The food was great, I had the tuna steak and that was simply fabulous! Freshest of produce was used…read moreand the taste was great. Service was also reasonably good but at one point I had to hail a waiter to take the food order as they just did not come to our table. Admittedly, it was packed (Saturday night) but still they should keep an eye out for those who still need to order their food. The waiters just walked past and served the other tables for the extra drinks etc.. The first drinks on arrival, however, were quickly served so no drama there. The ambiance... well, it is a great place to go to, a brown café as we call it and a fun place to be. But..... the music was too loud after a while (André Hazes..) and you could hardly talk. I don't think a café bar restaurant should turn up the noise to make it "gezelliger". Especially when it is packed. Maybe later in the evening when the dining is finished you can turn it up a bit but not when people are still sitting around their tables enjoying their meal. Next time we will try a weeknight to see if the noise is less. I do hope so!

It's hard to describe in words just how charming the poffertjes stand was! Too cute. And the poffertjes were good - and the beverages were delicious (mint tea, cappuccini, etc.). A very charming place - I'll definitely go again if I'm ever in Laren again.

Contrary to one of the previous reviewers, I've had the pleasure of trying poffertjes in many…read morelocations, so if not an expert, I'm at least an experienced enthousiast. I can say that these are the best I've ever had (although I may be biased; I come here since the age of 4, or thereabouts). The menu is not long, basically it is poffertjes (plain, wirh rum, ginger or Gran Marnier), dutch waffels (thinner and more crunch than Brusselse or Luikse) and drinks. That's all you will need, though. The enormous poffertjes hob is impressive, the waffel oven is beautiful. As is the "kraam" itself (at least from the front and inside). Worth a visit in itself. It is correct this place is not open all year round, between april and september you are in the clear, though (summer, basically). I believe they open mid april and close mid september.

This is a very cozy place. Nice to bring a visit with your friends. There are all sorts of animals…read moreand some chickens running around. Food is good although the High tea wasn't what I expected. They got away with adding some supermarket cakes, sprinkles and canned fruit. I expected scones, clotted cream, jam and some more sandwiches at least. So be sure what to order. Tea itself is from a good store but it's teabags. Real high tea or afternoon tea should be more fresh and different types of tea with some more background information. The ambience makes it a nice experience so that's why the 3 stars.

What a wonderful afternoon to spend in Theetuin Eemnes. This place is so romantic with all it's…read morelittle hide-aways in the garden. Very authentic, brocante style. You just choose a nice place in the garden and get whatever you like from tea with any kind of cake (the carrot cake is very nice, or home made apple pie or caramel with nuts) to a good bottle of rosé or a glass of beer with a nice mixture of snacks, depending on the time or mood. Also a fun place for kids, good to play hide and seek or enjoy the animals (chicken and peacocks walking around everywhere) or play a nice game of 'Ganzenbord' inside on a very large playing board you can walk on! There is also a little brocante shop and classic cars are displayed. It is so romantic, you can actually get married here. Anyway, when you are in the neighborhood and the weather is nice, you make sure to stop here for a very special moment in a world of it's own. Prices are a bit high, but well, it's worth it, especially on a day like this when the sun is shining brightly...

Oh yeah, they have one right there! You enjoy and linger over dinner & drinks while the little ones play with in eyesight, safely! Inside is also very nice. No swing set, but that's probably a good thing. The food and service are excellent. I had carpaccio and it was nothing less than perfect. My daughter had salmon, also excellent. The fries are delicious! with mayonnaise, of course. The service is attentive & accommodating. Can't imagine leaving George anything but happy with your choice of restaurant.
