It's an indoor food concept, with various food stands you can choose from. De Hallen are old tram garages that have been transformed to spaces for various businesses: food hallen is one of them, but also a hair salon, a library and coffee place, a movie theater, a bike shop, and art galleries. It's worth the visit!
