Came with a group of six, we were sat inside since there wasn't enough seating outside. Waiter gave…read moreus English menus and we ordered a lemonade, caffe latte, iced americano, and iced vanilla lattes. The coffee was alright-- the Americano tasted watered down, and the caffe latte wasn't that strong either. For food we ordered a deluxe and normal croissant, the mushroom omelet, and croque madame. The croissants were soft and airy, the croque madame was delicious, but the mushroom omelet was lacking since it was literally just mushrooms in overcooked/dry eggs over toast, which was a letdown. I ended up not finishing it.

This place came highly recommended by the interwebs. Zoervleis is described as a sour beef stew…read morewhich sounds unappetizing, I thought it tasted like beef stew in a spiced barbecue sauce, somewhere between KC and NC style. The fries were nothing special but the main was a tasty intro to local food, with a side of apple sauce to clean the palate. Mandarin sorbet was tasty and not overly sweet. It has some floral notes, perhaps honey? A lot of things are decorated with this amusing drawing of a man and woman at dinner. The man is licking his plate while the woman is holding it up like a mirror. Inside is on the smaller side, though I may be comparing to American size. It does get kind of loud.

The staff ensured we had drinks and chatted with us as we waited. Over the next four plus hours we had an incredible time. The staff was very welcoming, and the food was fantastic.

The staff disappeared for long stretches and when they did circulate they avoided eye contact. We asked for a couple items that were never delivered. The food itself was a mixed bag. The schnitzel was pretty dry even with the sauce and the frites were just ok. The salad with shrimp and smoked salmon was very good. There are too many other places in this town to dine so no need to tolerate poor service.

I have been coming to In Den Ouden Vogelstruys since 2007 when I had my first experience in…read moreMaastricht and I dare say it is one of the reasons I return. In Den Ouden Vogelstruys is a brown cafe with various claims to historical permanence. Take your pick 1700's...1800's...there's even a canon ball stuck in the outside facade labeled 1670. There are a half-dozen bars on this block all beckoning for your hard earned (or recently converted euros). I have sampled them all and In Den Ouden is by far my cuppa. This time I was not alone and wanted to get a second opinion. Kate was not disappointed. We ordered the 4 cheese plate (Limburger, Brie, goat cheese and bleu). Two wedges of each along with a French roll, 4 slices of fruit and nut bread, apple syrup and a salad of grapes, walnuts and rocket all for $13.50. We accompanied this with her local herbed liqueur coffee and my Le Trapp. We had anticipated this to be a simple bar snack but in fact turned into our lunch of the day. We in particular loved the paring of the apple syrup over the bleu cheese and the Brie on the fruit/nut bread. All was yummy and beautifully presented. This was a perfect meal to linger over and be thankful for your blessings. We will come back.

The assortment of coffees from around the world and the seasonal rotating menu is enough to keep even the more discerning customers' interest.
