Grand café Restaurant de Mallejan in Wijk 01 Middelaar

Delicious food and friendly service!

A beautiful restaurant, where the food is delicious. The staff is very friendly. Service is fantastic.

Lunch or dinner; it's always good! You can taste that it's always very fresh.. The service is always top-notch too! If they ask me: Where do you want to eat on your birthday? At Malle Jan, of course😃...

Spacious terrace right in the city center.

Sea lion food and very friendly staff, highly recommended.

Had a delicious meal, good atmosphere, and excellent and attentive service. Definitely worth repeating.

Cozy terrace. Delicious coffee. Service great.

Delicious food in a pleasant atmosphere. The staff were incredibly nice and friendly. This is a great place for lunch or dinner. I highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be back.

We had two delicious meals during our holiday here nearby at the park. Excellent products and pleasant service, exactly what you expect from a Grand Café. We also enjoyed two more delicious meals in October 2023 and June 2026.

Took a break during the Three Provinces tour, beautiful location.

Good atmosphere, beautiful decor. Had a delicious meal!

Been there many times. Never disappointed. Great food and great staff too. We love going there.

I go here for lunch every month with my father and my dog. Always tasty and good. Very friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Friendly service this time (it has been worse in the past), good food, good atmosphere, but some of the tables are on a stone floor and that makes a very loud squeaking sound when sliding the chairs. I think that could certainly be fixed.

Enjoyed a delicious latte macchiato on the terrace And a good affordable dinner

Fast service, great food, reasonable prices

The service was a disaster; we waited forever, then put the money on the table for the drinks and left. No one came to see us for half an hour.

Today we thoroughly enjoyed the spring sunshine on the terrace at Grand Café Malle Jan. When we arrived, the terrace was packed (blown away). Nevertheless, fast and good service. And we enjoyed ourselves 😎☀️

Cozy grand café with friendly staff and had a delicious lunch.

Cozy restaurant with a terrace in Plasmolen. Great coffee. Excellent service.

The food is always good. So I definitely recommend going there.

We arrived there on a Friday evening before 10 pm. When we walked in, only one other table was full. When we tried to order something, we were immediately told they were closing soon because it was so quiet and that we couldn't order anything food-related. If we wanted something to eat, we had to go next door to Sjapo, which they claimed was open much later and we could order snacks. We had one drink at Malle Jan and then went to Sjapo. There was still plenty of room to sit, but no, they had to discuss seating first. We were also immediately told they closed at 10:30 pm and we couldn't order anything food-related, even though the place was full. There was still plenty of room, and certainly enough customers to stay open later. We had one drink there too and left... such a shame, especially on a Friday evening!

Nice name and tasty cappuccino.

Delicious food! We had a bite to eat here before heading to our houseboat!

Cozy pancake restaurant. With a huge selection of delicious pancakes.

Enjoyed a delicious lunch. The staff was extremely friendly.

It was very pleasant, customer friendly and the food was delicious.

The atmosphere is super cozy there, and the food is delicious. The service is also top-notch.

Nice restaurants, friendly staff...good place to sit outside in good weather

Had dinner with 9 people during a midweek get-together with friends at De Riethorst. Friendly staff, excellent meals, fish, meat, dessert. Earlier this week we had lunch with 9 people, which was also excellent.

We had a wonderfully catered BBQ! It was perfectly organized.

I often have good experiences. Last night I ordered a veal ribeye, which was very tough and we had to wait over an hour. They offered a new one, saying it would take 15-20 minutes, but I declined. After 20 minutes, a new one arrived, and it was again very tough. Strangely, after the initial notification, we didn't see any staff to order anything. This time, it was very disappointing.

Had a delicious veal ribeye. So tender, perfect. The portion of fries was a bit small for two people. The dessert was also fantastic. See photo.

Great location. Reasonably priced for what you get, but that seems pretty normal these days. Beer glasses have also shrunk to 25cc. The service was very friendly, fast, and excellent.

It was very good the service was good we went there twice.

We were able to make a reservation on Sunday afternoon for that same evening. Does that sound promising? The food was inconsistent. The fish was fine, the meat was dry. Service was initially quick, but once the food was finished, it took a long time for them to ask if you wanted dessert. We had to wait over 20 minutes. The restrooms were very dirty. Yes, they were heavily used at the end of the day, so I thought I'd implement cleaning in between.

It was very cozy sitting as always. Friendly staff and everything well organized. Spacious terrace and also inside many seats.

I hadn't been there in several years. But the staff's politeness immediately brought me back to my old self. Delicious food and great hospitality.

Nice cafe for lunch and dinner. Excellent service and the staff is very service-minded. Close to the marina and camping site.

We went there twice during our vacation and had some really delicious food and drinks. I had the grilled pork fillet with truffle sauce, which was fantastic 👌

Very good food. Nice, friendly staff. Food and drinks were ready quickly and tasty

Het eten is goed, de bediening is waardeloos. Omdat er telkens vrienden aanschoven hebben we een stoel erbij gezet en werden twee tafels uiteindelijk een. In een goed restaurant wordt gevraagd of het naar wens is en of deze (goed betalende klanten) hulp nodig hebben, nee bij de malle jan plasmolen wordt er vies gekeken en krijg je ineens heel langzaam je bestellingen, en later ook drankjes. Achteraf wordt bij een rekening van 300euro gevraagd of je de stoelen weer terug wilt zetten naar de oorspronkelijke positie, lachwekkend natuurlijk, als horeca personeel zich druk maakt om verplaatste stoelen (bij ruim voldoende lege stoelen). Het terug zetten doen wij graag als klant, alleen het feit dat wij hierdoor vervelend behandeld worden is voor ons een reden om hier NOOIT meer heen te gaan, kinderlijke bediening, een meisje van tegen de 20 met dreadlocks wat volwassenen de les probeert te lezen... ballentent!

Excellent reception and accessible service, wide choice of drinks and menu/dishes. Very tasty food, soup as a starter: tasty, main course; more than enough with lots of scampi'S. No dessert.

Had a lovely meal at Mallejan last night. Booked in advance. The food was great (also warm!) All nice, smooth young people in the service. Cosy atmosphere. If we are ever in the area again, we will definitely come back.

Great food. The chicken piri piri was a bit disappointing. This was a whole piece of fried chicken with a not very special sauce served separately. Not what you expect when you read the description.

A glass was served with a delicious cappuccino. With alcohol. It would be nice if it was mentioned that it contains alcohol.

Today we thought we would end the holiday as a family with a nice dinner. We live in Middelaar and Malle Jan is usually a nice restaurant that we often visit. Today we decided to have a nice meal there. Upon arrival (4:30 PM) we ordered a drink, after which we asked for the menu. This was not possible because the kitchen would not open until 5:00 PM, not a problem at all, but when another family takes a seat next to us 5 minutes later, suddenly everything is possible and we receive the menu with the accompanying explanation. Very disappointing! Apparently a distinction is made between customers, after which we went to eat pancakes with our 4-year-old daughter across the street at Den Tol, where excellent service is provided. The woman where we paid knew about it but was not asked anything more, we were able to pay and flat out said: fuck off, you could have also started a conversation, worthless service! For us this was the last time at “maalle pietje”

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

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.
