They also offer a shakerato--an Italian shaken iced coffee, one of my personal favorites! It's done just the way it's supposed to be done, like in Italy, served with the coffee foam on top, sweetened or unsweetened. Good amount of seating, usually not too busy. Great for a quiet and relaxed bite and coffee. In a residential area, too, so not much going on. It's right around the corner from my gym, so every time I bike by post-workout, I treat myself to a sweet and coffee. Worth every calorie.

In my mind, the perfect cafe perfectly captures the "third place" concept - cozy enough to feel like home. I think the Dutch call that vibe - 'gezellig'. The perfect cafe also has a well-rounded selection of teas, coffees, sandwiches, cakes, and a solid soup of the day. Finally, because I am also slightly basic, the perfect cafe must be insta-worthy from the design of its store to the plating of its food and coffees. Sand's, Cakes and Bubbles is a perfect cafe. From the cozy decor, to the menus hung cutely on clothing hangers, to the beautifully garnished food and drinks, everything about Sand's Cakes and Bubbles is insta-worthy and gezellig to the power of lekker. And yes .. lekker. I have had my share of sandwiches in my lifetime, and the way they balance flavours in their sandwiches at Sand's, Cakes & Bubbles is really jaw-dropping. The truffle sandwiches is probably one of the best sandwiches I have had in my life, and don't even get me started on the soups! Amazing. Highly recommend Sand's Cakes & Bubbles if you're looking for a cozy, chill afternoon with a book and some oldies music playing in the background.

Note: Annabel in the summer and Annabel in the winter are two completely different experiences. In…read morethe winter, you're going to Annabel to drink and dance in a club. In the summer, Annabel transforms into a beer garden where everyone drinks and talks. I've been to both. Club Annabel is a nice club, nothing too special. In this review, I'm talking about Annabel in the summer. I've been here a few times now, feeling compelled to write about it. The name is quite clever because when people talk about the place the name Annabel gives it a familiar, informal vibe. Because Annabel is one of the only beer gardens in Rotterdam in the summer, this place is heavily crowded on warm days. On a good summer night, being able to sit outside with a cold drink in your hand is amazing (no matter where you are). Other than providing places to sit outside, an okay house DJ (maybe I'm wrong and I just had bad luck on the few times I've been here, but with the great artists coming to Rotterdam I'm spoiled), the drinks are quite expensive. Think 3,50 euro for a beer, over 4 euros for anything else. Of course, you're not paying for just the drink, you're paying rent for a seat and a chance to sit outside. Still, I have a feeling Annabel could be more than what it is now on regular evenings. All in all a good place to meet up with friends, but as with most of the nightlife in Northwest-Europe, don't arrive sober unless you don't mind paying through the nose to drink.

If I could give half a start I would. I have been to many a club and have had many a dance but I must say this was my least enjoyable. I have only ever felt moved enough to write a review once before and that was for the most godly and tastefully garnished kebab to have ever touched my royal lips. And now here I am. When i asked for a glass of tap water the barkeep refused and when i asked why she leaned in close to me and whispered "this is the season", carved a pentagram into the beer mat and then no one would acknowledge i was there?? 2/10 would not bang Annabel again.
