Dutch croquette Paradise: The Hague's Must-Visit delicacies
Sometimes you just want a hearty, crispy snack. And what could be more Dutch than a delicious croquette? The Hague is bursting with addresses where you can indulge in this golden brown delicacy. Whether you go for a traditional beef croquette, something exotic like rendang, or a surprising vegetarian variant.
De Haagsche Croquetterij
This name is synonymous with quality. More and more restaurants in The Hague have the croquettes of De Haagsche Croquetterij on their menu, and not without reason. Traditionally prepared and full of flavour, these croquettes are an absolute must-try for the enthusiast. Can be found at Palmette, Jamey Bennet or Hoender & Hop, among others.
Lunchroom Daytime
On the atmospheric Denneweg you will find Lunchroom Daytime, a place where you can not only go for a cozy lunch, but also for a delicious rendang croquette. Homemade and full of flavor, it is an absolute must for anyone who loves a flavor explosion in the form of a croquette.
Vishandel Zoutenbier
Although Vishandel Zoutenbier, Groot Hertoginnelaan 147, is best known as a fishmonger, it has a must-have that many restaurants in The Hague like to put on the menu: their sublime shrimp croquette. This crispy delicacy, perfectly seasoned and richly filled, is a valuable addition to the city's offering.
Slagerij Dungelmann
This list is not complete without mentioning Slagerij Dungelmann. Ever since its foundation in 1861, this butcher shop has been known for its quality. People come from far and wide to The Hague for the specialties of this traditional butcher shop. And the croquette? That is high on the list of reasons to visit Dungelmann.
Sababa
In the lively Prinsestraat, a Middle Eastern restaurant is hidden: Sababa, with a special surprise on the menu: the aubergine croquette. The whole city is buzzing with the rumours that this vegetarian delicacy is divine. Worth a visit!
't Goude Hooft
A nostalgic experience in the middle of The Hague city centre: that is the pull wall of restaurant 't Goude Hooft. Here you pull homemade croquettes, fresh and in various flavours such as veal, cheese and shrimp, straight from the wall. A unique stop for every croquette lover visiting The Hague city centre.
Bij HeM
A croquette for the conscious lover! The oyster mushroom croquette, where the oyster mushrooms are grown circularly on coffee grounds, offers a vegan treat that is both unique and tasty. It takes some searching to find where you can get this sustainable delicacy, but 'Bij HeM' proudly has it on the menu. A must for those who want something different, but still tasty!
