De Aubergerie
The sweets that used to be sold in this establishment dating back to the 1700s have given way to delicacies such as lobster and Venus clams. This new direction is reflected in the artistic photographs hanging on the walls of this cosy, intimate-feeling restaurant. Chef Han showcases his ingredients in cutting-edge dishes drawing on solid French foundations and with the odd creative flourish. Take, for instance, his succulent marbré of goose breast and rillette, with the sweet earthiness of textures of beetroot, combined with vibrant pickled mustard seeds and punchy creamed rocket. The friendly
WebsiteDe Saffraan
This old clipper moored in the canal has been converted into an elegant and intimate restaurant with a terrace on the deck where you can while away the hours. De Saffraan really is an exceptional restaurant with great service provided by charming waitstaff. Chef van Wechem has a penchant for punchy flavours and innovative techniques, handling top-notch ingredients with finesse. For instance, he elevates fried turbot with a wonderfully robust beach crab jus and adds coconut for depth. This place has real personality!
WebsiteMEI
(MEI opened the pop-up Dichtbij MEI at its familiar address in 2026) In the exceptionally charming centre of Amersfoort, this restaurant offers a relaxed and intimate dining experience complete with warm hospitality and astute wine recommendations. Ingeborgh Blok leads the front-of-house team with effortless grace while Marco gets on with creating dishes that showcase local ingredients with his intuitive approach. Vegetables, herbs and infusions dominate, with fish or meat making occasional appearances. Highlights include with vibrantly presented aubergine and a delicately acidic tomato and ch
WebsiteDe Monnikendam
Originally part of Amersfoort's second city wall, Monnickendam is a watergate dating back to the early 15C. Today, this piece of history has been repurposed to create a unique culinary destination. There are intimate dining spaces within the towers and a waterside terrace affording wonderful views. Thanks to the enthusiasm of hostess Kristel and chef Richard, this establishment has made a name for itself. With each course, the tasting menu seamlessly navigates between the familiar and the exotic: Think hamachi accompanied by a tangy ponzu, or lamb saddle with a crispy crust and a lamb jus infu
WebsiteTollius
With its sleek decor done out in burgundy and white and contemporary artwork on the walls, Tollius has an inviting feel. This is also down to chef Barry's expertise in producing hearty classics such as his wonderfully crispy pithivier filled with a rich combination of quail, foie gras and morels. But he is just as adept at whipping up a surprisingly zesty modern dessert involving wasabi and a lemon gel. If the extensive wine list is anything to go by, this place is certainly run by people with excellent taste.
