A church where beer is brewed today: the Jopenkerk in Haar­lem combines historic archi­tec­ture with modern hospitality.

The former church build­ing has been converted into a brew­ery with a restau­rant. Here you can enjoy craft beers and food in an excep­tional atmosphere. 

The Jopenkerk is acces­si­ble. A lift connects the differ­ent levels, and an acces­si­ble toilet is also available.

Good to know: Haar­lem is about a 35-minute drive from Egmond. For groups, it is advis­able to reserve a table in advance.
