Guusje in Centrum

Super nice place with delicious food

A really cozy spot, definitely stop by if you're in the area.

Super nice interior and building, beautiful terrace and delicious coffee

Very cozy, modern, and trendy place. Lots of choice in food and drinks. We had a delicious breakfast there. Friendly service and plenty of seats on the terrace to sit outside. Inside, there is also ample seating. The service was also quick. Later in the day, we came back specifically for an ice coffee.

Our go-to place for lunch in Apeldoorn! The food is always delicious, but when it's busy you have to be a little patient, though we never mind :)

Very tasty Iced vanilla latte frape. It's great that this is also available as decaf!

comfy place, service was great especially the bartender with the red hair!!

A lovely café with a cozy atmosphere and friendly service. Everything felt welcoming and relaxed. The apple cake was especially delicious and is definitely worth trying. I would happily come back again.

Very nice atmosphere with a beautiful location on the little square. At first, it seemed good. We ordered a tasty smoothie and the drinks arrived quickly. Unfortunately, after ordering lunch, it took more than 45 minutes! The crispy chicken was dry and the lettuce soggy. The service was unfriendly, and after mentioning that it was taking a long time, no apology was forthcoming. The waitress clearly wasn't in the mood either. So, for us, it is not worth repeating!

The service isn't always very fast, but it's a great place to have coffee!

This is a stylishly decorated place where the food is overpriced and substandard. A smoothie of less than 200 milliliters costs 5.80; a brunch table for one person costs 15 euros and, besides old avocado, contains a limp, greasy croissant and a soggy bagel. The price-quality ratio is very poor. A shame, because the decor is nice.

Had a delicious meal and drinks at Guusje. Thanks! 😋 ❤️

Had a bottomless brunch with 8 people. The service is slow. The plates were dirty. When we pointed this out, new plates were brought. Unfortunately, they were dirty again. The lunch itself wasn't quite right either; I didn't expect much to begin with, but this was really bad. Would not recommend it…

The atmosphere and energy is amazing.

We went in for coffee at 7:30 PM on April 23, 2026. There were only two tables inside. It was almost empty. We sat down and for about 5-8 minutes the staff didn't come to take our order. In fact, two employees were talking behind the counter. They could have attended to the customers instead of talking, but they didn't, so we got up and left without having anything to drink. This isn't the first time; we've waited a long time before. I think it's clear why this place was empty while all the other places and terraces were full. I won't be coming here again.

Delicious Egg Benedict in a cozy setting.

Due to a movie promotion at Gigant, we tried to get in touch. There was no phone number, and for info, you had to send an email. Well, they don't respond to that either. Apparently, they are busy enough. So we are looking for another place.

The food was tasty. Service was fine. The interior looked nice, but it feels just like being in a luxury company canteen. People everywhere with laptops, with or without headphones, sitting there for a long time on just a tea, and occupying the better seats at that. Send those people away or force them to have lunch, and without laptops at that. Behind us, some clown was handling his business phone calls. Without all this, I would have given 5 stars. Now only 3.

The food is bland, especially the lunch dishes. It's a nice place to sit, though!

Cozy little place with very tasty coffee.

I ordered a Norwegian bagel and a vanilla latte, which was honestly the best bagel I've ever had. The service was excellent, the staff very friendly, and the wait wasn't long at all. The café itself is in a prime location, and the decor is very nice and cozy.

Had lunch. The table wobbled terribly, making cutting bread even more difficult with the slightly dull knife. And the plastic packaging for the butter was still in it. All in all, the staff was very incompetent and slow. Not worth repeating.

A lovely spot in the middle of the shopping street with a relaxed atmosphere. The interior is cozy. Lunch was delicious, and there are cakes from Jonlink bakery for those who fancy them.

Great atmosphere, delicious breakfast. Definitely worth coming back.

Nice place, great atmosphere. Excellent menu. The carrot cake is delicious.

Great. Nice place and delicious food. I was there alone and was able to have a quiet lunch.

