Eight evenings every November
Where to eat during GLOW Eindhoven
GLOW takes over the city centre. We are on Kerkstraat, right inside that area — and after a few kilometres in the November cold, a burger is not a luxury.
6 minutes on foot
Six minutes from Emmasingel. Ideal with kids: short museum, then fries.
The Philips Museum sits in the lightbulb factory where it all started in 1891. You walk past radios, televisions, shavers and X-ray equipment, and watch a small lamp maker grow into a global company. Compact, indoors, with a treasure hunt for children built in.
The museum is open Tuesday to Sunday from eleven to five, and on Mondays as well during Dutch school holidays. A visit takes an hour or two. Walk on via De Wal to Kerkstraat afterwards: six minutes, all of it pedestrianised.
We suit the party that has just spent two hours indoors and is now mainly hungry. No reservation, no waiting for a table that has to be free again by seven.
School holidays are the museum's busiest weeks, and the centre's too. Coming with a larger group? Mail ahead — from ten people up we are happy to arrange it in advance.

Nine days every October
Nine days of design across the whole city. We are in the centre, walking distance from the downtown venues and close to the station.
One weekend every October
The finish is on Vestdijk, one block from our door. We are open on the Sunday, all afternoon.
