Grand café Restaurant de Mallejan in Wijk 01 Middelaar

No, this isn't it for me. I never write bad reviews, but unfortunately I do now. Food is substandard. Spontaneously got stomach cramps after eating a Carpaccio... the carpaccio was very minimal. I wasn't too happy with the 2nd course either. Starter was forgotten by another guest. We asked for 2x pork tenderloin and we got steak. We ordered water once, we literally got water from the tap. (we had assumed spa blue) no, not my case for dinner, maybe more for lunch???

Too bad they hadn't set up all the tables outside, the weather was nice and busy. We had to have a cup of coffee inside

lekker eten. Rare bediening. Jongen met krullen rond 1.75 heel onbeleefd. Ik voelde me niet echt op mijn gemak en hij nam mij niet serieus. voor de rest een goede bediening en lekker eten en beleefd. alleen die krullebol mag van mij vertrekken.

Drink with cake on the terrace, sit comfortably on the terrace.

Boxing Day 2024 had a fantastic à la carte meal with 10 people. With lovely staff and a very pleasant atmosphere! The ten of us enjoyed it, thank you!!!!!!

Remains a nice location. The food is good and the service quite fast. We come here regularly.

Got coffee to go during a school outing, delicious including brownie, great!

A good restaurant, highly recommended. Whether I have a cup of coffee, come for lunch or dinner, I always feel welcome.

Cozy atmosphere with attentive staff and good cuisine

OK restaurant. Redelijke bediening. Eten is prima klaargemaakt. Geen bijzondere kaart. De bekende restaurant gerechten; niet erg verrassend. Erg druk, dus reserveren is verstandig. Let op: als het mooi weer is en het terras open, proberen ze reserveringen binnen te plaatsen zodat het terras beschikbaar blijft.

Wij hadden een tafel gereserveerd en dan verwacht je toch binnen te kunnen zitten. Daar was geen plaats zeiden ze en moesten buiten plaats nemen. Zit je tussen de rokers, niet echt fijn terwijl er binnen genoeg plaats was. Eten viel ook tegen, een had scholfilet maar dat was erg veel paneermeel. Ik had een jägerschnitzel, tenminste had ik besteld. Kreeg een gewone schnitzel met een heel klein bakje saus. Wat opviel was dat de porties van een menu beduidend kleiner zijn als de zelfde die je van de kaart besteld.

Food is tasty, just a pity that you are sitting in someone else's smoke.

Unfortunately, I couldn't order anything plant-based at all. There was nothing on the menu that was vegan, but even when asked, there was a lot of laughter in the kitchen (a leaf of lettuce!) and no consideration was given. Unfortunately I had to go home with an empty stomach. 1 or 2 vegan options on the (more extensive) lunch menu would be great for the company.

Always something to do. You can sit at the bar, or outside terrace or inside (make a reservation, it can be busy). Table for 2, 4 or group. There are two menus. For lunch during the day until 5:00 PM and a dinner menu (more extensive) for after 5:00 PM

You can enjoy delicious food there.

Good food, good staff and correct atmosphere

It was very pleasant to sit there as always. Friendly staff and everything well organized. Spacious terrace and plenty of seating inside.

Kogelbiefstuk was niet goed bereid. Nadat deze mee terug was genomen werd de nieuwe, nu wel goed bereid, nadat de overigen hun hoofdgerecht al op hadden geleverd. Toen ik bij het afrekeneneen een opmerking hierover maakte werd dit afgedaan met '... het is druk.. '

Delicious lunch with 14 people as a stop on our 2CV tour. Service and lunch were excellent!

4-day Nijmegen fixed break spot

Wonderful, friendly staff and free parking.

it was very good and not really expensive

Super tasty food, friendly service, delicious and taken care of down to the last detail from starter to dessert.

It was delicious and fun again, we will be back

Always hospitable Very much appreciated by older people

Food was very tasty and the staff was very friendly

Waiting an hour for the food. And when it came we weren't really surprised. Dessert was decent, the rest nothing special.

A wonderful place The area is full of walkers, cyclists and holidaymakers After a nice day full of activities, you can enjoy a meal at Malle Jan But also if you don't feel like cooking Are you driving from Nijmegen after the holiday feeling... Relax on the terrace.

3 provinces tour coffee and pie

A little more expensive but very good. Nice staff, delicious food, everything top

The food was tasty, but the portions were quite small.

Nice terrace, friendly staff, clean sanitary facilities

Just sat on a terrace, it was great!

