Want to know the toughest part of being an American overseas? Finding a place to watch the Super…read moreBowl!!!! When I studied abroad in the Netherlands sometimes I searched for that little piece of home that was comforting and said "hey, its all good." For me, that thing was the Duke of Oz on superbowl sunday in Leiden. I had been to this bar many times in my many months spend in Leiden, but it just so happened it was one of the only places airing the game. Not only did the drinks taste extra good that day. If I can recall - and this was tough because I may have indulged in one too many Heinekens - they were serving up free food and snacks. Beer... check! Food... check! Superbowl... check! Now if you can imagine anything wrong with this picture you have some serious issues. But on that faithful night there was only one thing that would have ruined my most sacred Sunday and can you guess what that is? The game was broadcasted on a British station THEREFORE you guessed it... NO AMERICAN COMMERCIALS. Now if that wasn't a buzz kill I don't know what is. I really can't complain though, can I? Living in a foreign country, drinking the Netherlands finest, and watching the big game? Doesn't get any better than that.

A mixed grill for two, incl. dessert; 25€. But the price is the least of the attraction. The meat was cooked to absolute perfection. The salad was crisp and dressed just right and I have to say, that it has got to be the best fried chips I've had on my trip to the Netherlands. The service was attentive and very friendly and the food arrived at a timely fashion. We sat outside in the small, but very quaint and cosy yard. Inside was a darkend and snugly lit bar. Very nice. Star #5 is lacking due to the dessert, which was a bit of a let down. Not homemade anything. All the r est was however, the nice surprise I had hoped for.

A big plus -- the place is pet-friendly, which made it even better since we brought our little Milo ! It's a great spot for drinks and charcuterie, and if you're feeling hungry, they also offer excellent meal options. The service was fantastic and very welcoming. Highly recommend! De sfeer is hier heerlijk ontspannen, met een fantastisch uitzicht pal aan het strand. Er zijn veel zitmogelijkheden en we hadden geluk dat we zonder reservering toch een plekje vonden. Een groot pluspunt: het is huisdiervriendelijk, wat het nog leuker maakte omdat we onze kleine Milo mee hadden! Het is een geweldige plek voor drankjes en charcuterie, en als je trek hebt, bieden ze ook uitstekende maaltijdopties aan. De service was fantastisch en zeer gastvrij. Zeker een aanrader!
