Grand Café de Waegh in Dokkum

We had a delicious and enjoyable meal with a friendly, engaged crew! Beautiful, well-maintained restaurant.

The food was delicious. The tournedos is definitely recommended.

As always, delicious food and friendly staff!

May 17, 2025 I had a delicious cup of coffee here today with my girlfriend. Friendly staff. You get served quickly.

Had a great lunch, pleasant location. Good prices. The staff is also friendly.

The food was delicious, beautifully presented. Very friendly service and a pleasant atmosphere.

The four of us and our puppy ate here. On our first day in Friesland, we were doing some shopping nearby and suddenly stumbled upon a small town. Walking the dog and grabbing a bite to eat, we ended up at Café de Waegh. Despite the heavy rain, we sat outside, which was perfectly manageable. The four of us went for lunch; they had a nice menu with lots of delicious options. All four of us had a latte or cappuccino, two meatball sandwiches, a tuna melt, and warm goat cheese on bread. The only disappointment was the tuna melt, not because of the taste, but because, unlike the other dishes, it had less filling. The food was delicious and for a great price of €16.20 per person.

We had a wonderful meal at this lovely spot in Dokkum, with friendly service and delicious local beers. All in all, a very successful evening!

My husband and I had a delicious meal here, with a main course and dessert. A slow-cooked beef steak, and I had a rosefish. The dessert was also delicious :)

Nice little cafe restaurant with good food, nicely decorated and good service!

A regular spot, cozy atmosphere, and friendly service. Just popping in is no punishment.

Super delicious food! Great atmosphere and good service!

We just came here for a beer, and it turned out great. It was a Friday night and there was live music (accordion, singer, and singer). We thought it was old-fashioned, but very enjoyable. Mind you, we're from the Rotterdam area, and that's completely out of the question here. A bit of a shame. The atmosphere was great and it was fun. We were getting late, and they politely asked if we wanted one last round. Great atmosphere and location. We had a great time.

Really neat old cafe with a ton of history. Cool location and great service

Quite OK. Unfortunately, a bit noisy. Staff very friendly.

Delicious and peaceful food and drinks. Great place!

I had a wonderful meal here on Sunday. I had the spare ribs with a delicious topping of sweet and sour vegetables. When I wanted to eat, I saw that there was a plastic cap from a squirt bottle among the food. I said to the friendly waitress, "Your chef is very enthusiastic and squeezed the bottle too hard and is now missing its cap." She took it away and apologized. A little later she came back. She had discussed it with her manager and I got a free dessert. What top service, the location, the food and the service are top notch and the dessert was of course extra delicious.

We had a delicious meal here at De Waegh in Dokkum. Friendly service and a cozy location. Excellent!

Great food and service, right in the heart of Dokkum!

A cozy restaurant in the center with delicious food

Nice little restaurant right in the center of Dokkum, good menu and delicious food at reasonable prices.

We ate here today. The staff wasn't friendly and didn't warn us that the plates were hot, which resulted in a child getting burned. When we pointed this out, we didn't receive a proper or sympathetic response. The food was also mediocre. It's a shame, because the location is beautiful and the restaurant has potential.

Nice atmospheric restaurant with a very good kitchen and service.

Verrassend lekker gegeten in een mooi oud pand te Dokkum. Erg vriendelijke bediening. Mooi opgemaakte borden. Al met al een aanrader in Dokkum

Met vrienden heerlijk en gezellig gedineerd in dit mooie karakteristieke gebouw. Twee gangen diner met als hoofdgerecht Chef's Special: Dorade vis. Smaakte bijzonder goed. Bediening zeer vriendelijk en correct.

The food was delicious, beautifully presented, and the ingredients were fresh. The staff was friendly and attentive. A wonderful experience.

We sat outside on the terrace, at the front. There were 2 other apparently well-known ladies of one of the service ladies. There was almost only attention for the well-known ladies than there was for us, very unfortunate because we did not feel welcome. The food and cappuccino were delicious!

Delicious food and nice friendly and fast service despite the crowds.

Leuke plek om te borrelen. Mooie drankenkaart. Niet alle lokale bieren waren op voorraad. Bedeining was aardig, maar niet erg vlot. Mooie locatie.

Service was quick and good, even though the place was busy. We had beer and bitter ballon, the beer was served immediately and the food shortly after. All good.

