Oma Jo's in Binnenstad-Noord

I was told about the chaos when taking the order, but then it got worse. Drinks wrong, was brought in 5 parts, so not everyone had something to drink in time. The owner is nice, but likes to talk about herself.

After being ignored for 10 minutes on the fairly quiet terrace, we went one door further.

Oma Jo’s is a sweet family owned business. The staff are super friendly and fun to talk to. They serve traditional Dutch bar food with a beautiful scenic twist. I can’t wait to go back to hang out with the whole crew and share a beer, cigarette, and bitterballen over a cacophony of laughter .🍻 Bonus Points: the owner speaks four languages and her son is a true people person with a good laugh always in the works

A super friendly environment with globally minded people looking to celebrate the simpler things at a fair price. The whole staff is super friendly and helpful. The owner is a super intelligent, globally-minded, and conversational person (fluent in 4 languages), and her son is also a super people-oriented person with a great sense of humor and personable conversation. I look forward to coming back with my fiancé after our move - it will definitely become a local watering-hole for us if we’re in the area. 😉

Enjoy sitting on the terrace with a local Leiden beer. We were helped very friendly and with attention!

Very friendly people, Unfortunately the food is bad, very bad. Artisanal food cannot be served by serving a croquette from an airfryer on a sandwich from a supermarket. So if you go for coziness. Go ahead. If you go for food. Walk on.

The fresh ginger tea tasted of nothing. Indicated and received a new glass, but it was no better and left alone. Had to pay 9 euros for 2 teas.

Two croquettes with bread for 12 euros. It looks and tastes like two Albert Heijn weekend rolls with a large bitterbal on each. Absolutely ridiculous. The brie roll is soggy and tasteless. In short, too much money for what you get.

We order 2 rosé wines. But when paying we had to pay for the other wine (€6.50) instead of the rosé house wine (€4.75). We had not mentioned which wine we wanted, they just assumed that we wanted the more expensive wine. Otherwise we should have said that?? According to the owner that was completely normal?? We could get a €2 discount, but we declined. In our opinion, this is not the way things are and you should always ask the guest which wine!! Too bad, but we won't be going here anymore!

Food was not just snack bar quality. Service and atmosphere was good.

We went for a hot drink that came later as well, friendly staff with slow service. Nachos also served in a different way. While it wasn't busy we had to wait a long time for those nachos

nice terrace, friendly stuff 👌🏼

In the city's heart, I found a delightful café where warmth and friendliness greeted me at the door. Its cozy ambiance provided a serene retreat. The staff's personal touch made the experience unique, enhancing the charm of my simple yet exquisite hot chocolate. Amidst comfortable settings, the café offered a variety of board games, fostering a sense of community. This place isn't just a café, but a warm haven I eagerly look forward to revisiting. It’s a memorable spot, now a favorite in my travel diary, awaiting my return.

During my latest visit to the city center, I stumbled upon this gem of a café that instantly won my heart. From the moment I walked in, the staff greeted me with such warmth and friendliness, making me feel like a valued guest rather than just another customer. The atmosphere inside is a perfect blend of cozy and lively, with a decor that invites you to relax and unwind. What really sets this café apart is its personal touch. The staff takes the time to get to know you, offering recommendations tailored to your tastes. Whether you're there for a quick coffee or a leisurely meal, they ensure your experience is memorable. The food and drinks menu is delightful, with each item prepared to perfection. But the highlight for me was the collection of cool board games available for patrons. It's a fantastic way to spend an evening, whether you're alone or with friends. I've bookmarked this café in my profile and it's definitely on my list of must-visit places whenever I'm back in town. It's not just a café, it's an experience - one that leaves you feeling welcomed and cherished.

Cosiest place, loved the Christmas vibe

Super friendly owner and Christmas vibe with great chat ❤️ I recommend

We had an aperol and some beers on the terrace, very nice staff!

I had a delightful experience at Oma Yo’s cafe. The warm ambiance created a welcoming atmosphere, and the owner's kindness added a personal touch to the visit. A charming spot for a relaxing time.

The atmosphere in this place is incredible, it's such a wonderful location and my friend and I had a great time. The food and the custom cocktails are amazing and it's definitely a place I'll be returning to next time I'm in the area!

Afgelopen Donderdag na een dagje Leiden hebben mijn moeder en ik een heerlijk broodje gegeten bij ‘Oma Jo’s’! Echter in de trein kwamen wij er achter dat er i.p.v. twee… drie broodjes op de rekening stonden… dat viel wat tegen! Harald Visser

Very basic food, nothing special. Straight out of the supermarket, though 3x the price.

Great hostess and host. Food is beautifully presented and soooo good. Great prices, wines and beer. The outside terrace sits on the Oude Vest canal and surrounds Leiden’s City Central

Warm, welcoming, and inviting atmosphere with amazing service! The owners go out of their way to make you feel at home.

Un lugar muy acogedor. Los dueños muy amables. Tomamos un brunch muy rico

Wir waren hier zum Mittagessen und waren mehr als zufrieden! Durch die Freundlichkeit der Besitzer, fühlt man sich sehr wohl!

Gewoon doen. Gezellig en leuke babbel met oma jo. Lekkere californische wijntjes

Süße kleine Bar mit hausgemachtem Essen (herzhaft und süß). Getränkepreise auch völlig in Ordnung. Schöne Lage und sehr freundliches Besitzerehepaar.
