Oma Toos The Hague

Typical Dutch cuisine

Karoline from The Hague

About me My name is Karoline, and I moved to The Hague at the end of 2022 with my husband. We moved to The Hague simply because we wanted to: an extremely privileged position and a decision we haven’t regretted for one second. I am passionate about nature, spending time outdoors, swimming in the sea (yes, even in winter) and discovering new places. I started running about two years ago and i...
"Oma Toos, overlooking the picturesque harbour, gives you a delicious taste of Dutch cuisine in a relaxed atmosphere without paying “tourist prices”."
Oma Toos describes itself as a “Pannenkoeken restaurant”, thus a place where you can enjoy a typical Dutch dish, pancakes in various styles. You might have heard of the Dutch “Poffertjes”—a famous Dutch sweet dish and kind of like the mini-version of a pancake.

Oma Toos
is located in Scheveningen, not right at the pier where the tourists are, but rather a little bit further inland, overlooking the picturesque harbour. Oma Toos gives you a delicious taste of Dutch cuisine in a relaxed atmosphere without paying “tourist prices”. Oma Toos’ dishes taste like they were actually made with lots of love on a Sunday afternoon by your Dutch grandmother. The menu ranges from the above mentioned pannenkoeken either sweet or savoury, to a hearty “Stamppot”, again a typically Dutch dish that reminds me of stew.

In short: if you’re looking for a typically Dutch culinary experience, Oma Toos is worth a try.

I am passionate about nature, spending time outdoors, swimming in the sea (yes, even in winter) and discovering new places. I started running about two years ago and it has been life-changing. I travel a lot (sometimes for work, sometimes for leisure), and running has enabled me to see an abundance of beautiful places and animals on this planet. When I’m done with ...

Secret Garden Bakery

Best kept secret

I discovered this bakery by surprise when I was taking a shortcut through the city centre. It is located in the middle of the city centre and yet it's quite secluded.

World Peace Flame

Keeping the flame burning

Apart from its obvious significance, it's an interesting place to visit because each of the 197 countries contributed a special stone to the monument.
