Restaurant-café Van den Hogen in Wijk 02 Volendam

Fast service and very attentive,

This restaurant is delicious. The lobster soup is a must.

Friendly service attitude English available Fried fish meal, crayfish tomato soup

Great establishment, the decoration draws the eye to the history and culture of this region of the Netherlands. The Service is very attentive, several local beers are available, the dishes are excellent and plentiful. The hotel room with a view of the Markemeer is relaxing. Special mention "for Ketjes" Hij is top!!

We had the pleasure of visiting this wonderful seafood restaurant overlooking the river, located in the most beautiful spot in the Fishermen’s Village. It was an exceptional experience in every way. The setting is elegant, peaceful, and perfect for enjoying a relaxing meal amidst stunning natural views. Every dish we tried was exquisite and full of flavor. The seafood is fresh and prepared with great care, offering a wide variety that caters to all tastes. The service was excellent, and the staff were extremely friendly and welcoming, always making sure guests are comfortable and satisfied. The restaurant also provides all the necessary amenities, including spacious and clean restrooms, and is well-equipped for people with disabilities—there’s even a wheelchair available. Simply put, it was a memorable experience, and I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the Fishermen’s Village.

We came to Volendam to get some fresh seafood for lunch and sure, we are not disappointed. The fish and the prawns are fresh and great! We are also pleasantly surprised that the staff gave my kids some activity books to keep them engaged while we await for the dishes.

We bestelden kibbeling met friet. Op mijn vraag wat voor vis het was kreeg ik een onduidelijk antwoord. De kibbeling was slap en niet echt lekker, de friet was goed en de salade ook maar dat was een mini portie. Toen ik tegen de serveerster zei dat de kibbeling tegen viel was haar antwoord, ‘wat raar zeg, iedereen vind hem altijd heerlijk ‘ Dat was eens maar nooit weer.

Pleasant atmosphere. Courteous service. Few options on the menu, but the two dishes we ordered were delicious. Small quantity. Worth it.

Both the restaurant and the rooms were fine for us. Great value for money for the location.

Fair price snack or meal as well as drinks beautiful view of the port. Waitress not very pleasant.

Prachtige locatie met vaste hoge kwaliteit eten en gemoedelijke sfeer. Verse producten worden gebruikt en dat proef je ook. Oud Hollands met potjes en pannetjes, het wordt vanzelf weer origineel.

Nonostante il posto sia molto turistico consiglio questo ristorante. Ha piatti di pesce molto buoni, abbondanti. Zuppa buonissima di pesce!! Da prendere Costo onesto ma con qualità di cibo ottima.

Eating literally took an hour! Food was greasy

Good food, terrible treatment, you can't get up at all, they take full plates and drinks off the table.

It's been a long time since I had such a good meal in a restaurant. Both main course and dessert! Good staff who help you friendly.

The ribs were extremely tasty 😋

Good place for lunch. I had a delicious shrimp and crab soup.

Delicious food, great service, great service!

We were here for lunch as a tour and team. Especially the soup was very good, other dishes, appetizers and desserts were also good. The service was successful.

Very good food, friendly staff and wonderful location, facing the sea.

Het restaurant is gelegen midden in het toeristische deel van Volendam. Wellicht spreekt het de toerist aan, maar het wat gedateerde interieur, maar voornamelijk het veel te dure eten ten opzichte van je op je bord krijgt - hoeveelheid en kwaliteit, viel tegen. €40,00 voor een hoofdgerecht is echt te gek voor woorden…. Geprobeerd, maar zal het nooit meer doen! De bediening pas prettig en attent.

Vriendelijk en warm ontvangen in een gezellig kader. Royale porties die prijs kwaliteit zijn. Wij hebben genoten van de kippenschnitzel en hamburger. Die werden geserveerd met warme groentjes, frietjes, gebakken aardappeltjes en sausjes. Voor herhaling vatbaar!

This restaurant is racist! I was waiting there for 20 mins and no one went to me to ask for my order. I would never go back to this place ever! I have never experienced racism and discrimination in any other country I’ve visited! All the more a single restaurant?!

