Werd door m'n neef uitgenogigd om daar te eten. In 1 woord gewldig!! Heerlijke zachte biefstuk, waar je mes in ''wegzakt'' Bord vol met heerlijke boontjes met gebakken krieltjes. Ongeloveloos, wordt in 'n soortement ''kast'' klaargemaakt!! + gezellig pilsje/wijntje drinken. Geen wijnglazen zoals 't hoort, maar ''bomvolle'' glazen!! Proficiat Werkelijk 'n aanrader!! Ouwerwets gezellig!! (Was m'n verjaardagskado, heb dus niet betaald, ben wel gelijk vaste klant geworden!!)

Vaste prik om jaarlijks na de Rotterdam Marathon hier te verzamelen en gezellig een pilsje te drinken. Echt een oud bruin cafe, dus gewoon gezellig. Hier wordt een goed glas bier getapt met onversneden Rotterdamse humor!
