Lovely place in a pleasant location in the old town center of Schiedam…read more Staff is friendly, especially the owner. Food is awesome! They obviously made choices with their menu selection and ingredients to provide high quality, tasty items. I'm partial to the breakfast items, such as the yogurt with toasted muesli, honey, and raisins. The breakfast sampler (I forget what they call that item) has several bread, some fantastic coriander hummus (homemade), and other nice items. It comes with coffee and juice, and the price is very nice.

It is quite new and seems a bit confused with which demographic of clienteles they are catering to. It has a great potential to be a hub for creative, hipster crowd. At the moment, it is underrated. Thus, I give them an extra star on top of the 4 stars they deserve.

In my mind, the perfect cafe perfectly captures the "third place" concept - cozy enough to feel like home. I think the Dutch call that vibe - 'gezellig'. The perfect cafe also has a well-rounded selection of teas, coffees, sandwiches, cakes, and a solid soup of the day. Finally, because I am also slightly basic, the perfect cafe must be insta-worthy from the design of its store to the plating of its food and coffees. Sand's, Cakes and Bubbles is a perfect cafe. From the cozy decor, to the menus hung cutely on clothing hangers, to the beautifully garnished food and drinks, everything about Sand's Cakes and Bubbles is insta-worthy and gezellig to the power of lekker. And yes .. lekker. I have had my share of sandwiches in my lifetime, and the way they balance flavours in their sandwiches at Sand's, Cakes & Bubbles is really jaw-dropping. The truffle sandwiches is probably one of the best sandwiches I have had in my life, and don't even get me started on the soups! Amazing. Highly recommend Sand's Cakes & Bubbles if you're looking for a cozy, chill afternoon with a book and some oldies music playing in the background.

We started with the Mini Goat Cheese Balls. These were literally balls of creamy goat cheese covered in a layer of chopped peanuts and topped either with tangy sundried tomato or a slice of green olive. Next came the Tuna Tartar; Cool and fresh tuna was topped with a crisp seed cracker and paired with crisp spicy zucchini and seaweed salad. Our next dish was the Filo Spinach which had a crisp airy shell was filled with creamy whipped feta and wiled spinach. Finally, our favorite dish of the evening, the Stuffed Chicken Breast was tender and juicy, sat on a creamy mushroom sauce and fresh crisp asparagus. Overall, this was a solid choice for dinner.
