Den BurgWhat we like about Bakker Timmer on Hogerstraat? You can pick something up or settle into the tearoom. The selection includes fresh bread, filled rolls and cakes from its own bakery. You can sit down in the tearoom for breakfast, lunch or coffee while visiting the village centre. This branch also sells ice cream, offering another option for a shopping break. Timmer has several shops across Texel; the Hogerstraat location provides both food to take away and somewhere to pause over something to eat or drink.
