OUR VISION
Creating a community with VR-minded VRiends. With the VRcafe spread across our entire country, VRiends are born and connected. It's more than a place for gaming; it's a hub for socializing, sportsmanship, and fun.
HOW IT HAPPENED
One warm day in the summer, our Final Bosses Dirk Kuiper and Sjouke op de Weegh were dozing under an apple tree in a field when a pair of VR headsets fell on their heads: all of a sudden, the dew-dotted grass was not around them anymore, the canals and the old buildings of Haarlem were out of sight and a whole new world extended before their eyes. It was a world of bright colours and infinite possibilities, where the rules of nature could be simulated for fun or outright ignored for an even crazier experience. After a stroll around this world which could have lasted minutes or long days, they emerged from it with an idea: “Eureka!” they exclaimed, as they decided to bring the fruit of that peculiar tree to the centre of the city and build the most welcoming café around it, making sure everyone else would be able, at will, to receive the gift they had stumbled upon. Whether you believe this story or not, the VRcafe now stands right there, in front of Haarlem station, still providing the most exciting and friendly VR experience for all its customers. Feel like joining, yet?
OUR MISSION
Many people around the world can only dream of affording the equipment required to play VR every day, but we still believe everyone should have access to such exciting, game-changing experiences. That is why we offer a wide range of VR games and activities at affordable prices. We also aim to create a community of friends and collaborators who are just as excited as we are about VR gaming, so we can organise events, share ideas, grow and keep playing together. For us, the first step in this journey was to have one cosy place where to gather and combine futuristic VR games with the familiarity of a café: drinks, snacks, comfort and friendly faces.

Over het algemeen kost gamen in VR bij ons €39,95 per speelveld per uur. Dit is echter zonder enkele begeleiding. Ook is dit alleen mogelijk als je al bekend bent bij ons en wij uitleg hebben gegeven hoe je zelf tussen de spellen kunt schakelen.
However, the prices for VR usually depend on a number of factors: the chosen game format, the time period, the number of people in a booking and the number of playing spaces you want to reserve. For the exact prices on each type of booking, we advise that you go to our booking page .

Time flows much faster while you’re dreaming, remember? Now, that is exactly why most of our options start from 60 (real-life) minutes. However, we often see that 60 minutes make for a rather tight experience, so 90 minutes (our intermediate option) is more ideal. Children in particular can go for quite some time while playing VR, so we recommend a booking of at least 90 minutes for children or kids' parties, but 120 minutes is also perfectly fine. We advise to make this choice based on budget rather than tolerance or eagerness.
VR Racing is the only option with bookings starting from 30 minutes, since the experience is often described as “intense”.
