Class By Jofel in Centrum

What beautifully served dishes and very good flavor; they take any allergies into account.

Nice, cozy, friendly and fast service and: delicious food, generous portions.

Having drinks on the terrace. Tasty snacks. Fast, friendly service. It's a shame summer is over. Will definitely try the restaurant soon.

Had a delicious meal, good service, and enjoyed sitting outside. Nice menu.

Delicious food with ditto service.

We thought it would be nice to have something to eat or drink on the terrace outside. We sat there for 15 minutes, but were probably invisible to the staff. It wasn't busy, about 6 tables occupied. The table next to us was served, and without looking at us, she walked back inside to pick up an order for others. Then we went to look for another place.

We ate here for the first time and it was absolutely great. We will definitely come more often; we had a lovely evening.

The crispy ginger sea bass was fantastic! Service was prompt and friendly, and they accommodated my allergies. Very high quality food.

Went out for dinner with my son, and it was delicious. The starter was top-notch, the main course even better. I'm not really into desserts; I always want a special coffee, and that was good too, but that's to be expected. 9.50 is quite pricey, but then again, if you check the website beforehand, you shouldn't complain. In short, highly recommended as a culinary experience.

Great food. Good service. Lovely terrace.

I had a delicious lunch at Jofel Zoetermeer. The staff was very attentive, and when we asked if our dish was really vegetarian, it was taken very seriously, which my vegetarian sister really appreciated.

Very good service and good food, of course.

The food was delicious, but we had to wait a long time for it. 1 waitress and 1 cook for the whole place.

We ordered 3 cocktails at 8:30 PM. The waiter's response was: the bar won't be happy about it, everything has already been cleaned. Bear in mind that it is Saturday weather, and the terrace is still more than half full. How welcome are you then??????

Friendly, efficient service and great sandwiches 👌

Had a lovely lunch during ‘Dutch Dachshund Day’. The terrace was completely full, but the service was very quick. The Jofel sandwich is highly recommended!

Good and efficient service, delicious food, excellent chardonnay and sunny terrace.

What a lovely place! Four of us dined there yesterday. Super friendly service, delicious food. Definitely worth coming back!

Good food, but too busy, too little staff, too long wait, way too much noise (>85 db).⁹

Ten of us dined here. The service was great, even with the restaurant packed. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was great.

Super cozy, and delicious food.

Delicious food, atmosphere was cozy, service was great. Could have been a little faster though, it was a long evening, but it was still enjoyable.

Great restaurant, great service and really good food

Super cozy restaurant. Beautifully decorated. The food is top-notch with an extensive menu.

We had a great evening. We will definitely be back.

We were there on Christmas Day with 12 people, 8 adults and 4 children, it was fantastic, nice and relaxed, cozy, good food, service was perfect, just a top evening for all of us, I say thank you for the beautiful and positive experience, we will definitely come back again, top

A truly wonderful establishment with a warm atmosphere and highly skilled staff, who know how to strike the perfect balance between craftsmanship and joviality. Highly recommended and unlike any other Zoetermeer restaurant.

Always great service and delicious food!

Delicious food and friendly staff

Delicious food, great service, nice atmosphere.

We had a meeting here with members of the Zeotermeer "Die goede ouwe tijd" (The Good Old Days), featuring a report on former shops and businesses. This generated a lot of discussion. The service was excellent and friendly.

Great location and delicious food. Definitely recommended for a meal.

NOT RECOMMENDED AT ALL!!!!!! I ate there with my husband. He ordered the tenderloin and I ordered the sole. When we got the bill, I was shocked because I had to pay €56 for the sole. That amount was simply out of proportion compared to all the other prices. We mentioned it later, but the guy said there was nothing he could do about it. We won't be going back!!!!!!

I'm a fan of Jofel, but tonight was a very disappointing experience. I chose the sole. It was listed as the daily price. I know sole is expensive. It was €50. Oh well. What a disappointment! The fish was very dry. The typical, delicate flavor of sole was barely detectable. When I expressed my disappointment while clearing the table, the waiter acknowledged, judging by the remains, that the fish was too dry. Apparently, he'd forgotten this by the time he presented the bill. What a shame. It reminds me of the motto, "You should only eat fish in a fish restaurant in a fishing port." Next time, then.

