Strandpaviljoen De Kust in Wijk aan Zee

We are really bothered by birds

By far the best beach pavilion within a 30 km radius.

You want to have a nice lunch and order a crispy chicken sandwich. It lists 'mango chutney' and 2 other ingredients. You can picture it already. Mmmh... You get a bun with pieces of mango on which the sliced ​​schnitzel (just taken off a chicken burger) rests. If I had wanted pieces of fruit, I would have ordered a fruit salad. The fact that it isn't mentioned on the menu is a peculiar surprise that you weren't expecting. Those large chunks of mango are no substitute for chutney. We just had to make do with this sandwich. You see a decent slice of rustic brown bread lying there and you think: "What on earth did they dump on you!?" What you expect it to be, and what is promised on the menu, is therefore nowhere to be found. And the abundant salad to compensate is simply disappointing. Otherwise, a fine shop, although the couch looked like it had just been picked up from Marketplace after 25 years of use. Lots of potential! But therefore also lots of room for growth.

Nice beach bar with enthusiastic staff and tasty products.

Nice place with a good view and friendly staff!

Very friendly service from Milou! The food was tasty and the service was good; for a Mother's Day evening, but also just for a casual night out, definitely recommended!

Nice beach pavilion, but there is nothing more to say about it.

We had a delicious meal here a few days ago. I had the vegetarian burger and it was very good. It is a beautiful location on the beach. We were served incredibly well by Mees; he was very spontaneous and we laughed a lot with him, which made the experience even more enjoyable. We will definitely be back again.

Good, friendly service and good food. Beautifully presented, fresh ingredients.

Had a delicious meal with a beautiful view. Friendly staff in the restaurant.

Cozy beach pavilion, nice and quiet and atmospheric. Very friendly service! Great that all burgers can also be vegetarian.

Great place. We had a delicious meal there.

Great atmosphere with a good view of the sea.

Great beach pavilion with very friendly service and good food.

Excellent cuisine, all in this beautiful location. Compliments, highly recommended!

We ate today after a family visit to Heliomare. We had the fried salmon, kibbeling (cod), crispy chicken burger, and a salmon poke bowl. I give the fried salmon a 10, a very large, super tender piece, delicious fries, sauce, and vegetables. My partner gives the kibbeling an 8. Tasty batter, tender fish, delicious sauce. My son said the burger was the best he's ever had (I do think it's a bit pricey), but he gives it a 9. The salmon poke bowl wasn't bad, but not up to the standard of Dadaman, where we eat weekly, and my other son gives it a 6. Service was fast and good, prices reasonable (except for the burger), and drink prices were okay. We'll definitely go back if we're in the area. You can't go wrong here. Top-notch place.

Very good food and certainly enough and fresh.

Great restaurant with delicious food! Beautiful view right on the beach :)

Very, very friendly and pleasant welcome and service👍. The food was really good and the produce was fresh. Blankets were available with the evening air, even though the terrace was well sheltered. Nothing wrong with it. Truly great!

This is a great spot after an early morning walk. They open on time. A relaxed atmosphere. Friendly and efficient service. Parking is nearby and free. Easy to find via Google Maps.

Wonderful place - the essence of the Netherlands as far me. Good food, but prices for tourists.

We had dinner here three times. There's a beautiful view of the sea. The service was always friendly. The prices are reasonable.

The coffee they serve is excellent. I also had a delicious healthy sandwich there. All excellent.

Delicious, fresh dishes and cakes. The outdoor terrace is very cozy and sheltered from the wind...and wheelchair accessible! You can access it via a few steps or a ramp; the paved beach path runs in front of the restaurant. We saw many guests with wheelchairs, etc., which was nice to see. Friendly and efficient staff. A delicious restaurant that's accessible to everyone.❤️

They serve a great breakfast here in the morning. The service is very friendly (often English-speaking).

Mediocre beach bar. Fine for a drink. Skip the kitchen. They even manage to screw up a bouncer.

We had a great meal and drinks at this beach bar. Spareribs and fries were delicious. We thought the price of €24.00 was reasonable but the portions of spareribs were really small. That's why we took one star off. Otherwise we had a great time.

Delicious frozen icecoffee and nice 12 o'clock. Nice ambiance right on the beach

What a great restaurant with a super beautiful view over the sea! The staff is incredibly friendly, especially Pedro who always helps you perfectly with choosing a meal and provides excellent service. The food is delicious every time - highly recommended! Olga and Vadim

Nice location and a beautiful view of the beach. Unfortunately, the service was a bit slow, even though it wasn't busy. Don't drink red wine here; I haven't had such a bad Merlot in years.

A truly beautiful restaurant with friendly and attentive staff. We were particularly impressed by the magnificent view—a real highlight of the meal! The prices are a bit higher, probably due to the exclusive location, but overall, the value for money is good. The food was very tasty and freshly prepared. A quick tip: It's best to sit inside, as there are lots of birds outside that can be a nuisance at your table. Otherwise, a very enjoyable visit.

