Pollo in Wijk 00 Het Oude Land en duingebied

Our last evening of the summer holidays at the island of Texel could be better for the food. This was absolutely lovely. Kip eigenwijs and cauliflower bites were delicious. Service was very friendly and the owner was happy to hear that the pork cheeks were delicious. Thanks for the perfect evening

Great chicken! We enjoyed it very much.

Exactly what you come for! A wonderful atmosphere, a delicious bottle of wine, and delicious chicken! The owner and chef take their time with everyone. It seems simple, but you rarely see that anymore. I'll definitely be back :)!

Unfortunately, the restaurant was very stuffy, and it took a very long time for them to come and take our order. One staff member was very irritated and unfriendly. It seemed they were very busy. We understand that, but it's no reason to treat your guests this way. Fortunately, the food was phenomenally delicious, and based on my friendliness (which the waiter could learn a thing or two from), I'll give the restaurant 4 stars. Even the chef came to ask if everything was to their liking, which was very polite. The food made up for a lot!🍗🐓

We had a fantastic meal tonight; everyone loved all the delicious chicken dishes we picked up. Super tender and very flavorful. We'll be back soon. And it was nice talking to you!

Wonderful place to eat! The food is freshly made every day, incredibly delicious and flavorful. The staff is super friendly and helpful. The food was served quickly. We'll definitely be back!

The food was fantastic! (We went there because of the many good reviews here.) Of course, everyone experiences it differently... But we loved it; the flavor of the herbs was truly infused into the chicken! How delicious is that... ♡ With these chickens, you really don't need any extra sauce; the chicken is so flavorful. There are many variations of chicken dishes, so the choice is endless. I definitely love chicken, but I was disappointed that there wasn't a version with chicken breast (everything is chicken thighs). I'm not a fan of chicken thighs. So, I chose the half chicken, and yes, it was fantastic! And they definitely take allergies or specific food preferences into account. (IF YOU JUST LET US KNOW IN ADVANCE.) Truly fantastic, that's how it should be. 4 stars for the outdoor setting; it could be a bit more inviting 😉 But otherwise, I can DEFINITELY RECOMMEND @pollodekoog. * Delicious food! *

We got takeout. It was truly delicious. Half a chicken with house herbs. Definitely one of the tastiest chickens I've ever had. Super flavorful and juicy. Highly recommended, the chicken is wonderfully crispy. And all that with real fries and homemade mayo, mmm. Any self-respecting restaurant should simply order real fries. That's the icing on the cake, heh heh heh. The coleslaw is also very tasty. I normally skip salads. This one was gone. The owner is a nice, friendly guy. Definitely worth ordering again.

Sometimes you have one of those moments... when you forget everything around you and just sit there, gorging yourself, encouraged by a Corn Wolf and my other half (with clear, cold water) who was silently undergoing the same adventure. Delicious! Pulled pork chicken burger and chicken satay with fries and truffle mayonnaise. A very friendly and attentive waitress. But unfortunately, I missed out on the pollo dessert with farm boys. Due to the limited staff, the chicken had the chance to settle in so much that the craving disappeared. A very satisfying feeling, though. Top quality!

Do I order chicken when I eat out? No, I don't... The rest of the family wanted to try Pollo, though, and my preconceptions had to be discarded. Because apparently, there's also chicken next level... The food was delicious (including the dessert). The service was friendly and professional; even the chef came to ask how you enjoyed it. Upon leaving, a friendly "goodbye" from the owner... a top-notch place.

Best chicken in the world We were at Pollo last night and, just like three years ago, were absolutely thrilled. The croquettes for the appetizer are delicious, and the chicken is truly a dream. Tender and perfectly balanced in flavor. We immediately reserved another table. The service is very friendly. I would recommend making a reservation.

