Hof van Sonoy was a distinguished fine dining establishment located in Blokzijl, Netherlands, which held a prestigious Michelin star from 2005 until it ceased operations in 2008. The restaurant was owned and led by head chef Paul van Staveren.

Housed within a renovated school building dating back to the 19th century, the venue focused on delivering French and Mediterranean culinary experiences. Upon closing in 2008, the restaurant relinquished its Michelin star, after which Van Staveren moved the enterprise and relaunched it under the name Sonoy in Emmeloord.

From 2006 onward, Hof van Sonoy was affiliated with the Alliance Gastronomique Néerlandaise, underscoring its prominent position within the Dutch gourmet dining scene.