Unfortunately, I had a very disappointing experience at Guusje in Apeldoorn. The restrooms were filthy and clearly not well-maintained. During our visit, dishes were dropped several times, which caused quite a stir. Furthermore, the matcha latte was bitter and not stirred properly, making it barely drinkable. All in all, not a pleasant experience, and I wouldn't repeat it.

my favourite cafe in apeldoorn relevant waiters good lunch and coffee

Mediocre food. Children serving, no owner or manager in sight. Definitely go to the restroom elsewhere; they're the dirtiest in Apeldoorn.

Enjoyed a delicious brunch platter for two (€28), which was just the right amount! There was a cozy atmosphere and the staff were friendly, so definitely recommended! ☺️

The place is really magical - full of beautiful people with magic mood - Vibes were ONLY GOOD - Cindy was a perfect reflection of high quality service with a genuine smile and wonderful mood up lifter - Btw The music was inspired throughout the evening and the sound system and the volume of sound were superb. Also great compliments to the rest of the beautiful and vibrant service team who worked in synch and were incredibly polite and easygoing - working together as team was a pleasure to experience - it was an unforgettable conclusion of our already wonderful experience of Apeldoorn - Can’t wait to visit again - it will always be our meet place - Do check out the architecture- there is an unbelievable stair case - UPSTAIRS - Check it out !!! see in pictures posted

Great location, fast service, friendly service and delicious food.

Nice place in the city center, with delicious food. But the bread slices are a bit too big.

Delicious coffee, friendly staff. I'm a regular here.

Because it was a busy day, the staff didn't immediately realize we were waiting to order. After I approached someone at the bar, we received friendly service. The drinks and lunch were of good quality, and we'll definitely be back.

For the price, it should have been better. Next time I'll go somewhere else. It was my first time.

Cozy place, a good spot to read a book. The prices are reasonable, and the staff is helpful and doesn't stop by too often.

I've been to Guusje a few times, but unfortunately, my experiences have been mixed, so writing a review is difficult. I ordered bitterballen once, half of which were still frozen solid. The second time I ordered a carpaccio sandwich, which was delicious. Drinks, coffee, etc., were always good. The staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is great. What I did find annoying was that I took the last sip of my drink and someone immediately stood next to me. "Would you like another drink?" I said no, "Shall we pay now?" I was then asked. I think that's a bit hasty. I might want another drink later, but I paid and left.

Delicious food and good and fast service

First time at Guusje, As a local I've heard about Guusje's existence for quite some time but never actually went. A hip, cosy but little bit expensive place. The menu has a nice variety of vegan and non vegan options but no English menu unfortunately, no biggie. We ordered a carpaccio and kroket sandwich which arrived very quickly. Staff were friendly and considerate and did nothing wrong. Food was good, perhaps a little too much lettuce for my liking and too little cheese on the carpaccio, but overall more than satisfactory. Kroketten with thick brown bread, butter and mustard. A classic with which very little can go wrong. Pretty decent but yeah, a bit expensive. But the thing where Guusje stands out, its vibe. Cosy, busy but also somehow quiet, able to talk easily without feeling overwhelmed. Nicely designed interior and smooth lighting. Overall: Guusje is a decent place to go for a nice lunch/borrel. It wont blow you away with quality or low prices but overall it provides a comfortable and pleasant experience.

Guusje is a charming, trendy hotspot in the heart of Apeldoorn. The brightly lit interior with cozy nooks and crannies invites you to linger. Local details, such as vintage advertising posters from Apeldoorn businesses (think Zwitsal and Sparta), create a unique atmosphere. With delicious coffee and a welcoming setting, Guusje is a place you'll happily return to.

Very homey atmosphere. Really nice.

The best coffee (Manetti!) in Apeldoorn, friendly service, and great music :) A nice place to sit with a book or do some work. Thanks for all the delicious flat whites, and see you again soon :)

They still serve really good coffee here from a portafilter machine. I'm impressed...and even though it's located in the middle of a shopping street, the prices are still reasonable. Service is quick. Only the cleanliness and ambiance of the restrooms leave something to be desired. They need more attention here.