We just had a delicious meal at Pollo! We read the reviews first, and the (funny) comments from the owner and the reviews of the delicious food drew us in, and we don't regret it. The owner seems a bit grumpy at first, but he turns out to be a very nice man! The kids had chicken wings with fries, and my son thought they were the best he'd ever had. The chicken of the day, burger, sandwiches, and nachos were also delicious. The portions were generous, and the waitress was very friendly! We'll definitely be back 👍🏻

I had a delicious meal at Pollo for the second time tonight! I definitely recommend it. They also took my nut and peanut allergy into account. The food is delicious, and the staff and owner are very friendly and clearly enjoy and passionate about their work.

Best prepared chicken I've ever had! I also ordered a few sides to share, and they were delicious. I'll definitely be back!

We had a wonderful meal. The staff at the restaurant were very friendly. We enjoyed it so much that we're going back tomorrow!

The food was delicious! The chicken with brie was delicious. The nachos as an appetizer are also highly recommended.

We had a very good meal (half chicken with Brie and cranberries, and a pulled chicken burger, served with sweet potatoes and romaine lettuce). Everything was delicious and plentiful. For dessert, the "chocobar" was surprising (also very good). We ordered a chai latte, but instead received an iced matcha latte (which was also very good) that we didn't have to pay for. When we were there, there was a group making a lot of noise, but it wasn't the restaurant's fault.

Cozy atmosphere, friendly service, and delicious food. Definitely worth it.

We ate here for the first time today and what can we say, we would gladly go back

Very friendly service, great food, and something for vegetarians too. Always happy to come back! 🥰

A very good restaurant in De Koog. I had delicious chicken dishes at an affordable price. The menu offers plenty of flexibility in what you can order, and there are even non-chicken options (although the chicken is excellent!). The owner was very friendly, and the seating was plenty spacious. All in all, this is my favorite restaurant in De Koog.

Recommended! Very tasty food here. Surprising flavour combinations. Also various home-made additions. The chef clearly loves his job. This in combination with the warm and knowledgeable service ensures that you will gladly come back here again.

Very good chicken and super friendly staff in combination with a relaxed atmosphere. A recommendation for a nice dinner!

Ate here a few weeks ago with 3 children and a few adults. Excellent and worth repeating, just like the service of the young lady who was also very nice to the children. In contrast to the gentleman (owner?), where it could all have been a bit more spontaneous that evening; after all, a smile costs nothing. As for the food; book immediately, so keep it up. But appearance in the broadest sense of the word is also important and for us also to possibly come back a second time

Thank you so much for a wonderful evening. The food was excellent! The best chicken I've had in a long time. I would come back in a heartbeat! The vegetarian starter, the baked cauliflower, was also very tasty. Thanks to the young lady for the friendly service and to the chef for the recommendation and your trust (our card didn't work when paying, so we had to go to the nearest ATM).

Nasty guy ... Unfriendly, brrr I will definitely not eat there again if I see him there ..while 2 years ago we were treated so friendly, had nice conversations with a young man in the service.

Very good chicken salad and a large portion that's filling 👍😁. On the recommendation of the friendly waitress, I also tried dessert. It was also delicious and well worth it 😋 thanks for the tip 👍 generally very friendly service from everyone. I was there last year and plan to go back next year.

Top restaurant! Friendly welcome, nice lady in service very friendly The food was delicious, so delicious that we picked up a chicken the next day! Everything fresh from the mayo to the apple sauce! Delicious a real recommendation!!

Fried chicken taken to a new level. Never had better! Always happy to go back.

Had a great meal at Pollo in De Koog! What a wonderful surprise! The food was really delicious, with the corn on the cob as the absolute standout – they were truly delicious. Everything fresh, well-seasoned and beautifully served. What also stood out was the friendly and hard-working staff. You can tell that they really do their best to keep everyone happy, and they do so with a smile. The atmosphere is relaxed and hospitable, exactly what you are looking for after a day on Texel. We will definitely come back here! Highly recommended if you are in De Koog and fancy a tasty, well-prepared meal.

Very cozy restaurant with real fresh quality products. Friendly staff. Recommended bread with spread as a starter. Main courses definitely worth an 11. I had the pull chicken burger and my wife the pull chicken salad. The sweet potato bravas came with a sauce that was too spicy for my wife but perfect for me. The apple compote was perfect and also recommended. Unfortunately we didn't have dessert because we were really FULL. Thank you for this excellent evening and food. We will definitely come back to eat here. It will probably be a day trip but it is definitely worth it!!!!!!

