Beach cafes profit despite grey skies

Despite this summer’s cool and rainy weather, Dutch seaside café owners booked a combined turnover of €121m thanks to increasingly up-scale interiors, diverse menus and a longer opening season.


The figures were published by the seaside café trade organisation on Wednesday and cover the country’s 360 establishments.
