De Kater in Wijk 00 Binnensingelgebied

What a mouthful! This afternoon I had lunch at De Kater and enjoyed a Shanghai Chicken sandwich. The chicken was just right, and the slightly sweet and spicy sauce perfectly enhanced the meat's flavor. The staff are friendly, professional, and hospitable. A top-notch place!

De Kater is absolutely recommendable! The service is exceptionally friendly and attentive, the food is truly delicious, and the drinks selection is impressive. You can tell that quality and hospitality are valued here. A visit is definitely worthwhile – I'll gladly come back.

Simply a nice atmosphere to linger in... We only had drinks...

We stopped in spontaneously, and the young blond man was very nice 👍🏼 Super friendly. We'll gladly come again 😃👍🏼

Lovely bistro. Pleasant atmosphere, very friendly staff.

You have to wait so long here to order. The staff is more focused on each other than on the customers. That's a real shame. But I won't be back.

A tasty dish of the day for little money, cozy atmosphere, very friendly staff!

Good food and drinks, the hangover ball with fries is recommended

We waited 45 min for this, tasted bad(

Racist staff, stalking what i’m drinking and kicking all of us out because one of us didn’t have an ID with her even if she is 21, food is mid

improve your customer service, got kicked out because my parents ordered me a drink when i didn’t have my id (i am of age) and she made a comment ‘here in our country laws are different read them’ as if she was racist. blonde woman

Enjoy delicious food and coffee in a cozy interior

We thought we'd have a nice meal (for two people). We got a starter (a baguette) quickly, but the main course took over an hour. After asking, we received one main course (and how) which was almost thrown on the table. We also didn't have any cutlery, which the waitress saw and said, "Oh yeah, I'll bring your cutlery later." Within minutes, it was thrown in front of me, and she then (while leaving) wished me "enjoy your meal." My girlfriend and I looked at each other: what do you mean, enjoy your meal? I'm still missing a main course... We waited patiently (for 10 minutes, otherwise my dish will get cold—I'm not eating alone, of course) and finally asked where my girlfriend's dish was. The waitress thought it was strange and immediately went to check on it. Conclusion: something had gone wrong in the kitchen, so they're going to fix it. It was a dish that wasn't ready that quickly (shrimp), so we politely declined and asked for the bill (my dish can go back to the kitchen, because I don't need it anymore). Meanwhile, we both consumed two drinks, of which we each got one free... all in all, a very unpleasant experience at De Kater; I won't be back anytime soon. Too bad!

For decades, a wonderfully welcoming spot in the heart of Enschede. A great place for drinks or a casual bite to eat.

Delicious food, excellent service

Breakfast was really great! Thank you 🙏

Very tasty burgers, right in the heart of Enschede! We found the prices fair and the food delicious!

During our vacation, we landed in Enschede and strolled through the streets. The menu appealed to us the most, so we stayed for dinner. We enjoyed the meat, the pasta, and our drinks. The service was attentive and courteous at all times. It was, of course, very busy on a Friday evening. A real recommendation, and we'd love to come back!

The experience was great! The waitress was very attentive and friendly; she immediately gave us an English menu because she heard we didn't speak Dutch :) The food was plentiful and delicious! A plus point: German music was playing :p The ambiance was chic and unusual, something you don't see very often :) It was great!

If you're looking for a truly cozy atmosphere and delicious food, RUN to the hangover! They're super friendly, the wait for drinks or food isn't long, and everything is done as quickly as possible! Highly recommended!

It takes a long time to get served. There are four people behind the bar waiting. And cleaning could use some improvement; the dust from the lamps is almost falling down. It's been deteriorating lately.

A huge beer garden on Enschede's market square with great food and a wide selection of beers. The waiters here really make a difference.

I've always been a big fan of the hangover, and I loved coming here when I was a student. Yesterday, we had lunch, which was disappointing; it wasn't what we were used to from the hangover. The club sandwich couldn't be picked up because they were already prepared... In the end, it turned out to be more of a grilled cheese sandwich than a club sandwich. The outer layer of bread was brown/toasted, but the inner layer wasn't, and it was soggy. A shame, because it was always very good! My son had a piece of plastic in his sandwich. This was resolved promptly, and we received a new one. When I asked if I wanted a discount, the sandwich was politely removed from the bill.

Amazing burger. Very big. Friendly staff

Good food, friendly service and a great atmosphere.

Chicken thigh sandwich with stir-fried vegetables for €12. A generous portion and incredibly delicious!

