A nostalgic experience, just as I remember it from my childhood. A bit more modern, but still the same feeling as back then. The playground is a bit smaller, but still provides the same experience. The food was amazing, and for lunch, no restaurant can match it. The atmosphere was good, and so was the service. But above all, the food and the desserts were simply delicious. Highly recommended as a lunch or dining spot. Also a lovely stopover while cycling or walking.

We enjoyed a delicious 4-course high tea between 1 and 4 pm. It was truly relaxing, enjoying the delicious food in peace. We'll definitely be back this summer. We'll be bringing the dog too, because there's a 3km trail. This was our second visit, and this time we brought the dog. So, first we went for a walk in the woods. That was also beautiful. We enjoyed high tea on the terrace again. It was delicious again, and the service was top-notch. I highly recommend it.

This was a stop we chose for lunch after visiting the Vincent Van Gogh museum. It’s about 6 min drive away. We had no booking but they were able to accommodate us outside. The staff were really attentive and friendly. Between us we had mussels, lobster soup, schnitzel, ribeye steak and ribs. The portions were very generous (something we’ve noticed across the Netherlands). More importantly it tasted delicious. The lobster soup was divine. As was the steak. Their desserts mainly consisted of ice cream but there was lemon cheesecake, brownie and apple pie. Again a culinary taste sensation. As non Dutch speaking travellers we had little difficulty communicating with staff and they were all super friendly. I’d 100% recommend this restaurant if you’re close by looking for a spot to eat. Oh they also have a small playground which kept our 2 entertained whilst we waited.

De Moerse Bossen, located on the edge of Zundert near the monastery and the brewery, offers an atmospheric, thatched facility with ample parking space for visitors. Upon arrival, the large, safe playground is particularly striking, where children can play to their heart's content while parents explore the area or take a seat on the spacious terrace. On a sunny day, the terrace can fill up, but there is usually still plenty of seating inside. The interior is warm and cozy, with attention to natural materials and a clear layout that ensures peace, even when it is busy. The menu is surprisingly extensive. A must is the 'twaaluurtje' with smoked salmon, lobster soup, a shrimp croquette and a fried egg - a varied composition that appeals to fish lovers. In addition, the menu offers a wide selection of cold and hot dishes, suitable for any time of day. The staff seems attentive and knows how to manage the crowds well, without the service suffering. All in all, De Moerse Bossen is a pleasant destination for both families and groups of friends who want to spend an afternoon or evening in a green, relaxed atmosphere.

The hot food from the buffet was not very hot but that was probably because it was prepared at the same time as the cold section. So if you started with the cold section first and then with the hot section, it had already cooled down a lot and was not replenished in time which was a shame. Dessert was very good

The food itself is ok, but very "scarce" with the accompanying fries, salad and bread, 1 really small bowl of salad for 4 people, a bowl that you could at least expect at least per person, also 1 bowl of fries for 4 people that is really far too little, the bread accompanying the salad was not served, with the chosen main course actually a large bare plate with practically only the ordered piece of meat/fish and a few small shreds of cooked vegetables, the monthly dessert menu that was very nicely announced turned out to be far too small a "snack", while we are really not big eaters, we ordered coffee/tea last, which is always nice if it comes with a cookie or chocolate or something like that, but that is also not possible at the moment, which is a shame, we have been here more than once in recent years, but this last time was really disappointing due to all the frugality/frugality..

When I pointed this out to the waiter, they apologized and the dish was immediately taken back to the kitchen. Within 2 minutes a new, perfect waffle was made with apologies again. To make a mistake is human and if it is resolved this way, perfect. Great solution! We'll be back soon.
