I had the good fortune of being the one and only patron for the first hour and I sat and talked to the owner, Pieter. This place just has that authentic Irish feel to it. I actually walked a half a mile past another Irish pub that was closer to my hotel to get to this one. Maastricht does not have as much exposure to Yelp, so I actually had to look for a recommendation on another site. That is exactly why I am reviewing this restaurant. Yelpers need to know this place! I enjoyed a Smithwick's on tap. The beer was extremely cold, and the pint was a perfect pour! However, the biggest draw for me was the fish and chips. They are absolutely delicious! The fish is a rather large piece, done right in beer batter. It is also extremely flaky and I consider this a good thing! The pub is also known to be a good place to watch European football. The TVs are hooked up to sound and broadcast in HD. Whether you're looking for a good pint, good food or just to enjoy a football game, this is your place. And let Pieter know that Craig from Yelp sent you!

We've been in Irish Bars all over the world. This one is special. For one thing, it's clean. I mean *really* clean. It's really nicely furnished and decorated. The place has sort of an "upscale" ambiance, but retains the laid back feeling you expect from an Irish Pub. The food was terrific. We enjoyed large portions and the exceptional presentation. Prices were reasonable and the service was great. In short, this isn't your run of the mill Irish Pub. I absolutely recommend you check it out.

Visited Maastricht for the first time and came across the Old Dutch for an early dinner. The food…read morewas pretty good! In an area full of different terraces and restaurants, this one stood out because the menu was easily visible written above the place. I got the Tartufo burger which was delicious!!! Wagyu beef, Truffel mayonaise, tomaat, Parmezaan & rucola!! Yum! Others in my group had the French onion soup, bitterballen (a must when visiting Holland) and some kind of sausage and cheese platter (I forgot the name). The bottom line was that my burger was amazing, and the service was a little slow, but other than that it was a great experience. Great terrace for people watching.

Not sure why we picked Old Dutch from the broad selection of café bars along the square. May have been the beer selection or the beautiful waitress who spoke perfect English, but in we went to escape the afternoon heat. Whatever the reason, we chose well. The four of us 50 somethings were invisible to Danielle, but she remained friendly and courteous. Luke gave us an education on the local beer and mapped out a good walking tour of the city. Our dinners tasted fantabulous--I had one of the best salmon filets of my life. I will definitely be back, for beer, food, and friendly service.

One of the good places on Platielstraat, but it really gets going at night. It's a nice place that gets busy at night with the students in town.

French Onion Soup - The soup was solid and seasoned with lots of herbs. They could have used a better cheese, but overall, I'd say it was good. Beef stew - The flavor of the stew was kind of unexpected because it doesn't taste like a traditional beer braised stew. The flavor is similar to sauerbraten, which is a german pot roast with a sweet-vinegary flavor. Prices here are reasonable, especially for their Belgium beers. 5 euros for a 9% belgium triple?

The fries were nothing special but the main was a tasty intro to local food, with a side of apple sauce to clean the palate. Mandarin sorbet was tasty and not overly sweet. It has some floral notes, perhaps honey? A lot of things are decorated with this amusing drawing of a man and woman at dinner. The man is licking his plate while the woman is holding it up like a mirror. Inside is on the smaller side, though I may be comparing to American size. It does get kind of loud.
