Culinary French Restaurant in Rotterdam

Welcome to Restaurant On Cru! In our characteristic building at Haringvliet 92B in historic
Rotterdam, next to the Koningsbrug and a short walk from the Oude Haven, the refinement of
fine dining meets the warm, welcoming atmosphere of a French brasserie.
Led by chef Kelvin de Pijper and host Denise van der Mijn, everything here revolves around
experiencing, discovering, sharing and tasting. Chef Kelvin cooks from a classic French
foundation, combined with Dutch and seasonal produce. Classic techniques, distinctive flavours
and surprising combinations form the common thread throughout his cooking.
Our à la carte menu evolves with the seasons and offers both lunch and dinner, with fish,
meat and vegetables taking centre stage. Join us for an extensive lunch from Thursday to
Sunday from 12:00, or dinner from Wednesday to Sunday from 18:00. During the summer
months, weather permitting, we are delighted to welcome you to our atmospheric garden and
terrace.

Groups & Events

Groups and special occasions are also warmly welcomed at Restaurant On Cru. Our
restaurant in Rotterdam is available for hire for corporate gatherings, weddings, celebrations
and other events. We are happy to work with you to create the right setting, bringing together
food, wine and hospitality for the occasion.
The restaurant is normally closed on Mondays and Tuesdays, but we are happy to open on
request for groups, exclusive gatherings and events. Please contact us by email to discuss your
wishes and the possibilities.

Wine & Gastronomy

Great wine is inseparable from the gastronomy of On Cru. Our extensive wine list offers a
carefully curated selection from Champagne, Burgundy, Bordeaux, the Rhône and Loire,
complemented by exceptional wines from other international wine regions. We also serve a
changing selection of wines by the glass.
Led by Denise, our front-of-house team brings the flavours from the kitchen into harmony with
our wines. We are happy to recommend the perfect wine to accompany your dishes, allowing
wine and gastronomy to complement one another throughout your lunch or dinner.
Honest, pure food, exceptional wines, a comfortable interior and effortless service. Come
together in the living room of Rotterdam on the Haringvliet: Kelvin, Denise and the Restaurant
On Cru team look forward to welcoming you.
