De Oude Tol in Wijk 05 Archipelbuurt

Nice little restaurant with friendly service. Opposite the Peace Palace. Beautiful wooded area around the restaurant. The only downside is the heavy traffic.

Had a great sandwich and a drink. People are very friendly and helpful. Will definitely return

De Oude Tol is a fantastic place to receive a warm welcome in an honest, relaxed atmosphere. The combination of European and South African dishes (and fine wines) allows for both everyday and unusual choices. The service is friendly and attentive, but never intrusive. The atmosphere is cozy, welcoming, and international. It's a truly enjoyable stop in a unique location. The owner's impeccable fire-red Renault 4 is a beautiful mascot: character and purity combined with unadorned pride of ownership guarantee a pleasant visit time and time again, one you'll remember fondly. A place you'll love to be and return to!

Delicious chicken salad! Thank you from Ukrainian ladies :)

Everything is okay, nice place, although at an intersection, friendly service and the snacks are quite good.

Eating a croquette sandwich on the terrace

Friendly English speaking service. It was busy so it took a while for the sandwiches to arrive. Our drinks arrived quickly :-)

Great food & service & not to forget the excellent (South African) Piekenierskloof Wines they are now selling. The Grenache Blanc is probably the best white wine I have had !

We had a great time on Sunday. The food and service was great and super friendly people from South Africa.

Fantastic experience, with food that matches. The staff were incredibly friendly and the seating areas catered for any weather condition. My wife and I will definitely be back!

Good menu. Service also good. Cozy terrace

What a wonderful South African sphere with delicious food. A home made chilli sauce was the highlight for me. Looking forward to go there again soon.

Nice place to have a snack. We ordered bitterballen and shrimp tempura (a lot of tempura and little shrimp) and the famous chicken sandwich. Pretty good but not generous. I asked if the potatoes were homemade, he said yes but they were frozen. The table was dirty when we arrived and I had to ask them to clean it. The cleaning was not very good but the two young people who tend the terrace are very friendly. The homemade lemonade is very expensive for what it is. Generally good.

Amazing little home away from home feeling!

Small, charming café directly opposite the International Court of Justice. We had a fluffy chocolate bun and a really good coffee – both highly recommended. Friendly service and relaxed atmosphere.

Nice location, good service and delicious carrot cake!

Nice place to have a coffee or another drink nearby

Nice service, vegetarian options and a few authentic South African dishes. Great place for lunch or just a coffee.

Service top. Food; really home made, delicious. It is cosy, close to the beach of Scheveningen by tram or a short walk. Next to the Scheveningse Bosjes, a park for a stroll. We had a nice lunch and excellent late night dinner.

Pleasant family business. Fresh products. Heated seats outside. Always a smile, tasty soups and delicious chicken sandwiches. Ideal pit stop on the way to the city or the beach!! Oh yes: clean toilets. We'll be back.

Lovely place, especially for a sunny day. Very tasty house special South-African broodjes, excellent coffee. Nice terrace outside with a view.

Very nice experience, delicious sandwich, good price, nice service

My uncle and aunt's restaurant. South African chicken mayo sandwich and a nice spicy sauce made by my uncle and my favorite soft drink from South Africa, sparletta cream soda.

Fabulous chicken mayo toastie with homemade chilli sauce. Excellent service and great atmosphere here. I can imagine it’ll be great outside in the summer.

Delicious coffee and tostis at a great location facing the Peace Palace.

Feels like home❤️ very friendly place and the service is very pleasant and not intrusive. Nice music and delicious food

Super place! Cozy, nice&fast service and delicious food!

Heerlijke cappuccino, prima zonnig terras. Met een vriendelijke staf, waarvan het lijkt dat als binnenkomt je zal jaren kent. Aanrader!!!

Loved this place! Not only they have amazing coffee, but the owners are super kind and warm. We felt at home. The food 10 points! I even forgot the bottle warmer for my baby and the owner helped me without hesitation for a quick solution. We will definitely come back next time we visit The Hague!

Small, but atmospheric lunch venue with a wide choice. Especially recommended when the weather is good. terrace.

Very nice and there was a lot of fun with a large group of children who wanted something warm to drink. Worth repeating and then to eat something tasty!

I sought refuge at De Oude Tol when a heavy rain started to fall. What a lovely surprise this café proved to be! Not only did the delightful coffee and a delicious meal warm me up, but the owners took time to have a lovely conversation with me while I waited for the weather to change as well. Huge recommendation!

I discovered this establishment through my colleagues, and since then, I have been regularly enjoying it. Today, I had a Boerewors roll, and it was a delightful taste experience. The food is great, the products are fresh, and the staff is very friendly and smiling. I highly recommend it.

