Last edited on 7 June 2024

Discover the magic of Enkhuizen in winter. The narrow streets and canals of Enkhuizen most closely resemble a print by Anton Pieck at this time of year. Take a nice walk and finish with a hot chocolate, with or without a dash of goodies….

5 fine addresses for hot chocolate

1. The Coffy-Huys: makes delicious hot chocolate with real chocolate.

2. The Station: in such a place and with such friendly staff your chocolate milk tastes extra good.

3. Rijksmagazijn: treat yourself to a beautiful view (over the harbor) with your hot chocolate.

4. Herberg De Compagnie: nice and central and always cozy.

5. IJgenweis Streekbos: after a winter walk through the Streekbos you can warm up here.
