Food was ok, service was bad and I was charged 3 euros for a glass of tap water despite it not being on the menu.
No one served us at first, we had go take the menus ourselves and walk to the counter to place our order after waiting for 10 minutes, although the place only had 2 tables of customers when we were there. Then we waited for 25 more minutes before our pancakes are served. I took a sip of water from my own water bottle, and the waitress told me off saying that I can’t do that in there. She kept staring at me for the rest of the time just to make sure I’m not drinking any water. So I asked her to bring me a cup of tap water instead. When we were leaving, the waitress told me that I need to pay 3 euros for my tap water. I asked her to show the price of tap water to me on the menu.

I would skip the poffertjes though. All in all it was very good and if i was in the area i...
Read moreHorrible service. Nobody came to serve us after we entered the restaurant. We had to bring our own menu and utensils to the table and walk to the counter and order. Staff was also very strict against drinking our own water in the restaurant. After we requested for ONE cup of tap water (which is free in most places), the staff demanded us to pay €3.95 without informing us the charge beforehand. The price for tap water was also not stated on the menu or anywhere in the restaurant. I’m not sure if it’s the national law to pay for tap water in Amsterdam, but it’s indeed the only restaurant I’ve ever been to that charges nearly €4 for one cup...
