Specialty Beer Café De Markies

Specialty beer café De Markies is a leading specialty beer café in Leeuwarden, Friesland, where knowledge, service, and a warm smile take center stage.

Biercafé De Markies has more than 250 different bottled beers, 12 rotating taps, and there is even a secret stash for the real 'die-hard' beer geeks! Additionally, they have an extensive cheese menu featuring 17 cheeses with a flavor wheel, making it easy to pair beers with cheeses. 

The cafe has an authentic atmosphere with many enamel beer signs. Music is present but not too loud, mostly 80s alternative. The terrace with 100 seats is situated in the sun with a quiet view of the theatre. 

They organize various events, including the Leeuwarden Beer Festival twice a year with 2500 visitors, and the celebrations of King's Day and Liberation Day on the square in front. They also provide custom beer tastings, or you can join the seasonal tasting four times a year. Hiring a barge for a cruise through the canals of Leeuwarden with a beer or wine tasting is also an option. 

In short, craft beer café De Markies will surprise you on all fronts!

See you soon!