Cozy place but drinks very expensive

Nice terrace to have a drink when the weather is nice

I highly recommend anyone (with an allergy) NOT to eat here. They have no understanding of celiac disease, constantly sigh, and yell at the kitchen. I find the atmosphere unpleasant and unprofessional. It makes me feel unsafe. Not a pleasant experience.

Tonight we had dinner at Jofel for the first time. When we arrived it was quite full. First a delicious sandwich as a starter and then the beef tataki. This was really great! After that the diamond hare which was also perfect with a delicious thickened gravy.

A disgusting experience of abuse and discrimination by the so-called ‘manager’ of the restaurant. Today my wife arrived at the restaurant with our 2-year-old daughter. She had just bought an ice cream in the immediate vicinity and wanted to sit quietly on the terrace to eat something savoury, while our daughter ate her ice cream. At that moment I was not there yet. The waiter, who introduced himself as “Bob” and claimed to be the manager of the restaurant, showed an aggressive, misogynistic and hostile attitude. Instead of addressing my wife in a polite and hospitable manner — as one would expect in the catering industry — she was rudely and derogatorily sent away, just because she already had an ice cream with her. According to him, it was “policy” that people are not allowed to eat ice cream from outside on the terrace. But instead of calmly explaining or informing them, this person chose to address a mother with a small child in a rude and insulting manner. When I arrived and wanted to order something in Dutch, he suddenly changed his attitude completely — simply because he saw that I was going to consume and was a man. It was very clear that my wife and daughter were being treated as second-class people, just because they seemed alone and vulnerable. He did not apologize. On the contrary: he even wanted to chase them away. In the four years that I have lived in the Netherlands, I have never experienced such humiliating and disrespectful treatment. We are working people, we pay taxes, contribute to society — no one deserves to be treated like this. We even considered this restaurant as a location for our company's summer drinks. After this shameful experience, that is out of the question. We will also report this incident to Koninklijke Horeca Nederland and other relevant authorities, because this behavior is completely contrary to the values ​​of hospitality, equality and respect. An absolute disgrace. This establishment urgently needs to review the behavior and level of its staff.

You get the Toppers!!!! As the song says, "You get it, not enough!!"

Today I sat down on your terrace. Tried to contact your staff several times. But the staff has no eye for your guests at all. After 30 minutes I sat down with your neighbours. Missed opportunity….

Had a drink on Sunday afternoon. Friendly greeting by staff. Also offered a bowl of water for the dog. Nice music, although it was quite loud inside. Definitely worth repeating.

Delicious food, quite pricey, but definitely worth it!!

We had a delicious meal, there is something for everyone. Super varied, lovely service, definitely recommended

Skewer of tenderloin including fries and grandma's stew

We held a company/farewell party here. Well organised, neatly within budget and tasty snacks.

We were there on March 20, 2025 around 1:00 PM. The girl's service was not too friendly. After we had placed the order, I asked her for butter. Because otherwise I wouldn't be able to get rid of the bread. Waited long never got it. Finally, a boy asked for the bill at another service. Shame

Super tasty food for a reasonable price!

We like to come here for both lunch and dinner; delicious food, especially the large carpaccio and pasta tenderloin! Service could be a bit faster, for example it may take a while before you can order your first drink and receive the menu. Nevertheless: see you soon! 😊

Cozy and good restaurant. We had lunch there and it was perfect, but I am convinced that dinner will also be fine.

We went to Class by Jofel on Dorpstraat in Zoetermeer for the Christmas dinner. The dinner was delicious (our 7 years old even ate tomato soup!). Service was outstanding. We will definitely be back

Delicious dishes, even had stress about choosing!! Had opted for smashed avocado with burata cheese, which was delicious. My husband had a satay plate and my girlfriend had bitterballen with fries. We thoroughly enjoyed it! Really get out.

High wine was heerlijk.Bediening goed Maar ik had een minpuntje. nl het TOILET. 2 hoge trappen. Niet voor iedereen toegankelijk! Tip: (invalide) toilet beneden?? Anders kom ik niet meer.

High wine delicious today. Staff excellent. Complaint: the TOILET! 2 high stairs. Not accessible to everyone. Why not 1 downstairs?

Had lunch here. Nice tent on a square. The inside of the restaurant looks fine. The B.EGG.LT was very doable. Good quantity and plate well filled. Friendly staff. Allergies are taken into account.

