Berg's Bakery — Restaurant in Gouda

The shop is a lunch room more than a Bakery as the Bakery contain some items they do not ride much on the fame of their high praised stroopwafel. The stroopwafel already prepacked. Service is good, with a smile local and as most Dutch hospitality places students but with love. 3/10

The stroopwafel At first it does not seems any different but when it comes closer you will sell a little oven prepared smell. The bite is much more airy and crumble easier. Lovely as mostly they are thin and much more sirup. The flavor of the stroopwafel is not too sweet what mostly is and what I do not like about it. This one is nice in balance maybe just a bit oversweet but much better. I understand why this stroopwafel is one of the best ones. But do need to say the sirup is not evenly spread and the sides you for sure notice the lesser amount of sirup. 3.5/10 there is crystal sugar in the sirup not sure everybody will like it I do...

The food was ok-ish and in our opinion only worth two stars. We give three because we had savoury options and therefore cannot talk about the cakes and esp. the waffels, which seem to be the specialty of this place.

The waitress was really...

They have a good variety of items, a lot of bakery items. However, we arrived very early and not everything on the menu was available. Service was very standoff-ish and it took us forever to get the check even though we were the only ones there. The waitress was chatting the whole time and could not see us trying to get the check to be on our way. Then another waitress spotted us and came to the aid. The place also felt a bit dirty, dusty on the wood panels on the wall, had a squashed bug on the menu (which I understand might not be their fault but still). Hot drinks and cookies were very average. I was hoping for a fresh Stroopwafel but got a re-heated old one sadly. Overall a place that looks good but a very...
