Jamey Benett, International restaurant at Plaats square, The Hague, Netherlands
Jamey Benett is an international restaurant on Plaats square where chefs cook dishes from around the world using fresh ingredients in a visible open kitchen. Leather Chesterfield couches, wooden tables, and working fireplaces create an informal setting for dining and gathering throughout the day.
This location once housed the Gnome Bar, a secret meeting spot for intelligence agents during a different era. The space evolved into Juliana's restaurant before becoming Jamey Benett in 2016 with a new international focus.
The restaurant brings together locals, travelers, and professionals who gather at shared tables and around the bar. The open kitchen and warm interior with fireplaces create an inviting space where different groups naturally mix and meet.
The restaurant operates from morning until after midnight, serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner with dishes cooked in a Mibrasa charcoal oven. Meals are often presented on sharing platters designed for groups to eat together and try multiple flavors at once.
The menu features unexpected combinations like raw tuna pizza topped with truffle mayonnaise and pork ribs glazed with cola reduction. Fresh oysters are available all day long as a counterpoint to these bold and unconventional creations.
