Lieve Lente in Centrum Oisterwijk

We had a very tasty meal in a nice atmosphere.

On our first visit, we ate inside. Good food. Friendly staff and a nice atmosphere. On our second visit, we only sat on the terrace and had a drink with some small snacks. Our little dog was also welcome on the terrace.

Friendly staff, nice ambiance, delicious food

We had a delicious lunch on the terrace yesterday. The menu was very kindly adapted for one of us with allergies. Very thoughtful! Furthermore, the food was delicious, including soup and seafood paella, and a strawberry dessert. The service was also attentive and friendly. In short, worth repeating!

We had a delicious meal with the four of us.

The food was perfect. The waitresses and waiter were really struggling with the heat as well.

We had a delicious meal and afterwards sat and chatted pleasantly over a tasty gin (alcohol-free) cocktail.

Enjoyed a delicious lunch on a cozy terrace in the center of Oisterwijk. Very friendly service.

Pleasant place for lunch and great quality food, good service

I especially liked that it was cozy at our table😂

Friendly staff, the food was okay. I wouldn't go there a second time.

It was very cozy & quite quiet. But the music made the atmosphere complete 👍🏽 The food was also very tasty, and certainly plenty of it! Our bellies were full!

Wide selection, fast service, the taste was good. Staff friendly.

Beautiful location, well-prepared food, efficient service, and a lovely terrace.

Nice location, pleasant to sit on the terrace. Friendly staff.

We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves at Lieve Lente. We were welcomed warmly and served courteously. My husband had unlimited spare ribs and they were delicious. Highly recommended. With delicious fries, salad, and 3 sauces. And I had an asparagus menu which was also super tasty. Compliments to the chefs. Highly recommended for dinner, and not only that, they also have tasty lunch dishes. And it is also a top location just for drinks. Thanks again for the delicious food and see you soon. Once again

We come here for lunch very regularly and it is always just as lovely. Knowledgeable staff, tasty dishes, good portions, and a super nice atmosphere!

Super nice place in Oisterwijk, delicious food for a fair price and friendly staff! Definitely highly recommended.

Planned a nice evening at Lieve Lente, but unfortunately, there was total chaos there. After waiting for over 1.5 hours, following the promise that it would arrive in 10 minutes, unfortunately still nothing. Other guests also had to wait a long time and/or were given the wrong plates. Left to go eat somewhere else. Too bad,

What they claim to be online is certainly true. Okay, to nitpick; a dollop of sauce too much, had to report it once for service... but what I love is that they immediately counter with the friendliest service, and that's how it should be! Oh yes, and the food was super tasty too!

The food was great, only one dish was less warm. Probably waited for the other one. The table location was a bit out of the way. Not really romantic.

Yes, the food was really top-notch. My son ordered spare ribs, my wife beef brisket, and I the chicken satay with extra-seasoned fries. It was truly exceptionally well prepared and really delicious.

We were in Oisterwijk for an overnight stay and were just looking for an affordable place to eat for Easter. We were pleasantly surprised by LieveLente; we took the spring menu and everything from starter to dessert was delicious. The service was fine and friendly. We were very satisfied.

Simply good and tasty food, attentive and polite service.

We had a delicious meal yesterday. When paying the bill, I mentioned that we had enjoyed our meal, with compliments to the chef. It turns out he's sitting at the bar. Haha... I give it a perfect 10. Thank you. See you soon!

Super nice location and friendly, relaxed staff. A warm atmosphere

Cozy terrace, friendly service, and a wide selection.

Every time we eat here, and that is quite regularly, the food is excellent! Cozy atmosphere and good staff. Top-notch, keep up the good work.

Very unfriendly staff. The blonde lady was also yelling at the staff inside. The food was not right. It was tasty though, and reasonably priced.

We ate here today; the food was delicious, the atmosphere nice, and the staff friendly. We will definitely come back here again.

We had a delicious meal!! The 3x3 menu was a big hit with our friends. We will definitely be back!

Very good tenderloin for a great price

The food was fantastic! The fish was perfect, as was the steak and risotto. And we're picky eaters ourselves. And the price was great too. The service was also very friendly and helpful. Really excellent!

