Café Het Anker Hoorn
Hoorn, Netherlands
The read// why locals go
Cafe Het Anker sits on Visserseiland in Hoorn's old harbour, pouring jenever and North Holland beer to a crowd that mostly lives within walking distance. There is no real kitchen, just simple snacks to go with the drinking, and that is the correct arrangement for a harbour cafe of this kind. It has stayed essentially unchanged since the harbour was still working fishing boats, which is why Hoorn treats it as the most authentic cafe in town rather than a recreation of one. The terrace faces the water. Around EUR 9 covers a drink and something to eat.
