Drinks & Nightlife
I love Pacific Parc. It's my favorite place because you can come here in every mood. If you want to dance and hear a good dj or band playing (and free entrance!), if you just want to relax on a couch and talk, if you want to sit around the fireplace, if you don't want to dress up, if you don't want to dress up, if you want to have lunch or have dinner. And sshh don't tell anyone...but it's terrace had the best evening sun of all.

On walking distance. It's like your grandmothers living room, but with a twist. Art on the ceilings. Check out their website to know what's on http://www.denieuweanita.nl/ (unfortunately the website is in Dutch) . Ranging from movies, live music, dance/theme evening, dinner with a theme. And all very affordable.
