Very well ran cafetaria, far above dutch average. Only point I got, mayonaise is also regarded as 'fritessaus' which just isn't the same.

Kunt buiten zitten. Zon en schaduw. Gehaktballen waren helaas op (14:00u). “Collega niet gedaan”. Dan sla ik als ervaringsdeskundige aan! Hoe dan? Frietjes perfect gebakken.Satésaus standaard ; niets speciaals. De medewerker was vriendelijk maar bestelling aan balie ophalen. Geen bediening.