Nice and atmospheric place. It closes early, even though you can also dine there.

We ate here today, at the brunch table for two. I expected more than we got; what was served was good, but not very much for 28 euros. "Fresh fruit" was 2 strawberries and 4 blueberries. Unfortunately, the salmon was also missing from our plate, but we only discovered this afterward when we were discussing price and quality. A nice lady checked to see if she could help us, but unfortunately, she couldn't. I would order differently next time.

Nice spot in the center of Apeldoorn. The food was excellent and the service was friendly. We sat on the terrace; the interior looked very nice!

There are several places to get coffee in the center of Apeldoorn. Guusje is one of them. The two of us shared a good cup of coffee and cake. The price is average. However, the regular coffee doesn't have a handle on the cup, which isn't always convenient when the coffee is still nice and hot.

Today I went to lunch with my husband. I ordered a salmon sandwich, but shortly afterward I became very ill, nauseous, and had stomach cramps... I'm definitely not having lunch with this.

Nice location, fast service and tasty dishes.

Everything was perfectly fine, EXCEPT the service regarding clearing the table. There were four of us. My wife hadn't finished her meal yet, but everyone else had. The waitress leaned halfway over the table to clear the table. I found that rather antisocial.

tasty lunch and friendly service

Great coffee shop! Just missing a fun play area or something!

Very nice restaurant. The coffee and pastries were excellent. We had lunch there later, which was excellent. The staff is also very friendly.

Good meal, but with a corresponding price. Service is friendly and quick. A pleasant square with a view of the old town hall. Quite noisy. Great food, but with a corresponding price. Service is friendly and quick. A charming square with a view of the old town hall. Quite noisy.

I ordered a cinnamon roll for €4.50. Instead, I received Dirk van der Broek's cinnamon roll (65 cents) on a plate. It was warmed up on a bed of strawberry sauce and two blackberries. This is simply unacceptable. The coffee was good.

Guusje is amazing! 🥰 Guusje is located in the heart of Apeldoorn and has a large terrace and nice places to sit inside. They have everything: cocktails, beer, snacks, but also breakfast with yogurt and granola, delicious cakes, and a wide selection for lunch. The service is good, the atmosphere is great, the prices are also very reasonable, and I really love the food here. Guusje always makes me happy with what they serve. The only downside is that they regularly change the menu, and if I have my favorites, they're sometimes gone, but that's okay, and it doesn't detract from how great this place is for breakfast, lunch, or drinks!

Delicious coffee and croissant! .. only the pastry choices I found minimal!!

The food and drinks taste good, but they do have the problem of sometimes long waits, which I suspect is due to the limited staffing. However, once you have your drink or snack, you'll appreciate the quality.

Nice location and didn’t get too busy even at lunch time. Food was nice and a good price, same goes for the coffee. We got the feeling that the staff were a bit rude with us which ruined the experience a bit.

I ordered a carpaccio sandwich, but it had more lettuce than carpaccio, and they even forgot the truffle mayonnaise! It happens. But no onion, tomato, cucumber, etc. On top, you pay €12.50 for it. No compensation, just apologies. When I paid, they asked if everything was to my liking. I said no, "Oh, too bad," and still had to pay the full price, expecting compensation. I won't be back.

Unfortunately, a huge letdown. Beautiful location, plenty of staff, which is also nice these days. That's where the compliments end. Fresh mint tea with six silverfish in it, "We just got new glasses, didn't rinse them, our apologies." It happens, but this guy's apologies were truly sincere. A croquette sandwich came with no mustard. We had to ask for it again. A carpaccio sandwich without truffle mayo, another sandwich returned. Cutlery still had to be brought after our food was on the table. Disappointing, that's the summary. The waitress apologized. The guy at the cash register asked if everything was to his liking, but our answer didn't really matter. I also couldn't find a place to change our little one, so I had to do it on the couch. Five waitresses saw me walking around with my baby and diaper looking for a spot, and no one spoke to me. A real shame! We'll choose someone else next time. I hope the owner can do something about this, because you have a really nice place and this is a real shame!

