Welcome to Holland's Best!

See you at this year's Koninginnedag "Queen's Day" celebration at the Murphy Windmill at San Francisco's Golden Gate Park, Saturday, April 27, 2013. Last year's celebration was a huge success! 2013 Queen's Day is going to be the best one yet; a sure can't miss! Bring friends and family to share and experience Dutch culture. Bring CASH as there is no ATM service at the park, and we are not able to process credit card transactions at this location.

With great pleasure we welcome you to the #1 Online Store for Dutch and Indonesian Groceries, Delft Blue China and Netherlands Giftware .

Holland's Best, also known as Holland Pastry & Gift Shop, is located in San Jose, California. We have been serving our Dutch and Indonesian customers since 1949. The comments and suggestions from our customers have helped us to identify areas where improvements could be made in our service. We send our Dutch products to you all over North America!

On September 21, 2007, our big yellow shoe was stolen. Measurements: 6 ft x 3 ft. If you have seen it please let us or the San Jose Police Department know.

The online catalog is our way to acquaint or reacquaint you with Dutch Groceries & Gifts and to give you easy access to our store from the comfort of your home. It is easy to make your order online by simply using the full shopping cart capabilities. We trust Holland’s Best online catalog fills all your product needs. If you are looking for something we do not list, feel free to ask us about it.

Many of the products on the packages use the metric system while Holland’s Best for your convenience uses the imperial system. To assist you we have included a Conversion Table for anyone not familiar with European weights and measures. The conversion forced us to round numbers off to the nearest half of an ounce, so the weights are approximate.

Please visit Holland’s Best if your travels take you to San Jose, California! Remember to bring your ice box or cooler in case you would like to buy some cheese, fish or other refrigerated or frozen items.

Sincerely,
Klaas Mensonides
