The place

A time-honoured café on the Oude Delft, the oldest canal in the city, two minutes from the Oude Kerk. The menu is the Dutch midday one: cold and hot broodjes (sandwiches), pancakes, breakfasts, coffee and cakes. When the sun is out, the terrace by the water, with the leaning tower opposite, is the best place to sit in Delft.

Practical details

Open every day. You can book online, but it is not compulsory; groups of more than ten must book. It is the natural stop halfway round the canal walk, between the Oude Kerk and the Markt.

What to order: a hot broodje from the menu and, for dessert, cake with coffee on the terrace.
