Pannekoeken Kasteel in Wijk 01 Noordwijk Aan Zee

Today we had a very disappointing experience. We had to wait 40 minutes for a sandwich, even though the terrace was only occupied by about eight tables. We weren't helped until 15 minutes later, and the service seemed chaotic, inexperienced, and disinterested. For my roommate (vegan, with allergies, and a vegetarian), there was absolutely no alternative available. The staff said they would look into what was available, but after 25 minutes, we were told they couldn't offer anything. No one seemed to know exactly what was on the menu or what the ingredients were. When the food finally arrived, it was mediocre – definitely not worth the long wait. We even ended up going to the döner restaurant because my table companion couldn't eat anything there. All in all, a chaotic, unfriendly, and disappointing experience. It's a shame, because the location had potential, but the service and food left a lot to be desired.

I had a coffee and a toasted sandwich here on the terrace. Nothing special, you get what you ask for and no fuss, which is probably why everything is reasonably priced. The toasted sandwich was nice and fresh and crispy, the coffee was hot, and the service was friendly. Highly recommended.

Two weeks ago, I enjoyed the 2 for 1 high wine package. As a native of Noordwijk, I'd regularly passed by this location, but had never been inside for a meal or a drink. This offer was my first time inside, and what a treat! It's beautifully decorated, with a lovely, relaxed yet luxurious atmosphere. The wines and, of course, the food were fantastic. Next time I pass by, I'll definitely be tempted to pop in this time!

unprecedented atmosphere, glass is never empty so excellent service

I was standing in Piet's Voortuin at 4:58 in the morning... It wasn't open last Sunday. 1 star.
