Coffee with a view of the canal

Along the canals of Leeuwarden, you’ll find a cozy spot where you can easily lose track of time. Find a spot by the window and watch as boats dock, cyclists ride by, and the city quietly goes about its business at its own pace. Start your morning with a fresh breakfast, join us later for a hearty lunch platter, or linger a while with a specialty coffee and a large slice of cake. Are you coming with friends or family? Then we’ll happily prepare a cozy high tea for you, while the water gently laps by outside.
Friesland's First Living Room
Anne&Max Leeuwarden is the first “ restaurant ” in Friesland, opened by the cheerful entrepreneur Marloes. After thirteen years in Leeuwarden, she felt the city was ready for a living room where everyone feels welcome. That’s why she restored the character of the historic corner building, including the original facade that once again overlooks the canal.
That attention to the location is evident everywhere. The Naauw is one of the most beautiful streets in Leeuwarden, with artisan shops, specialty stores, and the water always nearby. Are you coming by boat? Then you’ll dock almost right outside the door. And once you step inside, you’ll immediately understand why Marloes says that Anne&Max feels like an extension of her own home.
