Beach Barn

The 2026 newcomer at the quiet south end: farm-style room, own bakery, eighty wines by the sea.

Beach Barn opened for the 2026 season at the south end of the boulevard, and it immediately reads different from every other pavilion on this coast: wooden barn framing, beige linen, classical and earthy where the neighbours go boho or beach-bar. Tim Determann and Tess run it seven days a week from 8:30, when the in-house bakery starts turning out croissants and cinnamon buns that alone justify the strandafgang. The kitchen works with local suppliers and keeps the card tight, proper sandwiches and salads at lunch, then shellfish, noodle soup, burgers, ravioli and a dorade for two at dinner, with a wine list of around eighty bottles that no beach tent needs and this one has anyway. It sits at the calm Paulus Loot end next to Tijn Akersloot, so you get the good sand without the circuit-weekend crowds. Readers who eat this coast weekly rate it the find of the season, and we agree.

Morning: a cinnamon bun from the bakery on a beach bed. Evening: the dorade for two and let the wine list show off.
