Where you leave the beaten track and marvel at the vast emptiness of the Texel mud flats. A magical place where nature has the highest and final word. Eat salty, sleep softly, and enjoy blissfully. Feel at home “op Oost”, a conscious gastronomic destination on the Texel Wad.
In our kitchen, raw craft and fine dining come together with a Nordic style of growing, foraging and preserving. Experience our 'Served by Nature' philosophy. Welcome to restaurant “het Kook Atelier”.
An authentic Texel farmhouse, a stone's throw from the Wadden Sea, is home to our intimate boutique hotel with twelve Green Key suites and fine dining restaurant. Surrounded by an edible garden with herbs, flowers and a salty vegetable garden, you will discover a different, authentic island vibe.
Skip the beaten track, explore our island together and feel like a true local. From salty wild-picking to private oyster tours. “op Oost” is a place where salty & sweet meet, tranquility and quality prevail and nature has the highest word.
What do you hear when it's quiet? Wake up to the whispering of the wind and the first rays of the sun in the morning. The beautiful moon in the starry sky makes you feel at ease. In a world in which we are constantly 'switched on', don’t you want to take a break from it all? Truly enjoying the present moment and making memories together. Today, tomorrow, right now. That is what it feels like, spending the night on Texel, what it feels like spending the night “op Oost”.
Hotel “op Oost” is a place where peace, enjoyment and connection with yourself and with nature are at its very core. In everything we do, we try to stay as close as we can to our own nature. Always asking ourselves whether something can be done differently, better, closer or more consciously. In our hotel, in our restaurant and at our events.
Our 'Oostories' are stories from ourselves, our guests and partners and can be about anything that happens on and around our Texel based boutique hotel. Stories, “op Oost”, that is. We hope you enjoy reading them.
We really appreciate meeting you in either our hotel or our restaurant. Follow us on instagram, sign up for the updates by email to stay up to date with the new menu, to stay up to date on what the chickens have experienced today and what nature is serving at the moment.
