Re: Hoorn
Hoorn - the 'old part' of town is a really nice quaint place for a quiet wander and a few drinks by the harbour but has no buzz and only a couple of mediocre coffee shops catering for locals / buy and fly's.
Went to a wedding there and stayed a couple of days - the coffee shops are not worth the effort or time searching them out particularly if your making a short visit.
Waste no time and get yourself straight back to Mokum!