Food is always fresh and well prepared, good flavors. Management takes good care of their guests, very friendly and attentive. Definitely recommended for a good lunch.

To start with the most important thing, we had a delicious meal here. The starter, the truffle risotto with tenderloin tips, always makes you happy. Enjoy. It's not cheap at all, but where is that... The downside was the waiting time between courses, you have to take your time. Service was very friendly, which makes up for a lot. I'll be back.

Good pub. Relaxed atmosphere. The peanuts were missing from the drinks this time. Perhaps budget cuts.

Lekker gegeten, maar die muizen over de vloer waren niet fijn. Dat is echt niet hygiënisch en moet anders kunnen. Ik zie ook dat er al eerder over geschreven is. Het excuus dat het een oud gebouw is, lijkt me nirt steekhoudend.

Much too expensive, it could really be less, it doesn't have a Michelin star anyway

Super tasty food, especially the sushi and the salmon, friendly service and certainly a child-friendly waiter who did everything he could to make the youngest grandchild happy, great, will definitely come back

Delicious food, service is friendly, I will definitely come back here

The atmosphere is super nice, and the service is kind and fast but the food missed taste

Pleasantly surprised by the quality of this restaurant, not cheap but delicious food, top.

Nice place for dinner! Varied menu, well-known dishes: something for everyone.

Fantastic! Good and fast service, nice service and the food is tasty.

Good food, good atmosphere and excellent service!

This was the first time for us, we were invited. Delicious and tasty food. Nice interior, but the music was a bit hearty. We will definitely come back.

Last Thursday I spontaneously ended up on the terrace, ordered a beer and was helped so nicely by that nice slightly older woman with black hair and tattooed. So attentive and service oriented! I wanted to thank her for the good care and I will definitely visit more often. I actually wanted to ask for her number but I didn't think it was appropriate. I have been before in the past but she is truly an asset! So nice woman whose name I don't know, I'll come back for a snack and a drink soon! 😁

Op het oog zag het er gezellig uit. Heel druk zowel binnen als buiten. Muziek veelte hard en ook veelte warm binnen. Deuren gingen pas open na het vragen. Kregen koude patat. Net na het toetje vielen ons ineens de muizen op,meerdere. Na aangeven bij personeel was het lacherig ja daar loopt er ook 1. Maar in de keuken zijn ze niet hoor.

The high point is over, fine to eat. The service has become really crappy, very messy, chaotic and disorganized. If it had been my store, I would have put things in order. The food was more than fine. But I see it more often at restaurants after a few years.

It was fun again. Went out for dinner with the family. Food is delicious. People are friendly. The restaurant looks great. Definitely recommended

What? No more apple pie on the menu?? A meager cup of coffee with a wrapped cookie...I won't drink coffee here anymore...

We, 2 friends and I, had lunch here. Without exaggerating, it took us 25 minutes before we finally received a menu! And we only got the card when I asked for it myself, which was a bit strange. Large terrace, far too few shaded areas, all clients wanted shade, so do something with it! After we ordered it took another 25 minutes for our carpaccio sandwiches to arrive. These were okay, but nothing special. The staff was anything but pleasant or friendly. A young man and a young lady, both walked around with an expression of "it will take my time". Finally ordered a dessert (dame blanche), which again took quite a while, but it was busier on the terrace now, so that's possible. We didn't get any cutlery, so I asked for that. “Sure, go get it right away,” said the young man. Just took 10 minutes, my ice cream was now a pathetic melted puddle. Really a shame! When I asked the young lady for the bill this time, she said "you really want it on paper?!" As if that's a strange question🙄, so I said "yes please". Then she said, sighing deeply, "Well then, I'll get that!" I find this behavior of the staff far below standard. I think it's rude behavior, especially when you know that I paid € 106.50. They didn't get a tip, they really need to try harder for that. Fortunately, as friends, we didn't let this spoil the atmosphere. But it is very unfortunate.

Very good help and delicious food. Highly recommended!!

Every last Friday of the month you can enjoy an evening of dancing in Class van Jofel. It's called staying behind. You have to buy tickets for this and be on time because it is sold out and busy. Because there are a lot of people inside, it is always very warm, but very cozy!

