Food and drinks
It’s holiday time! Take a break, go exploring, relax, and enjoy some fine dining. There are many quaint restaurants in West-Terschelling where you can dine. We would like to share a few tips! Try the island's regional specialties. Have you ever heard of ‘pondkoek’ (pound cake)? This is a Terschelling speciality. It's like the best of both worlds: spiced biscuits and taai-taai (gingerbread cookies). Furthermore, each bakery has its own secret recipe… Also try the ‘Schylger Jutters-Bitter’ herbal schnapps. A delicious herbal schnapps made from herbs found in the dunes of Terschelling. Terschelling flavour.