Besides enjoying my spareribs, I also had a beer on the house, after which I ended this delicious eating adventure with 2x the caramel ice cream cake (highly recommended).

Delicious food, good beer and friendly service. Price-quality is fine. Top spot!

Delicious food and friendly staff. Good service and plenty of parking nearby.

Delicious coffee, nice to sit outside after a walk. I gave the atmosphere 2 stars because your view is a gigantic parking lot... but of course the crazy guy can't do anything about that.

Always pleasant and very friendly staff

Delicious lunch!! Cozy location and friendly service. We would love to come back again

Enjoyed lunch here. Nice spacious terrace, there was plenty of room. Friendly service, we were helped neatly and quickly. And the food was on the table in no time. A ham cheese panini for the wife and a midday snack for me. Both delicious. Visited again this time for dinner. All of the above still applies and more. The food was delicious, the wife had a shrimp salad beforehand and I had a spinach soup with smoked salmon, both finger-licking good. Then enjoyed the Angus burger and it was a delicious burger. We rolled outside satisfied. Recommended! Reservations on busier days are a plus.

Cozy restaurant, not too expensive, good food

We regularly visit the Marina and have used this restaurant many times. It never fails to impress. Excellent quality food both during the day and in the evening. Friendly staff who help us poor English people with the translations - all with a smile when we try our Dutch. Cannot recommend this highly enough. Give it a try - you won’t be disappointed.

Enjoy relaxing on the cozy terrace.

Nice place for a coffee, lunch or dinner

We had something to drink there after a walk. We were received hospitably

Heerlijke broodjes carpaccio en zalm, zowel het brood als het beleg uitstekend. Hoewel zaak bomvol zat, kwam bestelling snel. Hardwerkende vriendelijke dame in de bediening.

Lunch in December. Delicious food, fast and friendly service. This is how it should be done

Was gezellig! That was delicious ! Top address 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Na een frisse wandeling heerlijk op gewarmt bij deze locatie met een warme chocomel.. zeer attente en vriendelijke bediening. (Tafel aan het raam kwam beschikbaar toen we aan kwamen en alles werd direct opgeruimd en schoon gemaakt.. Meteen maar blijven zitten voor een lunch. Heerlijke broodjes gegeten..

Wonderful place. We never actually go to the same place twice on holiday, but we have been here 3 times. Lovely cozy atmosphere in a fairly large business. Excellent food, friendly service. Absolutely recommended!

Tasty bouncer. The rest does what it has to do. No comments.

Because we live nearby, we come here regularly. Price/quality ratio is excellent and the service is always friendly.

Only had cappuccino, but it was fine. Completely decorated with whipped cream, liqueur and a delicious cookie

Had a delicious lunch in a cozy environment. Fast, correct and very friendly ladies in the service. To be repeated.

Very attractive restaurant, service was very friendly. Perhaps a little too much control, which sometimes made it seem a bit clumsy. As a starter, a tomato soup that was very bland. Not a vegetable or a meatball, not even cream or parsley leaf. The pork medallion was also not that tasty, it was very dry.

We had a delicious meal twice during our holiday near here in the park. Excellent products and pleasant service, exactly what you would expect from a Grand café. Also had a delicious meal twice in October 2023.

Nice and friendly service. Delicious hot food and cold drinks. It was busy but everything under control. Great.

We came here for a drink and cake at a quiet time. The pastry was generous and delicious with the price related to it.

Nice restaurant, tasty food, lots of choice, good and friendly service

Always friendly service and delicious food. Nothing fancy, just tasty.

Excellent, excellent cuisine, good service and the right price/quality ratio

Cozy atmosphere, good food, nice friendly service 😀😀😀😀

Food was fine. Unfortunately we were bothered by the smell of other guests. At some point they moved to another table.

I only had one coffee but it was served so deliciously that I can only give it 5 ✨️

After having a stroll around the heathers, we had lunch there. The food was good (pulled pork sandwiches and chicken wraps), the service was excellent. The girls were friendly and fast. The location is nice with free parking right in front it. We will come back again for sure.

Had a nice lunch on the terrace. Pulled pork and a 12 o'clock.

Nice terrace. Extensive menu for lunch.

Ate at Mallejan yesterday. Friendly service, with an extensive menu that also includes gluten-free dishes from starter to dessert. In short, highly recommended!

Alles uit de frietpan .. jammer .. het is een veredelde cafetaria .. toch 70 euro kwijt met z’n tweeën.. kapitein iglo schol 23,50 😔..

