A PLACE EXISTS…
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.
The perfect escape
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”.
Enjoy consciously
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.

"Het Kook Atelier" Nominated for Entree Award 'Best Fine Dining Concept'
What an amazing surprise! We are incredibly proud and excited to share that our restaurant, Het Kook Atelier, has been nominated for the prestigious Entree Awards in the category 'Best Fine Dining Concept'. This nomination feels like a wonderful recognition of our hard work, our vision, and above all, our passion for everything we do here at Op Oost.
The Entree Awards are awarded annually to innovative and outstanding hospitality concepts in the Netherlands. This year, we’ve made it into the top 5 in the Fine Dining category. For us, this means that we’re not only inspiring and delighting our guests but also gaining recognition from the experts in the field.
What Does the Jury Say?
Iris Kranenborg, editor-in-chief of Entree Magazine and chair of the jury, put it beautifully: "Congratulations, well deserved with this new permanent and promising location of the restaurant! My colleague Roy visited the place and "Het Kook Atelier" fits perfectly into this Fine Dining category, where we also truly look at the personal signature of the entrepreneurs of the restaurant. A well-earned spot in the top 5!"
What Are the Criteria?
The jury for the Entree Awards take more into consideration than just great food. Of course, the quality and creativity of the dishes are essential, but they also evaluate the story behind the restaurant, its design, and most importantly, the overall guest experience. "Het Kook Atelier" is our personal project, combining our love for the nature of Texel with refined dishes. We believe that every meal should be an experience – from the moment you walk in to the last taste on your plate.
The jury also considers the unique identity of a restaurant and the entrepreneurs who bring it to life. That we’ve managed to establish our distinctive culinary signature with "Het Kook Atelier" fills us with immense pride.
Exciting Times at "Op Oost"
This nomination comes at a fantastic time, as it's an exciting period for us. In addition to the Entree Awards nomination, we’ve also been nominated for 'The Best Discovery' by the We’re Smart Green Guide, and we've been listed in the Food100 – a selection of the most impactful food innovators in the Netherlands. All these amazing developments give us even more motivation to keep moving forward and continue innovating.
We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who has supported us so far, and of course, to our amazing team. None of this would have been possible without them. We are incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved together and are eagerly looking forward to the Entree Awards ceremony!