I ordered tuna brioche, which was very meager for €12. The brioche was topped with a small amount of tuna salad on one side and mostly lettuce. The salad was good/sufficient.

Nice terrace. Service is unfortunately not very attentive. The food is okay but not exceptional.

Delicious. Prices are reasonable. Plenty of seating (including upstairs).

This is a cafe I really enjoy sitting there with great coffee. The location is perfect, the coffee is amazing, the staff is super friendly, but only gets my 2 stars because of the food. We ordered one brunchtafel and one scones dish, and there came several disappointments. Firstly, I don’t think the chef knows what a scone is. Look at the pictures below, I would just call it a small bread with overloaded vanilla extract. Secondly, the croissant was very oily, dry and old. I don’t know how they managed to make it like a 3-day-old chorus. Besides, it mentioned on the menu that there would be ham on the brunchtafel but we didn’t get it. The quality of the food (only food!) is just not worth of the price.

Arrived for lunch at noon, the Moroccan tomato soup was already "sold out"—apparently, a lot of soup is sold in the morning. Then the wrong order was taken, and my partner had to wait for hers. She was supposed to be delivered first, but I'd already finished my sandwich before it finally arrived. This was our third visit to Guusje, and each time it was a disappointment; this was our last chance.

What a disaster! The four of us arrived, having made a reservation for 1:00 PM, and a table by the window. We arrived at 1:00 PM, and there was no reservation. After 20 minutes, a spacious table opened up for us, but not by the window. We wanted lunch; the small menu included bitterballen (bitterballen) and Mexican soup with a hummus sandwich. We ordered those, but the soup was gone. So, we ordered a double portion of hummus sandwich with brown bread. After a considerable time, three double hummus sandwiches were served with white bread; sorry, the kitchen misread it. Bitterballen were okay, though. After another considerable time, the brown hummus sandwiches arrived. The hummus was spread about 0.1 mm thick on the bread slices, with a stray ring of onion and sour cucumber. Wow, oh, wow. We also wanted a sparkling water, but sorry, they're out of sparkling water. One of us wanted to use the restroom. Too bad there's no toilet paper. It was truly embarrassing. However, the wait staff was very friendly and had to apologize frequently. In short: lunch at Guusje is not recommended.

Vooraf een afspraak gemaakt wat er gegeten mocht worden. Tijdens het opnemen weken ze hier toch vanaf en kon niet teruggedraaid worden. Was veel te weinig eten waardoor meerdere personen opnieuw iets moesten bestellen. Dit was voor onze reizigers zeer onduidelijk. Meerdere bestellingen waren fout en moesten hersteld worden. Hamburger volledig verkoold en moest dus ook opnieuw. Rekening was aanzienlijk hoger. Er werd niets aan gedaan. Er moest maar een mail worden gestuurd. Oplossing waar ze mee kwamen toen we weg gingen, jullie mogen een nagerecht voor de helft. Alsof we daar ooit nog iets willen eten.

We went here for coffee and tea with some pastries. The waitress clearly didn't feel like it. Shows little emotion and sees work more as a duty than as something to enjoy. The fact that you can get pastries from Maassen bakery is great. Next time I'll go somewhere else.

We had the "Breakfast table" here. A real disgrace and not recommended. The menu says "..., yoghurt, granola & banana" and that was expressed in a bowl of yoghurt in which the whole lot had already been thrown. The "table with sandwiches" consisted of 2 slices of dark bread and 2 small sandwiches. One of the sandwiches was a one-bite sandwich. The eggs were boiled for too long and therefore black. By the way, we did get new eggs. The interior of "guusje." is nice, but the floor was not clean, the carpets look incredibly dirty, the water in the vases with flowers was cloudy and the high chair of our neighbours had terribly dirty legs. I hope that the dining tray was hygienically clean The price/quality ratio was completely gone. This was our last visit to "guusje."

nice restaurant with a lovely terrace and friendly staff. The atmosphere is relaxed, the coffee is top a perfect place to relax and enjoy!

