4. De Brunch Bar

Brunch with a French vibe; that means round marble tables, golden accents, tasty coffee and croissants. But that’s not all, of course. For example, there are tasty sandwiches and smoothie bowls on the menu. Or go for an extensive brunch menu.

Tip: order the Flora Tea. This is a tea in the shape of a not yet blossomed flower, which opens as soon as it is in water.

5. Guliano

Sometimes you just want a good sandwich where the use of toppings is anything but modest. Our favorite choice is definitely Guliano.

This restaurant is a mix of Italian and New York flavors and on the menu you will find sandwiches such as Ed’s Pastrami, Bistecca, Vitello Tonnato, Gallo, the GULIANO’s Truffle burger and much more.

The truffle mayonnaise is definitely something you don’t want to miss when visiting Guliano. Ideal for a Sunday brunch to forget your hangover.

Address

Meent 31A, 3011 JC Rotterdam

6. the bellhop hotel

Just because it’s a hotel doesn’t mean you can’t come and taste their delicious menu. A real asset to the Witte de Withstraat if you ask us, because here you eat according to an all day breakfast concept – something we don’t see much in this bustling Rotterdam street.

The menu includes a breakfast plate with a boiled egg, croissants, avocado toast, yogurt & homemade granola and pieces of fruit. This can be ordered until noon.

In addition, there are a lot of individual dishes that can be ordered until 5 p.m., such as pancakes with blueberries, a (soya) yogurt bowl and much more.

We love having brunch at Vlaamsch Broodhuys. And the choice always goes out to the sharing platter. On this platter you will find homemade dishes such as Gouda cheese with mustard and pickles, farmer’s chicken salad, tuna salad and avocado with lime, feta and seeds; all served with different types of bread.

Perfect for enjoying a quiet Sunday together with someone.

8. Dudok

Dudok is not to be missed when you walk along the Meent and it’s a place where you wonder if it is ever not busy. It might not be the place for a fancy vegan acai bowl, but if you’re in the mood for delicious fried eggs or a big sandwich, you’ve come to the right place.

Hungover on Sunday? We recommend the “Dudok 12-hour” – with sourdough bread, a croquette (also veggie!), soup and egg salad!

Address

Meent 88, 3011 JP Rotterdam

9. Euromast

With the best view of the city, a glass of orange juice and an extensive buffet, the Euromast brunch is not bad at all. Get a breath of fresh air and watch the city wake up from above.