An excellent Cafe-Restaurant that combines the warmth of its atmosphere, the friendly and respectful service of the hosts; and the quality and delicious flavor of their meals. To that we must add the surroundings of the magnificent city of Volendam, which guarantees a unique and complete experience. SAFETY PIN!!!

Just not treated properly We wanted to sit at a table with 6 people and a wheelchair, of course we wanted to sit together, she already came storming out, which was the intention, and she put everything back and we had to sit apart from each other, in the end we with 6 people and a wheelchair, we sat at 2 very small tables.

Unfortunately you have to give 1 star. The store doesn't deserve a star.

Splendido bar e ristorante nella darsena di Volendam. Allestimento tipico e servizio molto attento ed efficace. Tra i vari piatti a menù consiglio certamente il Fish and Chips. Costo non elevato. Fatevi una passeggiata nella darsena al termine del pranzo. Volendam è bellissima

Top restaurant, good food, great service and a super cozy atmosphere

One of the best steak and ribs I’ve ever had. We were in a rush and asked for speedy service. We couldn’t fault anything. Food was out in mins and yet of the best quality. Loved every bit of it. Grateful to the kind lady who served us.

I rarely give all 5 stars but this was a unique experience Visited Volendam on a holiday tour and found this restaurant We had a few minutes till the tour bus would depart but we had to get food The service was great, quick, the food was amazing and the price was fair I highly recommend this restaurant if you are in volendam

If you are in any kind of tour, beware, food takes forever!

Just had .tournedo on November 4 for almost €40. Well if he was 75 grams I think more like 50 grams. Ridiculous amount for this . Never here again

Food quite disappointing: you come to a small fisher village expecting to find exceptional grilled fish and end up eating sort of fried fillets… with chips fried in used oil. Never will be back. At least, good attention to allergy of our kid

We had a nice meal there. However, it was a great pity that our tenderloin did not have the desired cuisson that we requested. We asked for between the two but got it fully cooked. Our meat and fish were also not really warm. All this reported. But nothing was really done with it. Shame.

Very cozy restaurant, good food, friendly service. Super!

Everything was great, excellent ribs, fries, sauces and the best Hertog Jan Prestige. Decent prices.

Great service. All the staff were welcoming. Food was great and plentiful. We had the grilled seabass and shrimp on pasta (too creamy for me) and 1kg spicy boiled mussels. It included salad with a nice dressing, vegetable, fries, potatoes and bread. So much food, Too much for two . Overall great atmosphere, lovely place and tasty food.

We have been coming there for years, the food is very good and the service is top notch

Very bad service and food! Better not to go…

The specialty cuisine of the small fishing village. The business is very good. The food is fresh and delicious. The location has beautiful scenery. It is a good restaurant worth recommending.

very tasty food, quick service and friendly staff

Unacceptable. Be careful. If they think you are a tourist then they give you an expensive and poor menu without even asking. Then a small group of Dutch people arrives and they give them a different menu, full of dishes. We asked and they said is the same menu but one of the waiters said that it is of course different. DISCRIMINATION

We had a fantastic time at Van den Hogen! There were four of us, and we shared a variety of seafood plates, which was more than enough for everyone. The seafood was super fresh, with lots of delicious options to choose from. The portions were just right, and the staff were lovely—friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even better. If you’re looking for fresh seafood in a relaxed setting, definitely give this place a try! Thank you 😊

Top restaurant with great service and great staff! A big 10!

