The food is not cheap, but it's a nice place to sit and have a drink (wine!) and see the real fake Rembrandt "Nightwatch" in the back of the room. Beware: some of the waitresses can be a bit grumpy.

Sightseeing

In Volendam (which is too touristic to our taste) you can hop on the boat to the beautiful former island (now peninsula) of Marken, where you can go to "Kerkbuurt" where you find lovely wooden houses.

In the winter this is the jazzclub, but in the summer you can enjoy the water(sports) and sit on the nicest terrace of Edam. Definitely my favourite spot in Edam, winter or summer.