Always a place to relax with a view. Very decent food. Great service. Personnel is very friendly and efficient

Very friendly staff, what they do is incredible even when the restaurant is full. Very fast and friendly. And also very delicious food. Top👍👍

Super cozy, delicious lunch top

De Kater is a well-known name in Enschede, and rightly so. Here you can always enjoy a drink or a meal on the terrace or inside.

Bad service!!! It's such a shame we have to give one star, otherwise it would have been zero. You're treated like a dog. And the food is inedible; I wouldn't even give it to my pet, it's awful. And not to mention the shift leader, what a horrible person she is, antisocial and impossible to talk to, only wanting to be right. Never again, yuck!

The service and the quality of the food and drinks have truly declined. It's a shame I had to give them at least one star, because if it were up to me, they wouldn't even deserve that one. They promise compensation that they can't deliver, only to get a rude mouth from the shift leader. In short, what it once was is clearly not what it used to be. This experience happened yesterday. I'll never come back here.

Wat is hier de service en de kwaliteit van eten en drinken afgenomen zeg. Het is dat ik 1 ster minimaal moest geven want als het aan mij ligt zijn ze die ene ster nog niet eens waard. Zeggen dingen toe ter compensatie die ze vervolgens niet waar kunnen maken, waarnaar je vervolgens een grote bek krijgt van de shift leader. Kortom wat het ooit was is het nu duidelijk niet meer.

Dry terrace, had to ask for new drinks several times… Then a waiter came to the table to tell him that he was not paid enough to work hard and kept asking for new drinks. Paid, got up and walked to the neighbor who was polite and came to you to take your drink order.

Cozy terrace on the old market in Enschede

Wat een teleurstelling. Ken De Kater al jaren maar 26-06 iets belachelijks meegemaakt. Onbeschofte serveerster, bleek de bedrijfsleidster te zijn. Kennelijk zat ik op het niet al te drukke terras haar in de weg. Te lang en lastig hier kort te verwoorden. Maar ze liep tamelijk lomp gewoon tussen ons door. Tussen tafeltje en stoel. Duwde gewoon onze benen aan de kant. En even later deed ze teruglopend precies hetzelfde nog een keer. Kennelijk was dit de manier om ons, domme gasten, duidelijk te maken dat wij eigenlijk alleen maar lastig zijn. We kwamen alle vijf net vh werk af en iedereen was stomverbaasd wat zij deed. Na netjes aangesproken te zijn op haar handelen, lag het allemaal aan mij. Ik had maar moeten weten dat ik in het pad zat. Pad? Welke pad? En waarom zeg je dat niet gewoon even dan was ik aan de kant gegaan. Er viel niet mee te praten. Ongeloofelijk arrogant en zo niet netjes en gastvrij. Hoe kun je je gasten zo behandelen.

Music is already so loud at seven o'clock that you have to scream. The food only arrives a good hour after ordering and is also nothing to write home about. Unfortunately, the service also could not manage a smile.

What a disappointment. I've known De Kater for years but on 26-06 I experienced something ridiculous. Rude waitress, turned out to be the manager. Apparently I was in her way on the not too busy terrace. Too long and difficult to describe briefly here. But she walked rather clumsily between us by pushing our legs aside. And a little later she did exactly the same thing again on her way back. Apparently this was the way to make it clear to us, stupid guests, that we are actually just a nuisance. All five of us had just come from work and everyone was astonished by what she did. After being politely addressed about her actions, it was all my fault. I should have known that I was in the path. Path? Which path? And why don't you just say that then I would have moved aside. It was impossible to talk to her. Incredibly arrogant and so not polite and hospitable. How can you treat your guests like that.

Soups are great and tasty. Hamburgers are a big minus, one huge dry bun, no sauces in sight.

Great food, only the service was busier with her friends than with the customers! With 4 people you get the same portion of fries and raw vegetables as if you go with 2 people. (So, something to keep in mind!)

Delicious food, fast service and very reasonable prices. Definitely recommended

Had a nice meal on the terrace in the sun. Excellent service and toilets were nice and clean!

Nice place but the toilets are downright disgusting When you say something about it you are told that a cleaning lady is too expensive but that the toilets are cleaned every morning. And that when thousands of people go to the toilets there at an event. Never again for us.

We were able to sit outside on Thursday evening with a group, it was quite busy, but we asked if we could move inside later. This was no problem at all. The service was great! I did not try the food (read dinner) but what came out of the kitchen looked good, nice portions. The bittergarnituur that we had ourselves was just good.

wanted to have a nice drink on the terrace but had to wait a long time before we were helped. eventually NO HELP. someone was walking across the terrace to help other people but we were skipped, no idea why. moved to a terrace and voila, we were helped within 7 seconds! bad service with the hangover!!! don't go there!

