It's an impressive spread, but the standouts were the house-made focaccia and the vibrant, fresh pesto--you could really taste the quality. The combination of savory prosciutto, mortadella, and mozzarella with scrambled eggs was delicious, and finishing with a cannoli was a treat. Bob opted for the Banana Bread, which was clearly fresh-baked and came loaded with yogurt, granola, and fruit. He loved it. The space itself is intimate and high-energy, but it never felt cramped; instead, it had a cheerful, cozy vibe that made us want to linger. Service was excellent, attentive without being overbearing. A definite recommendation for anyone looking for a high-quality morning meal!

If I wasn't dying for a cup of coffee I don't think we would have stopped in. I'm so glad we did. It has a seriously cool vibe. The ceilings are filled with hanging live green plants and there's plenty of options for single seating or small group seating. They have board games strewn about he room and fun floppy pillows on benches to sit on. We enjoyed some fabulous banana bread and a delicious cappuccino. We actually liked it so much that we ran back the next morning before our flight and brought some friends along to enjoy the experience. At the back of the cafe is a cute little shop with local gifts that you can grab to share with friends back home.

Great location, beautiful decor, menu... not for me…read more I think I am going to start using a new word for this experience "Insta-trap". Insta-trap, similar to a tourist trap, is when the food ends up taking a major backseat in the experience to a good location, or in this case, excellent decor and plating. In my opinion, CoffeeLab felt an awful lot like an Insta-trap. The decor, the plating - beautifully curated. The menu... not so much. Word of advice: if you are here for the instagrammable vines hanging from the ceiling and the trendy wooden boards and jam jar coffees, stick to desserts and coffee. The "lunch" menu felt tired and lackluster. If I rattled off a few adventurous-sounding ingredients that could be made into sandwiches that took minimal effort that would be these sandwiches. One bite into my spicy chicken and jalapeno sandwich and it was clear it did not take much effort to make this. Simple ingredients, hardly any flavour, no garnish. I think the most egregious part of this experience was that they had not even bothered to wipe off the knife from cutting my friend's goat cheese sandwich before mine so residue from her sandwich was all over mine. And the coffee! Maybe this is just not for me but the Espresso Tonic was definitely not something I would enjoy in the summer. I'm pretty open-minded with coffee. I'll try the trendy Robusta-only espressos in Shoreditch or the Nitro brews in San Francisco, but this drink was so far from sweet or summery (as advertised). It was... mineral and severely bitter. Overall it was a little disappointing. Coffeelab was the first on my list of things to do on my first trip to Eindhoven. Maybe it was just me expecting a little more, but if you came here for the Insta, then by all means you will not be disappointed. But if you wanted lunch, maybe try somewhere else. And if you wanted coffee, by all means - avoid that 4 euro espresso tonic.

We moved to a spot where three employees could see us while they were working on completing orders. It was clear that we were in line waiting to order.

The place looked like a nice environment, however, service was very poor.

Aside from the fact that they close at 5PM everyday (except Thursdays they close at 6PM), this place is perfect if you're looking for a quick bite. They have an assortment of freshly squeezed juices, bakery items, sandwiches, teas and coffee. I've tried the following: - Gezond Van Bakkertje Bol aka Healthy Sandwich (€4.75). This is their signature sandwich. It contains ham, cheese, boiled eggs, tomato, lettuce, cucumber, and mayonnaise. Dutch mayonnaise is so good! You pick whether you'd like it with Italian, dark brown or white bread. I highly recommend it. - Vegetarian quiche (€3.05). It's huge, warmed up before serving, and delicious. - Mini donut. The dough was dense but soft. It had sprinkles of sugar instead of a ridiculous glaze of something representing a heartattack waiting to happen. If you like a simple old-fashioned donut, this is for you. - Cappuccino (€1.90). Haven't had a single cup of bad cappuccino in the Netherlands and this one is no different. All this delicious food for just under €11... My mind is blown. Definitely recommend coming here if you get a chance.

This is a review just for their ice cream, which can be summed up into: sweet, too sweet…read more I've tried 4 of their ice cream flavors now, and 2 of them have been a complete bust. The ones I didn't like: - The hazelnut just tasted like sugar, lacking any distinct flavor. - The yogurt lychee apricot tasted like yogurt plus sugar. I could barely taste any hint of lychee or apricot. The ones I thought were okay: - The strawberry was more like a sherbet. - The red velvet did not taste like red velvet, but I didn't find it too sweet at least. The cone they use also tastes like it's riddled with sugar. I actually didn't plan on coming here a second time, except that as I left, I saw a customer with a meringue disc on top of their ice cream, and I really wanted to try that as well. Two tips from me: 1. Turns out the meringue discs are free! How come it's not offered to every customer then? How come there's no sign for it? In any case, I'm letting you guys know now! If you want to spiff up your ice cream for free, ask for that meringue disc. 2. You get a cone + 1 scoop of ice cream for €2. If you want a cone + 2 scoops, it's €4..... Just buy 2 cones with 1 scoop of ice cream each then. I mean, if you don't want to, that's fine. But if they're not discounting the second scoop, then I'm getting a second cone, lol. Service-wise, I had a mixed experience. When I came yesterday, the person scooping the ice cream just did not care. However much they scooped the first time was however much the customer received... As a result, I saw some people with the tiniest scoops (like half the size of my single scoop)! Today, the person scooping the ice cream was a lot more diligent and competent. If the first scoop wasn't a lot, they'd scoop another smaller scoop so that every customer got roughly the same amount of ice cream. I'm sure not everyone pays attention to things like this, but I try to take note of small stuff from time to time. In this case, it's about making sure every customer can leave feeling like they're being treated the same. It's what sets the "I have hands" employees apart from the "I have hands and a brain" employees. Overall, I wasn't impressed with the ice cream, so I probably won't come back here, again.
