Wow, most definitely one of the better meals I have had in my life…read more I walked in here on a weekday evening for dinner and only one table was occupied. I was a bit concerned since I wasn't greeted by any server upon arrival. I went up to the cook (owner?) and asked if I could sit anywhere. I got a positive response. Once I sat down, I was immediately given a menu by the cook. I was informed that if I wanted to sit outside, I would receive a different menu. Holland Yelpers, please explain? The first few pages of the menu are in Dutch and items are priced between 16 euros and 20 euros for a regular entree. The last page of the menu is in English. My friend and I got the following items: Br kruidenboter (€3.75): bread and butter. Simply amazing. It came with garlic butter, pâté spread, and cream cheese. I couldn't stop eating. Me gusta mucho. Uiensoep (€5.75): french onion soup. Definitely one of the better french onion soup out there. More, por favor. Escargots kruidenboter (€7.50): snail meat in garlic butter. It was surprisingly delicious. Kip sate (€16.75): traditional Dutch-Indonesian food. This was definitely the highlight of my meal. It came with salad and relatively thick-cut fries. For the salad, there were jalapeño, fried beans, celery and...some other stuff mixed in there. It came with two skewers of meat dipped in peanut sauce. SO good. Somersby (€3.50): cider. Since alcohol is cheaper in Europe, I opted for the cider beer. DivFris (€2.35): Diet coke. SERVED IN A GLASS BOTTLE! Whoa! So cool. The cook/server was so friendly. It turned out he was the chef/owner/cashier. He was so nice and patient. He spoke some English, though not the most fluent, but was definitely able to communicate.

Stopped here for an early-ish dinner one evening, after leering into this cozy joint's windows for…read morethe past year. The ambience is ... junky, cozy, dutch, random, warm and old. It's a strange place. But, it's strange in a "grandma's house" sorta way - so not a dealbreaker. My husband and I both ordered the kip sate (chicken sate with peanut sauce, for those who aren't Dutch), and a Palm beer - but the two bottles of Palm that they had left were reserved for the regulars, apparently, so we got kip sate and some other beer. Both were good - which was a bit of a surprise. Not a surprise were the very old regulars, the dogs and cats running around, the cozy fireplace in the back, the very little English spoken here, the limited menu and the kitsch. I would go back, not regularly, but for an unusual winter night when I want to be entertained by some neighborhood crazy - this is the spot.

Excellent restaurant in the middle of the square. Stepped out of the rain for drinks and a snack…read more The loaded fries and veggie quesadilla hit the spot.

Wonderful outdoor space with heaters. Good menu, lots of options…read more Great location just off the main square. Biggest problem is that smoking is allowed at outdoor dining, and because the outdoor is covered and heated, if someone is smoking around you it just hangs over everything and there is no escaping it. Made for a most unpleasant experience. I know that it is no fault of this particular establishment, and more of a problem of society in general, but it did interfere with our experience at this particular place. Still, I did not subtract any stars for it. The 4 star review has more to do with unfriendly service. Not rude, I just expected friendlier service in a location like this. We were not made to feel welcomed. More like an inconvenience. We didn't feel comfortable lingering. More like eat and leave.

Nice place to go for a drink when it's a nice day. It's one of the cafes in the middle of the…read moreBotermarkt so there is a lot to watch especially on a nice day. There is also a glass enclosed room that's nice in case the sun is out but it's too cold to sit outside.
