De Boezemvriend moved from De Pijp to Zuid. It's a shop specialized in breastfeeding. This means:…read morecourses, lactation consults, all kinds of products relating to breastfeeding (like pumps, nursing bra's and quite fashionable nursing clothing) and lot's of nice goodies for the mama's and baby's, including cute baby gifts. Besides this you can have a coffee or tea in a relaxing atmosphere where you do not have to feel strange breastfeeding your child. Also, you child can freely roam around. I wish there were more cafe's like this!! I would have never come here would I not have booked a "course on nursing" just before I was about to give birth to my first son. You might ask yourself why we need a course on nursing when nature invented this miraculous system and mothers have been nursing for ages. Nevertheless, I decided to go. And with me I took (or towed) along my man (I am sorry, it's part of the deal when getting your wife pregnant). We genuinely left the place informed and smiling. I want to compliment the instructors for giving such helpful information on nursing while making the audience laugh. It indeed helped me later on.

Bartenders were super nice, and it was fun watching them make all sorts of crazy cocktails. They have sidewalk seating as well.

All I can say is that I loved this place, but then again it is pretty hard to compare this with the…read moreother two bars that I visited in Rotterdam because they were all nothing short of brilliant, however I will have to say that this one was by far the best namely because the bartender was not only really friendly, but also gave us a brief history of the city, and the main reason why it looks so modern as opposed to the other parts of Europe that I had been to (and that was namely because the entire city was flattened during World War II, and when they went to rebuild it, they decided to go modern). Anyway, they also had some pretty interesting beers available, but it isn't just a beer bar it is also a restaurant so you can also grab a meal here. However, it wasn't the food (because I wasn't all that hungry) that grabbed my attention but rather the awesomeness of the guy behind the bar.

Location was fantastic, located right in the city center, on the canal. Seating inside and out. Was…read morethe perfect spot for a late breakfast (open at 10:00). Coffee, a must, was an A+. We decided on pancakes which were just ok. We ate at Pancakes the day before and their pancakes were significantly better. Service was very prompt and friendly.

They don't seem to open early in the week but if you are around on the weekend pop in for a pint sure as if you are in Waalwijk it's well worth checking out.