In itself a nice cozy place and we enjoyed ourselves. Ordered the satay twice, where the fries were really overcooked. The satay sauce was a bit spicy. Only when paying the bill they ask if everything was to your liking. I think that if that had been asked earlier we could have given our opinion sooner. Nevertheless, the nice man who eventually helped us was able to reduce the bill a bit, which we appreciated. In short, good food - really - but you don't get a second impression on a first visit.

Went here for dinner based on the reviews. The tea towels on which the cutlery is placed are striking. Strange to me, and after the waitress explained, my partner and I had something to talk about. Excellent menu and something for everyone. Ordered chicken thigh satay with fries and homemade mayonnaise. The plate was neatly presented and the fries were served separately. The satay sauce was too spicy for me, but tastes differ. The fries were so hard that I almost broke my teeth on them. In between, they didn't ask if everything was to my liking, otherwise I would have definitely said so. It was busy and very noisy. When I had finished eating, the waitress came to ask if the food tasted good. Indicated that the fries were much too hard and she said that it was because of the homemade herbs that were on top. So they didn't listen well to what was said. The owner came over and I expressed my dissatisfaction about the fries. He immediately said he would take the fries off the bill. Excellent solution. I also said that the satay sauce was too spicy for me, but indeed, tastes differ. My partner went to pay and the fries and my satay were taken off the bill. It wasn't necessary and I thanked him for the goodwill. That was definitely a plus.

Addendum: We were the first in the restaurant and there was no one else there. So we would have had more than enough space; that excuse doesn't hold water. Furthermore, there is only one vegetarian dish, and that is the burger. If they aren't aware of that, they should rethink their menu these days. Our main reason for leaving was the abysmal and disrespectful treatment from the manager and her server, who couldn't have reacted more disgustedly and annoyed. Their reaction perfectly illustrates why you shouldn't engage in direct discussion with such people, especially when you're on vacation. If you're treated like that for simply being there, then I don't want to know how such people react to face-to-face criticism. You can truly do without that on vacation. Last but not least, their treatment of guests has been criticized many times in the reviews; a little self-reflection never hurts anyone! I've rarely experienced anything so unfriendly! The manager immediately told us to leave the stroller at the other end of the restaurant. We immediately felt uncomfortable and unwelcome, so we left the restaurant immediately.

No chicken seen but we didn't come for the pollo either. Our arrows were set on the tiramisu. The owner didn't fail at all with this seemingly simple but for the connoisseur treacherous task. A bit pricey but ultimately worth every penny. This gives confidence to also try the chicken on a possible next visit

The food is delicious and of a high standard, and the exceptionally friendly and attentive service is particularly noteworthy. Highly recommended. Reservations recommended.

Pollo – absolutely brilliant! I was at Pollo in the Koog today, and let me tell you: I'm absolutely thrilled! The staff is super friendly and relaxed – you immediately feel at home. The pulled chicken burger was simply amazing – juicy, deliciously seasoned, simply perfect. For starters, we had the pulled chicken tacos – also really tasty and beautifully presented. The portions are large, so you'll definitely be full. They also offer a really good selection of beers, which rounds off the whole experience perfectly. Everything was spotlessly clean, which isn't something to be taken for granted. In conclusion: Everything is just perfect here – food, service, atmosphere. I'll definitely be back!

A must go! Amazing food for a fair price and a great service! We arrived late, but we were welcomed anyway. The chicken was amazing, and the service was warm, funny, and sincere. I would suggest going to anyone. 5+ start because the tiramisù was something else, one of the best we've had in a restaurant.

New to me in De Koog (haven't been to Texel for 4 years), but what a success!!! Pulled chicken burger is amazing, the tent is cheerfully and cozily decorated and the service is perfect.

