Café Tante Jo in Wijk 00 Binnenstad

Contagiously fun, with all the consequences that entails.

Nice and cozy, but the service is so slow... It took way too long before we got our first beer. And not because there wasn't enough staff.

There's no atmosphere in the place. They'll give you a hard time. They're afraid you'll ask for a napkin. If you buy fries, they're afraid you'll use your card. You even have to bring your own plastic bag. Never going back!

Sometimes a quiet cafe, but still cozy. When I go out, I usually stop by here for a few drinks for the atmosphere.

The last time I was in this building was in 1989, when it was still discotheque Regina. When I stepped back inside now, I returned to that time; with the exception that a few bars, the DJ corner, and the dance floor had disappeared, it felt like little else had changed. There was still one bar left, the toilets were still the same, the same paneling was still on the wall; for a moment, I went back to good old days. But the present was unfortunately different. We had booked a bowling lane for two hours; after an hour, the lane stopped working, apparently only set for one hour. We ordered drinks at the bar, and after a while, we asked where our order was. Since it wasn't exactly busy (there were about 15 customers present), this could have been done faster. But the staff apparently considered the phone more important than preparing an order. The order for bar snacks also took a long time to arrive; we asked about that again, and 45 minutes later, it finally arrived. In short, it was not an invitation to go back here again.
