Station Bergweg Rotterdam

Foodmarket in old train station

Floor from Rotterdam

I was born in Rotterdam but raised in different cities in the Netherlands. In 2020, I moved back to Rotterdam. On weekdays, I am a teacher at the University of Applied Sciences. I find peace in long city walks with my dog and enjoy discovering new places while wandering around the city. I love to divide my free time between peaceful green spots and vibrant, crowded places. Additionally, I love to ...
"Here Sundays come alive with the aroma of freshly brewed coffee & delectable pastries, drawing locals to enjoy lazy afternoons and hangover cures."

Step into the bustling world of Station Bergweg, a hidden gem tucked away in the heart of Rotterdam's Hofbogen project. This old train station, with roots dating back to 1908, has been reimagined into a vibrant food hall concept, offering a delightful fusion of flavors and experiences.

My journey to Station Bergweg began with a search for my favorite patissier, Le PetitJean, which led me to this dynamic spot. Here, Sundays come alive with the aroma of freshly brewed coffee and delectable pastries, drawing locals to enjoy lazy afternoons filled with people bringing board games and enjoying hangover cures.

But the magic of Station Bergweg doesn't end with Sundays. Fridays usher in a lively atmosphere as friends gather for the quintessential Dutch tradition of "VrijMiBo" (Friday drinks). With a diverse array of food options, including the tempting Pinxos from Bar Bilbao, the irresistible fries from Stooges, and the refreshing beer from Eurobrouwers, there's always something new to savor.

Close to Station Bergweg, you will find two of my other favourite spots, Coppi and Man with Bril, beneath the old rail tracks.

I was born in Rotterdam but raised in different cities in the Netherlands. In 2020, I moved back to Rotterdam. On weekdays, I am a teacher at the University of Applied Sciences. I find peace in long city walks with my dog and enjoy discovering new places while wandering around the city. I love to divide my free time between peaceful green spots and vibrant, crowded places. Additionally, I love to cook, get fresh ingredients on the market, go out for drinks or coffee, or discover new flavours in restaurants. To me, Rotterdam is one of the true cities of the Netherlands. It's a vibr...
