A classic snack bar for croquettes and simple Dutch fast food, useful when you want something quick and local rather than a sit-down meal.

Signature
Croquette sandwich

Another tiktok famous! I came here outside eating hour and it’s still a bit packed, the waiters are a bit busy so it took a while to order & pay (but after you order, the food was served really fast) I LOOOOVEE the ambience, somehow it screams LOCAL! & AUTHETIC! Because almost all people inside are locals i think and the menu is representative of what dutch food is~ tried the Broodje halfom (half meat half liver) OMG SOO GOOD! Please use their mustard in the table too! It is 100/100! Would love to be back for other menu~

If you’re a tourist looking for a true touchdown meal, this is the place to go. The waitstaff was incredibly kind, and as a solo traveler, they took the time to tell me exactly what to do and where to eat around the city, which was extremely helpful. The food absolutely matches the service. I had the croquette, which melted in my mouth, and the steak tartare sandwich which was simple, yet truly incredible.

The food and coffee is average. There is no queue. The 2 woman staff were sarcastic when i ask what i can eat it with. A simple question as being a stranger here i thot i will like to eat with sardines.. i want to explain that locals loves their herrings and again rebutted me with attitude that the fishes are not the same. The main menu had no prices. To a customer it is good to be knowledgeable but not sarcastically . I just want to eat their croquettes with fish not education on fish OMG.. these staffs should go for customer service training and also thanks for reminding that i can eat with my hands and mouth in front of other customers.

Went here because this place was all over tiktok, the influencers were insisting that this place look unassuming but is delicious. I can’t agree, I am not sure what’s worse the service or food. I kept getting ignored by the servers, I would stand right in front of them and try to speak to them but they prioritized joking with each other or other customers that came later than me. Not sure if it’s because I’m a tourist. We tried different food from their menu, I honestly did not like any of it. The buns were promised to be so light and airy, but they taste like regular american store-bought buns. Meat is also very mid, lowkey looks like slop.

A true local dutch eatery. Perfect bites with good material. They are famous for their croquettes, and I loved the warm roast pork with sauté sauce. They are not that much welcoming to tourists at first sight, but it's worth a visit.
