Coffee at Balthazar Science Center

After all the exciting experiences and new lessons, it's good to get something in your stomach. The café serves homemade coffee bread and light lunches as well as smoothies, fruit, juice, coffee or tea. If you and your party would rather sit outside, you can have coffee packed in a basket and enjoy the good things outside. Do you have your own lunch bag? Then you are also welcome to sit down in the café and eat your brought food or coffee.
