Situated at the heart of the vibrant city of Leiden stands a cherished national monument, steeped in history. This iconic landmark, nestled in the bustling student-centric center of Leiden, holds a special place in the hearts of locals and visitors alike. Studio Modijefsky is thrilled by the prospects this location offers; a place where a diverse array of people, from residents to young students, from regulars to day-trippers and tourists, gather to savor exceptional coffee, explore specialty beers on tap, indulge dishes from an innovative menu, relish a sun-kissed lunch or drink on the enchanting terrace, or orchestrate memorable events on the inviting first-floor space. Embarking on an exciting journey, Studio Modijefsky is set to create a brand-new, all-encompassing bistro, brasserie, and café within the historic walls. Studio Modijefsky will design every corner of this multifunctional space, including the brasserie, the event space, and all associated design elements, not to forget the captivating outdoor area.