The sole was completely overcooked, dry, and inedible. The crumble wasn't actually made with crumbs (it looked more like crumbs from a Bastogne cookie) and also contained some kind of mascarpone cream. We also saw a mouse running around, and when we mentioned it, the waitresses didn't seem particularly surprised 🤨

Yesterday, Christmas Day, at 4 p.m., we dined with your staff. Upon arrival, we wished them a Merry Christmas, which received absolutely no response. We were then seated in a corner near the entrance, where it was very drafty and cold. We mentioned this to the staff, and they replied, "It'll be warm in an hour because it'll be full." It wasn't even 15 degrees Celsius when we arrived. Your staff certainly didn't have any Christmas spirit! If this is what your restaurant strives for, then it was a great success!

Nice cup of coffee and tea, nice lady behind the bar, absolutely great

A bit of a noisy big table inside... But hey, you can't help that, can you? The food was good, and the autumn menu was very reasonably priced. Delicious!

We had a delicious lunch, both of us ordered the hamburger and fries. Highly recommended!

Very nice. Great lunch. Delicious coffee! And...friendly staff.

We've been coming to Lieve Lente for a long time. But for a while now, you get a shot glass of water with your wine. Before that, it was a regular glass. My feeling about this is contempt for your guests. A kind of mockery. Forcing people to buy a bottle of Spa. Look at your neighbor (where we've moved to as our permanent address, by the way). A perfectly normal glass of water (even with ice in warm weather). It costs nothing. It can be done that way. Again, you can even charge for a glass of water. But don't insult people by reserving a "thimbleful" of water.

Tasty fish and chips, fries a bit soggy.

Cozy terrace. Very friendly staff. Good value for money.

Had a wonderful time with friends. The summer menu was delicious. Generous portions. The quality and price were just right.

The food was delicious. The soup and fish salad were excellent. Highly recommended!

Delicious food! Highly recommended.

Super friendly staff ❣️Good food❣️Highly recommended❣️

Delicious food and great service.

Nice lunch, good location, friendly service

Lieve Lente, waar blijft mijn eten? Een vraag die ik mezelf te vaak heb gesteld in de twee uur dat ik aan mijn lege bord zat, met een nog legere maag. Ondertussen worstelde ik met de diepere vraag: 'waarom ben ik hier naar binnen gelopen?' Het menu is eenvoudig, maar niet op de trendy 'less is more'-manier, nee, helaas niet. Lieve Lente serveert een uiteenlopende variatie aan gerechten uit verschillende keukens, maar heeft alsnog geen enkel gerecht dat eruit springt. Dankzij mijn tafelgenoten heb ik verschillende gerechten kunnen proeven, maar niets was zo opmerkelijk als mijn teleurstelling. Ook zit er geen ziel in de keuken en het lijkt alsof er maar wat gedaan wordt met het eten. Het eten heeft weinig smaak en wordt met dezelfde liefde bereid als diepvriesmaaltijd. Verder zijn de porties klein. Je zal dit restaurant verlaten met ongeveer dezelfde leegte in je maag en ziel waar je het "restaurant" mee binnen bent gelopen. Alleen is jouw portemonnee ondertussen ook een stuk leger. En als kers op de taart, pasten de serveersters ook helemaal bij het geheel, want zij waren net zo smakeloos als het eten.

Cozy terrace with plenty of options! Delicious snacks and beers.

Very friendly service and coziness. The cappuccino is delicious. 👍

Zeer lekker gegeten op onze 38e trouwdag. Vriendelijk personeel en een leuke omgeving. We hebben op het terras tegen de gevel aan een heerlijke avond gehad met goede gerechten en heerlijke biertjes. Echt een aanrader.

Slechte, vieze, dure tent. Onaardig en arrogant personeel. Eten zat geen smaak aan. Kortom zeker niet aan te raden, ga hier niet heen om lekker te eten.

Great food, great service. We sat outside and enjoyed our dinner. Usually we don't sit outside due to the smoking and vaping. However the air was clean, no smoke, no vape. I don't know if this is normal for this restaurant or if we were just lucky, but it sure was nice to have dinner without all the smoke.

Too bad, I ordered a grilled cheese sandwich that was so hard around the edges you couldn't even cut it with a knife. Of course, I said something about it, and they said a grilled cheese sandwich should be hard around the edges. I told them not to be so hard and tapped my plate. "I'll pass it on," she said, but I didn't hear anything more. Bye dear Lente, there are plenty of places.

A wonderful discovery during our stay in Oisterwijk: good food (choices for all tastes), friendly service, a pleasant atmosphere, and reasonable prices. I highly recommend it.

