Grand Cafē Restaurant van Bleiswijk in Wijk 00

Eleven people were having lunch, and then they told us half the menu wasn't available. No club sandwiches, no burgers. Why? I have no idea. Should we have let them know beforehand? Even one club wasn't possible. Then it was served everywhere around us. Then everyone got their meal, but one simple toasted sandwich arrived five minutes later... no apology or anything. Coffee was finally put on a tray and not even served. It's no wonder it's so quiet; it's not what it used to be. No one had any hospitality experience or passion. Feedback was given on the spot, but they weren't interested.

We went for coffee and tea. And a slice of apple pie, right? Well, it was worth it!

Poor service at the moment. They don't place drinks properly, dump them to one side, and there's no welcoming attitude towards lunch.

Good service and delicious food

Amazing food and lovely atmosphere

Lovely restaurant. On Monday, we had an early lunch with a small group of four to celebrate a special occasion. The drinks were repeatedly placed on a tray on the table, even though the restaurant was otherwise empty. I thought it was a shame that it wasn't served properly and normally. Then, three of us ordered eggs Benedict for €14.50. The bread, poached eggs, and hollandaise were stone cold. We complained, but the waitress said that's how it should be. This isn't the case at all, so we asked if they could reheat it. Unfortunately, the dishes were returned afterward; the eggs still weren't quite warm, and the rest was still cold. The plates were also ice cold. This should have been a truly delicious dish, so it was a real shame, as the ingredients were perfectly good. Too bad!

I had lunch with my daughter. The food was okay. The service staff was terrible. Four people were standing at the bar chatting while we waited to order. Customers came in from outside because they hadn't been served for 20 minutes. The waitresses were only concerned with themselves and not with the customers. It's a shame to see such a beautiful place become so neglected.

Waiting for more than half an hour in an nearly empty restaurant without any service although we asked at the entry if we could get a place and got seated. The place looked nice and the menu also but since we got no service we left for another place without eating or drinking anything.

Charming restaurant with the best apple pie and cappuccino in all of Enkhuizen. Cozy atmosphere.

Delicious cappuccino and apple pie.

The food looked beautiful and tasted delicious. The staff was attentive. We had reservations and were there from 6:30 to 9:30. We chose the three-course menu, which, with two drinks, came to over €50 per person. The atmosphere was beautiful, and the plastic flower on the table is a real shame. It's a shame they don't use real whipped cream for dessert. The strawberries were a slurry on the ice cream.

Food did not meet expectations as described on the menu

Cozy atmosphere, delicious food, friendly service. Booked through a social deal. With a drink, €35 per person.

Delicious apple pie, great cappuccino, friendly staff in a beautiful historic building. Highly recommended.

Enthusiastic service. The food was delicious, and the restaurant's decor was lovely. There was a children's corner where the kids could play to their heart's content.

We had such a great time at De Eendracht! The food was fantastic, the atmosphere was fantastic, and the service was top-notch! Unfortunately, I can only give 5 stars. I would have liked to give more, but unfortunately, that's not possible!

Good food, generous portions, delicious ice cream soup. Beautiful location, classic decor. Socially conscious.

What a beautiful location! We spontaneously stopped by for lunch. Due to several allergies in our group, we felt a little awkward about not having made a reservation. Fortunately, this was addressed positively. The chef? Came to our table and offered several options she could adapt or prepare for us. We will definitely be back!

We were here for dinner; it's a very nice restaurant with a good selection. The food was delicious, and the service was good. There's a play area for children.

Totally recommend for light lunch !

The food, service, and ambiance are all excellent. You can sit outside or inside, the service is attentive, and the food is good. The prices aren't exactly cheap, but it's relatively reasonable. A definite recommendation if you're in Enkhuizen (we've been there three times now).

Great place. Delicious sea bass.

Drinks on the terrace. It takes a while for someone to come and take the order, but otherwise the staff is friendly.

Een aanrader met hoofdletters, heerlijk gegeten, goede wijnen, zeer attente bediening , mooie ambiance en goede muziek! En dat alles voor een zeer redelijke prijs.

You can go here from early in the morning. It's a very friendly and inviting restaurant. The front area is beautifully nostalgic. The staff is friendly, with a few exceptions. Children and dogs are more than welcome. There's also an outdoor terrace, although it's on a busy street! But Enkhuizen has something magical; I love the atmosphere.

Beautiful restaurant with a great atmosphere. On Thursday, we had the unlimited spareribs. The bones came out clean and were delicious. We will definitely be back.

As a Ceasar salad lover I can tell that here you can find the best one ! Portion is huge 😂 Service is very fast and staff is sweet and helpful.

