KEES Eten & Drinken in Wijk 01 Poortugaal-Noord

In the past the food was a bit better, now it's a bit meager. Meat with fries, but they can't even manage a little lettuce and vegetables anymore.

There was nothing wrong with the food itself. I had the hamburger and it was very tasty. But the price is really on the high side. Someone else with us had spareribs. We assumed it was a children's portion, that's how little it was. So the quality itself is fine, but it is really pricey.

A charming, trendy bistro with a somewhat standard cafe menu. It's a beautiful space, with quick and friendly service and delicious food. In good weather, you can sit outside in a lovely, sheltered spot, feeling far removed from the busy Groene Gruisweg, which is actually right next to it. The on-site parking and proximity to the metro station are also major advantages.

Had a delicious meal, a nice stop to refuel!

Had a lovely dinner last night with my two grandsons and girlfriend. Nice table by the window. The steak, hamburgers, and spareribs were perfect, as was the service. She even took a few photos that have since been passed around within the family. We will be back!

Had a delicious meal, great atmosphere, and a fantastic price 😀

Was old-fashioned good!!! Super

The charcuterie board was generous, tasty, and varied, but unfortunately, the main courses were disappointing. I simply didn't like the taste, and the children's dishes, including the burger, were also less than expected. The portions were average, and the wait time was normal. The staff was friendly, but when I indicated that the food didn't taste good, nothing was done about it. I found that a shame. Outside, you sit quite close to the road, which can make it quite noisy. The restaurant itself looked neat. Parking is well organized: there is a spacious private parking lot that also includes a parking space for the disabled. Inside, the tables are a bit close together, but it is still manageable. I would come back for the charcuterie board, but I will hold off on the main courses for now.

Convenient spot along the road from Rotterdam to Spijkenisse. Food was average, dessert was great.

It was good, tasty food, good service, friendly staff, simply top-notch.

One of my favorite places in Hoogvliet and the surrounding area! Nice terrace and beautiful indoor seating. The food is delicious, the service is good and always fast!

The food is of good quality, though the portions could be a bit bigger. Friendly service, they are sweet to my little girl. Definitely recommended!

I cannot give a passing grade because of the food. I have a stomach upset after the salad, hence the unsatisfactory rating, because that really isn't good. My husband had a fried egg; the egg on top tasted very old and dry. As if it had been prepared earlier in the day and reheated. Otherwise, friendly staff, tasty drinks, and a nice atmosphere, but I would say go only for a drink and safe fried snacks where little can go wrong.

Good place! Amazing pork ribs 🥰

Tasty food good service Reasonable prices

Unfortunately, unable to pay with a dinner card

Quiet place with attentive service. The place got a bit busier around 7:00 PM, but we had an excellent meal.

Cozy, casual dining The food is delicious. A choice for everyone

Delicious food and great service! Cozy interior. The main road next to the restaurant is unobstructed! Highly recommended!

Service is prompt and friendly. The food was delicious (burger and croque monsieur). I found the presentation on the burger plate a bit on the meager side in relation to the rather steep price (Eur 21). The accompanying fries were really small.

The Korean meat was very tasty and melted in the mouth, but the kimchi was sauerkraut. It was a nice restaurant, but the service was odd. Plates and glasses constantly had to be passed around instead of being served. Additionally, drinks and food were cleared away while not everyone had finished eating.

Cozy, nice atmosphere. Food is fair to good.

This time everything was great again. Fast, attentive service, tasty food.

Unfortunately, I didn't find the food as tasty anymore; they changed the menu. It is very cozy there, friendly staff, good service. I don't know if we will go back.

In April '26, the three of us ate at Kees's. Upon entering, it smelled musty and damp; I thought that didn't bode well. Fortunately, the smell was gone inside the restaurant. The starter was fine, and the staff regularly asked if everything was okay. We shared the focaccia among the three of us; it was sufficient and fine. After that, a hamburger, steak, and farm chicken. I had the chicken and felt almost sorry for it to eat. It was such a tiny thing, comparable to a large mango. I do wonder if it came straight from the oven, because it was absolutely not crispy or browned. The taste was fine. The raspberry cheesecake and dame blanche were tasty. All in all, we had a good meal and it's a nice place.