Really delicious food but the service was disappointing. At one point we asked if we could order food. Took way too long. Then someone took the order, looking kind of irritated.... a bit of a shame for a lunch for which you paid 100 euros.

15 juni dit restaurant bezocht met mijn vrouw. Ik had als voorgerecht een carpatio, en een ossehaas als hoofgerecht. De carpatio vond ik redelijk standaard, en eigenlijk niets bijzonders. Doorsnee, maar goed. De ossehaas was erg goed, en keurig opgediend op een verwarmd bord. Lekker mals stukje vlees, in een pepersausje. Vond alleen de groente op het bord wat karig, maar we lekker. Heerlijke zelfgemaakte friet. Als magerecht een ijs met slagroom en aardbeien. Standaard spuitroom uit een fles, maar de aardbeien waren grandioos. Mij vrouw had dezelfde menu keuze, en had alleen een ander voorgerecht. Soep van de dag, die ze erg vlak van smaak vond. Deelde wel mijn mening over de rest van de maaltijd. Sfeer was goed met een heel atente en vriendelijke bediening. Goede ervaring, en hier komen we zeker nog een keer terug.

Super tasty food! As far as I'm concerned, this is worth a 5 star restaurant.

Good food, cozy tent and friendly staff

Unfortunately, we did not have the best experience here. They made a mistake with the drink, which can happen, no problem with that. But then the best thing you can do is apologize and offer to change it instead of acting annoyed. The food in itself is quite dated. On top of it, we had a couple of steaks, one medium, the other medium rare. The first came medium, the second was way over, borderline well done. The vegetables that came with it were mushy and under seasoned. Pity.

Wonderful, cozy place and nicely decorated. It's nice that the starter / share option is large enough for small eaters as a main course. The music was a bit loud, but all in all we had a nice evening!

Delicious salmon sandwich, although we came for coffee and apple pie, which they don't serve here, which was a shame

I've been coming here for many years and the food is always fantastic! They have a delicious menu from which you can only eat a shared dinner. A quick main course or a delicious extensive dinner, it's all possible. The menu has something for everyone, the sushi is delicious, but the tenderloin tips are also phenomenal! Unfortunately the staff has deteriorated slightly. The former boy group (service) was always very strict. Now you notice that there are some younger workers who still lack the insight and are there to earn their money and not necessarily to make it a top evening for the guest (which is what you expect for their class). They spend a lot of time with each other and less with what is happening around them. As a result, simple things are forgotten, such as placing cutlery or information is recorded incorrectly. Hopefully this will be further refined. But despite that, it is a wonderful restaurant, with a nice terrace, and definitely worth eating. I still enjoy coming there and am already looking forward to the next dinner!

Had a wonderful high tea, delicious court clerk, savory and sweet! Excellent service. Oh yes, and also many types of tea that were very tasty!

Super nice and relaxed atmosphere. Nice service, good food.

We sat a bit apart and the service didn't always notice us, since we had to wait a little longer.

SUPER delicious food! Highly recommended!!!

Always good food, great friendly service and comfortable new decor.

Despite the wind, enjoy lunch in the sun on the terrace with a delicious Aix rosé, with a tasty sandwich of course.

Nice meal. Service was fine. Nice atmosphere! It just took a while between dishes, which makes it a full evening program.

The food was really great! Just put those high chairs somewhere else! It's super disturbing when you're having a nice meal, and the staff squeezes between you and a wall (several times) and then lifts a chair over your head and then touches you repeatedly. It's really not nice to have to poke and push every time. In addition, a plate of the wall repeatedly fell against me. Couldn't say sorry or anything!

Leuk gezellig restaurant, super lekker gegeten, vlees etc perfect ..aanrader en bediening erg vriendelijk...ga hier zeker weer terug!

Not suitable for just having a drink (then you just won't be swept aside). Too bad, because it's a nice thing.

Had lunch with friends. Wide choice, delicious food at a reasonable price.

Professional friendly service, tasty lunch, sufficient choice and reasonable prices. Definitely come back again.

Excellent lunch, slightly above average for a lunch, but a wonderfully quiet atmosphere where you can have a good chat together. Nice place for a drink with friends.

It was a very busy evening with Christmas drinks and an event with Kika. Still quite helpful and we will soon return at a better time

I had the chicken in a peanut sauce, was very good.

Kicked out at club night for no reason. The guard also refused to give a reason.
