This restaurant is an absolute must in Beverwijk. Friendly ambience and staff.
The menu is regularly changing and the pricing is always very moderate, nice wines and good draft beers.
We go there with the whole family and always enjoy it.
During the weeknd hoewever reserving a table is an absolute must as it is always packed.

Very nice place located in the center of Beverwijk, the service and attention of the staff is good even when it's completely crowded and that's always a good signal. The interior is nicely decorated and has a cozy feeling (however a bit outdated in some details).
The food is reasonable when you think about the price and quality of what you get, my kids liked the pizza a lot and my risotto was perfect. However my wife's pasta didn't have much taste unfortunately. It is the same with the wine we ordered, we're wine lovers and what they offer us was also not very special.
In the end it's a good choice and we'll be probably back soon.

The restaurant is serving well prepared dishes, in a number of courses. All dishes are generally prepared very well. Staff is able to present some nice matching wines with the menu, which makes it even more interesting. Food is right quality/quantity/price level. As restaurants go in the Ijmuiden area, this is definitely one of the best.

We arrived late to the Ijmuiden Holiday Inn (9.30pm) and hadn't made any dinner arrangements. We didn't fancy eating in the hotel so telephoned the restaurant who said that they were closing at 10pm but would squeeze us in if we went straight over. They welcomed us on arrival and we never felt like they were trying to rush us, despite the fact that they had closed.
I've been there a number of times before, but it has been refurbished since my last visit - it looks fantastic. They've done a great job of the refurbishment - the food seems even nicer too!!
We had a mixed starter plate - which was absolutely awesome. A wide variety of very good food - good quality and well cooked.
For main I had Sczechuan King Prawns and Plain noodles. Fantastically tasty, with a good size portion.
Some good chinese beer on draught too!
The service was very good - the lady was very entertaining!
The price point was about right - neither cheap / nor overly expensive.
Will definitely go back next time I stay at the Holiday Inn - it's a bit out of the way to travel there from Haarlem or Wijk Aan Zee.

Welcome to the seafood Restaurant De Meerplaats. The restaurant is located right on the lively fishing port of Ijmuiden and has been around since 1970. The current owner William Brands sways the scepter since 1993. He introduced the three-course menu which has become an absolute hit. For just € 34.50 you get a choice of starters, main courses and desserts. Combine for a great price! The extensive wine list has been compiled in consultation with renowned Wine Importer Okhuysen. Our fish comes fresh from fishmongers Molenaar every day. Families or large groups are no problem, but also an intimate dinner for two is possible. We do have an English menu, so tourists can easily order the most delicious meals prepared by our chef Fred Nieswaag. From Monday until Sunday we also serve lunch, but then you can also choose from all the courts of the menu! Restaurant De Meerplaats is open seven days a week: – Sunday until friday from 12:00 midday to 21:30 hour – Saterday from 16:00 hour

We found the place by accident. Good fresh food. Very fish based but what it does it does well. I had the salmon with garlic sauce and hubby the cod. The cod had nicely seasoned batter. Chips, roast potatoes and salad came with the meals.
The service was good.
The outside could do with a brush up and clean but once inside it's very posh.

If you happen to end up in Ijmuiden, this is a nice restaurant. The food is mainly seafood and of good quality, with very sizeable portions. The setting is nice with plenty of space for bigger groups. If the weather is nice it got some good spaces outside.
The service was very friendly and attentive, all in all a very enjoyable experience.
