Dagger Coffee // Zijdebalen — Restaurant in Utrecht

This was just pure madness, hearing a location talk trash about other “competitors” or whomever you’d want to call it, but at the same time just having posted a bingo card as to where to visit… this gives such borderline vibes it was really unpleasant.

If we’d known this before ordering, we would have left. This slanderous and fake behaviour shouldn’t be condoned by the other entrepreneurs in the; as dagger uses the terminology themselves “Utrecht coffee scene”.

Also saw their personnel nearly declining a guests order which was clearly in their order options. Why would you want to change a guests opinion on their decisive and clearly ordered item? Utrecht has some of the best spots and some of the worst of which they themselves think they are everything, dagger befalls the last category and the personal executes it, I hope the owner has a good sit down if this isn’t the way they want to operate. And before the owner is going to hit defensive mode on the reply. The girls working didn’t look like they’d be willing to hear feedback, that was their vibe. All the best and I hope to see a pleasant change on the next visit.

Edit to the owner: there are a magnitude of others stating the same issues about personnel, I might have elaborated more in depth. But the situation stays the same, I find the defensive behaviour seen now weird. Trying to put blame elsewhere when a there is a similar negative experience from over a dozen people. Do what you will with it but your reply only strengthens our experience and opinion. And just for your clarification, we have been to a few places on your bingo card and have never experienced at those locations as what happened here. We arguably had one of our best moments, in coffee in the Netherlands this Saturday at the...

I was here with an Italian. She ordered capuccino. We sat down. She started drinking her capuccino. I immediately noticed that something was not right. She looked at me in a very strange way. She said: "Soap. This tastes like soap, Jan Christian." I said: "What do you mean. Soap?" She said: "Yes". I tasted her capuccino, and indeed it tasted like soap. It was not good. When you order a capuccino you expect it to not taste like soap. It was therefore disappointing when it tasted like soap. Soap. However, we complained and got a new one for free. The woman was very nice and the new capuccino tasted better. It did not taste like soap. This time the nice woman used her "backup soya milk", which was only to be used for emergencies, such as a soap incident. Overall this was in the end a nice experience, despite the taste of the soap. I think we will come back...

A beacon of love and joy in Utrecht (Pijlsweerd). I've entered but never left with a frown. This place is amazing! I don’t even know where to start this review:

The plethora of self-roasted coffee beans The different spectacular drinks they can make with said beans, from a wonderful Espresso to a Fizzy Iced Americano with a hint of orange juice (personal favorite) and everything in between. Btw, they have a nice selection of wine and cocktails, the only problem is; they close @17:00  The ever changing brunch menu, with influences from Turkey the Middle-East and South-America And the attitude and joy of the people working here

All said, this is in my honest opinion the best coffee...