Beautiful beach pavilion with modern, attractive interiors. The terrace offers good wind protection. Very friendly and prompt service. All positives. On the downside, the apple pie is small and round with a crumb topping, very sweet, and contains little apple. The whipped cream comes from a spray can. If I'm going to indulge in unnecessary calories, it has to be worth it in terms of taste; here, I regretted the expense.

I highly recommend Strandpaviljoen De Kust. I spent a week there with my daughter in May, and it was truly beautiful! We loved the view and will be back!

This restaurant should not be posted by Google as a ready-to-eat location. This location should not be able to be awarded with any stars nor should it be posted because foreign customers are not well received they are not served the staff is of bad quality they could not serve dinner in 1.40 minutes and that explanation they stated that they are not MC Donald they served drinks and after 1 hour and 40 min dinner was not served when the tip was requested for the drinks served they wanted to receive the money for the dinner they did not have serve her Attention foreign tourists, do not go to this location, you will not be well received. I do not know and did not want to know the management of this location for a complaint, but if these are the employees who are the first to contact the customers, the opinion about the management of the location is formed and cannot be spoken. Pathetic. Do not go to this location👎

As tourists, avoid this (so-called local) service is deplorable compared to foreign tourists. Nothing can be said about the food because after an hour and 30 min. the ordered food did not come. I want to specify that drinks, soups, shrimps, Blake August were ordered.. diverse food, a payment bill that reached approx. 200 euros. All local customers were served, we as foreign tourists no. they requested to pay for the ordered meal that was not served. after I informed them that we only pay for the consumption of the drinks served, they came from the kitchen to say that the meal is ready. AVOID..AVOID..AVOID

Good restaurant, the salmon and pasta bolognese were tasty.

Delicious burgers and kibbles. Large and good portion right on the beach. Only the service needs improvement

One star for the location. We sat outside and could have waited forever for someone to serve us. There were three waiters who weren't always busy. We drew attention to ourselves several times, but the others were served. At some point we had enough and went to the competition. Never again.

Really good restaurant or beach bar, delicious food, kibbeling on a new level, the location is very attractively designed and speaks for itself. The service staff is very friendly and helpful... go there and get a picture...

Great tent! Food is better than expected. You can taste that a lot of fresh products are used. Kibbeling and spare ribs were recommended as a specialty and are actually delicious. Service friendly and hospitable

Great beach cafe with drinks and food, even in the evening. Comfortably furnished. On March 31st, the stove was still working and it was warm inside. There are nooks protected from the wind on the terrace. Just great!

Now in 2025 a 13 in a dozen beach bar without soul or personality.

Nice meal. Not reserved but still had to wait a short time for a table. Nice service.

Rude service not customer friendly. Definitely don't go there!

Everything fine. Very good. 👍Friendly service.

Cozy pavilion on the Heemskerk beach. With friendly staff and real village character.

Sat on the terrace for 20 minutes. Not a single look from the gentleman serving. (Dark/gray with separation. We left after 20 minutes. Too bad

The food was tasty, but not much and the place is beautiful, but the service was so uninterested...that's it

Lots of waste. With every order you automatically receive a glass of lettuce (sauce on the bottom). Hardly anyone ate it. Many glasses go straight into the trash without being touched. Very shame! Maybe an idea to only serve when requested?

Super nice Little things to eat perfect and not overpriced

This food is amazing!!! Most definitely the best restaurant around and the latte caramel is super amazing too!!! amazing!!!

About the bad reviews.... Apparently you can't do it right for everyone, despite your best efforts. We ate there twice and you get a delicious meal for a good price. Not all the staff speaks Dutch, but they do speak good and understandable English, and they are all very friendly. The 2nd time we ate there something went wrong in the kitchen. The children's dinner was late. But that was resolved well. Mistakes are made, how it is resolved is more important. As far as we are concerned, 6 stars instead of 5!!

Nice staff and delicious food, the best beach pavilion in Wijk aan Zee.

A few days on the coast of Wijk aan Zee and a delicious meal every evening at this beach pavilion. We do not make reservations, so patience is required. But you certainly get value for your money. Fresh ingredients, cool beer and friendly service.

Service poor, food was tasty, but the Caesar salad was wrong. Iceberg lettuce, no anchovies and it had radish and celery in it? The next day I was glued to the porcelain throne...

The fries and the eggrolls were super tasty.However, it takes a really long time before you get your food (even when it's not crowded) and it is quite expensive as well (€8 for a portion of mini eggrolls. We got 7 for that price). We also got too little sauce for how much we paid...

Had delicious salmon and satay here. Nice location and staff is very friendly

We have been enjoying your fries at the kiosk for years. Only the portions are getting smaller. Shame.

