At Lowlander we explore the power of nature to deliver flavour. Inspired by the creativity of chefs that use botanicals to add depth to their dishes,
Discover some of our favourite beer and food pairings that open up the minds – and palates – of all those that love to explore. Dishes that celebrate the seasonal versatility of plants, herbs and spices. Because we believe not just every great drink but also every great dish starts with a plant.
Or let our Lowlander Beer & Food Navigator serve as an inspiration for your own creations. In true seafarer style each Lowlander beer can be linked to a part of the world and therefore a direction of the Lowlander Beer & Food Navigator.

BOTANIA FOOD & BEER GARDEN
In collaboration with The Streetfood Club we’ve opened the doors of Botania Food & Beer Garden. A green oasis right in the historical heart of Utrecht where botanically brewed beers and naturally good food meet. Enter the wonderous world of botanicals with us and explore every vibrant flavour and fragrant nature has to offer, served right at your table. Opened for breakfast, lunch, dinner & drinks seven days a week.
At Lowlander we cook for people who want delicious, unfussy but incredibly flavourful dishes. At the heart of everything we do is a belief that when we combine nature and a little bit of Dutch ingenuity the possibilities are endless. That’s why our aim is to open the minds & palates of explorers with beer & food pairings that celebrate the flavours of nature.
