Peuzel Utrecht
Chill restaurant at a creative hotspot
Peuzel is part of De Nijverheid, a cultural free haven in the raw and industrial Werkspoorkwartier in Utrecht. A place where artists create, experiment, and exhibit. The restaurant is located in the middle of art studios, street art and nicely designed and built up decor.
At Peuzel, you’ll find a surprising vegetable-focused menu, complemented with meat or fish. Whether you're in the mood for an affordable café meal, a good drink, to meet other creative people or just a place to unwind, this is the spot.
With a terrace, a greenhouse, and a cozy living room, Peuzel invites you to stick around. There are regular performances, exhibitions, and cultural gatherings in the same spot. For the schedule, check De Nijverheid.
