Fantastic experience! The bar offers a cozy atmosphere with a blend of rustic and modern decor. The staff is attentive and knowledgeable, enhancing the visit. The selection of local beers is impressive; I particularly enjoyed the ‘Texels - tap’ for its balanced bitterness and fruity aroma. Given the quality of both the drinks and service, every penny spent was worthwhile. Highly recommend for those seeking excellent local brews in a welcoming setting.

Fantastic bar on the edge of the red light district. We went most days on our trip and you always get a warm welcome. The gift boxes of liqueurs are an absolute bargain. Always good to see the boss Celine behind the bar. Highly recommend.

Friendly welcome from the lady behind the bar who explained patiently which beer was on each tap. I tried the wheat beer and the dark beer. Both were lovely. My wife accompanied me with a soft drink. As with other pubs I visited in this area, it had a nice charming atmosphere.
