The Hague Favourite: Jamey Bennet

July 19, 2016 by 30smagazine Leave a Comment

The Hague has a new kid on the block: Kitchen & Bar Jamey Bennet. A few weeks ago I went to check out this new hot spot and I was pleasantly surprised. My verdict? Jamey Bennet is definitely a keeper with its hip interior, great ambiance and delicious food. On a weekday night the crowd is a mix of expats, 30-50 year-olds, and a few students.