Had a nice sandwich, very noisy inside. Nice terrace outside.

Apple Pie was very cold. Just out of the freezer I think. But tasted good!

No fresh juice and apple juice that is not deliciously organic. Apple pie is also not home-baked. But a lovely terrace, friendly team and good coffee!!

Enjoy sitting outside in the city center

Guusje is van eigenaren die meerdere horeca zaken hebben. Dan mag je verwachten dat ze weten hoe je een horeca zaak runt…en je kan voorbereiden op het grotere terras waar je om gestreden hebt. Extra omzet met drukke dagen. Maar wat een zooitje is het bij Guusje…2x besteld en minimaal 30min moeten wachten op ons drinken…bediening liepen als kip zonder kop rond…maar als 1 van ons een patatje had gehaald en aan het eten was aan onze tafel had ze daar wel oog voor en kwam waarschuwen dat dit niet mag…dat heeft ze te horen gekregen…wc wat een puinhoop, glazen waren op en onze wijn kregen we in Gore ongewassen glazen…Guusje…ga eens bij Café de Paris kijken hoe ze het daar doen…helaas was er bij Guusje wel plek

I have eaten at Guusje several times now and there is something special every time. The first time we waited an hour for our food because they forgot our order, but we were okay with this because it was fun :) The second time I ordered the chicken chorizo ​​stew. This was a very tasteless chicken soup with dry pieces of chorizo, there was nothing 'stewed' about this stew. Indicated and they couldn't do anything about it, because 'this is how they always make it'. We didn't eat it, but we had to pay for it. Fortunately, the salad we ordered was tasty. Ordered a croquette sandwich for the third time, the waitress said it was without fries, so I ordered more fries. It turned out that there were fries with it.... I'm not someone who complains or whines easily, but after 3 chances I won't come to Guusje again.

Nice place where we had coffee, and nice and spontaneous staff

Wat een afgang zeg. 35 minuten wachten op een drankje als je dan bij 2de ronde probeert iets te zetten van de snackbar ernaast wordt je weggestuurd maar al wel 4 drankjes betaald wordt je door dik meisje van terras weggestuurd ben wel ff gaan vragen naar m’n drankjes deze gekregen maar snel opgedronken en hier durf ik nooit meer met iemand heen ga je schamen ontsla je personeel want zo gaat je tent kapot geef mensen een goed gevoel mening elk geval t geen waar ze voor betaald hebben

Very disappointing - not recommended What a mockery. We came for a cappuccino and a piece of cake. There was apple pie in the display case, so I pointed to it. Employee: “It's gone.” Pointed out again: “It's gone.” While he was literally standing there. It hurt my mind – like being in a bad version of the purple crocodile commercial. Then I chose something else. Unfortunately, the staff was busier drinking their own matchas than taking orders or serving anything. After waiting twenty minutes - without anything on the table - we left and canceled the order. It felt like we were in a sloppy student room. Hygiene? Moderate. Service? Casual and slow. Interested in guests? Nil. So we won't be coming back here again.

Bad and dirty place, satay just like “boiled” chicken, totally tasteless! No additions just fries and some lettuce (you get better service at the cafeteria around the corner) The fries were the only thing that was good! 4 x, 5 x coffee almost €82! Coffee served in a bowl without a handle and could only be held when the coffee was already cold! So a one-off visit, I won't be going again!

Friendly, unusual decoration, but I didn't think it was really clean

Personally, I think the service and quality have deteriorated quite a bit. The latte I ordered was not really tasty and a slab of butter on one French toast could have been neater.

Sympathetic and helpful staff, Nova, you are wonderful.

