At Anne&Max Alkmaar, high tea is a time to relax, laugh, celebrate and enjoy. And all that, in the middle of the city, on the waterfront, overlooking the historic facades of the old town.

High tea on the water in the flower barge 

Want to give your high tea in Alkmaar just that little bit extra? Then choose a spot on our flower barge. Our beautiful boat is docked to our terrace and offers space for groups or a cozy setting for two. Here you sit just a bit quieter, but still with the warm feeling of our living room.

It is a unique experience: drinking tea on the water, with a view of the city, the lapping water beneath you and a table full of goodies in front of you. Would you like to combine your high tea with a glass of prosecco or a fresh smoothie? Of course you can, because it's your party!

What to Expect from Our High Tea 

Our high tea is a lavish spread of savory and sweet treats, served with a selection of Anne&Max teas that you can enjoy as often as you’d like. Think club sandwiches, soup, cake, scones, and chocolate. Everything is prepared with wholesome, mostly organic, and local ingredients. In the summer, we also serve our high tea with homemade iced tea.

We also offer plenty of options for guests who prefer vegetarian or vegan dishes. Just let us know when you make your reservation. Want to know exactly what’s on the menu? Take a look at the menu to get an idea of what we have to offer. 

A place worth coming back to 

Anne&Max is located in one of the most beautiful spots in Alkmaar. Situated between the city’s two most famous shopping streets, it features a large terrace along the canal with a view of the Platte Stenenbrug. Inside, it’s bright, warm, and cozy. Outside, you can enjoy the view of the water, surrounded by flowers, a pleasant atmosphere, and plenty of space to relax. 

Our high tea is popular not only because of all the delicious treats, but also because of the atmosphere in our living room. It’s the little things that keep you coming back to us time and again for a table (maybe even on the boat) full of treats. 

Groups and Parties 

Something to celebrate? On the flower barge or inside, we make room for larger parties. A baby shower, birthday, team outing or family afternoon: we like to think along with you. And do you have a particular theme or a personal wish? Then we can think along with you. 

We also offer custom catering for off-site events, including high tea packages. Everything is freshly prepared, beautifully presented, and delivered to your location with a big smile. Please contact us to discuss the options.