The warm welcome from the chef. The beautiful ambiance and the imaginative, freshly prepared dishes – everything superb and delicious. The creative side salad – prepare to be surprised. It tastes good too :-)

We didn't think the service was that great. My chicken was OK, but I thought it was a bit underseasoned. My wife's veggie burger was great.

Ate at Pollo today. Half a chicken, Indian style. The meat was tender and juicy, and the flavor was outstanding. It was truly the best chicken I've ever eaten. Simply amazing. The salad had a fantastic dressing. Amazing.

One of the most delicious chicken I have eaten. Simply delicious without any fuss!

For us the first time, but certainly not the last. Nice restaurant in de Koog. Nice atmosphere and warm welcome. Friendly service and the homemade croquettes were a tasty starter. Main course the Piri piri chicken and the pulled chicken burger were very tasty. Various beers on tap. Good, fun and tasty!

Very chill chicken. Friendly people. Half Indian chicken recommended.

Everything was amazing! We had BBQ chicken, Cod, and Cauliflower. They were all unbelievably good.

If you like chicken, you're in good hands here!

What a nice restaurant! First plus: dogs are allowed. More importantly: the food is delicious and the service is great! The owner is passionate about his business and the staff is friendly. We had brie from the oven beforehand: delicious! As a main course we had the Oriental chicken and the Stubborn chicken with nduja. Tender, flavorful and really well seasoned. I would make the crossing to Texel more often just to eat here.

Great host, great food and great terrace, thank you 🤩

Excellent chicken. Mega tender, juicy and really super tasty. Great atmosphere inside, we opted for take-away. Good service, in our opinion the best take-away on Texel.

An absolute must visit on Texel. The food is so tasty, get a kippeling with some beers, it will be worth it The chicken is crispy and fresh, the fries are properly made with a sprinkle of spices and the salad is flavourful and diverse. Portions are of a good size and not too expensive

Just great. We have been going there ever since we were there for the first time. Food, beers and service perfect. Fresh, perfectly seasoned; chapeau

Delicious food and more than enough. Nachos pulled chicken, chicken thigh satay and pulled chicken burger were delicious! We were planning on having dessert, but we were so full that we didn't get around to it. Which means we will have to come back again to give other dishes a chance :-)

Very good restaurant in the heart of De Koog. Service, ambience and food are top. Be sure to try the half chicken with herbs and the cauliflower bites.

There were 6 of us eating at Pollo. The food was very, very tasty and I can particularly recommend Pollos advocaat. The delicious free-range chicken was juicy and the seasoning was great. The host was funny, direct and quick. I'm happy to give this 5 stars. VG from Cologne

Very tasty chicken. Super tender and nicely seasoned. The soup is also recommended. Young, but extremely friendly staff. The owner also regularly checks whether everything is still as desired.

Delicious dinner tonight. We walked in when it was actually already full, but a spot was immediately made for us. Food was superb and the service even better. Definitely recommended, we will be back!

Pollo is right on all sides! The concept has been implemented very well. The food is delicious, the interior is very cozy and the owner is a nice and pleasant man!! After the delicious chicken, eating dessert is also worth it ;)

Yesterday the three of us went to Pollo without a reservation and were lucky that there was still a table available for us. I chose the steak version without asking what was behind it. "Courage" sometimes pays off, I was surprised with a dream of meat, more tender than tender, perfectly fried and infinitely delicious 😍. I don't want to reveal any more, try it yourself. I would eat there again, highly recommended

Before we left, we saw that the special dish was fish, so we were not mistaken. Whether they sell fish or not, your fries just tasted like seafood! I didn't go to the wrong restaurant — the owner even had the Pollo restaurant logo, with the chicken, tattooed on his arm. We came to eat with the whole family. The food was fine. We ordered soft drinks, but the glasses came without ice and lemon. Furthermore, I hate fish, but the fries tasted like fish from the first bite - they are probably prepared together with fried fish. If someone eats a strict vegetarian diet, that is a real problem.

