No plans yet? Good. At De Utrechter, you can stop in for food, drinks, live music or the monthly Sunday pub quiz, and see where the afternoon goes.

Laughing together is a good start. At Comedy & Dinner: The Writers Room, dinner at Venster comes with new material from emerging stand-up talent.

Fancy an evening that could go in any direction? Restobar Vivid on Nobelstraat is there for a good glass of wine with bites, a full dinner or a cocktail with a little dancing. Mediterranean flavours, a lively atmosphere, right in the city centre.

Clearing out the attic, or looking for a vintage find? On 25 October, Betonnerie is back at Beton-T: a hundred stalls full of second-hand goods, live music and good food. Free entry and always a good atmosphere.

De Hondekop: Utrecht's living room, where local food and flavours from around the world come together. From sunny mornings to cosy evenings, there is always room here for an unexpected encounter.

Morrow: at this new hotspot, aesthetics, a relaxed atmosphere and Mediterranean comfort food come together perfectly. This is a place where you'll easily end up staying a little longer.

Tucked away in the creative Rotsoord neighbourhood, you'll find LE:EN. Share Asian-inspired dishes, enjoy a cocktail and let yourself be surprised by the street art around the corner.
