WAFFLES AT THE 205 — Restaurant in Holland

I’ve been here a couple of times now. Depending on when you come, it can feel a bit chaotic. You order right up at the register like you would at a Starbucks. The waffle menu is very limited but seemed to have plenty of drink options. Plan on waiting awhile for your food as they mention that they have been short-staffed lately. I personally don’t mind waiting but if you’re in a hurry, you might want to come alone or a bit earlier than planned, especially if you come with a friend, as there’s a good chance that you won’t be able to eat and finish around the same time, which can be a bit awkward, especially if you’re both really hungry and now one of you gets the luxury of watching the other eat their entire meal before even being served theirs. If this is an issue, then I suggest ordering for takeout or pickup so that you get everything at once.

So flavor-wise, the waffles that I’ve tried so far are good but typical. I do wish there were more creative waffle flavor combinations or even more to choose from. Maybe I’m just expecting too much from a place that’s generally known for offering waffles 😆.

Overall, I’d say, if you’ve got plenty of time and are specifically craving 1 of the 4 flavors that they do offer, then it’s worth giving a try.

Would I come here to eat for a third and maybe even a 4th time? If I have the time, along with craving a specific waffle on the menu, or if a friend picks this place for a meetup, then...

Friendly! Clean. It's a nice coffee café. Limited menu items. Only one savory item on the menu; avocado toast. I'm generally not a fan, but it was my only choice, and it was well prepared. I would order this again. My partner loved the Nutella waffle. Latte and Mocha were both very good. The atmosphere gets a 4 star due to the lack of seating for clientele coming in with toddlers, and the loud music at 9:00 am. There are no prices on the boards for any of the beverages or food. If you don't like that, you may turn around. Our morning visit was $33.00. That is not over the top, but when you don't see prices and you are presented a total, it takes you back...

I wish this place was in my city.

Great espresso drinks, GF bakery options, and light breakfast - tidy, bright with natural light, and clean.

My cappuccino was perfect - not overwhelmed by milk. My cinnamon-roll waffle was surprisingly delicious and not too sweet. The waffle itself was perfectly crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. My partner got the avocado toast - she was a little surprised by the hard-boiled egg and tomatoes, but liked it well enough. She also got the chocolate cherry latte. She liked it, but I loved it. Again, nice cherry chocolate flavor but...
