Wat we doen
The Dutch Language Café is the place in The Hague where people of many different nationalities can come together, feel at home, have fun, get to know each other and learn Dutch. All information can be found at: www.dutchlanguagecafe.com
Since July 2024, and thanks to a successful crowdfunding campaign, we have our own café in the centre of The Hague! Come by, drink coffee, play games, and have a chat, even outside of the usual events! We are open Wednesday to Saturday 11:00-23:00 and Sunday 12:00-17:00, and we're located at Herengracht 13A.

Chess club | Play chess at Dutch Language Café ♟️
Dutch Language Café, Herengracht 13 A, The Hague, NLThe DLC chess club has moved to Wednesday evenings! No matter how much experience you have, come and enjoy some mind puzzles, speak Dutch (all levels welcome) and meet nice people :)
### What will we do?
At the chess club, I will give tips to improve your personal chess skills, we will solve (sometimes) tricky chess puzzles and we will play informal chess games. Is chess completely new to you or are you just starting out? You are more than welcome to join us! We will be happy to teach you. 😊
Cost and sign up
The chess club costs €6 or included in your DLC membership, and you'll need to get a ticket here: https://dutchlanguagecafe.com/events/chess/### Planning
The chess club will last from 19:00 to 21:00 but you are welcome to play for longer!
### Dutch Level
Chess is, of course, a mind sport. But outside the games we can talk Dutch! After each chess game, you have the chance to discuss the game in Dutch with your opponent. And of course you can also talk about other things than chess when you are not playing :). When speaking we try to speak mostly Dutch, but we speak slowly and help you along the way. If you are comfortable with a basic level of Dutch, this event is good for you! It certainly doesn’t have to be perfect. We are all there to learn :).
See you then!Here are some handy chess terms in English and Dutch:
