Omdat ik in een rolstoel zit,was mijn binnenkomst een beetje problematisch. Met hulp van diverse klanten was dit gauw geklaard. De sfeer is goed en de bediening is ook prima. Dus voor herhaling vatbaar. Proost.

Sadly they had very limited options for breakfast foods. As in only toast according to the staff. Additionally they said that they also don’t serve many things that are on the menu. Which makes sense to why it was so empty.