Very good restaurant! Staff is friendly and what you get on your plate is more than good... top address! 👌🏼😁😉☀️💦⚓️🛟⛴️

Unfortunately, the food didn't convince me. The fried fish was rather bland in taste and I missed a lemon to freshen it up. I also found the portions a bit “sparse” for the price. The fries could have used more salt (I had to add more salt), and the remoulade or sauce wasn't really a hit for my taste, especially since it was mayonnaise-based, which doesn't quite suit my preferences. Maybe it's common in the Netherlands to serve fish with remoulade, but unfortunately it wasn't for me personally. If the other guests like it, that's of course completely fine, but unfortunately I wasn't convinced. I give it a plus point for the ambience and the view, so it gets 3 stars…

Restaurants on the shore sit under the awning A beer (non-alcoholic) A big pot of mussels What a treat Mussels use fennel, celery and onions Carrots, wine, cooked until there is no oil Light and delicious

Very long wait and forgot our table several times

Came in with a medium sized group for a bite to eat. Main course was decent. Dessert (dame blanche) was very poor. Service... Young host did his best and was cheerful, but there was also an old host walking around. What a jerk that was. To the point of rudeness. Food was delivered in parts. We were spread over several tables. While one table had already finished eating, our table just sat there waiting and waiting. Dessert was completely outrageous. Had to wait over 40 minutes for 4 ice cream desserts. While the rest was ready a long time ago. Ball tent

PERFECT!! My staff was really nice. The dish tasted excellent!!! I sat outside and it was a wonderful choice!! :) Thank u for giving a good impression of Volendam to me.

The food was OK! The staff was not nice, it is nice restaurant

€60 for two: 1 plate of mussels (not very tasty but not bad either), served with panel, chips and sauces and 1 decent sandwich (called club sandwich). With a dessert, 1 glass of wine and 2 beers. Convenient to be able to book on the fork, they have seats for newborns. The view of the lake is beautiful, if I were passing through it would be ok to stop but I wouldn't go back on purpose.

The employee's behavior was very bad. She expelled us all with the glory that one young person took an order from abroad and we were three wanting to order from her. She said no and asked for us to leave 😵‍💫

Very friendly service by all the staff. Food served in a timely manner and of fine quality. Quality -price is good. Definitely recommended . We had fish and mixed grill. Even the chicken nuggets were good quality (real chicken). Try it... Go for it!!

Delicious food! And the service is really great! Plenty of choice of restaurants in the port of Volendam. But we can really recommend this one. Service is really of paramount importance here. You really feel like a guest. Person cheerful and up for a joke. Food is super tasty. Large portions, neatly laid out plates, lots of accompaniments and delicious taste! The day specials are also recommended.

Generally delicious, slightly oily, with a moist skin

Recommendable. Delicious fish. Good service

Terribe service. Wait for more than 30 mins but no food and no sign of food coming. Poor staff

We visited the restaurant on July 30, 2024 to eat fish and mussels. We thought it was excellent. My wife and our daughter enjoyed the smoked eel. The mussels were exceptional, our daughter's burger was equally successful and the kibbling was a dream. Luckily we had made a reservation, which also worked perfectly and got a table at the front with a view of the small harbor. The service was very accommodating, only we had to wait a while until drinks and food were at the table.

Nice hotel and cozy terrace. Simple clean room with a view of the Markermeer. Very friendly and helpful staff. Informal atmosphere. Food was perfect and plenty of it. What you don't expect in the evening / at night in a tourist street that it was quiet! We had a great time there for 3 days. Maybe a tip... keep the door to the hotel clear. People also put all kinds of things on the steps to the entrance/exit of the hotel.

Loaded on the bay offers a nice view. I enjoyed the fish and chips. The cod was not over battered, and was fresh and flavorful. Great spot to take a break.

Ubicación excelente en el paseo marítimo de Marken. Comida decente a precios razonables para el país. Servicio bueno.

Lovely seafront restaurant with very reasonably priced drinks and a range of traditional dishes. Great ambiance!

Decent food and reasonable prices in a great location.

Friendly employees, really tasty food in a friendly atmosphere..

Super tasty food, with a very nice team. Tomorrow we're going to eat there again. Highly recommended 👍👍👍

Super Service, tolle Getränke. Die Preise könnten etwas billiger sein. Auch Deutsch wird verstanden. Ist zu empfehlen.

Served by a polite young man but the owners attitude was really poor. The food was okay. I wouldn’t choose to go back there.

