Twentsche Foodhal — Restaurant in Enschede

We had chosen to hold a dinner and party for our 400-person academic conference in the Twentsche Foodhal. The overall experience was fantastic. Conference attendees were happy to be able to put together their own menu, and the space and multiple restaurants lends itself very well to mingling and networking. The staff was very thorough in setting up the evening's program, and the space transformed from dinner to party venue seamlessly (with an external DJ). The food and drinks menu is wide and very interesting!

With a little under 400 people present we did notice that they were a little understaffed when it came to coat checks and manning the bar and restaurants, but that did not harm the atmosphere. Afterwards, attendees said that they absolutely had more than enough to eat and drink over the course of the evening.

As the conference organizer I strongly recommend considering this place for parties with between 275 and 450 participants - though I will also return there myself for some great...

Super good food! We enjoy coming here, specially with friends so that everyone can enjoy different cuisines in one place. Congrats on every stand for their cooking by the way. Sadly, the waiters aren’t the best. More than once they took drinks or plates that were not finished without even asking. They were so fast and quiet (sneaky ninjas) sometimes we didn’t even realized that they had taken stuff. My drink was ⅓ full and she took it when I stood up to pick up my order, when I asked about my drink she said it was too late. I mean, we feel rushed to leave with this kind of service and surely messes the experience. Also, whenever you want to order or ask for the waiter they are always talking to each other doing I don’t know what. I had to wave my arm for some good mins to get that girl’s attention or go to the bar to ask myself. It’s not that we were impatient, but these kids are not attentive to the customers at all. They just rudely pick up tableware and that’s it. How are you training...

Great place to have a nice meal with family and friends. This place small plates for a fair price. It is also possible to order plates to share. They take great caution with allergies or diet wishes. You have the choice out of 6-8 different vendors arounds the dining hall where you can order food. There is always something for everyone. Whether you like Asian, Mexican, American, Dutch or vegetarian food, there is plenty of choice.

One problem was that staff wanting to leave the emergency exit door open because it is not functioning if the door is closed, fix your emergency exit this is a huge safety...
