With 20 taps, Stadsbrouwhuis is one of the latest and greatest additions to the Leiden craft beer…read morescene. Their beer selection reliably features several conventional Brand beers, but venturing beer geeks will surely find a brew they've never seen in one of the quickly rotating taps. In addition to serving up a variety of local and international beers, Stadsbrouwhuis also brews their own tasteful ales. Though their (very affordable) vegetarian dishes won't fill you up for a night of drinking, their crunchy and thickly sliced French fries do a fine job. We've only seen (rather than tasted) their other food from a distance, but everything looks like a well-made and inspired fusion of styles. As for their snacks: they're on the pricey side but very generous. Finally, the friendly staff is always excited to help you in beer-mergency situations. And in the rare occasion that their descriptions don't trigger your taste buds, you're always welcome to have a free taste. All in all, Stadsbrouwhuis is ideal for adventurous tasting and memorable conversations. But if you just have time to drop by on your way to a social event, be sure to pick up a swing-top bottle that's filled with anything from tap.

I absolutely love this place and when I studied in Leiden it was my regular haunt - I probably went here for dinner at least once a month. And with groups, and with parents, and ordered take-out, etc. And I still miss it!! Tip: order the burgers, not any of the other meals - burgers are really their forte. They make a delicious version called the 'Fresh burger' which is with extra salad without the bun!

Menu consists of different sandwiches, salads, burgers, wraps, etc. Tried their chicken club sandwich and it was delicious! Side note - comes with the skinniest shoe string fries, not your typical dutch fries so you need to ask for that separately. Everyone in our group enjoyed their meals. Would definitely come back here if in the area again. Lekker!

All of those places are great, but this one is still worth considering because: A) It's next to the Pieterskerk, aka in an area with relatively few other cafes (ok you could walk 3 minutes down the road to the busy area but one gets lazy when living in such a small town) B) It's still relatively unknown and has an unpronounceable name, so you're very likely to get a table C) They make great coffee, and I've heard they have insanely good sandwiches. D) It's adorable and very cozy. E) I'm pretty sure it faces the part of the square where they used to hang people. Perhaps a turn-off for some people, I think it's kind of cool - counterbalances the quaintness. Worth a look anyway!
