What is tastier than the smell of fresh fries? The smell of hand-made fresh fries ofcourse! With that authentic potato-flavour and a crispy edge. That's exactly what we sell at Frietboetiek De Werviaan at Willemsoord 50. Just fries, or in combination with some lovely beef stew or some tasty mayonnaise. Our fries are: - Hand-cut from local potatoes - Made according to traditional methods - Baked in natural oil - Provided with a tasty sauce - Well worth combining with our kroketten, frikandellen or beef stew