The menu has changed, and we definitely miss choices from the old menu. The food is good, but we still prefer the previous menu. Service is excellent as usual.

Friendly and flexible service, warm welcome message with reservation in the form of a card.

Nice place to grab a quick drink or/and something to eat Or to have some tasty bar snacks or a snack platter Only the snack platter has changed and isn't as tasty, and super top-notch as before, that's 1 *

The food was particularly good for a nice price, the staff nice and friendly, and the atmosphere good. Highly recommended!

Mega full and busy. Absolutely every square millimeter is utilized. Perhaps slightly fewer tables to improve the atmosphere and acoustics.

Yesterday we went for lunch at Kees's. We opted for a "12 o'clock" there. This consisted of one slice of bread with a croquette, half a slice of ham topped with a poached egg, and a shot glass of soup. A "12 o'clock" is a dish you see a lot in this region, but I have never experienced anything as meager as at Kees's. At home, I just ate a currant bun instead.

Had a delicious lunch and sat on the sunny terrace.

We dined here together. I'd been here a few years ago and already loved it back then. I hadn't been for a long time due to a move, until tonight. We had a wonderful meal; we really enjoyed it! The food and service were simply perfect. It even seemed better than about three years ago. We'll be back soon, even from Groningen!

Top restaurant!!!! I love coming here, good and tasty food. Good, friendly, and fast service. Highly recommended!!!

Great restaurant. Friendly staff and delicious food!

The atmosphere was pleasant and busy. The service was excellent and very friendly. The food was also delicious.

The food at Kees's is good, but nothing special. The atmosphere was very nice and the service friendly.

Everything I ate was perfect. Friendly staff, warm atmosphere with dim lighting. I would recommend it to everyone.

Nice restaurant with a great atmosphere. We had dinner with colleagues; the food was excellent, good quality, and reasonably priced. Highly recommended!

A limited menu but excellent selection. The food is good and the atmosphere is always pleasant. The service is very friendly and helpful.

They have a smoker! Makes incredibly tasty ribs.

Cozy place. Delicious lunch, but honestly, the portions have gotten smaller. The bread was crispy and fresh. The ingredients used were tasty and fresh. The beer wasn't poured properly. Too much foam. And I think it's a shame to serve it like that. So lazy for something customers value so much.

Good service, friendly atmosphere. A bit pricey though. Cappuccino, cola, blond beer, and a large glass of water for around €17.

Had a wonderful meal with the family. Lovely location. I'll definitely be back.

Delicious food. Wonderful tender steak. And a tasty appetizer.

Of what we tried, the ribs and beefsteak were very tasty.

Today I called the restaurant with a question about a reservation. I got a computer voice named Kees🙄. I found that strange, because that's not exactly hospitable for a restaurant. After answering a few questions, I was finally connected to someone from the restaurant. This young woman answered with "hello🤔"... Downside number two. Then another unclear answer to my question, which ultimately led us to cancel the reservation. Maybe I should reconsider this "hospitality" a bit. I'll skip this from now on.

Had dinner with the family yesterday; it was delicious, and a compliment to the lady with the glasses and a beautiful smile. Super good service and fast.

Yesterday, after a long time, I ate at Kees's again. How the quality of the food has deteriorated! A hamburger that was far too dry, three-quarters of which we sent back. (The waitress's reaction was nonexistent.) The cod fillet I ordered was served with some vegetables—if you can even call them vegetables—and only a small cone of fries. And honestly: how dare you charge €6.65 for a bottle of water? Kees's management, this is really not going well with the way you're currently serving food. You won't be seeing me again!

The food was delicious! The staff was friendly, and it looks very inviting.

