Food & Drinks
Baarn has some nice restaurants within a 10 min bike ride. Tutto Pepe (3 min. walk) is a nice Italian restaurant with great pizza and cocktails. Eemlust is on located on the other side of Baarn, next to the river Eem. Great food, great atmosphere. One of our favorite spots to visit is 'Buiten in de kuil', a great restaurant in the middle of the forest between Baarn and Lage Vuursche. Great lunch and sometimes dinner directly from the open fire on the terrace overlooking the forest. Boerderij Ravenstein (10 min walk) has a great coffee shop and store. In the spring/summer you can get an ice cream there or pik flowers in the 'pluktuin' (picking garden). There are some cute animals - like donkey Charlotte - to visit as well! Looking for a simple but good lunch of afternoon drinks near the woods? Visit the Generaal.
