Amazing supermarket with fresh food from mainly local producers. If you walk there, you might want to try everything. Beware: the prices are equally high as the quality.
Biggest drugstore in the neighborhood: skin care, shampoos, toothpaste, women's and men's health etc. It's not a pharmacy. For medicines you'll have to go to an 'apotheek'.

The nearest supermarket. It's smaller than the regular AH supermarkets, but it will do for the quick stop, for sure. On a hot day you can cool off here, sometimes it's close to freezing inside!

The best supermarket in the area. Not the cheapest, but you'll find all the things you need here. For cheap choice, take the Euroshopper label (red), for the less expensive the AH-label (blue).
