The service was very pleasant and my food came out quickly! The interior was very cozy and it wasn't too noisy at all. It's a must if you're traveling here and would like a nice dinner.

It comes with four samples, plus a taster size water and a baby bowl of peanuts. What a nice touch! I hate peanut butter in beer (like it's the worst thing ever created, ew), but peanuts WITH beer is a great idea. I had the bitterblond, scotch, barleywine, and tripel. They were all top quality. I gave the scotch away though. Too peaty for me. All in all a very cool place to hang out. If I had longer time in the city, I would've returned for sure.

I was expecting it to be a little spicer than it was--so I added some of their hot sauce which is excellent. The one thing I didn't like about the sandwich is they use American cheese. There are SO many amazing cheeses out there--I'll never understand why any restaurant--aside from fast food ones--use American cheese. It would be a lot better with real cheese. Their fries were good, and their bartender Sean is attentive and makes good conversation. I'll come back, but I'd order something else next time

The beers I tasted were without exception novelty beers, with overly fruity, herby or bitter tastes. Get your pilsener right and other basics right, first! The food however was excellent. Troost has gone full vegetarian on their burgers and this was the first time in my life I tasted that vegetarian burger replacements have a future. Texture and flavours were spot on. Wouldn't mind coming back for the burgers and will accept that the beers are not as I would like them.

There were a good variety on tap, except for one time they were literally out of everything but we found something else that we liked. I tried the IPA and the Honey beer and both were very crisp and fresh. They had a menu with little bites but we didn't try any. It's a nice spot to stop for a beer after a long day of walking and sightseeing, and I could see this as a nice spot to meet with friends after work if you're from the area.

As with most things Dutch, it's the experience that matters. Troost has wonderful wooden seating outside, all freshly handmade, and shiny new, with heating. Inside, the environment is cozy and spacious, with furniture for groups of all sizes. The service is on the speedy side with enough staff on duty to keep the beers flowing. Speaking of beers, they brew inside the restaurant. You can actually see the brewing operation. There are 9 brews on tap and some other options as well, including wines and liquors. I really enjoyed my dark brew. The food menu is wonderful as well, with enough vegetarian options. I really liked the vegetarian lentil burger. The fries could have been better, though. The walls and columns have a really local feel to them. I welcome this new addition to my neighborhood and look forward to many more visits!

I was solo and tucked into a cozy corner in the back. Decided to try their beer flight, which unlike in the US, you don't choose which 4 beers you want to try, and they don't come in a tray with labels of which beer is which. The server will tell you, but I had to ask a couple of times and write it down so that I would know what I was tasting. I had a Strawberry Rhubarb something, a New England IPA, a Dunkelweizen and a Tripel. All were very tasty, but I am not a beer connoisseur. Bottom line - a decent option if you are in the neighborhood and want better beer than Heineken. Proost

A great place to stop after exploring the windmills across the waterway. They have a delightful little outside area with full service at picnic tables (which was where everyone was on the nice day I visited) as well as plenty of interior tables. The brewery itself is in a connected building, and unlike many pubs I saw in Holland, this one had a good selection of beers, as befits a proper micro-brewery. I elected to try the blood-orange IPA -- it was good, and a little different, which is what I was looking for. I got intrigued by the menu, and ended up ordering the chicken and waffles. The waffles looked overcooked to my American eyes, but they tasted fine, and the fried chicken breast was tasty with a good exterior crunch and lots of flavor.

We sat down anyways and chose a table outside to watch the show of life. Beer was good. Had to try the local staple, bitterballen, and was not impressed. Lacked flavor and half of them were empty. We were amazed on how one could fry something like this and it be empty, yet it keeps it outer shell intact while being empty inside. Very odd. Double burger helped this place out but it wasn't a home run. Fries were just ok. I wouldn't eat here again but may have a beer here for the people watching. Oh well.

This place brews its own and you can't go wrong ordering any of their drafts which can be: Witte Antonia, De Blonde Barbier, or the De Manke Monnik. You can try them starting with the Antonia and work your way to the Manke or the other way around (either way it will be a pleasant day). The bar food is legit, I had raw sausage Ossenworst, Huisgemaakt Bierbrood (beer bread), and Bitterballen (toasty croquet made with beef). Have a seat outside facing the canal which allows for a delightful people watching view and relax.
