About
Nestled beside the village church in Loenen aan de Vecht, Tante Koosje occupies a listed historic building whose name pays tribute to Koosje Edema, a former resident of the property. The village itself has held protected heritage status since 1966, and the restaurant's setting is one of its most picturesque expressions.
Inside, warmth and refinement go hand in hand: a characterful interior meets carefully laid, modern tables and attentive, professional service. Chef Roland Veldhuijzen channels this into a modern French menu offered both à la carte and as a chef's menu, with dedicated options for fish, meat, and a fully vegetarian route. The kitchen's ambition is reflected in a Michelin star, a 15/20 from Gault&Millau, and an average rating of 4.7 across 441 Google reviews.
The restaurant also features in the 2026 Lekker Top 500 and was named Terras van het Jaar in 2015 — an accolade you'll appreciate the moment you settle onto the terrace overlooking this serene Dutch village. Dinner is served Tuesday through Saturday.
