About
Tucked into the forests of Hoog Soeren on the Veluwe, Wild Atelier has swiftly established itself as one of the most exciting new restaurant destinations in the Netherlands. Chef Jonathan Zandbergen — named Young Chef of the Year in 2017 — brings a sharply personal vision to modern cuisine, with game gastronomy as its defining thread. Gault&Millau awarded the restaurant a remarkable 16.5/20 on its very first listing and named it Remarkable Newcomer of the Year.
Zandbergen's cooking is anchored in carefully sourced ingredients from local game management, fisheries, and regenerative farming. The result is cuisine that is simultaneously refined and deeply intense — a balance that distinguishes Wild Atelier from the crowd. The restaurant also features in the 2026 Lekker Top 500, holds a Michelin selection, and earns a perfect five-star rating from Google reviewers.
Open only Thursday through Saturday, Wild Atelier is a deliberate, unhurried experience in the heart of the Veluwe. Vegetarian options are available, and reservations can be made through the Echoput website. Plan ahead — this is a destination worth travelling for.
