What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Diners praise De Molen for its unique windmill setting, delicious and beautifully presented French and seafood dishes, and friendly service.

Despite minor critiques, the overall sentiment suggests a highly recommended dining experience.
"We got a warm welcome from the hostess, which also welcomed us up in the old mill. Here a lovely man showed us how the mill operated and told us a lot about the mill and history. After this we got a very tasty meal and an amazing service. The setting reminded me of a wine yard with a cozy atmosphere in the garden."
Mikkel Anderson
"A windmill converted into a restaurant. The food, service, and surroundings were all very good. Definitely worth a detour off the motorway."
