The downside of the hotel is the restaurant's limited choice of vegan/plant-based food. Not even a milk alternative next to coffee machines or dairy-free creamer in the room (How about some Alpro coconut/almond/oat or soya?) I would love a cappuccino!Despite promising of a good selection of vegetarian options on their website, the reality is different and the text on the website is clearly written by someone who isn't a vegetarian, or vegan. The a la carte menu only has about 3 vegetarian dishes from which one was sold out/unavailable yesterday and one was a starter. Staff proudly shared that there's plenty of vegetarian options on the menu. Really? All there was left as a main was the "knolselderij" with couscous and it was absolutely dry, tasteless, flavorless. The french fries saved the meal and that is never ever a good thing. Portions were small and we didn't feel like we got value for money or any protein for that matter.We also had a look at the buffet that only had a tiny table with a few bowls of salad somewhere in the corner and feta cheese already mixed with it. Breakfast was a little better as in: great juice maker, fresh OJ, fruits, baked beans, roasted vegetables, oats, bread. Again, could step it up with some nuts, milk replacements, yoghurt on coconut base for example. If van der Valk wants to attract future millennials and a younger target market its time to disrupt the current strategy from within. Solely changing its image and appearance from classic to modern interior and a new look on Instagram won't help. It's not about "grandma's simple Dutch food" anymore (potato, salad, meat, applesauce) it's about being on top of current food and lifestyle movement and a vibe that matches this day and age that van der Valk still misses. It's not about staff walking around like they are still in a hotel school, stiff and drilled like soldiers. (with all due respect to each and every one of them because they are hard working and kind) the problem lies in the way they are trained. Nothing about the current hotel vibe feel natural - kind of like a Goede Tijden Slechte Tijden set, except for their wonderful gardens and horses of course. It's time for nice marketing talks to practice what they preach. Millenials are well traveled, with a sense for good, high-quality culinary food from around the world. Van der Valk de Cantharel is blessed with a gorgeous vegetable garden and it's a vegan/vegetarians heaven to create something unique with these fresh products. Don't let them be the underdog of the menu. Take inspiration from other international hotel chains i.e. Hilton and Courtyard by Marriott, who are stepping up their vegan game with an extensive vegetarian and vegan culinary menu.We've another 2 days left, lets see how the menu is tonight. ;-)

Large airy restaurant and garden. Excellent menu choice. Try the spare ribs (they have an offer on so you can eat as much as you want). All dishes excellently cooked. Good competitive pricing. Also good selection of beers including local beers. Staff very helpful and sociable.

This is a pancake house that serves tasty pancakes in a friendly, family atmosphere. It's not posh and not particularly cheap but it is good fun. There is a wide range of pancakes to choose from.Children were given place settings that could be coloured in with the crayons provided. Some simple intelligent games were also available to keep them occupied and their parents happy.You'll not be hungry after a meal there!

We stopped in for a quick lunch and were very pleased with the friendly staff who was happy to translate the menu for us in English and the charming decor. The food is typical type "comfort" bar food but was very tasty. We enjoyed our impromptu visit as we passed through the town. It has a patio attached as well which would be awesome during warmer months. A fun place to hang out in the evenings I'm sure to play pool, have a beer, & socialize. Well done!

In the area there are deer, wild swines, and so forth. The autumn menu was just fresh, so I took wild! Entree was carpaccio of deer, croquet wild swine, filet of deer, and a quail thigh, marinated. Others had fish , deer, and all deliciously garnished. We couldn't even think about dessert, while the menu was extensive...Top! Highly recommended.

Our Dutch friends thought we'd enjoy this special venue whilst visiting from the UK and it really is a treat from start to finish. Arriving on foot (you can arrange collection by golf buggy I believe), its almost like stumbling on something no-one else knows about in the middle of the woods! Starting with bubbles and nibbles outside we were ushered into the main restaurant (unfortunately all outside tables were taken) and were the only ones inside for most of the evening. The service and food are a real treat and portions are generous. It really is somewhere very special and I'd love to go again one day but be prepared to pay for the experience!The menu is limited and is not in English - from memory it was 4 or 5 courses with two main choices of menu but you can also chop and change a little. They are also extremely helpful with dietary issues as our friends son has serious allergies and it's the first place he's ever been served a truly special meal just for him!The winter snug and fire looks wonderful too.The only slight negative, and I have to agree with a previous reviewer, is that two of us had to sit in a window seat and had back problems by the end of the meal - not me luckily - but it is an issue in this calibre of restaurant. Also annoying when the rest of the restaurant was unoccupied.What a wonderful message, thank you very much! We're very glad that you've enjoyed the location and the food. And we understand your experience about the seating. Hope to see you next time!

The choices of pasta offered on the menu were relatively disappointing. I expected to have a lot more and extraordinary ways of how to serve pasta, however, I experienced the menu being not very satisfying and quite 'usual'.Nevertheless, when we got our food, it was very nicely served. The taste was good and also the sizing of the portion was more than enough. The service was okay. Some of the waitresses were very nice, helpful and polite, some others were lacking a little bit in their hospitality performance. Tip: If it is warm enough outside, make use of their charming little tables outside the restaurant to dine :)