Ongezellig personeel en voor kraanwater bij de koffie moet je betalen. Dat hoort echt niet. Misschien even toch nog wat horeca ervaring opdoen in een gastvrij professioneel restaurant.

The salmon was so overcooked it tasted like canned salmon. The vegetables and rosti rounds were a disgrace. Very poor quality for the price. Don't fall for it. Tourist trap!!!

Delicious food! Great atmosphere!

Very pleasant evening. Service was kind and nice Food was delicious

Top company, creative with food

Cozy cafe. We enjoyed a delicious meal on the covered terrace. Very friendly service.

A delicious meal, I was surprised, very good 10 out of 10 🇨🇴

Het twaalfuurtje vis was een zompige zooi op 'n te klein bord. En dan ook nog noorse garnalen die zijn al waterig, en nepkrabsalade ook. Dus het brood was ook zompig. Toen we vroegen of ze het brood niet beter apart kunnen serveren, snauwde ze terug dat ze het zo altijd deden. Veel geld voor een smerige lunch. Kritiek dat mag niet.

Enjoyed drinks and snacks on a rainy market day. Attentive service and a pleasant atmosphere. Good prices.

Our table was wobbly. This wasn't pleasant to eat in. The waiter refused to fix it, saying it was our own fault. We had moved the table. By placing a magazine under the legs, the table was stable again. However, upon leaving, we were met with a strong barrage of wind. You don't do that at home, and it's even worse. We no longer feel welcome. I hope the staff realizes there are other ways to do it. And that service is also important for the experience and the decision to return.

The bites did not seem homemade, but thawed and reheated.

The food was good, but the service was mediocre on Friday, July 6th. Like our neighbors, we had to wait a very long time for a glass of wine. It was a real shame if that only arrived after the food was finished. It also took a lot of effort to get the staff's attention several times (with one exception). A waitress was supposed to come back to help us, but we didn't see her again.

Cozy cafe, good food, where we have been coming for years now that the UK has allergies to meat, vegan options are also good and they are also tasty

Went here for dinner with my girlfriend on January 25, 2025. Food was good that evening and so was the atmosphere and service. But we were also there for a purpose. We were looking for a restaurant where we could have dinner with a small group after our wedding. And we went here on recommendation. And we liked it. So we reserved that same evening for our wedding day. They looked into the computer and it was possible. Emailed about it the same evening. Once again confirmation that it was possible. And then we emailed back and forth about the menu, in which the day we would come was mentioned several times. So we are completely happy. A month before we get married, the restaurant informs us that we cannot come. Because they are closed because they are having a staff outing because they have been around for 25 years. Have it and that whole day is already fully planned. He did ask his neighbors if we could come there. And in compensation we would like to offer the entire group a glass of cava to go with the wedding cake. Well intentioned. But we chose him because of the atmosphere in the restaurant and what was on the menu. And then we look at what his neighbors have on the menu. Then we have to say No to that. And yes, that cava. That's not really for us either. Fortunately, we have already found another restaurant. And we are going to make it a beautiful day. As people from dear Spring already wrote in the email to us. It's a good thing they found out a month in advance and not on the day itself. Because that will put a huge damper on the day. As if that wouldn't already be the case. Fortunately it has been resolved. But dear Spring doesn't have to count on me ever setting foot in there again.

Much too cold in the dining room. After dinner, quickly home. Just had dessert at home

Delicious food and drinks! Very cozy, good service....

A cozy catering establishment in the heart of Oisterwijk. Friendly staff and the food is also excellent.

Leuk restaurant in het centrum met terras en aardige bediening. Lekker eten maar wel erg grote porties maar ja dat is bourgondisch Brabant he. Heeft verwarmt terras.

Years ago it was good, now it's very disappointing. The kitchen is closed at 8:00 PM, so you can no longer order anything from the drinks menu. At 9:15 PM they announce that the last drink can be ordered. Then at 9:30 PM they come with the receipt themselves because they are closing. So an evening of drinks is not an option!

Disinterested staff, and the burger was so raw you could have turned it into meatballs.

Ok food. 1.25 for a glass of water is just nonsense (and not hospitable). That could easily be better!

The food was excellent and the atmosphere is nice and cozy. Two of the waitresses (especially the older ones) were friendly, as they should be, but the two younger ones were very unfriendly; verging on rude at checkout. Shame.

