Tijm — Restaurant in Utrecht

We came for brunch and were pleasantly surprised by the wonderful view on the canal when you sit inside.

At first, it took a while for the staff to come and clean the table as there were piles of dishes from the group before us. Then after waiting for 15min another waitress finally came but went to the other table with guests that arrived after us and took their oder first. That was a bit annoying since we have been waiting longer and arrived first. It would've been better if the staff there communicates with each other to make sure which guests arrived first!

Now to the food, we got the Burrata bruschetts with Zucchini and Pancakes with berries. The pancakes were really good, but I did expect the portion to be bigger for the price. The burrata bruschetta was good as well but the sweet honey (?) was a bit irritating. I wished they would've put tomato bruschetta spread on it - that would've matched a lot better imo!

Still, the food and drinks were good. We got a nice table with a nice view, so...

Disappointing experience… We went in for a quick snack, because we were in a rush to catch a train. We were ask to move with all our luggage after we found a table and sat down. (Funny they didn’t mentioned that beforehand) Then the staff sent us downstairs and they did not want to take our luggage to leave it behind the bar or something, so we had to carry it down the narrow stairs. There was another room (completely empty), so we just put everything down by another table. The staff then ask us to make some room for potential customers. We then told them we won’t be here for very long and if someone shows up we will make room for sure. After that the staff was very impolite in a almost agressiv way. Banging our drinks on the table without saying anything. Kind of disappointing since the food was...

My favorite cafe in the city! Such chill and cozy vibes, you’re really lucky if you get a table next to the window by the canal because the views are stunning. The menu has dishes of many different sizes and tastes and I’m sure everyone will find something they like. Theres some unique combinations of flavors that wouldn’t cross your mind otherwise but you can tell have been carefully thought out as they go together perfectly. Most options are either vegan or vegetarian. This time I had the pita bread with hummus and the bites platter and the lavender lemonade. I also recommend the mimosas and the halloumi pita! I also love that they close very late compared to other places in the city. Whenever in doubt about where to grab a drink or bite Tijm is...