This is a special place to me, interior very nice. Served by a young man that handled us being slow like a seasoned professional. Food is always good.

We hebben hier heerlijk gegeten, hoofdgerecht mixed grill en sliptongen. Ook de de rose smaakte heerlijk. Ook al eens wezen lunchen en ook dat is dik voor elkaar! bediening leuk en gezellig. kortom een aanrader! Wij komen terug.

Op de vooravond van mijn verjaardag bij de Eendracht, voorheen van Bleijswijk, heerlijk gedineerd! Fijne locatie, fijne bediening, heerlijk eten. Het was weer fantastisch. We komen hier al een aantal jaren en het verrast ons steeds weer dat men de kwaliteit hoog weet te houden en ook personeel weet vast te houden. Dat zegt wel iets…

The service was very friendly but it was clearly not catering staff. We never got the bread basket. She had forgotten it. The main course was there within a few minutes. The fish was dry and had little meat, the chips were small leftovers that were very overcooked. The terrace was full of poop flies that did not make eating very relaxing. We could not order coffee so we just paid. Too bad it was always so good here.

I definitely do not recommend the Caesar salad here. It had nothing to do with a real Caesar salad. This was without a doubt the worst I have ever seen and only tried two bites and almost threw up The chicken thighs and anchovies were not clean enough, the presentation of the plate was sloppy, and there was not even Parmesan cheese on it even though it was on the menu." When I complained to the waitress I did not get an apology. Instead she told me I should not have eaten it if I did not like it - when I had hardly eaten anything and most of it was still on my plate. She could see it herself. All in all very disappointing. It is a shame that this restaurant serves such a bad salad and that feedback is handled so unprofessionally.

Nice place and the food was great. Attentive service who asked very often if you wanted something to drink. I know that the margins on drinks are high and asking this every now and then is fine, but I have never experienced it being asked so often. Nice play corner for small children to distract them. It was a very hot day and then the lack of air conditioning is a disadvantage.

Wonderful ambience, delicious food, friendly service.

Due to a jazz festival it was very messy, both in terms of atmosphere and service.

Delicious food. Very atmospheric ambiance and super friendly service. Always great!

Top service, ambiance and delicious lunch with 13 pax.

Had lunch and dinner on the terrace. Delicious food from the generous portions and the service is friendly and very attentive!

Had a lovely lunch at De Eendracht in Enkhuizen The look is super nice! The food is great! Service attentive!

On Mother's Day 2025 we enjoyed a fantastic Mother's Day brunch here. Highly recommended to really spoil your mother! Even if you are not a mother... Our friend, who is not a mother, said "Not born yet a cake" The atmosphere, the service, the location and the atmosphere were great! In addition, the brunch was fantastic and delicious. The asparagus soup was surprisingly refined and the addition of the green asparagus gave it an extra crispy bite. You can taste the love and attention for all the dishes. Our compliments.

Beautiful surroundings to have a snack during a walk

Good and friendly staff and tasty food

Deze plek is heel mooi, sjiek en toch ongedwongen en gastvrij. Het eten is gastronomisch en met liefde gemaakt en opgediend! Ook de prijs-kwaliteit verhouding is uitzonderlijk goed een echte aanrader!

Had a great experience here. Food was delicious. Staff friendly. We were with a large group and were in a nice spot. We had a reservation at Ankertje Enkhuizen, but this was canceled an hour in advance. Fortunately we were still able to stay here. Nothing more to praise this restaurant.

Great, couldn't go anywhere else despite reservation. Then see if you can find somewhere to go. Acted super flexibly. The food was fantastic and beautifully presented! Only 5 stars!

Heerlijk eten, aardige bediening en fijne ambiance. In een woord: een toprestaurant. We kwamen hier vanuit de haven maar komen er zeker nog een keer terug speciaal voor het lekkere eten en gezellige sfeer.

Had a nice meal over Easter. Always good

Ate here with six people. Nice ambiance. The staff is friendly but often had to wait. The map was good. The food was good except for the sparribs. It was a bit dry and the marinade could have been better. Toilets in order. The building is in good condition and there is no noise from other tables. The chairs with round backs are not ideal. They do not provide good back support. The restaurant is conveniently located in the center of Enkhuizen along the main road.

Great food, friendly staff, had a nice evening with everyone.

