What makes Vlees & Co a great choice upon arriving in Nijmegen?
A steakhouse in Nijmegen that is so centrally located offers an ideal combination of convenience and quality. You step off the train and within fifteen minutes you're seated for one of the best meat dishes the city has to offer. That makes us a logical choice for both spontaneous visits and planned evenings out.
But accessibility is only part of the story. What keeps guests coming back time and again is the complete experience. Think premium cattle breeds such as Scottish Angus and Japanese Wagyu, expertly prepared on the charcoal grill. The staff are trained as meat sommeliers and can tell you exactly where each cut comes from, how it was raised, and how it is best prepared.
Whether you're planning a romantic dinner, meeting colleagues for a business meal, or simply want to enjoy an exceptional meal after a day in the city, the combination of a central location and a high-quality experience makes it an easy choice.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I also walk in at Vlees & Co in Nijmegen without a reservation?
Walking in spontaneously is sometimes possible, but we advise against it during busy times such as Friday and Saturday evenings or on public holidays. There is a good chance we will be fully booked. To be sure of a table — and to ensure that everything is ready for you — it is best to reserve in advance via our website.
How far in advance do I need to make a table reservation?
For a weekday evening, a reservation one to two days in advance is generally sufficient. For weekend evenings, public holidays, or large groups, we recommend reserving at least a week ahead. This ensures we can prepare your evening optimally, from the right table arrangement to any special requests.
Is Vlees & Co also suitable for large groups or business dinners?
Absolutely. We regularly welcome groups for business dinners, team outings, and special occasions. For group reservations, we recommend contacting us in advance so we can properly arrange the seating, menu, and any additional wishes. This way we ensure a flawless evening for every group.
What is the difference between Scottish Angus and Japanese Wagyu, and how do I choose the right cut?
Scottish Angus is known for its pronounced beef flavor, firm bite, and beautiful marbling — ideal for those who love a classic, robust steak. Japanese Wagyu has an extremely fine fat marbling that results in an almost buttery texture and a rich umami flavor. Our meat sommeliers are happy to help you choose based on your taste preference, desired doneness, and the type of evening you have in mind.
Are there also options for guests who don't eat meat?
Although meat plays the absolute starring role in our restaurant, we make sure that guests with other preferences also have a great evening. Please contact our staff when making your reservation or upon arrival to discuss the current options. We are happy to think along with you so that everyone at the table is well taken care of.
What is the best way to get from Nijmegen Centraal to Vlees & Co when it is raining or the weather is bad?
In bad weather, a taxi or a ridesharing service such as Uber is the most comfortable choice — you arrive dry at the door. The bus is also a great alternative; the city lines depart directly from the station and travel close to the city center. That way you never have to stand in the rain and you still arrive quickly and relaxed.
Can I park my car all evening without extra costs or time limits?
That depends on the parking location you choose. Most parking garages in the Nijmegen city center charge an hourly rate without a strict time limit, so you can relax and enjoy your evening. Check the rates and opening hours in advance via the Nijmegen Parkeren website or a navigation app such as Google Maps, so you won't be caught off guard when leaving the garage.