's Avonds geweest eten. Gezellig buiten op het terras in de zon gezeten. De verschillende gerechten vielen goed in de smaak. Erg vriendelijk personeel.

Recommended place to eat in the town. Fried fish and sea bass very acceptable. It's not great, but they have good service and a perfect location. A little expensive for the size of the portions, but overall everything was good.

We had lunch here and I have to say...... The best fish in Holland. Simply delicious 🫶

Best fish restaurant in Holland

Dining at Van den Hogen was exceptional, thanks to our server, Dylan. He welcomed us warmly, provided excellent menu recommendations, and ensured we had everything we needed without being intrusive. His professionalism and friendly attitude greatly enhanced our experience. If you visit, I highly recommend requesting Dylan as your server. Five stars for Dylan!

This unique restaurant in the little unique town of Volendam, is really good, we have lunch here, the sea food it was very good and feel fresh, nothing gourmet Ty traditional flavor but really good, the service is little slow be aware of that if you are on time schedule.

The service was excellent and the food was delicious. Definitely worth repeating.

At first I thought the fish fillet was okay, but when I ate it out I realized it was quite crispy here. Other side dishes were just so-so.

Excellent service, good fish, would HIGHLY recommend the Apple pie and ice-cream best I’ve had so far 👌

Despite being very touristic, located on the front line, the quality of the products is good. Acceptable price. They accept groups with a reservation. Friendly staff

Very good restaurant good memory

Delicious food in an authentic restaurant. Friendly service.

This restaurant on the quay of Volendam was very good. Had delicious mussels here with thick fries and baguette with herb butter. The tenderloin with pepper sauce with fried potatoes and red cabbage was also superb. This company is run by real Volendam residents and are very attentive and friendly.

Delicious food, what a super cozy restaurant! Nice service. And clean!

Nice place and the staff was pleasant however I got food poisoning from a piece of salmon that I ate here. I’m sure that it’s an anomaly but it was definitely from this restaurant. Within 120 minutes I was in bad shape throwing up violently. My wife felt pretty rough after the salmon as well but not as bad. Otherwise the food here looks really good.

It was a very nice environment. The working ladies were very friendly and polite. We tried fish and cheaps and hamburgers, they were very successful and delicious. The prices were reasonable.

The service is excellent, nice and very helpful employees. The meals are delicious! Good atmosphere. Absolutely recommended. “the group of French people”

Cycled a bit to Volendam. Had a delicious lunch at Restaurant-café van den Hogen. We had a great spot in front of the door on the terrace in the sun. Nice people watching. The food and beers tasted great. Service smooth and nice. I will definitely come back here again.

We stayed at the hotel and dined at the restaurant. Everything was delicious.

The fish steak is delicious and cooked just right

Nice and cozy hotel, delicious food and nice and quick service.

Lousy waiters and bad attitude from the owner. I would not repeat it again, everything is very expensive for what it is!!!

(I was here a few months ago)Weak fish fillets as kibbeling? So dirty. Next time I'll go further down the dike, at least there they have real bickering, that was once but never again

We arrived by boat in Volendam with the tour operator "Tour and tickets" and chose this restaurant to avoid the crowds of the one who is in partnership with the agency. Well, we were not disappointed at all: the fish and chips as well as the shrimp were very fresh and tasty, the ribs very good and plentiful. The prices are more reasonable than in Amsterdam. We recommend Vivier this address!

It seemed like a very native place, full of locals and with typical dishes from the area. For me it is a good recommendation to get to know the gastronomic culture of the area.

Actually this is the best of the lot. Price also a bit cheaper compared to other restaurants on the strip. Slightly less crowd due to obstructed seaview.

Good-looking food, good-looking people

Nice restaurant, we ate very well, the fish and chips, delicious, delicious. Very attentive waiters

Goede service en heel lekker eten.

Fijne.mensen en erg lekker eten.

A nice place for seafood. Like all the dishes we ordered, especially the mussels. The service was great too. Had requested to expedite our order, and the waiter was really helpful.
