Incredible vegan haute cuisine - Edit
Honestly the best vegan food I ever had - certainly in terms of taste variety, intensity and composition. Everything went really well together and was complimented perfectly by the drinks. I have not had such great pairings ever since I became vegan. Simply amazing! And incredible value for money, too!

Amazing fine dining! - Edit
Interesting location at the back of the building but we were welcomed by the very friendly staff in a cosy interior where we had an amazing romantic fine dining dinner. We endulged the surprise menu with original and tasty vegan fine cruise. They advertise as 5 course but we got even 2 additional amuses, a selection of breads and a sorbet.

Treat yourself to this amazing surprise!
Pros: Also non alcoholic drinks arrangement

Vegan fine dining - Edit
We were only in Groningen for a couple of days and in corona-times, so we made sure that we had a reservation (we went to Achterwerk on a saturday). We had a great evening. The
Read moreatmosphere was nice, the staff was friendly, they knew what they were talking about and the food was delicious ánd looked amazing. Bonus for us was that you could choose the wine pairing with half full glasses. We were both a bit tired and not in the mood for too much alcohol so this was perfect. They also had a version with non-alcoholic drinks.
Pros: Excellent food, Friendly staff

Uniek, creatief , vegan eten - Edit
Creatieve, lekkere vegan gerechten. Absoluut niet de gemiddelde vegan-burger tent. Erg leuk om te zien dat vegan eten ook op een creatieve manier kan worden bereid.

Real Fine Dining - Edit
Once you found this spot, prepare for a real exquise dinner evening. This is the best vegan restaurant in Groningen and a place where many vegan cooks in partly vegan restaurants in Groningen hope to find their dream job. Subtle, a wide range of flavours and tastes. Not for a quickie meal or at the end of a busy day, but for a real evening out.

Best vegan food I've ever had - Edit
I held a dinner with about 30 people here to celebrate my PhD graduation. Many non vegans attended (including big meat eating professors) so I wanted to find a place that showed them that vegans really do eat more than carrots and humus. And oh myyy it worked! Literally every single one person was flabbergasted. The food was perfect!! And the place is super cozy. Worth every penny!

A wonderful dining experience - Edit
They were not joking when they said that they were serious about food. I ordered the 5 course surprise menu and my oh my was I beyond pleased. It was worth every penny and more. I thought that the courses would have been in ridiculously small portions but I left the restaurant happy and very full.
Read moreEven as someone who swears on the versatility of vegetables, I was amazed at how well Achterwerk was able to bring their vegan dishes to new heights. Wonderful flavour combinations and textures - every bite was truly an experience.
I would recommend Achterwerk to anyone and everyone
Pros: Beautiful flavours and textures, Worth every penny, Knowledgeable and friendly staff
Cons: none

Best vegan restaurant I ever went to - Edit
Forget the thousands of typical falafel junk food vegan options.
Read moreThis is an Innovative, cozy and fine vegan cuisine experience. The food is absolutely delicious with lots of textures, flavour combinations, and colours. Lots of amazing wines to go with the suprise menu (which is also great as they decrease food waste).
Achterwerk gives a personal service with experienced staff that are passionate and friendly. Knowledge of the staff and service is perfect. Not to mention the location is super cool and the interior design very friendly and comforting.
The only place I have ever been where you can have a proper romantic fine cuisine experience as a vegan. Finally a top dining experience.
Pros: Most innovative unique flavours , Amazing staff, Vegan fine cuisine
Cons: Need to have more restaurants around the country

Fijne plek met heerlijke toetjes! - Edit
We zijn hier 1 keer geweest alleen voor een toetje, maar deze was goddelijk lekker! We komen zeker nog eens terug om te dineren! Enige minpuntje dat het iets aan de dure kant is.

Fine dining - Edit
Verborgen plekje in het centrum maar oh zo leuk. Heerlijk eten. Hele bijzondere gerechten. Allemaal vegan en heerlijke wijntjes daarbij.
Read moreWij kozen een 3 gangen diner ivm tijd. Anders hadden we 4 of 5 genomen. Helaas moesten we toch snel het toetje eten op het eind. Dus neem vooral de tijd en plan niets direct erachteraan.
Er is zelfs een non alcohol wijn arrangement. Lieve bediening ook en lekkere tussengerechten. Wij zaten echt bomvol.

Lekker en bijzonder eten - Edit
Wij hadden huisgemaakte ijsthee en die was heel lekker en werd leuk geserveerd. Het eten was ook heel smakelijk hoewel de kaart wat onduidelijk is met betrekking tot hoofd of bijgerechten. Zeker aan te raden. Bediening was erg vriendelijk maar had iets meer uitleg kunnen geven over het concept voorafgaand aan de bestelling. Gaf wel goede uitleg tijdens het uitserveren.
