Het Koetshuis Schuttersveld was an upscale dining establishment located in Enschede, Netherlands, recognized with a single Michelin star spanning from 1987 through 2001.
After 32 years of operation, proprietor and head chef Fred Böhnke decided to close the restaurant in February 2009, attributing the decision primarily to the impact of the smoking ban and the economic downturn. Acting on his bank's recommendation, he chose to cease operations to prevent financial insolvency.
The venue was housed in the historic former coach house (Dutch: Koetshuis) of the Schuttersveld villa, constructed in 1823. Originally called Het Koetshuis, it was first situated at Walstraat 48 before moving to its later location.
From 1991 until 2006, Het Koetshuis Schuttersveld held membership in the Alliance Gastronomique Neerlandaise, underscoring its status within the Dutch fine dining sector.