Didn't feel welcome Way too expensive

We were here for lunch. I had the pulled chicken burger with fries and my wife had the pulled chicken on bread. Both dishes were super fresh and beautifully prepared! The meat was very tasty. The pickled onions were amazing. I really enjoyed it here. The portion size was plenty. The boss, well I assume we were served by the boss, was very nice and friendly! It's definitely not the last time I've been here!👍🏻

Very appealing ambience, ... all dishes of the finest quality, ... very a

In one word. DELICIOUS.😋 Delicious food, the Nachos as a starter are recommended.

We had dinner there last night. Service was great and the chicken was super tasty 😋

Delicious chicken eaten in a different way. Delicious juicy chicken and great service!

Wonderful chicken restaurant! We ate the classic and the lemon/butter. Super tasty and well seasoned. The baked potato is also recommended.

Fantastic chicken restaurant! Great service and delicious food! Highly recommended!!

It's Chicken what it is, but incredibly tasty, time and time again!

Ate here for the first time. Cosy, you immediately feel at home. Food was perfect. Compliments! We recommend it to everyone and, when we are back on Texel, we will definitely come back.

Pollo is one of those restaurants that makes you say, "Do you remember when we ate there? It was delicious." Just a sincere and honest place. Food is made with attention and quality, this quality is also reflected in the decoration of the restaurant!

Ate here with my family last Saturday. In one word, great! Hospitable, everything we took was prepared with love. Host is really a host who takes good care of his guests. Recommended!

When I think of Texel, I think of Pollo. Been twice now and the food was delicious both times. The owner(?) makes it a party, so you don't just come for the delicious food, but also for the excellent atmosphere. The menu is not very extensive, but everything on it is equally tasty. Also not unimportant, there is no shortage of good wine and beer. Highly recommended, provided you like chicken of course😉.

We picked up delicious chicken and chicken satay today. Delicious fresh apple compote. We really enjoyed it. Very good flavors and attractively presented.

Twice on Texel, twice at Pollo. A very pleasant surprise the first time, and still just as delicious upon return. Nice atmosphere, very friendly service (thanks for all the photos!) and delicious food. We will definitely come back next time on Texel!

Delicious food, definitely worth repeating.

Cozy restaurant with cheerful and very nice staff. Ordered half a chicken twice, in combination with fries and kippeling. Everything was very tasty, the 'nduja chicken is definitely recommended! Compliments to the chef and staff. The only 'downside' would be that the chicken is not local, which could be a nice bonus for a chicken restaurant on Texel, but with this delicious taste that is actually not a problem ;-).

Very tasty food, plates are nicely laid out. Friendly owner. Recommended!

Super tasty chicken for a competitive price. Very creative dishes and friendly staff

We enjoyed this restaurant during our trip to Texel and we decided to visit again before heading home. The food is very delicious and freshly made when you order it as we see it getting roasted from our seats. A great value for the price! The service was quick, attentive, and welcoming, even with an infant in our group, which we really appreciated. For food, the Piri Piri Chicken stood out if you enjoy spicy dishes, while my husband particularly liked the ‘Nduja. Both were well-prepared and flavorful. It’s a spot I’d happily recommend and would visit again when in the area. A reliable choice for good food and friendly service.

As always, it was super delicious! The chicken was well seasoned and tender, the side dishes were tasty and more than enough. The staff is also very nice and cooperative. Until next time!

Thank you for this nice evening Will definitely come back

Delicious chicken, nice and tender and well seasoned. We had Eigenwijs, chicken with prawns, luckily half of it because it was quite filling. We will definitely come back here again.

The chicken is delicious and the staff is friendly. It's been my second time there (I went two years ago as well) and both times were great.

We had a delicious meal in Pollo tonight. Surprising cockles as a starter and delicious chicken dishes plus a delicious dessert. Thank you for the hospitable, friendly welcome.

We stopped at Pollo after our walk on the beach with our two dogs. The dogs were no problem and we were able to enjoy wonderful chicken. An absolute “to do” for all chicken lovers. Highly recommended.

