Popped in for the lunch combo&mdash;main plus dessert. Got the pasta, it was cooked right, sauce had decent depth. Pastry case looked solid too, grabbed a slice to go. Place was busy but I didn&#39;t wait long. Fair price for what you get, especially being right in the center. Nothing fancy, just a reliable spot.

Stood at the counter, had the espresso. Proper Italian bar vibe, no frills. Coffee was strong, just how I like it. Didn&#39;t bother with the seating or service, just the drink. It did the job. Maybe a bit pricey for the size, but the taste made up for it.

Coffee was solid, quiche decent. Apple cake better. Place wasn&#39;t packed, so actually managed to sit and chat for a while. Staff friendly enough. Good spot if you just want a quiet break.

The terrace is lovely when the sun&#39;s out, and the staff were friendly enough. Ice cream scoops are proper huge though, almost too much to finish.

Steak was decent, pizza pretty good too. Place felt clean, which I always appreciate. Nothing fancy but it hit the spot for a quick bite. Kinda wish the steak had more seasoning though. Fine for what it is.

Stopped by for a flat white and ended up staying longer than planned. Oat milk without the extra charge&mdash;that&#39;s rare around here. The back garden is lovely, quiet enough to actually read. Inside gets a bit cluttered though, tables not cleared as fast as I&#39;d like. Still, coffee&#39;s solid and the vibe is relaxed.

Decent spot for a quick lunch. Sandwiches were fresh and the self-serve buffet is a nice touch. Just expect a bit of a queue around noon.

Best coffee beans around, hands down. Staff actually know what they&#39;re talking about and helped me pick a bag. Worth the trip from Amsterdam just for that.

Stumbled into this place looking for a quick pint and ended up staying way longer than planned. The beer list is solid, lots of local stuff on tap. Interior is full of random antiques, feels like drinking in someone&#39;s eccentric grandpa&#39;s attic. Cozy in a weird way. Only downside, it got pretty crowded later and hard to find a seat.

The Brussels waffles were properly light, not the heavy doughy kind. Coffee was solid too. Toppings list is massive, almost overwhelming. Only thing is seating&#39;s pretty tight, and you might wait a bit for your order if it&#39;s packed. I&#39;d still grab a table by the window if you can.

Lovely terrace, loads of sun. Had a Belgian beer and just watched the street for a while. Perfect spot to do nothing. Service was fine, nothing special. Maybe a bit pricey for what it is, but the vibe makes up for it.

Food was fresh, veggie options decent. QR ordering worked fine. Outdoor seating&#39;s nice when it&#39;s not too hot. Service gets a bit slow when they&#39;re packed though. Took a while to get the bill. Solid spot if you&#39;re not in a rush.

Pancakes with bacon and eggs were a solid portion. Matcha coconut drink hit the spot. Cozy place but a bit cramped inside.

For being right in the city center, &euro;3 for a plain waffle with toppings felt pretty fair. Tasted good too, exactly what I needed for a quick snack break with my friends. Nothing fancy, but it did the job. Maybe a bit busy around midday, but we found a spot eventually.

The food was decent and the coffee menu&#39;s got some good options, but service drags a bit when it&#39;s packed. That back terrace though&mdash;genuinely a nice find. Caught it on a sunny afternoon and it made the whole stop worth it. Just wish they&#39;d clear the tables faster out there.

The golden latte was pretty good, though I wish it was a bit hotter. My dog went crazy for the banana kick treat though 😄 Cute little spot to hang with friends.

Decent terrace spot in the center. Friendly staff, but the food menu&#39;s pretty limited. Fine for drinks, less so for a full meal.

Not the cheapest, but the baristas really know their stuff. Told them I like bold flavors and they nailed it with the Cuban espresso.

Stopped by for a milkshake and ended up staying longer than planned. The cats are friendly, just doing their own thing. Milkshake was solid, not too sweet. Owner didn&#39;t rush me, which I appreciated. Place has a worn-in feel, nothing fancy. Fine if you just want a quiet break.

Decent place for a quick bite. Spaghetti with extra cheese was pretty good and the portion was generous for the price. Nothing fancy, but fine.

Came here on a Saturday morning, grabbed a seat by the window. Coffee was solid, staff didn&#39;t rush me at all. Watching the market set up while sipping was a nice way to kill an hour. Place gets busy but it&#39;s worth squeezing in.

Stopped by for a quick bite and a beer. Solid selection, and Hugo at the bar was super friendly. Got my order fast, which I appreciated. Decent spot if you&#39;re in a hurry.

Stopped by for a quick dinner and grabbed their veggie bowl. The greens were actually fresh, not wilted like you sometimes get. Liked that they had a few lighter options on the menu too. Beer list was solid, though I didn&#39;t try one this time. Service was friendly and quick. A good spot if you&#39;re nearby and want something simple.

The pistachio pancakes were the reason I stopped in and yeah, they didn&#39;t disappoint. Really flavorful, cooked just right. Coffee&#39;s decent overall, though my cappuccino was a bit all over the place. Still, I&#39;d grab those pancakes again if I&#39;m in the area. 👍

The waffles are solid&mdash;crispy outside, soft inside. I went right at opening and a couple of the specialty flavors weren&#39;t ready yet. Staff told me straight away instead of letting me wait around. Appreciated that. Good spot if you&#39;re nearby and want a proper Belgian waffle without the fuss.

Vegan toastie was solid and filling, staff actually seemed happy to help. Citronelle chai hit the spot too, different from the usual chai places.

The apple cake caught me off guard&mdash;so moist, and it paired really well with my cappuccino. Quiet little spot to escape the tourist rush for a bit. Just wish the slice was a bit bigger, honestly.

Came for coffee on a Sunday morning, barista took time to explain the pastries. Coffee was solid, nothing fancy. Paid &euro;12 for two, felt fair for the vibe.

The terrace is perfect for people-watching, that&rsquo;s the main draw. We only had beers and snacks, and the waiter was efficient enough. Wouldn&rsquo;t come for a full meal though.