Tasty meal and friendly service from the owners. The atmosphere is also cozy. Top.

Lovely space even in winter. Staff and owners are also extremely friendly and the food is brilliant.

Super friendly and cozy environment. Coffee was amazing. The service is top, and really friendly staff. Highly recommend it for group catch ups or if you want a nice spot to rest and refresh with some coffee.

Lovely staff, cozy interior, and perfect for a morning coffee in the sunshine. Grateful for this cute place with perfect view of the ICJ.

Beautiful staff, place and food

It was delicious! I was walking around and decided to sit here to have brunch with a nice view of the Peace Palace and definitely do not regret it !

Really lovely cafe, great coffee as well as above and beyond service. I accidentaly dropped a just-purchased croissant on the floor and the owners kindly replaced it at no cost - so, great customer service as well as great food and atmosphere.

Nice placement, very good food and affordable prices. The menu is available in an English version. The staff is also very nice and friendly.

Thank you very much!!! delicious!!! 😋😋😋

Very friendly staff and great location. The weather was nice enough to sit outside in their charming patio space. I had brunch with a friend and the menu had a good range of choices. I had the avocado toast with an egg and it was very tasty! I would go there again.

What an improvement!!! Thank God this was taken over and it has really been renovated. Repetition? Oh hell yeah

Lovely service, big portions, and good price!

Our go-to place for a tasty breakfast or lunch for a good price with a relaxed atmosphere. Also a nice place for a coffee and cake. I often find myself craving the red cappuccino, if you’re not a coffee drinker like myself I would definitely recommend (or if you do drink coffee this is also still worth a try) 😄 With plenty of yummy choices on the menu I would def recommend this place

Best stopover in The Hague - friendly family business - owner, takes time for his guests - gave us valuable tips for visiting The Hague - the food includes rustic South African cuisine - would be happy to come again at any time. Recommendation: Order a Blue Gin Tonic, which was exceptionally mild and delicious.

Had a nice meal with my son, it was super tasty!

Ordered a burger and it was delicious. Great location and staff as well.

We loved this quaint little cafe, our server was wonderful, food was good, and wine was great. If I lived here I would visit this place at least twice a week. I believe the owner helped out and he was just friendly as his wait staff.

I like coming here...lovely terrace, quiet despite the heavy traffic, nice view of the Peace Palace, very friendly owners, delicious red cappuccino. It's just fantastic here!

Delicious food and friendly service. 😃

Nice place with good sandwiches!

Great business, very nice service

A great hidden gem! Would recommend this place for lunch, drinks and sundowners!

Loved it. Really pleasant staff, tasty food, lovely vibe. Would recommend.

I came here with a friend who wanted to try the place after knowing that a new management took over. The owner who is South African was friendly and recommended the Biltong Caprese Salad which was not in the menu. It was delicious. My friend who is vegetarian enjoyed her Humus Sandwich. We sat outside and enjoyed not just looking at the Peace Palace, but our coffee and the food. The prices and portions are good. And if you go inside to pay you will be able to read the poster explaining the history and why it is called De Oude Tol. I will be returning alone or with friends.

The most beautiful location, the best chicken mayo toasti & great coffee! Definitely give the Rooibos Cuppacino a try!

Great atmosphere, good food, well priced

Very nice. Good place for a snack or a beer in between. Very nice staff.

Nice little lunch spot. Lots of nice dishes and great service. Can’t wait to come back

A great place to sunbathe when the weather is nice! Very top waiters!

Good looking service and authentic ambient.

A great spot! Owners who deeply care about their customers, food & service. I highly recommend this cafe when in The Hague.

Delicious food! From the chicken mayo sandwich, tomato soup to the bitterballen, everything we ate was top notch. We really enjoyed that homemade chili sauce that came with that chicken mayo, and would recommend this to everyone. Nice patio that fills up quick for lunch, so come ready with an open mind and empty stomach. It’s worth sharing items on the menu with friends. Very friendly team. The owners just opened shop two months ago; I wish them the very best.

Such a gem! Beautiful place, super friendly owners 🇿🇦 who make you feel right at home. Had the chicken mayo tosti & red cappuccino, would highly recommend 🌸

Enjoyed sitting on the terrace. Nice and friendly staff. Surprising hotspot in The Hague

Really good chicken mayo tosti & the coffee is amazing. This will definitely become one of my favourite spots especially if it is nice and sunny. Amazing view of the Peace Palace as well.

