Rotterdam is a really nice city for shopping. There are several shopping centers in the city, all with their own charm. Shopping in Rotterdam is fun for everyone! Whether you like fashion, good food or looking for a nice gift, it’s all there! In this blog we take you along our favorite Rotterdam shopping centers.

Koopgoot

A well-known shopping center in Rotterdam is of course the Koopgoot (see picture above). Everyone who goes shopping in Rotterdam knows the Koopgoot: the half sunken shopping street. Here you will find the usual big chain stores, but also smaller charming stores such as I Am where you can score the best fashion accessories and ice cream parlor Belicio Cheatday where you are totally pampered.

Lijnbaan

Perhaps even better known than the Koopgoot is Lijnbaan. Here you will also find the larger chains like Pull&Bear, H&M and Hugo Bos, but also take a look at Hollister Rotterdam, River Island and Snipes.

Market Hall

The Market Hall is one of my favorite places in Rotterdam. Besides delicious food, you can also find special gifts here. How about the delicious coconut balls from Madame Cocos or the Portuguese delicacies from Natamania? But also the syrup waffles from Goudstroop and the sweets from Snoepkont are fun to give. Want to buy something for a kitchen prince or princess? Then you will definitely succeed at Kookwinkel Habitas.

Alexandrium Mall

A day of home shopping? Then Woonmall Alexandrium in Rotterdam is the place to be! But also for great gifts, clothing, personal care and good food you’ve come to the right place. There is plenty to do and experience! Here you can find an overview of all stores in shopping mall Alexandrium.

Zuidplein Mall

Shopping center Zuidplein is the largest indoor shopping center in the Netherlands. This beautifully renovated shopping center is a true shopping mecca for shopping enthusiasts. Shopping in Rotterdam is nowhere as extensive as here. Click here if you want to know which stores are located in the mall. The area around the mall will be renovated in the coming years to make it even more fun!

Witte de Withstraat

The Witte de Withstraat is one of the nicest streets in Rotterdam. This is really the entertainment heart of the city with lots of restaurants and art galleries. But you can also find some nice stores in between. Paraddy is a dance (ballet) specialty store and at Goliath you can find nice shoes. R.S.I The Attraction is all about skateboarding, snowboarding, roller skating and stepping. But you can also score awesome kites and Frisbees! And for great gifts and home accessories, Dirkx is the place to be!

The Green Passage

De Groene Passage is a collection of stores that want the best for you and the environment. You will find organic stores, beautiful home accessories and much more!

Rotterdam for a day

A day of shopping in Rotterdam is definitely worthwhile, but Rotterdam has a lot more to offer! A while ago I went on a trip to Rotterdam. A blog came out of that which you can find here. I love the industrial of the port and special architecture. Well, Rotterdam has plenty of that!