Very good experience in this cosy restaurant. Ribs were awesome!!! Friendly staff.

Had lunch on a Saturday afternoon. The food was delicious, the fried eggs were generously filled and perfectly cooked. The carpaccio sandwich was also packed with ingredients. Definitely not expensive, excellent value for money.

I ordered the complete omelette here. Unfortunately, it was quite disappointing. On the bottom were mushrooms that clearly came from a jar. It's best not to offer them with the omelette at all. No mushrooms are always better than mushrooms from a jar. The slices of bread were also cut far too thick, and the omelette lacked flavor; it was bland and boring. Also, a tip for the service: if a guest asks for green tea, serve actual green tea. Twice, I received a bag of verbena tea in a green cellophane wrapper instead. That's green packaging, but verbena tea is not green tea. It's a shame this has gone wrong twice already.

Had a really delicious salmon sandwich...really very fresh

Nice place for a tasty lunch, for example.

A real gem! The atmosphere is very pleasant and comfortable. The staff is friendly, and the food is always delicious.

Nice tent. Delicious food and pleasant service. And the dog thought it was great too.. 🐕

I had ordered an extensive lunch for ten people, which was disappointing, sorry to hear, I had expected something completely different, it was a disguised hythea, I had hardly eaten anything myself, it was very scarce and only a few snacks for me, never again and it was my birthday, what struck me was three large plates immediately a kind of ragout of mushrooms, why not a plate and something else with it, nobody liked that but I had to pay for it, so I will never go there again and this was also not the agreement, sorry to hear

Delicious lunch on the terrace, class

I've eaten at this restaurant before, which is quite on my route, and it was a success again. The owner and I had a great meal, and the service was exceptionally friendly and professional, as were the kitchen staff. I'd love to come back again. René Nobel

We stopped on route to the ferry port, for lunch. Just googled for any restaurant near the ferry port and thankfully this one showed. Glad we made the decision to stop here for lunch. The food was very tasty and the setting was very clean. The service we received was brilliant.

It was delicious again...nice and friendly service and delicious food.

The food was very tasty, the service was excellent and the atmosphere was good.

We dined there with eight people. We're regulars. The food is always excellent, nothing special, just the standard menu. This time, we had sangria and mussels, which were a bit off the standard menu. Delicious! The service was friendly and fast. As mentioned, we're regulars. One of the few restaurants in the village.

Lovely place for lunch with a beer, friendly staff and a beautiful outdoor area

Good evening. The farm chicken could have been a bit bigger for €25.50. The service was also good and they didn't look away, which was great.

Last Friday evening, we had a reservation for 8:15 pm with four friends. Upon arrival, we were asked if we still wanted dinner. The kitchen was closing, and the chef was already cleaning up. Yes, because we had a reservation! The food was abysmal. A bowl of snotty beef stew (with bits of fat and sinew) and a bag of fries for €22. There was less than €5 worth of food on my plate. The waitress came to the table with a bucket and a cloth to ask if it was good. We were sitting outside on the terrace and were joined by a rather large rat. We pointed this out to the waitress, to which she replied, "Yes, we know, but luckily they're not inside yet." Uh, no, but we're sitting outside! We quickly paid the exorbitant bill and settled on another terrace in Barendrecht. What a huge disappointment!

We had a wonderful dinner at KEES! The stew was wonderfully tender and exquisitely flavorful! The cod fillet was also well-prepared, though a bit on the small side. The risotto was delicious and a generous plate! All in all, a wonderful meal! The staff is very friendly and helpful! I highly recommend it!

Always delicious food and a friendly atmosphere at Kees's. This time, it's a shame that at closing time, everyone is practically forced to leave. Understandably, the staff wants to go home, but in my opinion, they could be a bit friendlier. Otherwise, it's really great.

Had a delicious lunch, freshly baked brown bread with tasty carpaccio! Definitely recommended!

Today we had another delicious lunch at Kees, friendly staff. TOP.

