Offering lovely "delish" Dutch street eats during the lockdown.
Nice spot to watch the game, be ready for standing room only as the space is cute and cozy
We had such an excellent time at Borrel! The atmosphere is fantastic. It's so cozy and filled with fun decorations. We shared a bunch of plates and were so excited with the amount of vegetarian friendly options. I have literally thought about the bitterballen and fries every day since. The fries are the perfect cut and crispiness and the dutch mayo and peanut satay combo is fabulous. I have described these fries at length to all my coworkers. 15/10. Fantastic spot!!!
Borrel is a vibrant Dutch-Indonesian restaurant that offers a distinctive culinary experience. The restaurant's atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff provides excellent service, making it an ideal spot for group gatherings and celebrations. The menu features a range of traditional dishes, including Boerenkool, bitterballen, chicken satay, and lekkerbek, which are all expertly prepared and delicious.
Diners have found the Dutch food to be satisfying, especially the Boerenkool, which comes with a large, juicy sausage and well-seasoned bacon bits, although some felt the kale and potato mash could be more flavorful. The Indonesian dishes have received mixed reviews, with some stating that they did not taste fully authentic, yet were still enjoyable. The lekkerbek n chips was noted for its perfectly cooked fish and delicious batter, though the portion size was considered small. The thousand layered cake was praised for its authentic taste but was also described as small and not sweet enough.
Borrel is a great place to try something new and satisfy cravings for Dutch-Indonesian cuisine. Diners have expressed a desire to return for more dishes, particularly the bitterballen. With its warm atmosphere, good decor, and attentive staff, Borrel is a wonderful spot to visit with friends or experience a taste of home away from home.
