About
Situated on Plein 1940 in the very heart of Middelburg, Barres has established itself as one of Zeeland's most celebrated dining destinations. A Michelin Selected listing, a Gault&Millau score of 14/20, a place in the Lekker Top 500 2026, and a near-perfect 4.9 on Google from 146 reviews all point to a restaurant that consistently punches above its weight.
The driving force behind Barres is the complementary partnership of chef Edwin Dingemanse and sommelier Sjoerd Dooge. Edwin crafts refined, well-balanced dishes rooted in a modern culinary sensibility, while Sjoerd brings a discerning eye to the wine list — offering generous by-the-glass selections so guests can explore pairings without committing to a full bottle.
Whether you choose a seat on the outdoor terrace on the lively square or settle in for dinner inside, Barres caters to a range of guests — vegetarian options are also available. The kitchen is open Tuesday through Saturday evenings, making it an excellent choice for a special midweek dinner or a leisurely weekend meal in Middelburg.
One evening at Plein 1940 is all it takes — secure your table at Barres before someone else does.
