Eetcafé en Restaurant De Buren — Restaurant in Sittard-Geleen

unfortunately I was very disappointed with the service. They have it divided in 3 categories ordering serving payment The ordering waiter was absolutely unacceptable with the kind of arrogance and “I don’t give a…” attitude in which he took the order. English menu nonexistent, unless you go on the website. At my arrival the restaurant and especially the outside area on the square was pretty full. It was 40 min before closing of the kitchen, so I was told. The waiter was very annoyed because my iPhone (with Swiss provider) was at first unable to access the website of the restaurant. He took my iPhone and started fingering it all over. Voila, the menus in English. 10 min later he came back to take the order. Tuna salad please. Sorry, no Tina salad for dinner. Being almost kitchen closing time and with the stressed out waiter standing in front of me I quickly decided to take the salad with the goat cheese. Bad choice. I usually order this in France.

The prices are on a normal level compared to other restaurants in the Netherlands I visited. Something I don‘t like is that they don‘t offer the regional beer „Brand“. Other than that,...

On a beautiful sunny Saturday in November we sat down to order a delicious lunch. Nice terrace, good chairs, we were really in the mood to enjoy our food and day.

We ordered a healthy lunch and then the drinks, My partner a tea and I asked for tap water. But the answer was: No, out of the question, we do not provide tap water, you have to order bottled water, that is our policy. And not even a blink, more the impression of ‘how dare I even ask’.

Sorry but for me this is not acceptable. Where has the warm welcome and generosity gone? Disappointed we left for Beans & Bagels...
