5 stars baby, can't hold back the enthusiasm I have for this tucked away Brooklyn-style alleyway…read morerestaurant. I'm talkin lady-n-the-tramp candlelight with a west side story staircase entrance. Food, as a vegetarian, is great, meat lovers would probably dig the options as well. I didn't even order dessert I can't handle the home made ice cream or the strawberry white chocolate tart. Not this time. Internet for working or writing on yelp, beers on tap and I hear there's live music quite often at the bar downstairs. I don't want to overstate things but her pakhuis might be the coolest place to eat in all of Groningen! --- chhhhhallenge!

interesting place. This is a rather dark bar. The smoking area is huge and sealed off by glass…read morewalls ( most of the bar is the smoking area). you can play pool and just hand out. make sure to check out the upstairs! also every tuesday there is live reggae music!! big party every time. not for everyone but a must for those who enjoy kind of dark slightly dodgy bars

I'm a fan of this dance school - more than "just" Salsa…read more I'm a university student in Groningen and this week I am starting with my 5th salsa dance course at this dance school. The atmosphere here is great and also a little familiar, the dance teachers always have a smile for you and a flair of Cuba is in the air. This dance school is particular recommenable because it offers more than "just" learning different dances ( Salsa, Bachata, Kizomba, Son, Reggeaton, Latin-Jazz,...), the cuban flair and the good atmosphere are simply contagious. Moreover, you do not have to register as a couple. If one has no partner ready, the team of the dance school is organizing the necessary number (of men) for the respective courses. This way men of other courses at other times can have extra practice without paying more and all women will have a male dance partner, who does not necessarily always have to be the same. Thus, it becomes natural to dance with different people right from the beginning. This flexible concept works very good, as far as I can judge it. Furthermore, next to the dance lessons there is also a weekly free dance event - at this evening everyone can go there in order to test what they have learned or to just spend a nice time, watch others dance, enjoy the music and drink a cocktail. Course prices are reasonable and comparable with other dance schools in Groningen and there is a student discount. The main language that is spoken is Dutch, however, everyone is always ready to translate into English. Furthermore, the participants are usually very diverse and from many different countries of origin so that other languages ​​can be heard as well, which always enhances my feeling of holiday and a time out from everyday life. Two things could be improved. First, the air conditioning of the dance rooms - each room is equipped with several large fans, but it still gets very warm while dancing. Moreover, one can only pay with cash at the bar. - Therefore, only 4 out of 5 stars Nevertheless, I can highly recommend this dance school and the Salsa Juan Carlos team.

Nice small theater. Comfortable seats and decently clean. Very friendly staff who helped me with…read morecredit card movie purchase. 1st time I did it, no problem. 2nd time I went machine would not accept any of my cards and kept switching languages on me half way thru the process. They processed it at the information desk no problem. Would have preferred that they recycle their 3D glasses rather than throwing them away. The theater itself was good sized and both the sound volume and quality of the sound was good. Also, perfect temperatures inside as well. All in all, a good experience.

Please note that this is now called House of Cooking, apparently to avoid confusion with another…read morelocal place. Good from Soup to Grouse Very happy our hotel directed us to House of Cooking. While I eat everything, my wife has a list of food sensitivities that could choke a chef. House of Cooking does not have an extensive menu, focusing on a few high-quality, fresh (and mostly organic) ingredients, but they combined these in ways that were exceptionally pleasing to both of us. We started with a shot of pumpkin soup both of us would happily have made a meal. Next I had some fresh bread with a great parmesan butter, but they made my wife a lovely chicken and onion app since she is gluten free. Third course was very simple grilled sardines, but they were the first sardines I have ever gotten my wife to eat (and enjoy). The main course was grouse and pork, and the grouse was the best I have ever had. Completely recommend House of Cooking, even if we were too tired to stay for the live music. FYI, apparently on Sundays they do not serve food, but still have bands and fully stocked bar. The only negatives? Yes, it was a little pricey, but comparable to similar restaurants in the States. Oh, and our extremely helpful waiter Renee had a cooler shirt than I.
