For a first time visit Douariere certainly lived up to its expectations. Classy decor, warm and…read morewelcoming, hip ambiance. Various seating areas with room for groups. Very good food and excellent, helpful service. If I had to change anything I would stress that the beef is grass fed if it is (it seemed to be in terms of texture) and add a good chicken dish. Beverage selection is commendable and comprehensive focused on high quality beer and wine. Though the creme brulee with tonka beans as dessert was a bit too sweet to my taste it was otherwise superb and I would order it again in a heartbeat. Highly recommended.

From the owner: De Douairière is een Grand Café, er is veel ruimte. En dus veel privacy. Modern, een tikkeltje…read moretrendy, maar warm, aangenaam. De sfeer van een riant café, de kwaliteit van een toprestaurant. De Douairière kent veel verschillende hoeken en zitjes. Allemaal plekken ook om aan te schuiven voor een culinair hoogstandje. Dat kan alleen, knus en met veel privacy met zijn tweeën of op andere plekken in het Grand Café zijn er weer mogelijkheden voor een grote groep. Grand Café De Douairière bewijst dat een bijzonder gerecht niet meteen een duur gerecht moet zijn. Een team van jonge, enthousiaste koks moedigt elkaar dagelijks aan om van de gerechten iets bijzonders te maken. Het alledaagse is hen een doorn in het oog, maar tegelijkertijd streven zij ernaar een breed publiek van dienst te zijn. Niet door dan maar voor elk wat wils te bereiden, maar door het bijzondere dusdanig te presenteren dat de bezoeker De Douairière verlaat met het opwindende idee iets totaal nieuws ervaren te hebben.

A little off the beaten path but definitely worth the stop. We enjoyed our time on the patio area…read morewhich is situated right on one of the main streets of Gennep. I had the Ribs which were very good, along with the Fries (there's something about Dutch mayo that makes fries even better). The menu is NOT in English but Google translate handled most of what we couldn't decipher ourselves. The wait staff spoke English which also helped. There arent alot of other options in the area, but if you find yourself in town, definitely make this a must eat.

Pretty sure meals are reheated and not cooked fresh. Ribs were dry, corn was soggy chips overcooked…read morein old oil and salad was drowning in cheap acidic dressing. Steak was barely even warm and definitely not medium rare as ordered and the mushroom sauce was a disgusting congealed mess that tasted like tinned mushroom soup. We didnt even bother with desert. The only thing that got us through the meal was the overpriced cocktails.

I have no complaints about the friendly service, but the food was underwhelming…read more I ordered the nachos that were supposed to come layered with minced beef and chicken, salsa, jalapeños and cheese plus sour cream and guac on the side. These were driest nachos dish I have ever tried. There was maybe one spoonful of meat on the entire plate and similar went for the salsa. The guac was not fresh but definitely came out of some kind of container. Other food on the table did not seem to be any better. I tried my husband's steak which was not the best cut and kind of tough. They also did not prepare it medium-rare like he requested, but just medium. Several people had fries which were just OK - the "Snacks" fast food place in the same building serves better quality. My mother-in-law had the chicken salad which was pretty much half a head of lettuce plus a few chicken stripes all drenched in Cesar dressing. Not impressed.

The breakfast was really nice, so recommend that…read more However, when we returned for dinner it was an unpleasant surprise. The food quality is 'meh' at best, and the experience is poor. Somehow, they were able to make a kids pancake taste bad. How is that possible? Our party of 4 ate at Fuego the night before, and basically for the same price that was s much better deal.

To my surprise, this place ended up being the best option for dinner at Center Parc's Market Dome…read more It's AYCE (coffee, espresso, cappuccino and tea included, other drinks are extra) but 26€ per adult and 10€ for kids can still end up being on the pricier side - depending on what you get. In the end, we ended up staying for 2.5 h since it was not very crowded and the vibe was chill (- you don't get the feeling that they are just trying to feed people as quickly as possible). The food area features a bunch of different stations - several manned by staff members who are making dishes and food items right in front of your eyes (= the grill featuring grilled chicken, pork and steak, the pasta station featuring 2 different pasta dishes, the pancake station). They have a salad bar, several tables with warm food which they continue to replenish as soon as a tray runs empty, a soup area with 3 soups (tomato basil, pea and wild game stock) which you can dress up with further ingredients and which is accompanied with fresh breads and spreads, a dessert table with a soft ice machine, plenty of sweets and desserts as well as cheeses, and two espresso machines where you can make your own coffee specialties (as mentioned above). The food quality was pretty good and I have to give them brownie points for offering some more modern dishes like parsnip mash (instead of regular mashed potatoes), a kale pasta dish or wild deer stew aside from standard German-Dutch dishes like fried breaded fish, schnitzel, fries, warm baby carrots & broccoli, etc. My personal favorites were items from the salad bar, the grilled pork loin pieces from the grill as well as the blue cheese from the dessert table and pieces of dark wheat baguette and freshly churned herb butter from the soup table. I also like to mention that this place is really kid-friendly. They have an indoor tree house play are with a slide for the little ones, a play area with black boards to write on for the a bit older kids and every child received an activity booklet with pens upon entering the restaurants.
