I can't recall which one I ordered, but I know I got the most popular one based on what the sweet employee suggested. I didn't realize how hot it was inside the croquette itself and I practically burnt my mouth, but that was my fault no doubt haha. I thought it was pretty tasty overall and I wish I had actually gotten another one (next time). Anyways, if you find yourself in Utrecht, this is a fantastic place to stop by and grab a croquette!

First off: very fun selection of breads. Sure, you have your spelts, wholemeals and ryes here, but…read morewe're talking about real Scandinavian rye only then not as shitty as your horrible Dutch mum may have forcefed you as a child (shoutout to my classmate from primary school!). Also: polarbröd! What a delightful and delicious flatbread, just one word for it: yum! Now seriously, they have some interesting sandwiches here which are mostly going to be much hartier than any other sandwich you'll find around here. The Dutch still have not figured out the sandwich game! Shame. However at Broodnodig, with their Scandinavian vibe, they seem to be present and in the sandwich race. They're thinking outside the slice and offering meals piled on to a sandwich yet not in such portions that you feel intimidated and fear you'll never be able to finish it. However I did need help finishing my sweet potato and hummus get up last time while le husband had no problem finishing his barbecue chicken deal and the rest of my sandwich. Drinks are also sometimes quirky and comforting like orange or mint hot chocolate in winter and oj&buttermilk (as one drink!) in summer. I just really like coming here to be surprised by their menu, delighted by the amount of vegetarian options and cheered up by the sometimes random conversations by the staff that you can butt in on. We've discussed everything from "why does this sandwich not come on spelt anyway? It's much better" to "what is this song stuck in my head?". Answer to the latter, it was Smoke on the Water. So, you feel like a decent lunch? Hearty, delicious and not even really unhealthy? Or maybe the opposite: pastries galore? COFFEE!!!! ? Give Broodnodig a try, you're bound to love it!

I decided to sit outside, since the weather was nice. A server will come take your order. Staff was pretty friendly, but it did take awhile to order our food. It looked busy, so I didn't mind waiting. I decided to order the tosti platter, which is a selection of the chef's 3 favorite sandwiches. I was prepared to be surprised. The food took awhile, but I didn't mind the wait. When our server bought out the food, I was excited! Our chef chose to give us the tosti cheese, tosti kimchi, and tosti pizza. My first tosti was the pizza one, which was oozing with cheese and sauce. That tosti was my favorite one. The kimchi tosti was tangy and had a nice spice. I ended up taking the last tosti home. I can't recommend these sandwiches enough, since they're hot and fresh. Plus, they're extra crispy. The sauces were strong of flavor, especially the truffle mayo one.
