Rotterdam Craft by the Water

Chef-owner Justin Koopman is a born and raised Rotterdammer with a love of pure flavours, honest food and detail on the plate. His experience includes respected restaurants such as Zeezout, Parkheuvel, FG Restaurant and ’t Ganzenest, where he developed the technical base behind his own style. At Aan de Zweth, he cooks modern, seasonal food with a classical French foundation and a sober Rotterdam directness. His dishes are built around balance, simplicity and quality, with enough creativity to give familiar products a more personal expression.

“I want guests to recognise the product first, then discover the flavour, detail and balance we have built around it.”

Aan de Zweth is set by the water between Rotterdam and Delft, in a historic building with deep culinary roots. This was once the home of De Zwethheul, a name long associated with Dutch gastronomy, and today Justin Koopman and Indy Chiron Akkermans give the address its next chapter. The restaurant feels elegant and contemporary, with lunch, dinner and terrace dining all shaped by the same care. Guests come for refined cooking, thoughtful wines, personal service and the rare calm of a waterside setting in Midden-Delfland.