We had a shared dinner but that was disappointing, more expensive, really long for the 3 courses and the choice was disappointing. The location outside is really good.

Wasn't great. Cod fillet was fried too long, and quite a few large bones in it. You pay 26.50 for that. Cesar salad had no dressing and there were a few large pieces of bread on it that were dry and toasted for too long. Dessert affogato with pistachio ice cream, little pistachio flavor in the ice cream.

Had a super delicious hamburger, friendly attentive staff, the only downside was that the fries were served in a tin bucket with rust in it

Nice place with good food, you can also take your dog here if you sit outside, very nice

Good food, great ambiance, less privacy, tables close together

Friendly staff and good service. Delicious food!

The quality of the food is excellent, the service is very friendly and the restaurant itself has a cozy atmosphere.

Had a great meal here And good service Beautiful location

For the second time I had lunch, I had an uitsmijter with everything. It was not bad but also nothing special, I would not want mushrooms on it next time. The last time I had a BLT. That was also okay in terms of taste. Only I wonder if the chef tries to eat this himself?! It was like they had built a tower with food! It was impossible for me to eat it normally. In my opinion they try too hard to make it look nice and the taste is a bit forgotten.

Had lunch here today. The food was unfortunately very disappointing. Caesar salad for 18 euros. I expect something. Unfortunately, wholesale junk. Parmesan shavings from a container from the supermarket. No anchovies. Some bacon dripping with fat thrown on top. Unimaginative and tasteless. No croutons but 2 small pieces of dried out bread on top. Even a self-respecting chef wouldn't be happy with this. Before paying, I had to go on a quest to find the staff. I eventually found all 4 of them in the back of the restaurant where they were watching internet videos. I thought the price-quality ratio was really worthless.

Very nice place and great service! Food is delicious!

Kees is a great place to be, plenty of choice. And very friendly staff. When the weather is nice, it's lovely to sit outside.

Without a reservation on this busy Saturday night we found a table, and then another table because it was a bit cozier. Had delicious glasses of wine (pino grigio and a tasty primitivo from Italy) then picked out two quick dishes (it was veeeery busy) a stew and a hamburger dish. Very good, taste was good, portions generous. We accidentally got an extra portion of fries :). Service was, despite the crowd, attentive and sharp and cheerfully friendly = compliment! Just good, we will definitely come back but then we will make a reservation ;).

Great restaurant to eat I had the BLT chicken which was very tasty the people next to me had a hamburger which was also tasty make sure it is not a smash burger. You can also park for free which is nice.

Very good service, food delicious but a bit limited. The quality is top-notch!

Had lunch yesterday at restaurant Kees, looked at the menu and thought to myself, this is quite pricey, but I still ordered the eggs scandinavian (the name doesn't fit me personally, I would personally call it eggs benedict with salmon). Does it arrive after not a very long time; I receive 1 thinly sliced ​​slice of bread with 2 poached eggs, 3 slices of smoked salmon, and cold hollandaise (weird that it is cold). It was so little and that for 16 euros. Afterwards I indicated to the service that it was really too little, then I got the response; yes I understand that. Then I was dumbfounded and didn't respond to it anymore. In short, far too little for a lot of money

I had a delicious meal there! The service was also quick and the food and drinks were also very fast and very tasty!

Had dinner there on Christmas Day, delicious a la carte. Great service and the food was great. 26/4 King's Day, again a delicious meal, spare ribs and ham were very good, dessert was a surprise and very tasty. Service was great again! Until next time.

Great restaurant, nice lunch. Very friendly staff.

Cosy, tasty food, quick service

The food was delicious, staff very good, what an improvement

Great nice restaurant with tasty food. Highly recommended.

Nice place, good atmosphere. Service was attentive. Food good but not outstanding. Beef stew with mainly threads and 2 small pieces of meat. A bit flat in taste, needed salt and pepper. Portion sufficient. Fries fine, quite small portion, no vegetables Some salad had to be ordered separately. All in all a fun thing to do. Price quality a bit on the high side.

