The staff is very friendly, attentive and accommodating. The restaurant is in the perfect location from the Fletcher hotel, but I would make the trip regardless of my stay just for the food and inviting environment. The menu offers plenty to choose from, and everything is absolutely delectable. The beers are cold and the wines always pleasant. As the surrounding area develops, I eagerly anticipate them remaining open on the weekends. For now, I enjoy them regularly during the week and Friday nights. Thanks Johan for the delectable meals and refreshments, I simply love your Grand Cafe ZO!

This place is well-hidden! Somehow whenever one thinks of a place to meet for coffee in Leiden it's…read morealways Roos, Lebkov, Anne&Max, or Coffee Company... All of those places are great, but this one is still worth considering because: A) It's next to the Pieterskerk, aka in an area with relatively few other cafes (ok you could walk 3 minutes down the road to the busy area but one gets lazy when living in such a small town) B) It's still relatively unknown and has an unpronounceable name, so you're very likely to get a table C) They make great coffee, and I've heard they have insanely good sandwiches. D) It's adorable and very cozy. E) I'm pretty sure it faces the part of the square where they used to hang people. Perhaps a turn-off for some people, I think it's kind of cool - counterbalances the quaintness. Worth a look anyway!

Blackbird is perfectly located on beautiful Oudegracht in the centre of Utrecht and is selling…read moregreat coffee and vintage items. Blackbird is situated in quite a small space but has lots to offer. Not only they brew good coffee but also sell art, 60-70s style furniture, t-shirts and vintage bicycles. It is one of the first espresso bars in Utrecht combining the possibility of drinking coffee with shopping. Blackbird uses Koffieslab beans which are nice but sometimes have a sour note (don't kill the messenger, it's a personal preference). Apart from coffee Blackbird has a small menu with breakfast, dessert and refreshing drinks options. Baked goodies are made from biological products and are quite ok, but unfortunately very inconsistent and definitely not the best in town. Overall, Blackbird is a nice place for a cup of coffee and definitely a noticeable stop in search for interesting vintage items.

In my mind, the perfect cafe perfectly captures the "third place" concept - cozy enough to feel like home. I think the Dutch call that vibe - 'gezellig'. The perfect cafe also has a well-rounded selection of teas, coffees, sandwiches, cakes, and a solid soup of the day. Finally, because I am also slightly basic, the perfect cafe must be insta-worthy from the design of its store to the plating of its food and coffees. Sand's, Cakes and Bubbles is a perfect cafe. From the cozy decor, to the menus hung cutely on clothing hangers, to the beautifully garnished food and drinks, everything about Sand's Cakes and Bubbles is insta-worthy and gezellig to the power of lekker. And yes .. lekker. I have had my share of sandwiches in my lifetime, and the way they balance flavours in their sandwiches at Sand's, Cakes & Bubbles is really jaw-dropping. The truffle sandwiches is probably one of the best sandwiches I have had in my life, and don't even get me started on the soups! Amazing. Highly recommend Sand's Cakes & Bubbles if you're looking for a cozy, chill afternoon with a book and some oldies music playing in the background.

That didn't bother us because we weren't in the market for dinner so we just ordered some beer and dessert. We ended up hanging out for so long that we decided to order dinner. We both ordered burgers. I added Gorgonzola to my burger, which was strong and stinky. My motto is: the stinkier the cheese the better, so this suited me nicely. The bread was a little hard for my liking, but the flavor was top notch. This place has a ton of ambiance, as it's set inside shipping containers. It's a great place for a snack, dessert and coffee, or a full on meal.
