Must-see attractions

Urban Espresso Bar

　　Could this be Rotterdam's best cafe? The coffee here is definitely a cut above most of its competitors (Giraffe beans, expert baristas), as is the food (artisanal breads and pastries, house-baked cakes, global flavours, organic ingredients). We can highly recommend the tosties (toasted sandwiches), soups and burgers, and we always...

Fenix Food Factory

　　Almost everything in this former warehouse is made locally and sold by entrepreneurs making their mark on the food scene. They include Booij Kaasmakers (cheese, milk, yoghurt, eggs), Cider Cider, Jordy's Bakery (bread and baked goods), Stielman Koffiebranders (coffee roasters), Stroop Rotterdam (stroopwafels), Kaapse Brouwers (craft brewery), Firma Bijten (meat)...

Van Nelle Fabriek

　　Designed and built between 1925 and 1931, this modernist World Heritage–listed factory northwest of the city centre is an icon of 20th-century industrial architecture. Often described as a 'glass palace' (it's largely constructed of steel and glass), it functioned as a state-of-the-art coffee, tea and tobacco factory until the 1990s...

　　One of the city's signature buildings, this extraordinary inverted-U-shaped market hall was designed by local architecture firm MVRDV and opened for business in 2014. It comprises highly sought-after glass-walled apartments arcing over a 40m-high market hall with a striking fruit-and-vegetable-muralled ceiling. Most of the stalls sell food to eat on...

　　When company director Albertus Sonneveld decided to commission an architect to design a contemporary home for his family, the obvious choice was Leendert van der Vlugt, who had designed the magnificent Van Nelle Factory. Working with Johannes Brinkman, Van der Vlugt designed a streamlined, state-of-the-art building that was hailed as...

Museum Rotterdam '40-'45 NU

　　Good things often come in small packages, and so it is with this small but excellent museum sheltered under a bridge on the Coolhaven. An eight-minute immersive multimedia experience outlines the terror and destruction caused by the bombing of Rotterdam on 14 May 1940, when 54 German aircraft dropped 1300...

　　Once home to the largest red-light district in Europe, Katendrecht is now one of Rotterdam’s culinary hotspots. The Deliplein is a small plaza right behind the Fenix Food Factory that houses more than 20 restaurants and bars, including upmarket steakhouse CEO and bohemian bar Café De Ouwehoer. The Theater Walhalla...

　　This dynamic cultural institution in Rotterdam's main museum enclave is known for its constantly changing and inevitably thought-provoking exhibition program. There are always at least three exhibitions to visit – from painting to photography, fashion to graphic design – and these are spread across the architecturally notable multifloored building, which...

Museum Boijmans van Beuningen

　　The roll-call of artists represented in the collection of Rotterdam's pre-eminent fine-arts museum is stellar and spans multiple periods and movements: Rubens, Rembrandt, Monet, Degas, Van Gogh, Picasso, Degas, Miró, Bacon and many other luminaries are represented. Highlights include Jan van Eyck's The Three Marys at the Tomb (1425–35), Hieronymus...

Kaapse Brouwers

　　Beloved for its live-jazz nights on Fridays from 8pm, this craft brewery in the Fenix Food Factory brews a bitter, ale, IPAs and stout. Its on-site Kaapse Kitchen offers meals. There's indoor and outdoor seating. ...

National Jenevermuseum Schiedam

　　Housed in an 18th-century distillery, this museum is dedicated to the industry that Schiedam is best known for: production of the traditional Dutch gin known as jenever. In 1850, when the industry was at its height, there were hundreds of businesses distilling malt wine and adding juniper to produce this...

　　Designed by OMA, whose star architect Rem Koolhaas is a Pritzker-winning local hero, this 'vertical city' with its three interconnected towers was completed in 2013 and is the city's most acclaimed contemporary building. It incorporates Rotterdam city council offices, apartments, the nhow hotel and cocktail bar, and restaurants including HMB....
