Visited Maastricht for the first time and came across the Old Dutch for an early dinner. The food…read morewas pretty good! In an area full of different terraces and restaurants, this one stood out because the menu was easily visible written above the place. I got the Tartufo burger which was delicious!!! Wagyu beef, Truffel mayonaise, tomaat, Parmezaan & rucola!! Yum! Others in my group had the French onion soup, bitterballen (a must when visiting Holland) and some kind of sausage and cheese platter (I forgot the name). The bottom line was that my burger was amazing, and the service was a little slow, but other than that it was a great experience. Great terrace for people watching.

Not sure why we picked Old Dutch from the broad selection of café bars along the square. May have been the beer selection or the beautiful waitress who spoke perfect English, but in we went to escape the afternoon heat. Whatever the reason, we chose well. The four of us 50 somethings were invisible to Danielle, but she remained friendly and courteous. Luke gave us an education on the local beer and mapped out a good walking tour of the city. Our dinners tasted fantabulous--I had one of the best salmon filets of my life. I will definitely be back, for beer, food, and friendly service.

I have been coming to In Den Ouden Vogelstruys since 2007 when I had my first experience in…read moreMaastricht and I dare say it is one of the reasons I return. In Den Ouden Vogelstruys is a brown cafe with various claims to historical permanence. Take your pick 1700's...1800's...there's even a canon ball stuck in the outside facade labeled 1670. There are a half-dozen bars on this block all beckoning for your hard earned (or recently converted euros). I have sampled them all and In Den Ouden is by far my cuppa. This time I was not alone and wanted to get a second opinion. Kate was not disappointed. We ordered the 4 cheese plate (Limburger, Brie, goat cheese and bleu). Two wedges of each along with a French roll, 4 slices of fruit and nut bread, apple syrup and a salad of grapes, walnuts and rocket all for $13.50. We accompanied this with her local herbed liqueur coffee and my Le Trapp. We had anticipated this to be a simple bar snack but in fact turned into our lunch of the day. We in particular loved the paring of the apple syrup over the bleu cheese and the Brie on the fruit/nut bread. All was yummy and beautifully presented. This was a perfect meal to linger over and be thankful for your blessings. We will come back.

We dropped in on a Tuesday evening (around 9:15pm) and it was busy. There was a private event upstairs so the inside was packed. Luckily, we were able to snag a table outside beside the heaters. Nice touch with the blankets for you to use if you get cold. Only downside is lots of chain smokers but that's at most bars. There were a couple menus but we only were here for beers (€2,50 to €5,80 range). - Tannenzäpfle (€2,50 for 0,33L) - 2x Eifeler landbier (€2,50 for 0,30L) - 2x Bolten alt (€2,50 for 0,30L) Chill, laid back spot to grab a few beers with friends.

One of the coolest bars I've been to in long time! I looked up Domkeller on Yelp! and you all did…read morenot disappoint, I got just what I was looking for! Located (as the name suggests) right near the Dom, Domkeller offers good beer (German, Belgian as well as others) in a cozy atmosphere. For me, Domkeller embodies what a bar should be--a relaxed place where you can share a drink with friends and listen to good music (at just the right level) or have a good conversation. The music played here is fantastic and is an amazing mix that just about everyone will enjoy. They also regularly have concerts--I'm sure this place gets packed for those! Although a bit pricey (our bill came to around 12 with 2 beers and a snack) I think it's a nice enough place to enjoy a drink (skip the snack).