It was a bit strange that the employee did not know what tasty snacks were on the floor. Those snacks were delicious, by the way. We only missed some hot snacks.

Vanmiddag dachten even lekker te lunchen. Ik had een sandwich met zalm besteld, op de menukaar staat, met rode ui,biet en kappertjes, ik heb ze alle drie niet kunnen vinden, alleen een beetje sla met een flinterdun plakje zalm. Het brood was minstens 5 dagen oud, ik stikte er bijna in. Daarbij had ik een glaasje wijn besteld, dat was zo weinig,dat het met twee slokken op was. Mijn man had de krokante kip, nouw hier van hetzelfde laken een pak. We hebben al veel geluncht op verschillende locaties, maar dit hebben we nog nooit meegemaakt. Dus hier komen we nooit weer.

Even though it is King's Day, you can make your customers very dissatisfied by serving such food. We took every dish from the drinks menu here tonight. The appetizer consisted of 90% dry meatballs. The remaining 10% were tasteless nasi snacks that many Asians would roll over in the proverbial grave for. The 'loaded' frieze especially felt unloaded. Cold grated cheese and a little mayo make fries not loaded. The Gyozas were huge coriander bombs. As if a small coriander nursery manifests itself in the mouth. The normal fries were lukewarm to cold. The nachos were also very poor. House brand chippies with a pale cold factory guacamole. No, you don't have to come here for the food. The service was okay, the ambiance was fine.

Service staff ran around like a bunch of wild chickens. Food in the pictures looks very good but the quality that is brought to the table is a joke. Fries cold and fried halfway through. A chef in his first year of training can do the burgers better. Not recommended

Fries cold, burgers hard, meat raw!!! Despite a lot of waitresses, we waited a long time to place our order!!! When the food came, only half was brought. It didn't taste good either and we're still waiting for the mayonnaise today!!! Definitely not recommended!

It's a pity that you can't make a reservation, I specifically asked for an exception due to mother's birthday and age, 93, who had to come to town especially by bus to have lunch together at Guusje. but no exception could be made. very unfriendly and not hospitable from the manager who was called to make an exception. Rigid behavior, inhospitable and not inviting to give or receive another gift voucher from them. Too bad again! I was able to reserve lunch somewhere else on King's Day.

Delicious cake, great coffee and great ambience.

Stairs going up are scary. Nice coffee

Excellent food. Helpful staff (sauce separately).

Recently had lunch here at a not too busy time. We first waited fifteen minutes until (after raising a hand) someone from the service had the spirit to ask if they could do something for us. Then had a Carpaccio that was probably spoiled, I was quite sick from it.

I always thought that if you order salmon with avocado and a poached egg, there is no way it won't be good, but I was so wrong... The bread slices, one of them was 4cm high on one side and 1cm on the other,the avocado which was supposed to be cut in pieces and laid on the bread, was just a peeled half avocado that was uncut,will attach a picture or this beauty, since words cannot describe it.

Nice terrace and sometimes nice in the sun. But the service is terrible. Staff only looks straight ahead and pays no attention to the guests. After more than 20 minutes I went inside to order my drinks, but even then it still took about 15 minutes. They were very busy, the excuse was, but some employees were visibly doing nothing or were more likely to work very slowly. Which was fun to pay attention to and analyze.

Waited for very long for the drinks, food took 45 minutes to arrive. And then we got the wrong dish, after waiting 30 more minutes for the food we left without getting the food. Not handled well by the staff

In the middle of the city of Apeldoorn Cozy furnishings Reasonable price Nice beer Lots of space Good price-quality ratio

De bediening is heel slecht. Ze letten niet op wie er nog niet heeft besteld dus erg lang wachten. Mijn dochter en ik kwamen er voor een kop koffie en wat lekkers. Het duurde heel lang voordat we wat hadden. Er waren andere mensen die maar weg waren gegaan zonder dat ze het bestelde hadden gekregen. Het toilet was heel vies.
