Omke Jan

Woudsend

Omke Jan is a Burgundian gathering place by the water in Woudsend where you can eat, drink, sleep, and experience.

Everything comes together in a modern inn under the roof of an authentic Frisian farmhouse, contemporarily renovated under the guidance of designer Piet Hein Eek. Enjoy no-nonsense food and gather around the wood oven or the communal table connected to the open kitchen. Watch as meat and vegetables cook on the charcoal grill.

Omke Jan loves good food, without fuss. In our restaurant, you can therefore savor honest dishes. Food that is recognizable, prepared with as many products as possible directly from local farmers. The seasons dictate what the farmers provide, and that's what we put on the table. Genuine and absolutely delicious!

The open kitchen is the domain of chef Ruben Schippers. In the middle of the restaurant stands a modern wood oven. As a guest, you can sit at the kitchen and see ancient techniques such as grilling, fermenting, and baking in action.

Omke Jan follows the seasons. When farmers can deliver something beautiful, we gladly turn it into a delicious dish.

On Sunday evening, you can join us for our village dish. Ideal if you want a tasty bite without a lengthy dining experience.

The black-and-white Frisian cow is the engine of our province. Therefore, she gets a place of honor at Omke Jan. Her milk, butter, and cheese run like a common thread through Omke Jan's menu.

Want to stay overnight? You can! Under the wooden beams, three spacious guest rooms and an atmospheric studio are furnished, where guests of Omke Jan can stay overnight. Piet Hein Eek combined the luxury of contemporary design with the timeless character of the old farmhouse. Relax amidst the meadows and enjoy expansive views over the water and the village in the morning. Upstairs at Omke Jan, three charming double rooms and a studio are furnished. Piet Hein Eek designed these beautiful rooms, equipped with a private bathroom with walk-in shower and toilet, comfortable beds with luxury bedding.
