Restaurant with simple but good food at one of my favourite squares in Delft! Specifically in the summer, this is one of those places, a little outside the city centre but defiantly worth to visit.

Sightseeing
Famous Delft blue, the last remaining earthenware factory from the 17th century. At the Royal Delft Experience one will discover the complete history and production process of Royal Delftware. I love it that you can see the painters doing there craftwork and it is only a 1 minute walk away from the house!

The church where the Royal Family, the members of the Dutch monastery, are buried. Moreover, it is a very scenic view if you climb all the stairs!

Arts & Culture
The Prinsenhof ("The Court of the Prince”), built in the Middle Ages as a monastery was also the place where William (Ancestor of the monarchy of the Netherlands) has been murdered.
It is a square with a rich cultural historical meaning, I really like how the museum presents the story of the Netherlands.