For the money, very mediocre portions.

Delicious food, friendly employees, and a cozy restaurant. So recommended!!!

Super nice place! Price and quality match well with each other, the service is great and the dishes were well prepared. The menu is not very thick but the dishes on it were, as said, well prepared! Furthermore, you can put your electric car on the charger, but there are only 2 places, with public transport it is also easy to reach, a stone's throw from the metro, and by car you are also in the city of Rotterdam! Eetse!!

Last night we had dinner here with the family to celebrate my father-in-law's birthday, but unfortunately it was a complete disaster. The problems started with the starter: due to miscommunication, one of the six people at our table only received his dish when the rest had already finished eating. Then the vegan in our party got a “vegan” salad with egg with her vegan burger. As if that wasn't bad enough, four of the six main courses were cold. When we pointed this out to the staff, they took the plates back and “heated” them on something they called a hot plate. Unfortunately the food was still cold inside. Only after returning three times did we finally receive new dishes—until then we always received the same plates back, simply warmed up. This whole process took far too long, so almost everyone ended up having to eat separately. When the last two people finally got their food, the rest of the table had already finished. Until they had finally finished eating, the empty plates with leftover food remained on the table. Now it was winter, but if it had been summer, the restaurant would probably have been full of flies. Tasty… When we raised the issues with the manager we were not impressed with the response or knowledge of the staff. The chef didn't even dare to show his face. Instead of really looking for a solution, only excuses were given, and according to some employees this is happening often. Eventually some drinks were taken off the bill, but only because it was a birthday. The manager even indicated that under normal circumstances she would have simply canceled the bill, rather than attempting to resolve the issue in the first place. All in all a very disappointing experience. We won't be coming back here again.

Teleurstellende ervaring – hier komen we niet terug Afgelopen avond ben ik hier met mijn familie gaan eten om mijn verjaardag te vieren, maar helaas was het een enorme tegenvaller. De eerste problemen begonnen al bij het voorgerecht. Door een miscommunicatie kreeg één van ons zijn gerecht pas toen de rest al klaar was met eten. Vervolgens werd de veganist in ons gezelschap een “vegan” salade geserveerd, waar gewoon ei in zat. Daarna ging het van kwaad tot erger. Vier van de zes hoofdgerechten werden koud geserveerd. Toen we dit meldden, namen de medewerkers de borden mee en verwarmden ze deze op iets wat zij een “warme plaat” noemden. Helaas was het eten nog steeds koud van binnen. Pas na drie keer terugsturen kregen we eindelijk nieuwe gerechten—tot die tijd kregen we steeds dezelfde borden terug, simpelweg opgewarmd. Dit hele proces duurde zo lang dat bijna iedereen apart moest eten. Tegen de tijd dat de laatste twee personen hun maaltijd eindelijk kregen, was de rest van ons al lang klaar. Toch bleven de lege borden met etensresten op tafel staan tot iedereen klaar was. Toen we de situatie bespraken met de bedrijfsleidster, kregen we weinig begripvolle reacties. De chef-kok liet zich niet eens zien, en in plaats van een oplossing kwamen er alleen maar excuses. Een medewerker liet zelfs doorschemeren dat zulke problemen hier vaker voorkomen. Uiteindelijk werden er een paar drankjes van de rekening gehaald, maar alleen omdat het een verjaardag was. De manager gaf zelfs aan dat ze onder normale omstandigheden gewoon de rekening had geannuleerd, in plaats van überhaupt te proberen het probleem op te lossen. Kortom, een bijzonder teleurstellende ervaring. Dit was de eerste en meteen ook de laatste keer dat we hier hebben gegeten. Als de chef-kok wel met ons gesproken zou hebben hadden we misschien overwogen om nog een keer te gaan. Maar helaas, een echte chef praat wel met gasten.

Good food. Menu is not too big but plenty of tasty things.
