For an easy and good price/quality meal, I recommend Hudson. The hamburgers are the best, but they also have other dishes like steak, chili con carne and fish. The atmosphere is very relaxed and many expats come here. The wine they serve is also ok.

In the year 1280 AD, the gate to the outer courtyard or Buitenhof served as the main entrance to the castle of the Counts of Holland, known as the Binnenhof today. In 1428, this ‘Front Gate to the Court’ also became a prison. It was where defaulters were incarcerated and suspected criminals awaited their trials. A century later, the gate was expanded to include a section that held the gaols (jail cells) and the courthouse. The Prison Gate has been a museum since 1882.
