History

Founding of 1NUL8 Meent

Van der Sluis had previously founded the all-day restaurant 1NUL8 Meent together with hospitality entrepreneur Ad Schaap, founder of the restaurant chain De Beren. Loveriks later became involved in this establishment. In early 2019, Loveriks and Van der Sluis opened the high-end restaurant Vandal. In October 2022, the venue was forced to close following severe water damage and electrical problems.

Founding of 1NUL8 Basement

Following the closure of Vandal, the partners developed a new concept that emphasized the central role of the bar. This resulted in the opening of 1NUL8 Basement, which features a large open kitchen and a prominent light-green, wave-shaped bar. The interior was designed to encourage guests to stay for cocktails after dining. On Thursdays the restaurant hosts cocktail nights, while on Fridays and Saturdays a DJ booth is in operation, targeting a late-evening audience. [4]
