De Bakkerszonen in Weesperbuurt/Plantage

I've been buying my Waldkorn bread here for over twenty years. But since Jimmy started working the counter in Holendrecht, the atmosphere and customer service have plummeted to such an extent that I now have to buy my bread elsewhere. Not a friendly word, not a hello, and even after an uninterested "okay," a phone order gets disconnected. I now go to the bakery in Reigersbos. What a world of difference! The people there greet you with a smile.

Nice for break fast..they have nice breads..I would suggest to include spicy spreads for small breakfast.

I’m honestly quite confused by my experience here. I walked into the bakery while wearing my AirPods and speaking on the phone. I was speaking quietly and was not disturbing anyone. There were only two customers in the bakery at the time. Another customer turned to me and told me, in French, that the manager was unhappy because I was disturbing the other customers and apparently interfering with his work by being on the phone. As a result, I ended up leaving the bakery. What I find particularly strange is that I wasn’t speaking loudly, and there was no conversation or noise beyond what you would normally expect in a bakery. So I’m genuinely wondering: are customers simply not allowed to speak on the phone here? And, by extension, are we not allowed to speak to each other either, since that would also create some level of noise? I completely understand asking someone to lower their voice if they are being disruptive, but this situation felt unnecessarily hostile and quite absurd, especially considering how quiet I was and how few people were in the bakery. Not a very welcoming experience

Very cozy and quiet place, everything was delicious 😋 and the staff were super friendly and attentive 🥰

I have enjoyed coming here to get fresh bread for over ten years, especially the dark brown round loaf (s3ir). Unfortunately, I have noticed that the quality has deteriorated significantly over the past year. Yesterday, I visited Afrah Fes’s bakery on Javastraat again. It seems as though the recipe has changed, because there is far too much salt in the bread these days. Additionally, I found a large piece of wood in my bread, which of course absolutely should not happen. In my opinion, the quality of the bread has clearly declined. I find that very unfortunate, because I always enjoyed coming here. After having already noticed that the bread was far too salty, I gave it a few more chances. But after my experience yesterday, I’ve had enough. It is a pity, because I was a loyal customer for years.
