On the Turfmarkt on the Spaarne, just past the Gedempte Oude Gracht. Opened Sprout. Owner Bibi had a wealth of experience in the hospitality, marketing and pedagogy when she came up with the plan. The result: a breakfast and lunch place with (wish 1) good food and good coffee, (wish 2) indoor and outdoor play areas, (wish 3) a cozy interior and (wish 4) affordability.

The children's menu includes bear rolls, fruit or raw vegetable bowls, mini pancakes, small smoothies and more treats, all for less than €5. Parents can choose from various breakfasts and richly filled sandwiches. In addition to the menu and the sunny terrace, the sand kitchen is a big hit. So there's a good chance that many more relaxed play and coffee dates will take place here.
