Stael — Restaurant in Utrecht

Stael is a lovely cafe, lunchroom and delicacy shop. In the font part of Stael, there are many sweets to take away: canoli's, macarons, chocolates in all shapes and forms. Quality of these is really good, very tasteful. My friend thought the canoli was better then the one she had in Italy. Stael is also a lovely place to have a coffee, tea or some lunch. Good choice, good quality and nice atmosphere. They try to keep it cosy and, in Dutch, "gezellig", by banning laptops during certain hours or in certain spots. This may seem a little unfriendly, but makes sure the homely feel of the place is maintained. The only thing that could use some improvements is the bathroom. The toilet paperholder was broken off and the soap pump wasn't working properly. Staff is a little inexperienced, but super friendly and customer oriented nonetheless.

Stael is located on the Twijnstraat, in the South of Utrecht center. Do yourself a favour and definitely walk down south when visiting Utrecht. This part of Utrecht center is one of my favorite. There are many second hand stores and art galleries that you can visit on the Oudegracht walking to the Twijnstraat, where there are many lovely places to visit shop, eat or drink. Stael is definitely...

I absolutely LOVE the style and feel of Stael. Located at Twijnstraat 9 in Utrecht, it's location is one of the best in Utrecht, NL. Stroll the quaint street awhile, then relax with a bite or a drink at Stael. The atmosphere is modern, easy-going and relaxing. The staff is superior--friendly, as attentive as you wish, knowledgeable, and English-speaking. There is plenty of seating, and of different types, even window seats facing the Oudegracht--the main canal through Utrecht. The food is excellent! The menu includes several types of sandwiches, tostis, soups, desserts, teas, coffees, espresso/cappuccino, soft drinks and craft beers. Always fresh ingredients and good portion sizes. I love sitting on the couches/chairs near the fireplace in the rear of the restaurant, near the window. Highly recommmend. 👍🏼

Been here for lunch. The food and drinks were good, but the staff disappointed me. When we arrived we could sit down (after showing the QR code of course). The waiter came after 5 minutes to take our order, but we didn't even get a menu...He took a menu from a table full of guests (which is weird to do) and gave it to us. He came back 10 minutes later (a bit long, since there were only 2 tables occupied besides us) to take our order. I've worked in an Irish Pub for 2 years, so I can say the service was disappointing here. The food came after ±20 minutes and it was good. Just expected a bit more salmon for a "salmon...
