De Buffel Rotterdam

Affordable Pizzas in West

"Great pizza's in a nice atmosphere (also outside) next to the scenic Heemraadsingel!"

Nestled in the lively Middellandplein, amidst the multicultural vibrancy of Rotterdam, lies de Buffel, a hidden gem. Situated close to the scenic Heemraadsingel, a street adorned with water, it's not just a pizza place.

De Buffel is my go-to spot when the craving for a great and affordable pizza strikes. Whether you choose to savor it within the cozy interior, complete with a top floor, or opt for a summer experience on the sun-kissed terrace, each visit promises a treat for the senses.

Their La Norma and Quatro Formaggi pizzas are personal favorites, delivering a delightful flavors at a wallet-friendly price. For those on the go, de Buffel also offers takeaway options, ensuring you can relish their culinary creations wherever you please. As a sweet conclusion to your meal, venture into the realm of indulgence with the Espresso Martini, affectionately abbreviated as EsMa in the Netherlands.