Bad kitchen, super salty, hardly any choice for vegetarians, glass of tap water €1.25, inhospitable, mainly no to our requests and bitchy responses. We were not allowed to take a seat at an unreserved spacious table because we were not more than 2 people, even though we had bags and a dog with us. We were put at a cramped table overlooking the toilet. Later in the evening there were clearly unreserved guests sitting at those tables. Very bad experience, anything but sweet........

Eten veel te zout, ongastvrije reactie op elke vraag, kraanwater €1,25, prettig gelegen ongereserveerde tafels daar mochten wij niet plaats nemen zgn omdat wij niet met meer dan 2 waren. Wij mochten met ons gezicht naar de toilet kijken terwijl er nog een hond bij was. Later op de avond zaten er gewoon wel duidelijk ongereserveerde gasten met z'n 2en aan deze tafels. Wij waren bijna opgestaan en weggegaan hebben spijt dat we zijn blijven zitten. Alles bij elkaar een slechte ervaring. Lieve Lente wat ons betreft alles behalve lief.

Very tasty food, nicely decorated. A bit brown café-like, but certainly cozy in appearance. Nice service, and extremely tasty French onion soup. Highly recommended.

Wat een gezellige, sfeervolle plek om te gaan eten. Heel vriendelijk personeel en heerlijk gegeten. Alles zag er top uit!

Smooth service, good food, excellent chardonay, nice atmosphere. Not great, just good.

Het personeel was vrij gezellig, maar het eten is smakeloos ik was niet tevreden. De visgerechten waren vrij droog bijna niet door te slikken en de vleesgerechten waren ook niet al te best. De tent was best sfeerloos.

Nice location and good food. Unfortunately we had to wait too long for our food due to a shortage of staff. Shame.

Er zat een groot gezelschap binnen dus we moesten lang wachten voordat we konden bestellen. Uiteindelijk was het eten matig. Varkenshaas die niet gaar en niet mals was, romige knoflooksaus die echt niet lekker was, onduidelijke ondergrond onder de paprikaprut en half zachte frites.

We didn't eat badly, nor did we eat very well. Spare ribs mediocre. Fries mediocre. But do years go out to eat twice a month? I am 55 years old and it is the first time in my life that I have experienced such grumpy, rude staff. Would you like something to drink, she asked with a thunderstorm in her face, came boy, would you like something to eat, followed by a deep sigh, I started laughing myself, first thinking hidden camera and fawlty towers... my husband replied, well, if that's allowed. Know staff is difficult but this?! Not worth discussion or time. This is simply not possible/allowed and never.

What a disappointment. The location is fine. But how dare you charge €1.75 for a glass of tap water when more than enough is ordered. More than scandalous. I'll never go there again

Delicious food. Great and friendly staff. Highly recommended.

In my opinion, restaurant 'Lieve Lente' is seriously overrated, some background about a recent visit: - A glass of tap water for an order over €25 costs €1.75. - Service only responds to very loud shouting (gestures, friendly questions, etc. are not noticed) from me, but also from others. - The table next to us dropped a container, they cleaned it up themselves. - 6 frozen prawns in oil for €2 per prawn.......

Nice place, excellent service, delicious food.

I regularly visit Lieve Lente. Good price-quality ratio and always delicious food. Both lunch and dinner. Friendly staff, a bit nonchalant but that's fine by me.

Prima zaakje. Groot terras. Prima service. We hebben hier geluncht en alles was prima. Verwacht niets culinairs . Het dorpje is heel erg leuk en gezellig. En druk ook doordeweeks.

Always delicious and very pleasant.

When the rosé was served, the wrong bottle was brought. This was more expensive than the one we ordered. The more expensive one was included in the bill afterwards. Later it turned out that there were also two limochello on the bill that we had not ordered.

Good price-quality ratio. Friendly staff...

Very nice and friendly help, nice lunch

Nice place, friendly staff. Food is very good price/quality. No special menu but classic dishes.

Excellent restaurant/bar near the centre of town. We had a friendly and warm reception and the rest of the service was excellent. Food choice was varied and our meals were both tasty. Would definitely visit again.

Friendly staff, cozy terrace, inside it was comfortably furnished. The food tasted great and came in nice portions. Unfortunately, we were just not lucky with the steak (chamois/fat/not medium). The other starters, mains and desserts were great.
