VISIT...
BEURSPLEIN
In the very heart of Rotterdam lies Beursplein, the city’s bustling shopping centre. Here you can shop 7 days a week and parking is no problem around Beursplein. Below street level on Coolsingel, you will
find the famous Beurstraverse. As well as the Beurstraverse, known
locally as the ‘Koopgoot’, Beursplein shopping centre also includes
the Beursgallery and The Mall.
NOSTRA
Beursplein is characterized by its diversity in all fields. In addition to
all the major designer names and department stores that are amply
represented here, you will also find shops with an amazing variety
of goods.
THE FASHION
DISTRICT
Coffee has been the grand passion of Simon Lévelt ( Beurstraverse
no. 19) for 200 years. Tea and coffee from all corners of the earth are
available here. And that’s not all. Concern for people and the environment receives priority for all its products. A little further you will find
Nubian Queen (Hoogstraat 1227, The Gallery). The best shop if you
are looking for the perfect make-up for a darker skin. During one of
their treatments, you can learn everything about ethnic cosmetics and
experience the warm enthusiasm of all those working at Nubian Queen.
CHIC
Stroll along rows of boutiques and trendy stores, interspersed with
inviting lunchrooms and unique gift shops. In the space of just a few
years, this area between Kruiskade and Van Oldenbarneveltstraat has
evolved into a true Mecca for fashion enthusiasts.
BEURSPLEIN
Hungry? Enjoy one of the famous ice-creams or delicious Luik waffle
of Häagen Dazs Café (no. 65), situated in the heart of the Beurstraverse. An appetizing Italian lunch can be enjoyed at Café Domani in
The Mall. If you are looking for attractive, sporty fashion and underwear, take a look in Björn Borg (Beurspassage no. 11 and 12), while
those seeking more classic clothing can enjoy themselves to their
heart’s content at Gant (Beurspassage 16).

VAN OLDENBARNEVELTSTRAAT AND SURROUNDING AREA
KRUISKADE
What is a woman without a bag? At Bags & the City (no. 97) they are
well aware of this and that is why they stock a wide range of bags,
made from various materials, and matching accessories. Van Dijk
(no. 105) is a dream for the shopper who loves international fashion.
In addition to Wendela van Dijk’s own label, you will find Helmut Lang,
Costume National and Martin Margiela, et cetera. There is a second
branch at number 146. At Roush (no. 93) you can find many Scandinavian labels, such as Bruuns Bazaar and Day. They also stock exclusive
brands like Stella McCartney and Marc Jacobs. For famous designers
as Dries van Noten, AF Vandervorst, Comme des Garçons and Martin
Margiela you have to go to Prague (no. 119b). Give your poor feet a
rest at lunchroom Nostra (no. 127a), where you can enjoy a delicious
cappuccino, sandwich or salad, in the company of fellow fashionistas.
Wolford (no. 88) is the brand for luxurious and comfortable stockings,
lingerie and topwear. They collaborate with such designers as Valentino and Kenzo for their exclusive underwear. Shoe store Shoebaloo

COOLSINGEL
Fashion, interiors, perfumes, accessories and books all under one roof
and everything of a high quality? That could only be the Bijenkorf
(Coolsingel 105). You can recover from the overwhelming experience
in the in-store restaurant La Ruche. A department store of a completely different order is Studio Hergebruik (no. 47), which sells only
designer clothing, furniture and accessories made from recycled materials.

and specialised shops, including those of various international chains,

jeans, has a place of its own in the Replay Store (no. 73a). It stocks
men’s, women’s and children’s fashion. For a big collection of G-Star

Just to the east of the well-known shopping streets in the city centre
you will find a wealth of unique shops with a bold range of products.

MAAGD VAN HOLLAND KWARTIER
Idiosyncratic is the keyword that links all the shops, galleries and catering establishments in this compact and trendy shopping area. The
range is tremendously varied, so just go and explore for yourself. You’ll
be in for a surprise! A couple of tips to get you started: Full of atmosphere and colour, that is how you would describe Pronkjuweel (Pannekoekstraat 35a), where a colourful collection of beads, jewellery and
accessories pays tribute to feminine beauty. At Toaster (Pannekoekstraat 38a) you can relax in one of the comfy settees and enjoy a delicious double-thick toasted sandwich. The perfect place for shoppers
to take a break! Limited edition sneakers, cool going-out clothes and
work by contemporary - Rotterdam – designers can be found at I am
Fool (Pannekoekstraat 80), with its equally idiosyncratic design. End a
day in the MaHo in style at Level (Pannekoekstraat 76a). Sink into one
of the orange bucket seats and enjoy the delicious cocktails and snacks.

Selexyz Donner bookstore (Lijnbaan 150), with its 11 floors, is the
largest bookshop in the Netherlands. Here you can also browse through
a wide selection of CDs and DVDs or even recharge your batteries in
the coffee shop. It’s clear from the striking frontage of Sevenply (Binnenwegplein 20c) what the store is all about: skating! In addition to
many boards, you will also find shoes and clothes from well-known
skate brands. At Episode (Oude Binnenweg 144a), you can have lots
of fun looking through the vintage clothing: plenty of ladies and

If it’s shoes you’re looking for, try Betsy Palmer (no. 9a). Here it will
be difficult to choose between all the mules, pumps and boots from
well-known makes, as well as the store’s own BPM brand. Right next
door, Margreeth Olsthoorn (no. 5a) has her boutique. Her stock
includes clothes bearing the quality labels Martin Margiela and Day.
Attractive underwear can be found across the road, at Marlies Dekkers (no. 2). Beautiful, striking and saucy lingerie in an equally beautiful and saucy store… At Toko 94 (no. 94) you can take a break and
admire your purchases over a hip cocktail or something from the tropical-modern menu, the ingredients for which are purchased from
tokos in Rotterdam. Design gallery Vivid (William Boothlaan 17a)
not only has exhibition space, but also a shop section with a distinctive
selection of contemporary design. At NieuweOntwerpers.nl (William Boothlaan 13a), young fashion talents show off their unique creations – therefore a good place to make some new discoveries!

magnificent historic neighbourhood, where you can shop in fitting
style. Antique shops and craftsmen are setting up business in Delfshaven, in the midst of friendly bars and attractive pavement cafes.
Worth knowing: many of the (antique) shops have irregular opening
times and sometimes also open on Sundays.
