Pubs and restaurants on the Grote Markt

The Grote Markt is home to various bars and restaurants, including De Zwarte Ruiter, Hoender en Hop, September, Zèta, Boterwaag and Vavoom Tikiroom. In the summer, the square transforms into a large, bustling terrace. However, the Grote Markt offers more than just a pleasant place to eat and drink: in the Popdistrict, there are frequent free performances by bands and acts, particularly during the summer months.

Accessibility of Grote Markt

The Grote Markt can be reached both by public transport and by car. The Grote Markt can be reached by tram lines 2, 3, 4 and 6, bus line 25, and a 15-minute walk from Den Haag CS and HS train stations. The closest car parks are Parking Spui, Centrum and Turfmarkt.
