Where medicines used to be sold over the counter, a round wooden tray now takes center stage. This is what high tea in The Hague looks like at Anne&Max on Frederik Hendriklaan, in a corner building that was once a pharmacy and has retained its character even after the renovation. Max says: Take another close look above the door—the traces of the old pharmacy are still there if you know where to look.
A living room on De Fred
Anne&Max The Hague Fred is located on Frederik Hendriklaan, right in the middle of the street that locals simply call “De Fred.” Since 1909, this has been the city’s most charming shopping street, full of specialty shops you won’t find anywhere else and places to pick up your daily groceries. The surrounding Statenkwartier is a quiet, stately neighborhood, and the beach is within biking distance for anyone who wants to get some fresh air after high tea. Inside, you’ll find the familiar Anne&Max atmosphere: lounge chairs with a book, a reading table for a game, and tables by the window to watch passersby cycling down De Fred.
High Tea at Anne&Max in The Hague Fred
The “Gewoon Samen” High Tea is just the right amount for a casual afternoon break while you’re out shopping. If you have something to celebrate, go for the “Jij&Ik Feest” High Tea with bubbly, pistachio trifles, and some extra sweets on the side. Both come with as much tea as you can drink from their selection of fresh organic teas—or coffee, if you prefer. Max’s recommendation: start with the savory bites at the bottom—the scones taste better if you don’t dive right in. Curious about the rest of the menu? You’ll always get as much tea as you can drink from our own fresh organic blends, or coffee if you prefer. Check out the menu.
