Our Story

Discover the passion and vision behind headphmlrn, where healthy eating meets exceptional taste in the heart of Groningen.

Redefining Healthy Dining

headphmlrn was founded with a simple yet revolutionary idea: healthy food should never be a compromise. Located on Hoofdstraat in the vibrant city of Groningen, we've made it our mission to prove that nutritious meals can be every bit as delicious and satisfying as traditional cuisine.

Our journey began when our founders recognised a gap in the market for truly exceptional healthy dining. Too often, health-conscious restaurants sacrifice flavour for nutrition, or vice versa. We refused to accept this false choice and set out to create something entirely different.

Every dish at headphmlrn is carefully crafted by our team of skilled chefs working alongside certified nutritionists. This unique collaboration ensures that every meal not only tastes extraordinary but also provides optimal nutritional benefits for your health and wellbeing.
