About

On the Aweg in Groningen, restaurant De Haan is built on a foundation of trust — quite literally. There is no conventional waiting staff: guests keep track of what they take in bread and drinks themselves. This unconventional approach creates a warmly informal atmosphere, reinforced by closely set tables and an open kitchen from which chef Dennis de Haan and his team personally deliver every course.

The creative kitchen expresses itself exclusively through a mandatory surprise menu, which unfolds from amuse-bouche to dessert in a succession of balanced flavours and textures. The format has earned De Haan serious recognition: a score of 14.5/20 from Gault&Millau, a place in the Michelin selection, and a spot in the Lekker Top 500 for 2026. The restaurant was also named Bistronoom van het Jaar (Bistronomy Restaurant of the Year) in 2019.

A Google rating of 4.9 from 247 reviews places De Haan among the most consistently praised restaurants in the city. With menus priced between €68 and €115 per person, it strikes a balance between genuine culinary ambition and accessibility.

Secure your seat at one of Groningen's most celebrated tables — an evening you won't forget.
