Wine bar and café-restaurant

A relaxed wine bar in the heart of town

Mej. Janssen is a convivial café-restaurant, and a relaxed place for a good glass of wine. You will find us on the Duizelsteeg, in the little alley behind the Korenmarkt in the centre of Arnhem.

Our wines come from France, Italy, Spain, Germany, Chile and South Africa, among others. Red, white, rosé or something sparkling? Much of the list is poured by the glass; the rest you order by the bottle.

Our staff are happy to recommend the best wine for your dish.
