Café Restaurant Merz

Valentijnmenu was top!

As there are no pictures of the place on their website we thought we were going to a restaurant, but turns out it's more of a pub with an outdoor sitting area. Indoors it was dark and the floor was sticky from I assume drinks and there was a group of men watching a loud soccer game. We decided to sit outside, they took our drinks order fast but it took a while before they where served, even longer for the menus to arrive and even longer before we got some starters. When we ordered they could only take starters first then main course, so we had to go two rounds around the table before we were done ordering. The waitress seemed a bit standoffish and did not make a good impression. They seem to take orders on their private cellphones, so I think a change of whatever app they're using might be a good idea. Since they had put two tables together for us the waiters was a bit confused so we constantly was offered other people's drinks, too bad they would not come for free or we could really have a party. The oxfile was a bit on the chewy side ("Sorry that it does not live up to your expectations") but the ribs was falling off the bones and the potatoes was pretty good. Everyone at the table commented that the mayo was a bit sour, I've never seen this family eat so little mayo in my life. Not really our kind of place so we probably won't come back. But if you like the pub atmosphere you probably won't be disappointed. The prices are okay and the food a bit better than average. Just don't expect anything extra in terms of service or decor.
