The best Indonesian restaurants and toko's according to locals in The Hague

Where can you find good Indonesian food in The Hague?

After the Second World War and Indonesia’s independence, many people from the former Dutch East Indies moved to the Netherlands. A large number of them settled in The Hague. To this day, the city is home to a large Indo-Dutch community.

You can still taste this history throughout the city. The Hague has many Indonesian restaurants and toko’s – in fact, more than any other city in the Netherlands – including even a vegetarian one! Discover the Indonesian restaurants and toko’s that are favourites among locals in The Hague.