Excellent food and very nice staff!

We had lunch here this week which was good, we also had dinner here, super tasty and hospitable, we will definitely come back again 👍🏻

A beautiful spot to stop for lunch! Lots of good options on the menu! I got the salmon egg Benedict it was amazing! Lots of outdoor and indoor seating and friendly staff.

Delicious asparagus eaten on the terrace. Friendly and attentive staff!

Delicious food. Very hospitable.

Nice restaurant to eat, very friendly staff. To end our weekend in Dokkum. We had a delicious meal and drinks there. Will definitely come back here.

We were satisfied. Easy to make reservations and friendly, quick service. Nice atmosphere. The food was quite expensive in relation to the portion size and taste.

Leuk Restaurant, niet te volgepropt met tafeltjes dus prima armslag & privacy. Kaart was erg leuk; zéker de items ‘van de dag’…! Personeel erg behulpzaam, vriendelijk en snel en niet zoals je weleens elders ziet dat je eerst 3 kwartier achterstevoren moet gaan zitten om iets te bestellen. Al met al een leuke belevenis!

We were there for coffee. We sat outside and felt very comfortable. The service staff were very nice.

Delicious food. Will definitely come again.

Grand Café De Waegh is highly recommended! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with a beautiful historic ambiance. The staff are friendly and attentive, and make you feel immediately welcome.

Reserved February 14 for high tea sweet and savory Beautiful building from the outside and inside Atmosphere friendly service good food was delicious

We tried both vegan dishes (vegan satay and vegan curry) and they were delicious! Noticeably made by a chef who knew what vegan food entails, with subtle flavors and beautifully presented. The service was smooth, friendly and attentive, and answered all our questions through the chef. Highly recommended for vegans and those who want to become vegan.

Had a bad experience. The staff was not friendly. We were received by an employee who stood with a mouth full of food. Tried several times to call the waiter, but without success. Only after 20 minutes did someone from the service come by to pick up the lunch menu. At that point we indicated that we had already been waiting 20 minutes. Unfortunately we were then told that we could no longer order. We left without eating. A very unpleasant and disappointing experience.

Ate here for lunch with 4 adults, it was great! Everything was in tip top condition, delicious food, nice atmosphere, everything clean and good service.

Great location in the middle of Dokkum! Super nice service, delicious food and Leffe blonde! What more could you want!

Delicious food, very customer friendly and cozy atmosphere.

Super nice atmosphere and delicious cappuccino. We were in a bit of a hurry, so we asked if we could eat within 45 minutes, and that was no problem. My short rib had a lot of fat, but after explaining that this is not visible from the outside, they offered to make a new short rib, or that I could go for a tournedo. Went for the latter option and it was delicious, and so was my wife's stew. We were very happy with the service and the delicious food, definitely recommended!

Hier met kennissen een ‘Waegh elk uurtje’ besteld en dat smaakte uitstekend. Keuze uit heerlijke mosterdsoep of tomatensoep, een witte dikgesneden boterham met kroket en een dikke bruine boterham met carpaccio met zongedroogde tomaatjes. Heerlijk allemaal en geserveerd door vriendelijke dames. Buiten was het koud, binnen warm en gezellig in dit kleine, maar prachtige stadje.

Kids pizzas are tiny and clearly not freshly made. They are in fact not actual pizzas. Quite expensive for what you get. The poke bowl has smoked salmon! It should be fresh, salmon. That’s the whole point. It wasn’t bad, but they clearly have the basics wrong. The carpaccio was 90% salad and 10% meat that was not of high quality. The hot chocolate with whipped cream collapsed into what looked like milk before it was served - it’s not real whipped cream. Beautiful building, good interior design, but completely forgettable.

Always great food and nice people. Setting is also great.

Delicious lunch, nice atmosphere and friendly people.

Delicious food in honor of my birthday 🥳

Had dinner here with friends tonight, the food was super tasty and beautifully presented! The service was super nice, this all made it a great dinner! Thank you

Nice lunch, nice people and quick service

Had a delicious meal at Grand Café de Waegh this evening. Friendly and quick help from the two ladies. We chose the spicy ribs in advance, which were very good and the meat was loose around the bone. We chose the tournedos as the main course, which was also fantastic in taste and presentation. Super cozy tent with good staff and food! Recommended 😊

I would like to review the food but unfortunately we were left sitting an hour before our drinks. We got the menu after repeated requests. Sorry, that was nothing

Last night we had a delicious meal with the children. The food was delicious, the service was great, the restaurant had a very nice atmosphere. a great experience

Good wine and surprising and top vegetarian

delicious meal. portions more than sufficient. The staff regularly came by to check if there was enough. Price was not too bad for us.