They made us wait an hour. Our order was not communicated correctly by the waiter. staff does not speak Dutch but very bad English. Huge cookie bakers!

We stopped for a moment because we were soaking wet in the rain. But immediately ate and drank something. Friendly service, good fries and vegan bitterballen and vegan mayo👍🏻

Very impressed with the kitchen!

No sir, lunch will be available in 4 minutes. Well. Then you don't understand.... The rest was ok.

It's a nice spot for family. From Air bnb it was easily accessible

Very tasty food and friendly staff. The ambiance is very harmonious and pleasant.

It's like in a story from which you don't want to wake up. A feeling of joy, peace and the feeling of summer. Everything is as it should be for a dream holiday.. amazing 🤩

What poor service. After waiting for half an hour on a terrace that was not busy at all, I walked inside to ask if I could order at the bar, which was not possible, when I indicated that we had been waiting for a long time, then I received an arrogant look with an answer "well, that's a shame." I was quite shocked. Never experienced this before. Tip: put some energy into training staff. We'll never come here again.

Terrace service is aimed at young people. Elderly people can wait half an hour for service here. #agediscrimination

Very tasty, great burgers, great spot to sit right by the sea, nice people.

Unmotivated staff, expensive. But the food is good.

Nice case, but I was simply not helped and left after 30 minutes

Lovely seating, good friendly staff, just cozy

One Dutch Burger and one Kibbeling, very tasty 😋

A normal and good beach stall, service and food great and of course right on the beach.

After the sunset, I had a hot chocolate with whipped cream and an espresso here with my group. We really enjoyed our drinks on the terrace and especially the good service and hospitality of Mees! Very attentive and very friendly. We left with a big smile and will definitely come back again! Mees, thank you very much for the service and the nice conversation! Keep it up!

Delicious food, nice staff and beautiful place!

Nice restaurant right on the beach Price/performance is good. Portions are plentiful and delicious 🤗

This afternoon I had lunch there. I thought I would eat a delicious sandwich with ham, Beemster cheese and a dip as on the menu. When ordering, it was already said that the ham was gone... okay. But what did I get, a cheese sandwich, nothing else, a small salad or anything like decoration costs €7.50. Crazy. Complained when paying. They said you had a vegan sandwich. Once and never again. It's that you have to give at least 1 star

Great atmosphere, delicious food We felt very comfortable

Pleasant to sit in, friendly service and delicious soup

Cozy tent on the beach, good food.

Watery capuccino served by ragged young man with a mop and a bottle of disinfectant spray in his hand, who neither greets nor looks at you. Sad experience, not worth repeating.

Nice pavilion with an eye for the customer. Better than the neighbours further on (roompot and the neighbours of that, because the service doesn't come to you) Delicious food. Small-scale, not too much fuss but just good.

We felt very comfortable. We enjoyed the drinks and delicious food with a beautiful view of the sea. The staff were very attentive and friendly. They spoke little German, but English, which was a great help. The restaurant interior was very nice, quaint, cozy, and appealing.

Food was good. There was a super rude and unfriendly employee walking among the wait staff. My wife had a question at checkout and the waiter snapped at her “this is not the time to ask these questions”. He also brought the drinks and when we asked for a straw for our 3 year old he very rudely said go get it from the bar. Other staff was super nice.

Toilet could be kept a little better. Food and service were top notch

Nice location, service was a bit slow. But there was only 1 person walking there who was the nicest person. The food was good and the seats were comfortable. You can sit inside or outside here.

Good food, good service and beautiful views

You can have a great party here and eat delicious food. But after a walk they also have delicious coffee.

I don't even have words for this anymore

Staff does not speak Dutch and takes wrong orders Food was very average and different than expected

Nice place to chill out with friends. Delicious food while you enjoy the look of the sea

The food was fine! Operation very messy. There were enough staff, but due to language barriers (half of the staff did not speak Dutch), there was a lot of miscommunication. Had to wait almost an hour to order after asking 3 times and even when paying, asking 2 times was not enough, so I walked in to the cash register. So there is room for improvement in this area. Divide the terrace into zones in an all-round staff so that they can clear the table, bring drinks and take/serve orders. Then it doesn't matter to me whether I place the order in Dutch, English or German.

Wonderful place! Tasty food, friendly staff. Relaxed atmosphere.

Nice staff, nice stay! Delicious satay! Wonderful bickering.

The food was delicious, but the service was either unmotivated or overwhelmed. For example, we waited longer to be able to order and around 40 minutes for dessert. The location right on the beach was great!

Pedro helped us so rudely. If you don't speak English, don't worry. The neighbors have staff who speak Dutch. We should be happy that he is there. Otherwise the tent would be closed. It is up to you to judge whether this is normal.

Nice place, fast service, delicious sandwich!

Nice experience, good food and drinks. Friendly staff.

Great restaurant ❤️ great service staff and the food was bombastic ❤️