Sat down at a table. An older man came to clear the table and said nothing. I, on the other hand, Good afternoon, after all, that's what you can say when guests come. Ordered ladies and pork tenderloin satay. Was a piece undercooked. Just raw. Called the service and it was handled neatly. Then fine Nice red wine

If it were possible, I would also add photos here, unfortunately it is not possible. After ordering, they brought dirty buckwheat to the table, I had it changed, but we still got dirty glasses again. It's disgusting, and the waitress is young, conceited and unpleasant. If it were possible I would add photos here, unfortunately it is not possible.

Nice party, great food and location Do you have a diet? go somewhere else

The food was delicious, but it was too full and you sit very close to others.

We waren vroeg op de zondag, na een flinke wandeling. Lunch en koffie op het terras waren goed. Personeel was vriendelijk

What if you are treated like a dog by the staff? You say the fish and chips are dry and according to them it is completely normal. People, forewarned counts for 10. Compensation of a drink or an apology is not yet appropriate here. In short, that's not what it's about. But as staff to say, that's your problem and walking away says more than enough 🙄 From now on we will eat where you are treated as a guest/customer. In any case, once and never again at the Kater. You may even be left with a hangover!!

Wat als je als hond wordt behandeld door het personeel Je geeft aan de fish en chips is droog en het is volgens hun heel normaal. Mensen een gewaarschuwd mens telt voor 10. Een compensatie van een drankje of een excuus is hier nog niet op zijn plaats. Kortom zeer onvriendelijk personeel.

I don't know who makes those burgers in the kitchen on Sundays, but wow, they are delicious

Daghap had run out, but the alternative was fine. Just in time for a visit to the cinema across the street from the market. Tasty and well priced!

A "heaven on earth" sandwich is extremely tasty Tender, well-seasoned roast beef and a very good tuna salad on the other half

A lot for little. Both food, service and atmosphere.....TOP.

The (Drink) Hangover. The square is always pleasant, including the 🐈‍⬛ located on the old market. So location is great. Sunshine...bring on lunch. After waiting 25 minutes...our lunch came. My brie baguette...plenty. Compared to other locations on the same square...just sufficient. Little flair or extra attention. Our other Italian bun sandwich with pulled pork🐷a mockery. The bulb was old and falling apart...you had to look for meat. Wasn't enough at all for such a large sandwich. 😳 and that for € 12,-. When the waitress came to pay she asked if everything was okay, when we told her why we hadn't finished the sandwich, she laughed faintly and said; "I'll pass it on." That's it. They definitely thought they were tourists...no locals. There are certainly much better lunch options on the square. No more 🐈‍⬛ for us.

We had a good time. The location is superb right in the heart of the oudemarkt in Enschede. The garlic and cheese bread is delicious and a must try. Great for drinks with friends or a family outing.

Delicious food except for the pepper sauce. Not terribly expensive.

We will definitely go there again.

Coming here since about 10 years or something

It's always wonderful to drink a good draft Grolsch beer on the terrace.

Sit comfortably and enjoy a delicious meal

Cozy restaurant for young and old, on the Oude Markt in Enschede. My favorite lunch men's: Hangover ball and the tok tok in/out of the wok😋👌

The pornstar Martini was delicious, the fries weren't really to my liking but I think that's a personal taste. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Just relax and have a drink or something to eat

Normally I am always satisfied with the Tomcat. But this time I am very disappointed... after eating a salad with them I became extremely ill. Now this can of course happen, so I sent an email so that they were aware of this and could therefore check their product. Didn't get a response to this so I called later. They all said strange things about how they had emailed and that maybe it wasn't their food and that there was nothing they could do about it. Of course it was just a bluff, because they did nothing about it and just thought we have to get rid of this customer. Very disappointing because normally I would like to come…. Service 0!!!!

Delicious food, friendly staff, just great. The food was also ready very quickly

Great opportunity on the old market. Had a delicious lunch here. Friendly staff.

Top staff and good atmosphere & service

Had a delicious meal with the children. They also have child-friendly menus and a good selection.

Very bad service here. Sit down on Friday afternoon. It is very quiet but the 4 of the staff are chatting behind the bar. Mom waits 10 minutes and walks away angry, ruining the evening. As often happens here

Come here regularly, cozy and great sandwiches

Cozy, neat, smooth service, delicious lunch.