Simply great! Friendly service, very tasty food! The limoncello tiramisu was highly recommended!

The food was good, the service took a long time. Many guests sat and watched as they were helped

Fantastic black shell, amazing, delicious, special sauce, the service is perfect, people very kind, the price acceptable

Eerst een prima Fries biertje gedronken en mijn vrouw een wijntje. Goede service en erg klantvriendelijk omdat het wijntje werd omgeruild omdat die wijn niet beviel. Daarna heerlijk gegeten, een voortreffelijke shortrib en goede lasagne. Dus de volgende dag weer gegeten in De Waegh. Ook vanwege de erg gezellige bediening.

Delicious pastries. Good coffee. Friendly and helpful staff. Clean sanitary facilities. Two very nice terraces.

Gelegen in het centrum van Dokkum. Gezellig terras, vriendelijk personeel. Gevarieerd menu met lekkere lunchgerechten. Aanrader de spicy hot dog en de burger.

In het mooie Dokkum , in het oude waaggebouw, ligt Grand Café de Waegh. Wij hadden geluk een tafeltje te krijgen zonder reservatie. Het was een vernieuwde kennismaking na vele jaren. Het weze gezegd, het eten was verrukkelijk lekker. Het personeel is zeer vriendelijk en hebben oog voor de klanten. Een tppertje!

Beautiful place, located in the center of the ancient city weighbridge, with a nice atmosphere. The waitresses are very nice and we returned several evenings. Definitely recommended! They also have a children's menu.

Very good food and friendly and courteous staff. We were there again the next day for coffee and cake, which was also very tasty...

Hele lekkere vegetarische lasagne gegeten. Super lekkere verse producten. Personeel erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam.

Uitermate lekkere gerechten, gewoon dikke 5 sterren weer een keer. Tweemaal gegeten en nergens teleurgesteld geweest. Complimenten aan de kok en bediening. Goede recepturen gebruikt en op de juiste manier gekookt, gebakken en geserveerd. Tot de volgende keer.

Nice terrace, had a drink there and ate bread with spread, very tasty.

Heerlijk gegeten met fijne bediening. Tijdens ons verblijf in Dokkum hebben we hier gegeten. De kok snapt hier wat Medium-rare betekent en de kipfilet die mijn vrouw besteld had was sappig en toch gaar. Aanrader

Accueil de qualité, service au top. Plats élaborés & excellents, vin bien conseillé & très bon. Nous recommandons vivement !!

We had lunch on the terras. Very nice environment, smooth and friendly service, lots of choice on the lunch menu and great quality dishes for its price. Cheese cake is warmly recommended! Very nice spot to go to in the centre of Dokkum

We had dinner here with our staff yesterday. It was once again very successful and enjoyable. And the food was very good. The tasting was well organized. Recommended!

We had a wonderful evening at the Grand Café de Waegh. Very nice and attentive service. Food was excellent. Both the fish and the meat were excellently prepared.

The food was good and so was the service. Can be recommended.

Delicious food and good service

5 stars across the board. The four of us had lunch here and were served kindly. Excellent soup, sandwiches, burgers and espresso. Price-quality is top. In the photo: 'De Waegh every hour'.

The food was delicious, something for everyone. Beautiful combinations and good wine. Service was also very friendly.

Had a nice meal and had a coffee. Cozy terrace. Good service and quality. A beautiful building too

A very atmospheric place in an old chapel. Such a beautiful interior, friendly and customer-oriented staff. The ginger beer is simply delicious and the service is top notch with a smile on your face..

Luckily we had made a reservation! Very busy at this very good restaurant! Delicious food. Nothing to complain about. How nice the Frisians are, nothing stiff! We would like to draw extra attention to the steak tartare, this is simply a high-quality painting. Divinely delicious!

Good food, friendly and efficient staff. Breathable prices

Nice terrace, good service, tasty sandwich
