Test Site Rotterdam continues to evolve

Mayor Aboutaleb gets Rotterdam’s Tour Café off to a head start

Two new projects have recently arrived at Test Site Rotterdam. With the opening of the Milk Bar in the RiverClub Gallery and the opening of the Tour Café in espresso bar Lungo, the area is really starting to buzz.

Milk Bar
The-first-of-its-kind Milk Bar opens its door in the Schieblok area of Rotterdam. This pop-up space will run for the summer, inviting people to enjoy a wide range of fast nutritious milk drinks such as smoothies, milk, and yoghurt made of local, fresh ingredients. Yet, its aim doesn’t only lie in providing fun & healthy drinks but also in bringing a lively vibe into a rather neglected part of the city. – More information: themilkbar.nl

Tour Café
During the Tour de France (from 30 June – 22 July), espresso bar Lungo (Delftseplein 39) will be transformed into an arty paradise for cycle racing fans. Visitors to the Tour Café can follow each stage of Le Tour daily from 15.00 on a mega-screen in the café. And there’ll be plenty of entertainment afterwards, with lively chats with invited experts about the highs and lows of the day, the heroism of La Grande Boucle and their passion for Cycling and Rotterdam. And that’s not all – there’s live music on certain dates, and a Tour Quiz for all cycling fanatics. – More information: www.tourcafe.nl
