This is a relatively new place in The Hague. Probably now a few months old, just in middle of town…read more First of all, I love the location on the Buitenhof. Nice place, loads of space to leave your bike outside, in the middle of the centre, hence also shopping area. As for the cafe itself, there's a nice relaxed atmosphere. Mixing some old materials, nice touch. Coffee is good, some cakes also (only tried to cookie, but the rest looks great). They also offer sanwdiches, nibbles, wine, etc... As for the service: efficient and friendly.

The coffee is quite good at Hometown, and it keeps us returning. However, the unfriendly service…read moreleaves something to be desired; we'd definitely go there more frequently if the staff was more welcoming.

If you ever find yourself in The Hague for business or pleasure, this restaurant is absolute…read moreperfection. I am not joking when I say that I want to fly back to the Netherlands purely to eat here again someday. We were looking for a place to eat that was within walking distance of The Hague Marriott. When another restaurant on the same street was all booked up for the evening, we found The Old Jazz. It was still before 1900 and not crowded. (However, every table was filled by the time we departed.) I am so thankful that the other restaurant was full, as this was a meal I will remember for years to come. I started with the salmon and tuna sashimi and my friend chose a crispy pita with bell pepper aioli. The fish was so fresh that I felt like I was back in Hawai'i enjoying a freshly-caught meal on the water's edge. My friend--notorious for being a very picky eater and never eating sushi--even tried the sashimi and ate a whole piece of tuna. The dish also featured wakame, a homemade kimchi-like veggie blend, sprouts, rice puffs, ginger, and wasabi (and not the packaged kind). My friend was thrilled with the pita. We also enjoyed some cocktails as starters. I really liked my elderflower spritzer to begin the meal. Although everything sounded delicious as a main course, I opted for the truffle rigatoni with the lobster. You know those dishes where you involuntarily close your eyes with every bite because it's so good that it almost overwhelms your senses? The balance of the dish was perfect: salty, sweet, sour, bitter, and umami were all represented in harmony. If it wouldn't have been poor form, I likely would have licked the dish clean to savor every last note of flavor. Our waiter had also suggested a lovely glass of wine to go with the dish, and the recommendation was perfect. We absolutely had to order dessert to end the meal, opting for the moelleux au chocolate with a white chocolate crumble, vanilla mousse, and what was described as a "pure chocolate" ice cream. Again, this final dish was heavenly, and I wanted to pack the chef in my suitcase so I could enjoy this incredible experience again. Throughout the meal, the service was sublime. Every recommendation from our waiter was perfect, from the wine pairings to dishes that might interest us. I am immensely grateful that we stumbled upon The Old Jazz. Someday, I will find a way to return to The Hague, perhaps just so I can dine here again!

I'm not…read morespecifically crazy about cycling (eventhough I do it everyday), but the cycly-setting did not intimidate us. We settled ourselves on the Chesterfield in the back, as my little girls were entertained by the kids' bikes on site. The coffees were costumizable (I had a Latte+Chocolate) and my friend dared to consume a Biker's Juice (it looked like blended seaweed and tasted superhealthy, meaning the taste is indiscribable (therefore it must be healthy)). Assorted costumers; accomplished businesspeople aswell as happy hipsters. Friendly service. Sadly it wasn't until our way out that I noticed there. Was. Cake... And it looked mouthwatering... So we will be taking this alternative route more often; to taste all different cake-variations AND soak up the relaxed atmosphere!
