Woodstock '69
The boho institution of Bloemendaal: barefoot brunch by day, live music as the sun drops.
Woodstock '69 has been the free-spirited heart of Bloemendaal aan Zee since the nineties, and it wears the hippie thing sincerely: driftwood, flags, a house session ale called Hippie Juice brewed for them by Poesiat & Kater, and live music and legendary sunset parties woven through the summer calendar. This is your one licensed dose of beach-club chaos in this chapter, but the daytime kitchen is better than it needs to be. Turkish eggs with feta cream and chili crisp, a proper granola bowl, tomato and anchovy numbers with confit garlic, and carajillos made with their own aged rum for the recovery hours. Come on a weekday morning and it is all yoga mats and flat whites; come Saturday evening and you will dance in the sand whether you planned to or not. Reserve dinner via their WhatsApp line.
Turkish eggs with the chili crisp, then a Hippie Juice on the deck before the bands start.