What a wonderful place to sit!! Ate the chicken mayo sandwich. Absolutely recommended. I will definitely come back here! Joep

Very nice teras with lots of sun and good service. Had a very nice lunch and a couple of drinks. Owners are very friendly and provided a great experience overall.

Very nice place with tasty meals! Also, there is a very nice view for the Peace Palace! We enjoyed ❤️

Lovely spots in the sun. Perfect location, with a beautiful view of the Peace Palace. New owner, nice people! Nice meal.

New owners! Top spot. Lovely terrace and coffee. We'll be back

Cozy tent with lots of sun, recommended avosmash and rooibos cappuccino

Loving the sunshine and cozy vibe. Thanks De Oude Tol team.

I had an Awesome cocktail on the terace , the new owners revitalised this fixture nearby the Peace Palace. Absolutely coming back!

Great food options, something for everybody. Really good service and nice atmosphere looking directly onto the Peace Palace, good seating options indoors and outdoors. I’ve tried the burger and the garlic prawns - both lovely!

My favourite place in Den Haag! Great atmosphere and delicious food! Chefs kiss!

Great place to be, the sun shines on the terrace the whole day. Also loved the wide variety of food and snacks that they offer. Good for breakfast, lunch or an early dinner.

Enjoy a nice glass of wine on the terrace with a wide choice of snacks (hamburger is recommended!)

A great place to sit in the sun. Also great food and coffee !

Location: Perfect Staff: Excellent Food: Delicious I really enjoyed the times I’ve been there, I’m excited to see when summer is in full swing!

Delicious breakfast in the sun of De Oude Tol. Service was fast and staff incredibly friendly. I chose an Avocado Smash Sandwich and I definitely recommend it.

Unfortunately just too late for a visit, they have stopped. We are now waiting for a successor. Hopefully under the same name.

Tomato soup with slices of baguette. Good taste and well liked. Nice location!

Nice man and delicious lentil soup

Friendly owner who knows how to pour a beer. Full glass, 1 finger of foam. Add some nuts. It was warm on the terrace. Free melon with ham. Glass of wine well filled. I will definitely come back here. An oasis in hectic The Hague.

I actually wanted to thank this location via the Medisch Toilletpas site, but that is not possible because I cannot find an email address, so I do it this way: I needed to change my incontinence pads, but my Medical Toilet Pass was at the bottom of my bag, so I thought showing my incontinence pads would be enough. At first that didn't seem to be the case and I was told I had to pay. I said irritated that I have clearly shown that I am incontinent. Then the employee said I could still go. I would like to thank this employee. Unfortunately, there is still a lot of misunderstanding for people with toilet-related conditions. That's why I really like the fact that this employee still let me go to the toilet.

Small menu, slow service, I think they still have to grow into it, I wish them good luck and hope they make it because the intention is good 👍👍

Today we sat here in the sun on the terrace. Nice tent with a top location. Hot chocolate is highly recommended!

Delicious food and great location with a view of the Peace Palace.

Vriendelijke bediening, leuk punt tegenover het Vredespaleis en direct bij het oude tolhuis, begin Scheveningse weg.

Heerlijke broodjes en super aardig personeel. Aanrader!

Very friendly owner, great place and it’s very comfortable (next to the forest)! You can choose to sit in the sun, but also enough shade. Go have a look if you are visiting this area!

Nieuwe eigenaar heeft de hele zaak een broodnodige facelift gegeven. Ziet er nu modern en fris uit. Mooi en gezellig terras met uitzicht op Vrederpaleis. Heerlijk toeven. Wel zouden ze op hete dagen een of twee meer parasols kunnen gebruiken. Lekkere luxe broodjes (broodje humus is aanrader) en uitstekende cappuccino. Vriendelijke bediening. Zeker voor herhaling vatbaar!

A cosy place with good food and a great customer service, highly recommended if you're after a place to grab a bite on your trip around Den Haag.

Een gezellig plekje met een vriendelijke man in de bediening. Bij het vertrek kregen we zelfs nog een gratis koekje. Leuke ervaring en leuke plek

Leuk tentje met gezellig terras, uitzicht op het Vredespaleis. Heerlijke broodjes

De eerste keer was het gelijk super vriendelijk en warm. Lekkere koffie ook die daardoor nog beter smaakte. Vandaag nog een keer gegaan, bleek dat ze om 11uur open gingen. Maar de eigenaar herkende mij nog en voor ik het wist stond er al een heerlijke kop koffie klaar. Waarna hij begon met openen en inrichten van de dag. Wat lief en vriendelijk!

Een hele fijne plek om in mooie ambiance iets te gebruiken