Recently had a delicious meal with my parents! We had a number of things to celebrate and I mentioned that when I made the reservation. When we arrived they had decorated the table extra beautifully and it made it extra special! I had the venison steak and it was really delicious. The dessert was also incredibly delicious! (Something with warm apple, caramel and ice cream) The service was also extremely friendly and pleasant. We also stopped by for lunch last week and ordered a club sandwich. Well, then you also have a delicious plate full! I have already tried the different variations and I love them all! Also highly recommended :)

Thought we would have a nice lunch, around 12:30, after ordering our drinks they were not served after more than 25 minutes, we wanted to order food and heard at least 3 times, "yes we will come to you", after 30 minutes we left this very poor service establishment. 😩

The Eendracht is located in a beautiful historical building, the entrance hall has a beautiful ceiling and the doors to the mirror room are also magnificent. We were in the room with the bar and the kitchen, which is really considerably less atmospheric compared to all that other beauty. The food was good, service friendly. But they should put down some more comfortable chairs, my back could not appreciate the dinner on those wooden chairs.

Enjoyed Twelve o'clock with beer. Small adjustment from bread with cheese to fried egg eas no problem. Nice staff. Interior nice and cozy.

Ik heb echt heerlijk gegeten, veel keuze. Het personeel was ook super vriendelijk en snel. Ik zat helemaal vol, maar toch nog een beetje ruimte overgelaten voor een toetje. Zeker een aanrader als je in de buurt van bent!

Nice location, friendly staff. Food is very tasty and a lot. We had made a reservation and were seated at a table right next to another couple while there was more than enough room beyond. The lady on staff immediately said; Come on, I have enough room for another spot so you don't sit side by side with another couple. Didn't even have to ask. Had lunch, the club sandwich classic, I had enough for the whole day 😀 my girlfriend had the salad with goat cheese, that was also full 😀 highly recommended!

Delicious food, nice service and a beautiful shop. All the ingredients for a fun evening out, together with the company of course!

We had made a reservation for 12 people at 6pm. All but 2 of us took a 3-course menu. The main course came at 7:30 PM. The main course for the first only at half past eight. Some even later. Dessert came at 9:30 PM. But some had coffee. They had forgotten that. And that person didn't feel like waiting for it after 10 p.m. I didn't have dessert either. She asked me, would you like some more. I thought it was about drinking. Very bad. Lost more than 600 euros.... My father-in-law wanted to leave as quickly as possible. He thought it was too awkward because everyone was complaining.

We had been coming to this business for years when it was still part of Bleiswijk. We usually sat on the couch because it was relaxing. Since it became the Eendracht it has deteriorated rapidly. I tried it 3 times anyway. The first time we got a bottom in a glass of wine for more than 6 euros. When we said something about this we got more. The second time I ordered a salad meal for 14 euros. That one was really bad. Small plate with gem, canned pear which was hard (while pear is now plentiful fresh) and a tiny bit of goat's cheese with most of the rind. Everything lukewarm and tasteless. I've had much better with the previous owner. 3 times my husband and I were just sitting on the couch and we were spoken to in a way! We weren't allowed to sit there! It was too far to walk for the service! We only wanted a drink and indicated that we would like to get this ourselves. As if we were naughty toddlers. This is how we were addressed. Never come here again

Fantastic restaurant. For lunch, coffee or tea with cake and dinner. Really enjoy. Recommended.

This historical building now houses a brilliant eatery where you can sit morning or night and enjoy an assortment of delicious menu items. Soak into a leather couch by the candle light with portion sizes that are ridiculously generous, full of flavour and leaves you wanting more. Customer service was attentive, quick and friendly. English menu is also available.

Very tasty food. Very much. 12 hours was wonderful. Also very flexible to adjust for my wife's lactose intolerance. Definitely go for dinner and think about the food!

Pretty good food, nice location and good atmosphere. However, the service is extremely slowwwwwww. Way toooooo slooooowwwwww. (I only ordered 1 starter and 1 main). Not sure why as the restaurant is not even crowded. I will think twice coming here next time.

Enjoyed a social deal lunch with a friend. Nice service, the club sandwiches prepared with care, nicely served, very tasty and generous. I didn't need the tortilla chips, because they didn't really add anything and were also a bit strange.

Very nice atmosphere, very good and polite service. Varied menu also for someone with a gluten-free diet. Love coming here!

Had a tenderloin with bread for lunch for a reasonable price. This was buttery soft and cooked exactly medium. Highly recommended! Apparently it was busy, because we had to wait a while for the drinks and food. Service very friendly!

Just a mouse walking in the restaurant. Reported, but service is quite laconic about it. Food is cold, spare ribs too black and tasteless, sludge floating in the fat. So I can't recommend any dish.

