OUR TERRACE

On the most beautiful square of the Netherlands, time is always well spent. The buzzing of a full terrace, the sun shining down upon your face and a view of the beautiful Basilica of Our Lady. Team Charlemagne are ready from 9 in the morning onwards, to serve you Mocca d’Or coffee, a piece of local pie from Patisserie Lemmens and a sturdy breakfast.

Both our lunch- and dinner menu offer great options for everybody. We put special focus on local products, classic recipes with our very own twist and seasonal beers and wines. Please don’t forget to have a look at our specials. Both our kitchen staff as our bartenders put all their creativity in these wonderful dishes and drinks.

As a bonus, the chairs on our terrace have pillows in them. This way, you can enjoy our city in your most beautiful dress, without those horrid rotan imprints on your legs!

OUR HISTORY

This picture was taken on the 11th of May 1940. On this day, a bomb landed on Café Charlemagne, after being dropped by an English bomber.

Café Charlemagne has existed for over a 100 years. Located in a monumental building on the Onze Lieve Vrouweplein, the name is derived from Charles the Great. Otherwise known as Charlemagne, the king of the Carolingian empire visited his ‘court’ in Maastricht regularly. This was situated on the Vrijthof. Rumour has it, Charles and other local noblemen would discuss current political affairs of the city in the spot that currently houses Café Charlemagne.

Only a few knew that there was a secret “Tavern” already...
