This place is usually quite busy, especially on weekends, but it’s definitely a great spot for breakfast. Even though there was no table available when we arrived, we only had to wait about 5 minutes. There are plenty of tables, so one frees up quickly—no need to worry. The tables are placed quite close to each other, but if that doesn’t bother you, it shouldn't be an issue. For the quantity, presentation, flavour, and service you get, it’s definitely worth it. The coffee is very good and well prepared. Nothing extraordinary, but still good. The food, on the other hand, is simply fantastic—delicious and beautifully presented. The bathrooms are clean, and the interior is lovely. I do feel that it is a franchise, but it doesn’t disappoint. The menu is quite extensive. If you don’t know Dutch or English, it may feel a bit overwhelming, but worst case, you can always use Google Translate.

Food was nicely decorated but tasted pretty mediocre. Service wasn’t the best (had to wait for 40-ish mins; server forgot one of the orders but didn’t really apologize; cashier didn’t say thank you to me when I was paying and she was saying that being super friendly to other customers walking out of the store. I didn’t want to make any assumptions but I am a POC and I really did not have the best time there. Bear in mind that this was on a Sunday but the restaurant is relatively busy on most days). Price was expensive as well and the portion was relatively small. Overall, I would not recommend this to someone who wants to have a wow experience, but if you still wanna try then there’s no stopping you either. Really hope you would have a better experience than me tho :))

Nice place - quite expensive for what it is though. Fiancé ordered pancakes which were good - I had Shakshuka which just was not shakshuka, it was a tomato and bean soup with an egg sat on top. I would urge the chef to watch a YouTube video on how to actually make Shakshuka and take it off the menu until then. Too much focus on making it instagrammable with little flowers and decorations on the plate, little focus on making the food actually good.

I love this place a lot, tbh. It’s not my first time being here. Food is good, and I actually like the service there and leave the tips. The lady waiter was rude from the start. I gave a benefit of the doubt because the place seemed crowded when we entered. We were told to wait outside for an available table or sit outside, and we were understanding about it. However, 7-8 minutes later she let another guy go and sit at a big table meant for a group of people. We decided to just enter the place ourselves and eventually found a table. The guy was handsome and yes, he was earlier than us. But we were told that we were not allowed to wait the way he was waiting (so sitting outside on the sits). However, he got the table and we needed to search it ourselves :/ I hope it was just an accident and...
