ManicOrganic – Koffie & Karma Events met smaak, karakter en impact

A place for organizations that are looking for something different than a standard meeting room or event location. With us, you can combine meetings, encounters, dining, celebrations, and making an impact all in one location.

A church with a story
Our former Help and Salvation Church was built around 1960 on the historic Schakenbosch, an estate where care, recovery, rest, and nature have been central for decades.

Over the years, church services and the monumental Flentrop organ could be heard here, but also opera choirs, concerts, and other music. There was dancing, art exhibitions, celebrations, and above all, a lot of gatherings.

The estate itself also holds a special place in Dutch history. During World War II, the Central Bureau of Statistics found temporary shelter here.

Today we write a new chapter.

With Coffee & Karma and ManicOrganic, we are turning this historic place back into a venue for meeting, inspiration, culture, delicious food, and events with a positive impact.

The church is not a standard or sleekly designed event hall, but rather a characterful space with history and its own identity. This makes it a blank canvas with character: a place that can be rearranged over and over for a meeting, conference, presentation, dinner, staff party, festival, or complete company event.

Our event space consists of the characterful festival church, an atmospheric entrance with a coffee bar, and a spacious outdoor terrace. Further along the estate, we have additional meeting and breakout rooms.

With about 100 private parking spaces and a central location in the Randstad, the venue is excellently suited for both small gatherings and larger business events.

From boardroom to company festival
The strength of our location lies in its flexibility.

Start the morning with a strategy session or meeting, split the group into different breakout rooms, have lunch together in the greenery, and transform the church in the afternoon or evening into a complete dinner, party, or festival.

From an inspiring away day or executive meeting to a staff party, product launch, customer day, conference, anniversary, or company festival: we build the event around your organization.

We can fully relieve you in terms of catering, hospitality, production, setup, technology, entertainment, and activities. Together with our regular production and event partners, we can execute an event from A to Z.

One location, short lines, and above all: as little hassle for you as possible.

Experience that goes beyond our own front door
Behind Coffee & Karma stands ManicOrganic, with over 16 years of experience in catering and events and decades of hospitality experience.

In those years, we worked on small-scale business meetings, large public productions, festivals, campaigns, and international events. We had the pleasure of collaborating with various organizations, brands, foundations, and public clients.

For example, we provided public catering during large dance events in Istanbul for One Colony, with events hosting up to around 15,000 visitors. For Triodos Bank, we managed the Triodos Festival with food, drinks, bars, party tents, and hospitality for employees, family members, and thousands of visitors.

Additionally, we worked on events and campaigns for, among others, the Nature & Environment Foundation, the National Postcode Lottery, and commercial partners such as Heineken and KLM. We also provided hospitality and catering for occasions related to the Royal House and several Dutch Prime Ministers.

For years, we have also been active at a large part of the Dutch dance and food festivals with our food trucks and catering concepts. Our sustainable approach has been recognized with awards for sustainable entrepreneurship and the 24Kitchen Food Truck Awards.

This broad experience now comes together in one place.

At Landgoed Voorlei, we bring hospitality, catering, events, sustainability, social involvement, and creativity under one roof. The knowledge and network we have built over the years are now utilized to help organizations create events that are not only well-organized but also truly make an impact.

Real food. Real people. Real impact.
Sustainability is not just a separate paragraph at the bottom of the quote for us. It has been in the DNA of ManicOrganic for years.

Our mission is clear:

Real food caterer. Impact maker.

We work as much as possible with local and sustainable products, minimize waste, and consciously consider transport, materials, energy, and social impact.

Organizing sustainably does not mean that you have to compromise on taste, quality, or enjoyment.

On the contrary.

Our catering is colorful, generous, contemporary, and above all, very tasty. From breakfast and lunch to street food, walking dinners, drinks, festival catering, and complete dinners.

But impact goes beyond just food for us.

We actively engage in various good causes and social initiatives and seek to connect companies, guests, local partners, and organizations that want to create positive change whenever possible.

Where desired, we can also make the impact of an event transparent with our own sustainability certificate. We can organize additional climate compensation and connect events to social organizations and charities.

This way, an event can not only become a beautiful day but also a positive motivational tool for your organization.

More than just a location
Would you like to add something besides delicious food and good meetings that will make people truly remember the event?

That is possible.

Think of live cooking, cocktail and coffee bars, music and DJs, entertainment, sports and games, workshops, yoga, breathwork, ice baths, teambuilding, or social activations.

And do you have an idea that you think: can that actually be done?

Probably yes.

And if we don't have it ourselves, we work with a broad network of partners who can help us realize it.

Well accessible. In the middle of nature.
Landgoed Voorlei combines something that is becoming increasingly rare in the Randstad: space, greenery, accessibility, and private parking.

With about 100 parking spaces on-site, a central location, and various indoor and outdoor spaces, we have all the ingredients for an event where people literally step away from their daily environment.

And because the location, catering, and a large part of the production can be provided by one organization, we can also offer competitive total prices.

No unnecessary links. Just short lines, flexibility, and genuine hospitality.

Your event. Our energy. Making an impact together.
We believe that business events can be more than just a beautiful location, a good glass of wine, and delicious food.

They can connect, motivate, inspire people, and show that sustainability, hospitality, social involvement, and enjoyment can go hand in hand.

Here, everything we have worked on in recent years comes together: good food, hospitality, culture, events, strong brands, social organizations, sustainability, and impact.

And all of that under one roof, in a place with its own history and a new story.

But above all, it must simply be a great event.

Because ultimately, it still holds true:

If you eat together, it always tastes better.

And making an impact?

You do that together.

Welcome to ManicOrganic – Coffee & Karma at Landgoed Voorlei.

Meet. Eat. Celebrate. Make impact.