Price performance ratio is underground! How can you justify such prices for a meal like this? 15€ for half a (dry) chicken - without fries, without sauce, without anything! The taste was absolutely 0815 and the meat was far too dry! Then the service...an older gentleman served us (glasses, white beard, half-bald). unfriendly, intrusive, cheeky and disrespectful. We were so stupidly insulted by the gentleman because we just sat down at a table after no waiter came. Especially since at first we thought that we were simply approached by some confused customer, as the gentleman had a very unkempt appearance and was still wearing some kind of clothing from which one could have guessed that he was an employee. Just unprofessional!!! I have never felt SO UNCOMFORTABLE in a restaurant, or should we call it a snack bar, because when it comes to food, it is that and NOTHING more! Actually we should have gotten up and left, I have no idea why we didn't just do that. Probably because we were so shocked and offended. Afterwards we went to a pizzeria, because these measly, overpriced, laughable portions just don't make you full! So we can NOT RECOMMEND THE SNACK! WORST “restaurant” visit of my life.

These guys deserve way more guests!

Opted for the takeaway option and did not disappoint! Food was great, chicken was very tender, juicy and taste and the side dishes were also great. Everything was properly wrapped and ready to eat. While waiting for the food, we saw nothing but happy faces in a full house. Will come here again next time we visit Texel!

Every time we come to Texel, we have a nice meal at Pollo. Well-cared for, tasty and attractive. Definitely recommended! We will be back soon!

Had a delicious meal with my family! Chicken was delicious. Highly recommended to visit here. Owner was super friendly and so was the rest of the person. Until next time Vincent! 😊

Fantastic Service. The owner knows his business and food is great. Every star deserved.

After a number of years I went back to eat at Pollo de Koog. The chicken still tastes great. But what happened... The chicken now costs €27 and when paying it turns out that for the bowl of fries and the raw vegetables you have to pay €4.50 twice. Well, then you're going to lose stars with me.

Once again a delicious meal, casual informal atmosphere, price/quality very good! And then we ended our last weekend in October here. Another delicious meal, half Indian chicken. God, how delicious. Come 2025 and have a nice meal here again. 🤗🤪

A very nice and cozy restaurant with top quality food and very child-friendly! An owner who knows how to create a wonderful moment for your guests! Until next time, when we can enjoy Texel again!

Very tasty chicken. The chickens have a wonderful taste.

These people make really good chicken, it was delicious and everything was very tasty👌🏻

When you say chicken, you say Pollo. A little bit hidden at almost the end of the shopping street. The design is effective. A restaurant with a semi-open kitchen and a neatly dressed kitchen staff. The service is friendly and attentive. I have eaten here twice now and now know that if I want to eat chicken, I just have to go here. The chicken livers are highly recommended as a starter. A beautiful and tasty dish. Surprisingly the gingerbread at the bottom of the plate. This absorbs the red port sauce nicely and gives the dish extra flavor. The chicken soup is served in a special way. A plate with the necessary ingredients in the middle and the broth is poured from a kettle onto the plate at the table. If you like it spicy, take the chicken piripiri as a main course. The Indian spiced chicken is also tasty. You can choose from half or a whole chicken. You must order side dishes separately. If you don't do this, you only eat chicken! For dessert, Pollo's eggnog is highly recommended. A beautiful dessert with cookie crumble at the bottom of the glass, delicious ice cream, farm boys, eggnog and whipped cream. In addition to the menu, they currently had a mocha/caramel mess with beachcomb and ice cream. I didn't actually find the beachcomber. This wasn't quite my dessert. So next time, because there will definitely be one!, I'll take the lawyer.

Very, very tasty prepared dishes, cleverly put together and exceptional! Recommendation!

Super tasty food and great service! We had half a chicken with burrata and tomatoes (I forget the name of the dish), which was delicious. In addition, the round steak was also tasty, so you can still eat well here even without the desire to eat chicken. The service was incredibly friendly, it made us feel very comfortable and welcome, even with a 1.5 year old little one. By the way, he was given pencils to draw on the menu coloring page. All in all a very good experience and definitely worth repeating when we are back on Texel!
