My name is Tommy and I am your host. For my sport, ice hockey, I lived in Vienna, Austria and Toronto, Canada from 2015 to 2020. For more than five years I put everything aside for my ice hockey career. It was all or nothing for me. When I noticed that I would not reach the absolute top in ice hockey, I decided to return to the Netherlands and focus on my social career. Back in the Netherlands, I first worked for two years in our family business. At the end of 2021, a unique opportunity arose to take over a restaurant at this location in Spaubeek at the age of 21. Since we were in the middle of a lockdown at the time, it was not obvious to start a restaurant. However, I saw it as an opportunity that would not present itself a second time. Not long after my return to the Netherlands, the longing for the many cozy, typical Canadian barbecue and grill restaurants began. The atmosphere, hospitality, personal attention, but especially the overall experience of dining out that you get in Canada, was something that I missed here. We used the first six months of 2022 to completely renovate the restaurant, to create the typical warm and cozy atmosphere and to reintroduce the barbecue concept. Unique to the restaurant is that you can grill meat, fish and vegetables at your own table and at your own pace. This together with your friends, family or colleagues. Together with the Jack's team, we are happy to ensure that you have a unique grill experience!\"><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome to Restaurant Jack\u2019s in Spaubeek At Restaurant Jack\u2019s, Canadian warmth meets the Burgundian spirit of Limburg.
