Rotterdam never stands still. And yet there’s something about the Wijnhaven that makes you slow down. Because Anne and Max do everything they can to help you forget that for a moment. The water rippling outside, the sky above the Maas, and inside, a round wooden bench that silently invites you to sit down for a while. High tea at Anne&Max Wijnhaven: simply a great way to spend an afternoon in Rotterdam.
A living room on Wijnhaven
Anne&Max Rotterdam Wijnhaven is located at Wijnhaven 73Z, within walking distance of the Markthal, Rotterdam Blaak Station, and the Oude Haven. The interior combines Rotterdam’s straightforwardness with the warmth that characterizes Anne&Max: space, light, and a homey feel. The terrace overlooks the Wijnhaven. On a beautiful afternoon, there’s little that beats this: the water gliding by, delicious bites, and good company.
High Tea at Anne&Max Rotterdam
On the table: a round wooden platter. On the bottom layer, savory bites—fresh rolls with fillings that are well worth trying. In the middle, warm scones with jam and clotted cream. And on top, the sweet treats: small tarts and cookies that change with the seasons. The “Just Together” High Tea—or something a little more special? The “You & Me Party” High Tea comes with bubbly, pistachio trifles, and extra sweets. Max’s tip: ask for the table by the window. The view of the Wijnhaven makes the tea noticeably better.
With both packages: as much tea as you can drink from our own fresh organic teas, or coffee if you prefer. Want to know more? Check out the Anne&Max menu.
Tea at Anne&Max—not just any old tea bag
At Anne&Max, we serve our own fresh organic teas, including “Een Wijs Besluit.” A pot left to steep and a cup that feels warm to the touch. For those who prefer coffee, we serve specialty coffee and single-origin, direct-trade espresso. Decaf and iced coffee are also available. You can read more about our coffee story here.
A place at the table for everyone
Planet Friendly, gluten-free, or other requests: please let us know when you make your reservation. Anne or Max will then put together a platter to suit your needs. We always take allergens into account. High tea is also a great idea for a group: a birthday, a baby shower, a girls’ outing, or an afternoon with coworkers who deserve a moment of indulgence. For larger groups, please contact restaurant so we can guarantee enough space. Bringing kids? We have a play area and a kids’ menu.
Rotterdam Before and After High Tea
The Wijnhaven is located in the heart of historic Rotterdam. The Markthal is just a few minutes’ walk away, the Cube Houses are right around the corner, and Rotterdam Blaak Station is just a short walk away. Why not head into the city center for high tea, or take a stroll along the Erasmus Bridge afterward? Both options are perfect for an afternoon in Rotterdam.
Waterfront Terrace
When the weather is nice, the terrace at the Wijnhaven is the reason to make your reservation early. The afternoon stretches out over the water, the sun hangs low over the Maas, and you’re sitting in just the right spot. This is Rotterdam at its best.
