Bruin Kafee

A place I love to visit when in Tilburg _ - on and off since 1980... Great beers, smart modern terrace, and a good spot for people watching.

Service was awful. Food did not taste fresh, and the cocktails tasted like old dish water. When I complained about the food no discounts or swaps were offered. Reply to the Owner: I received my main dish, boneless ribs, and at first taste, something seemed off. The food was very fatty, and has a strange 'raw meat' after taste. I flagged down the waitress and told her this. She just kind of stood there and looked at me. My husband and I found her physical response to be more of a "ok-well, what do you want me to do about it?" kind of thing. I explained that I was not happy, I did not find this to be nice, that it tasted off, and that I didn't want it. The waitress offered to take the plate back, which I agreed to. And that was it. I figured that I would at least be discounted considering I had not eaten any of the hoofdgerecht, but the incident was not brought up again. I had also ordered a mojito, which tasted like it was made with water which had sat in a sink for a long period of time. I did not, however, complain about this.

The hot chocolate was amazing, mint tea was really from the fresh mint and the ice cream - mmm. I'm coming back and highly recommending it to everyone!

Nothing special

Lovely place just to sit down, have some pint and chill.
