With its two modern cities filled with art and culture, there’s no shortage of bars and restaurants in New Land. Take your pick from the cosiest cafes, harbour eateries and luxurious restaurants, in the cities or hidden away in nature.
Bakboord
Let the exquisite sea views and landscapes of Almere guide you to a dining experience inspired by nature. Brasserie Bakboord prides itself on freshly caught seafood and greens from its organic vegetable garden. The harbourside restaurant has long been considered one of the best in Flevoland, and in 2015 received the Michelin Bib Gourmand: an award for exceptional food at moderate prices.

Restaurant De Klink 2.0
Located at an idyllic waterside location between the forests and the Veluwemeer Lake, it's even possible to arrive at Restaurant De Klink 2.0 by boat. The terrace offers sweeping views of the rippling water and the opportunity to dine in the fresh air. On the varied menu, you’ll find fresh dishes made with regional produce. Or you can simply pop by for a hot tea or a cold beer from the tap after a long walk or a bike ride in the area.

Bierfabriek
They say it's better to do a few things well, and Bierfabriek (literally meaning 'beer factory') certainly fits that bill. The microbrewery serves just three home-brewed varieties (Puur, Rosso and Nero) and a small but exceptional selection of food, with 24-hour marinated BBQ chicken being the speciality. Beers are served either at the bar or can be self-poured at one of the pub's tap-tables. Especially great for groups!
Bierfabriek, Almere
Applaus
Restaurant Applaus is a modern restaurant located in the controversial theatre Agora. Stop here for a perfect cup of cappuccino on the sunny terrace, drinks with finger food or end your day in Lelystad with the 5-course surprise dinner. The predominantly Mediterranean dishes are prepared from scratch and with fresh ingredients.
Applaus, Lelystad
De Gordiaan
Pure food and romantic dining, that’s De Gordiaan kitchen bar. As one of the oldest restaurants in the centre of Lelystad (which of course, seeing New Land is only 40 years old, makes it still a youngster), De Gordiaan serves fresh and honest food, made with organic products from the region. Because all ingredients are purchased daily, you will not find fixed menus in this cosy restaurant. Instead, choose from the current list of dishes and create your own 3, 4 or 5-course menu.

Hajé Hotel Restaurant de Aalscholver
Falling somewhere between a water lodge and a cosy hotel, Hajé’s pavilion restaurant is the ideal spot to take in views of the lake, forest and surrounding nature reserve. Take a seat on the atmospheric veranda as you tuck into a varied menu of fresh seasonal dishes with a focus on organic and local produce. You can start your day with a superfood breakfast, take a luxurious ciabatta for lunch or enjoy a hearty evening meal and bites for dinner.
