Celebrate your birthday in a restaurant

Do you want to do something special for your birthday but don't have the space at home? Celebrating a birthday in a restaurant is the perfect way to bring large groups together for your ultimate party. One of the main reasons for celebrating your birthday at a restaurant is to enjoy a good meal in a fun setting with helium balloons on the table and your age in large foil balloons next to them. We do this almost every day at Rotterdam birthday restaurants such as 1NUL8, Cafe In The City, The Oyster Club, The Harbor Club, Vandal, Finca, etc.

We have looked for restaurants for you where you can eat for free on your birthday. They often do this at world restaurants with the All You Can Eat concept. There is only one such restaurant in Rotterdam and that is Restaurant Cathay in Prins Alexander. If you celebrate your birthday there with 4 others, you get a 50% discount.

If you really want to eat for free on your birthday, you have to travel a little further to Wereldrestaurant Altijd in Capelle aan den IJssel, where the birthday boy or girl eats for free when he/she comes to eat with 4 others. The birthday boy or girl also eats for free at Eat Palazzo in Schiedam and they are even more reasonable there. This way you only have to eat there with 2 other people and you can eat there for free on Sunday and Tuesday if your birthday is on Monday. Even if Monday is a holiday.