Ten 1e liep er een muis door het restaurant. Gemeld bij de bediening maar die deden er vrij laconiek over. Ten 2e waren de ossehaasspies koud. De spareribs waren veel te zwart en tevens smakeloos. De slibtongetjes dreven op het bord in het vet. Al met al zeer slecht.

It is a beautiful, chic and accessible place to have a nice coffee, a beer or a meal. There is plenty of space to sit, with different rooms that all have a slightly different atmosphere. They have plenty of vegetarian options (and the menu changes sometimes, so that's great). There is less choice in terms of vegan food. There seems to be little offering for people who eat gluten-free (at least in terms of snacks or lunch). The staff is nice and very approachable. Nice place and definitely recommended. One downside, the online menu is sometimes a bit vague. There is no coffee menu and allergens are not indicated, which sometimes makes it difficult to find out.

We had a delicious meal here. We ate the Zuiderzee menu. Really super and tasty! Beautiful building too!

Delicious food during Zuiderzeelicht!

We looked for this restaurant based on reviews on Google. Unfortunately, we have a different experience than the reviews. Staff was inattentive and slow. Took 20 minutes for the drinks to be served. We had to wait more than 1 hour for the meals and we had to ask for the fries mentioned in the menu. The salad with the burger was never delivered. Dessert Dutch cheeses were, in our opinion, foreign cheeses. The port ordered with the cheeses was only served after the cheeses were gone. The only positive is the atmosphere and central location in the center. In addition, the sandwich beforehand was highly recommended.

Nice meal! And very sweet, hardworking staff, that's how it can be!👍

Very friendly service, the food was tasty, sometimes it took a little longer before our next dish was brought, but we had 3 different dishes so that was probably the reason. We had a round table so it was very nice to talk and eat

We ate the 3 course Zuiderzeelicht menu for 32.50. For whatever reason, our order had not gone through properly and we only received the starter after more than an hour of waiting. This was resolved with apologies and a drink from home. Delicious starter of tuna salad, smoked salmon and scallop with tarragon mayo where a little dressing would have been the finishing touch. Main course of salmon on mashed potatoes was excellent and occasionally a generous portion of rich Tiramisu. Beautiful place, excellent food, friendly ladies in the service. White house wine from the Terret grape, which we had not encountered before, delicious.

Had lunch with classic club sandwich with smoked chicken, etc. It was very tasty. I think the room could be a bit cozier.

I came here for the unlimited spareribs package, but what a disappointment! I only got ribs twice, and then it was gone. How can you offer a promotion and not buy enough? No repeat here for me. UPDATE: We have been invited again by the manager for dinner to quickly forget our disappointment.

We came for the unlimited spare ribs but were limited to spare ribs. After everyone had had one and a half portions it was gone. Not worth repeating. Update! We have now been in contact and have come to a suitable solution. Ultimately provided good service.

A nice restaurant with a beautiful setting

Good lunch with some nice garlics shrimps to start a nice piece of salmon with plenty of fries For nain and closed with ice Cream. Good selection of different beers. Friendly service

We always enjoy lunch here! They work with beautiful products and there are good wines on the menu. Unfortunately, sometimes items are forgotten on a dish, which means we have to send something back.

It was cold and too lit. While eating red wine from white wine glasses. All three had a different wine (white and two different types of red) in glasses that smelled very bad. We went to the service with the complaint, they agreed and the option was new glasses to pour the wine into (!?) This was done, but the bad smell had already been absorbed into the wine. Feedback from the staff was: "We don't think it is possible either, we have written it down and hope they do something with it". No cutlery for dessert. When I went to get cutlery I found the waiters sitting on their buttocks behind the bar. Received four spoons, two of which were dirty. I'm never going here again. All unprofessional and unpleasant!

attractively decorated shop, well-prepared lunch dishes and prompt service

What an improvement compared to the previous managers of the 'van Bleiswijk,... A nice welcome, well instructed and friendly staff, as it should be in the catering industry. Delicious meal, satay and entrecôte, excellent vegetables and salad for two, fries and the service if we could have more, that was possible.

Voor de tweede keer zo'n 10 minuten zitten wachten op de bediening. Wij zijn vervolgens weggegaan en zijn bij een andere gelegenheid gaan borrelen. Waardeloze bediening.

