Out to Lunch Bunch
Interested in exploring new restaurants in
and around The Hague? Join us once a month
for Lunch Bunch. A different restaurant
is selected each month on varying days.
Recommendations are always welcome to
Greetje Engelsman at outtolunchbunch@
awcthehague.org. NOTE: Food and drink
are at your own expense. Deadline for
registration is THREE days before the
lunch. Due to the continuing uncertainty
of the COVID-19 situation, Lunch Bunch
may need to be cancelled.
September: This month’s choice is
Augustus (www.eetcafe-augustus.nl), situated
on the Reinkenstraat, a little “Fred”
with lots of good shops and old-fashioned
quality. Augustus proudly offers an extensive
lunch menu of sandwiches, pastas, salads,
wraps and poke bowls. Try the toastie
with gorgonzola and banana! If the weather
cooperates, we’ll enjoy lunch on their garden
terrace.

Harbor. Opened in 1996, this Zeeland family
seafood restaurant purchases their fish

anyone in Walkie Talkies who’d
like to enjoy lunch after their morning walk
around Scheveningen.

Thirsty Thursday
We’re hoping to host our popular Thirsty
Thursday evenings once again beginning
in October. This social networking event is
held at a different restaurant in The Hague
on the third Thursday of each month, excluding
holidays. No definitive plans
have been made yet for October because
of the ever-changing coronavirus restrictions.
Please keep an eye out for updates
on our online calendar, Facebook page and
eNews and plan to RSVP on Wild Apricot
to receive an email with the restaurant information
closer to the date. Questions
or suggestions? Contact Wynne Davis
at vicepresident@awcthehague.org.
Walkie Talkies
Whether you count your steps or just want to
take a socially distanced walk with friends,
the Monday morning Walkie Talkies is
a fun and healthy way to start the week.
The group meets in front of the Clubhouse
before heading out promptly to walk to
various destinations in the area, usually
racking up 10,000 steps along the way. No
RSVP is necessary. Contact Emily van
Eerten at walkietalkies@awcthehague.org
to be added to the WhatsApp group for last
minute updates and cancellations.

Wassenaar Coffee &
Conversation
Do you live in Wassenaar and environs
and long for the camaraderie of the AWC
without the trip to the Clubhouse? Join
your neighbors for a casual coffee and
conversation at a Member’s home. Since
the location and capacity changes every
month, contact Suzanne Dundas at
chatcraftcake@awcthehague.org if you are
