information we received from the staff on Friday was that picking up before 10:30 was sufficient. We then contacted the master of ceremonies, who in turn put the responsibility back on the location. Whoever is ultimately responsible: this is not how you treat someone else's belongings. Advice to future bridal couples: be alert at this location and make sure you work with a master of ceremonies who communicates well and takes responsibility. And to the management of Brasserie Schovenhorst: a little self-reflection would not hurt. Take more responsibility for items from external suppliers, just as you would want others to treat your property. Hopefully both parties can learn from this.

Beautiful location. But price quality is not right. For example the goat cheese salad, (18.50) lettuce almost impossible to find, 3 nuts. And then just bread instead of fresh. Small coffee cups. 12 o'clock (16.50) too expensive for what you get. Tuna salad mediocre in quality. Too bad. Previously used to better quality.

Perfect natural wedding location with a lot of experience. Even with bad weather a beautiful and intimate location. Good food, friendly staff and a magical atmosphere.

One of our favorite places for coffee and something tasty with lunch. Beautiful place on a beautiful estate. Nice people who work here

Lekkere plek in het bos. Mooi terras buiten. Ook binnen kan je gezellig zitten. Lekkere hert biertjes van de tap. Parkeren kan iets verderop in het bos, dan is het 500 m lopen naar de brasserie.

The apple pie was delicious!! Nice and cozy brasserie. Friendly staff