Had lunch here twice in the past few weeks. First of all, it is a pity that the cozy atmosphere has completely disappeared after the renovation. Sterile light walls and lamps that are too bright. I wouldn't go here for a nice evening of dining. First time, took a bit long for lunch, but food was tasty (pulled mushrooms). The second time I ordered the "homemade" meatball on bread. After waiting for 45 minutes (this is lunch, not a full-day program) I got a plate with 2 bare slices of bread, no butter, and seriously an ice-cold meatball. The mustard mayo as indicated on the menu was missing and the pickle was just a pickle on a plate. No further decoration, very plain. Because we had already waited a long time and then received an ice-cold dish with no sauce, we decided to just pay for the homemade iced tea (which was tasty) and leave. Unfortunately we won't be having lunch here again.

When you think lunch you think, "a quick meal" not a protracted affair lasting about an hour and a half. we sat down, and we quickly got our drinks order in, 2 pretty good home made ice teas. our main lunch course would be 2 home made meatballs with "landbread", an artisinal sounding whitebread, and some pickles and a mustard mayonnaise.(for about 12 euro's a pop.) all in all it sounded nice and it's not a culinairy disaster to order. most dutch eateries have a thing like this. we got our drinks and after about half an hour we started wondering where they were as we did start to get a bit peckish and hadn't eaten yet. they arrived after a bit more than half an hour. one was okay, the other was cold in the middle, like still half frozen cold in the middle. there was a sad cut up pickle in a little saucer and the musterd mayo was no-where to be seen. we informed the waitress and it was taken back to the kitchen. to get us new ones. it would have been fine if they expedited the second try but we proceeded to wait rather long for the mulligan and our lunch hour was slowly creeping in to the 2 hour mark. so we skipped. now, correct me if i am wrong but how do you mess up a meatball? even the gas station has them in a big vat of gravy warm, ready to eat. this screams last minute microwave to me. and not even in a good way. i grant you, it was a busy time to get lunch but the thing we ordered was literally 2 slices of bread a meatball some gravy and a pickle. not a burger or one of those huge club sandwiches they do. we could have been easy, in-and-out 45 minute lunch patrons but this was just sad. will not be coming back.

Beautiful place, incredible atmosphere. Very good food 🥰 very friendly and accommodating staff. Food arrives quickly, you spend about €25 per person. Beautiful experience

Beautiful place, the food is very good, fast service and very kind waiters.

Tijdens onze vakantie in Enkhuizen kwamen wij bijna iedere dag bij Van Bleiswijk in de Westerstraat. 's Ochtends voor koffie met appeltaart, tussen de middag tijdens de lunch een salade en 's avonds vaak een pannetje met mosselen/ Alles was top bij Van Bleiswijk!

We had a wonderful evening with the 2 of us. My husband chose fish dishes and has never eaten so deliciously! I had tomato soup and the Eendracht burger and I would choose that again, delicious! Although there is so much more on the menu that I would like to try🙏🏻 The staff was also very friendly and we really felt seen. Next time we will bring our critical teenagers, they will love this too!

Nice lunch, delicious onion soup, very tasty.

friendly service, delicious food and fast!

Unfortunately we only had a short time for a coffee, so no more detailed review of the food and service. But very nice coffee with a great ambience. (By the way, the coffee was good too 😉)

So good, that my son (3) and I came back for breakfast the next morning! Delicious food prepared with care, light and spacious restaurant, relaxed and cozy atmosphere and very child-friendly with a spacious play area with tables nearby. There are also all kinds of board games, so also fun for older children and board game enthusiasts. And if you fancy a date without the noise of children, the restaurant is big enough! Extremely friendly staff. This was a really great place for our weekend getaway. Photos of my son's sweet potato gnocchi and pasta, tiramisu and a delicious raspberry ice cream. There is a healthy children's menu and you can even order from the menu and pay half the price for a children's portion. Wonderful to visit a restaurant where chicken nuggets are not the standard. This restaurant is highly recommended :-)

I come here regularly and the food is always great! Good taste (combinations), quality & quantity. Nice and fresh too - per season. We recently celebrated our anniversary here and they had placed very nice decorations! Service is always good too - cheerful people, pleasant atmosphere. And in the summer the iced coffee is highly recommended :-) Also great prices - three-course menu and 2 drinks per person, less than 100 euros. They also have a lunch special every week for 8.75. Where else can you find that?

Very nice atmosphere. The service was super friendly and accommodating. I have allergies and they took great care of them and gave me good advice. The food was also very tasty.

With new owners, all luxury has actually been removed from the restaurant. Simple uncomfortable furniture. Only a few kids in the service who are more concerned with their hangover from the night before than focusing on the customers. Won't go there again, not even for breakfast. Double and Cross is by far a better choice

A lot of food for a lot of money.

We had a nice meal, it took a little longer before we got our food, but it was compensated with a drink and soup

... Extraordinary ambience inside...with outdoor area... Nice service...
