De Boterhal — Restaurant in Breda

We came as a big group of around 20 people.the service was very slow. We were informed, that we can not choose the food, only take the tapas menu. We agreed. Some people informed about alaergies e.g. nuts alergy, I informed, that I do not eat onions. Just can not stand the taste of them and don't eat anything they touch. So people with nuts alergies received separate portions and I don't, even get any replacement, when two dishes were mainly onions. Also the staff members were supper rude e.g. informed, that the tapas plate was for 4 people and we had only 3 pieces of chicken and 3 small toasts and highlighted, that in other places there are at least enough for each person, she said that is because people get vegetarian menu or "no nuts" menu and we can eat something else, so I did not get to try chicken. that is a disapointment. Nonsense continues once people decided to leave because of slow service and they were not allowed to leave and pay earlied than the food was served even tho they asked. We all agreed to pay so they could leave. Such a bad and louzy place with average food and louzy staff... also the part where I asked for "cuba libre" they informed, that they do only "spritz" and once asked for rome and coke it worked 🤣 everyone...

We arrived in Breda, exhausted by our long drive from Sweden. After checking-in at our accommodations we set upon downtown Breda to find someplace to enjoy a fine draught and have a bite to eat. The Boterhal building impresses you by itself, the history of Breda seems ever-present. Inside you are greeted by a hip, homely, and fresh interior, and most welcoming staff! We had the large tapas plates and tried a selection of beers and ales, all were very pleased with both the culinary side as well as the excellent service! Don't miss out on Boterhal if you're in Breda looking for some good food...

There are several floors at this venue of which the ground floor is their uncontested showpiece. Atmosphere is good, they offer a wide variety of beers, comfy food, and good service. Unfortunately we were sent to the cellar straight after arrival due to the size of our group (8 people). Once you have seen their beautiful ground floor, their dark cellar is a bit of a damper where also the service and (visible) choice of drinks is limited. The long way run to the toilet (3 stairs up) contributes to the downgraded experience. Overall a good place but stay away from...