We actually wanted to have lunch there, but it took a very long time before the staff came to take our order, so we only had a drink. Unfortunately. Maybe we'll give it another try this week

The penultimate time my sister had a glass of wine poured over her. An apology was the only thing or a make-up would have been appropriate. With today's visit, there were some mussels with a layer of fuel oil or something like that 🤮 Apart from the fact that the dish was not calculated, a saving grace was once again not offered here. When asked, the chef stated that this can happen with mussels. However, I haven't experienced it in any restaurant yet. The appetite with my mussels was also over immediately. We have decided that we will never go there again with the whole family. Shame.

Nice lunch on a pleasant terrace.

We had a delicious lunch, our food and drinks were served quickly. There is a beautiful terrace to enjoy a snack and a drink. Had to wait a long time to pay. Finally walked in to pay. Staff had a noisy discussion among themselves about who was ultimately going to help me. Could be more professional...

Had a delicious lunch. Friendly service and food was ready and served quickly!

Delicious lunch. Cozy terrace and friendly employees. The espresso was delicious, but the cup was not heated so that could be better. I definitely recommend this restaurant.

Ate a delicious meal and drank a delicious beer. Service was great. I can only recommend. Price okay

Delicious food! Nice and friendly service!!

Delicious food and excellent service.

Highly recommended. What a pleasure to drink coffee and have lunch there. Simply, no more, extremely pleasant!

Delicious lunch. Friendly service. Cozy place.

De Malle Jan bakt er niks van! Na hartelijk ontvangen te zijn door een jonge maar vlotte, nette bediening kregen we het voorgerecht. Kaas met carpaccio althans daar leek het op🥴 zo veel kaas hebben wij nog nooit op een carpaccio gezien, echt te veel. Beide hoofdgerechten waren een drama! Pasta met gamba’s, het lijkt meer op een soep zoveel vocht zat er nog bij… smaak: mwa mwa niet om over naar huis te schrijven. En laten we eens de spare ribs proberen. Nou ik zou het iedereen afraden, wat een aanfluiting! Opgewarmde fabrieks rommel ipv verse producten. Zelfs de structuur van het vlees was waardeloos! Na drie stukjes alles laten staan, vreselijk! Alles wordt er kant en klaar opgewarmd en op een bord geknald. Open keuken maar niemand aan bakken oid, alles komt er schijnbaar kant en klaar aan. Kok kijkt je aan of hij water ziet branden als alles terug komt. Voor ons nooit meer De Malle Jan! Er zijn vele prima restaurants in de directe omgeving waar ze wel weten hoe het moet.

Nice atmosphere, attentive and friendly staff, really hospitable (as it should be, but something you don't always see elsewhere). And the food was delicious!

Good food. Service was neat and fast. I found it a bit annoying as it was a busy evening with a lot of "noise" (talking), but that is personal of course

Enjoyable meal, friendly helpful service.

Arrived late no booking as we were welcomed. Very friendly and accommodating.

Nice terrace with plenty of seating options. Service a bit slow, but this is due to understaffing. Lunch was good.

Good smooth service, tasty fresh ingredients, good portions and tasty coffee, great address

Food is very good. The dog is also allowed inside. Beautiful area for walking... All the ingredients for a beautiful day

The hamburger was delicious, the real one not the vegetarian one

Cozy restaurant and delicious food on the terrace..👍🥂

We sat on the terrace for a coffie as it was very crowded inside We ordered 2 caffeine-free coffies and the waitress said we had to go to the counter to pay. We paid 20 cents more per cup... because it was decaffeinated. ridiculous

A nice place, nice buzz. Friendly service. Very tasty food. A tent that the dog can also enter.

Cozy furnishings. Friendly and fun staff. Delicious coffee and the food looked well presented.

Nice casual atmosphere. Food simple but tasty.

Quite okay, food okay, waitresses don't necessarily understand German, but you can't expect them either. They were nice. Update: Local has now CLOSED.

Coffee with pie was fine. Friendly service.

We had a delicious meal, excellent value for money, very friendly staff. To be repeated.

Cozy and nice terrace with friendly staff.

Fantastic for a cup of coffee or tea, or lunch, dogs are also welcome here. Friendly staff And a very affordable price, I like coming here

Too bad you don't have plant-based milk for cappuccino. Unfortunately, there is little choice regarding vegan. But great atmosphere and service!