The atmosphere was really good but the stuff was unfriendly and unpatient.We waited almost 15 min for the english menus. We ordered beef crocquetes and what came to us was row meet. I’m not going there for a second time.

Went there on Saturday after Christmas for dinner, around 5:30 PM. Downstairs was very full, we had to go upstairs and it was still quiet there. It was also full there around 6 p.m. The lady who served us was very busy but kept a close eye on everything. Food took a while, but my dish was delicious, a nice, tender piece of meat, my wife had fish that had been fried too long. That was a shame. Rest of our party also had good food. The stairs to the top floor were very steep and when we left, the parents of our friends who were also with us fell from the last steps, as they were almost invisible. I had trouble seeing it all properly. That was the only negative point and certainly an improvement point. Fortunately, the injury was not very serious, but grandpa still has a lot of problems with his ribs.

I've never seen such bad staff, they don't even treat you well. As a guest, you ask if the music can be turned down a bit. I get a response of “no, I won't” and I give them all stupid reasons to which I respond with “go. you treat me like this as a guest” the gentleman simply responds with “yes” I just find this absurd

Hier geregeld binnen lunch gehad maar ook op het terras gezeten. Lunch gerechten smaken goed. Kwaliteit bediening is wisselend maar doorgaans goed.

Nice environment with plenty of spaces to drink and eat in the central of Enschede, Netherlands. Drinks are very popular and affordable with huge collections. Food is also delicious. The restaurant has mind blowing environment and the staffs are very friendly to serve the guests.

Had a nice time with a group. All food served on time and together.

Had lunch here for the 2nd time. It says enough that we visited them again. Delicious lunch dishes and friendly staff!

Whether you just want to stop by for a drink, enjoy some snacks or have a hearty meal - this is the place for you! The menu offers something to suit every taste, from small bites to full meals. Particularly noteworthy is the cozy atmosphere that invites you to linger. The relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff make your stay even more pleasant. Whether you come alone, with friends or family – you immediately feel welcome here. A perfect mix of delicious food, great drinks and a relaxed atmosphere. Absolutely recommended if you are looking for a break from everyday life!

Nice, cozy and delicious for small and large bites.

Very friendly staff and good food.

Daghap maar weer eens genomen. Komen hier al 30+ jaren regelmatig. Daghap was ooit echt prima maar is tegenwoordig echt magertjes. Advies: niet nemen. Zonde van je geld. Van de kaart is nog wel redelijk alhoewel de kwaliteit/smaak langzamerhand toch minder wordt (of andere horecazaken worden steeds beter)

The hangover is really fun and super tasty! The atmosphere is very good, if you make a reservation there will be a nice table ready for you and the service is very good. It's always fun and the food is always super good. The menu is diverse and something for everyone.

Excellent and very nice cafe on the old market in Enschede. Food is delicious and prepared with attention by good chefs. Serve quickly by friendly and young employees. Very nice on the terrace in good weather. Or indoors if the weather is bad. Recommended for young and old and not expensive. Parking in Enschede can become expensive. Pay attention to this if you come by car. Parking garages outside are often more expensive than inside them. Public transport is well organized and can therefore be done well. The Hangover......just do it.

Very nice waitresses, friendly and fast service. Our snack was freshly prepared. Unfortunately, not all cold drinks (e.g. water) are on the menu. Still five stars.

We only had a drink, a Grolsch vase for €3.70. Nice atmosphere and good music

A great atmosphere and nice and open-minded staff. After you realized that we were from Germany, we immediately received a German menu. We didn't have to wait long for our order either. Super tasty and also sufficient. Always my pleasure.

Sat for 15 minutes and didn't help or look at her, then walked away and told her she wasn't doing anything, probably not doing anything. I still have guests, it doesn't matter.

Was great to come as a student over twenty years ago, and it's still excellent now.

Food delicious, very large portions. The service itself was nice, but when we paid we had the feeling that the total of the bill was not correct. We then called the waitress again and asked for the receipt. It seemed like the waitress knew right away because she put €7 on our table and said she had mixed up our table with one that had a higher bill. What a shame! We left feeling stupid.

Great café, great ambience and right in the city center. When I'm in Enschede, I always visit De Kater.

Your food is good you don't have it before your drinks

Good food and atmosphere shizzle

Lovely terrace, friendly service.

Delicious mocktail and service. Nuts are free but you have to ask for them.

Enjoyed a delicious coffee with a ham sandwich. Waitress was nice and atmosphere was fine. I have enjoyed coming to De Kater for years.

The staff was really very attentive and very friendly. The food was also good. You didn't have to wait long either. Everything fit.
