This spot brings a taste of the Netherlands to the heart of Vancouver. Their specialty? A huge, thin pancake topped with all kinds of delicious ingredients – think bacon, eggs, cheese, tomatoes, and more. I went with bacon, cheese, tomato, and scrambled eggs on my pancake, and a drizzle of maple syrup added the perfect touch of sweetness. Surprisingly tasty and satisfying!

The Dutch hot chocolate was a nice finish, and the overall atmosphere was warm and inviting. The staff were friendly, and clean washrooms were a plus. A unique, worthwhile stop if you’re looking for something a little different.

This place has a great location with a beautiful view, but the staff was very slow and the food was underwhelming. I ordered French Toast with eggs and my friend ordered the pancake with hash. Neither of us enjoyed our food, nor even finished it. The most impressive thing was the waitress' ability to speak fluently to all the guests (English, German and Spanish were the ones I heard!). This restaurant attracts visitors from all over (they have a huge map on the wall where you can pin your hometown).

Popped in for a quick breakfast before my ferry home and I was so happy I did!
I enjoyed the avocado toast with an added poached egg and ham. So filling and delicious. The avocado was more actually a guacamole (I didn’t mind at all) and everything was topped on top of a slice of sourdough toast and came with a small side of fresh seasonal fruit (blueberries, grapes, watermelon, banana).
I was in a bit of a rush and my server Liza brought me my bill quickly so I could run to catch my boat!
I scarfed back my avocado toast and didn’t even think to take a picture because it was so delicious 😋
I also love how this location is open nice and early to accommodate seaplane and ferry times!

I was so looking forward to this meal and it was -- just okay. The setting was great! We had a breakfast reservation and were seated at a nice outdoor table at our request. It took a long time to have someone come to take our order and when they did arrive, they did not seem to understand the menu very well. The menu is confusing, so staff knowing it would be very helpful. Our server was very kind and willing to check on things for us.

We ended up splitting the hash and eggs and one of the pancakes -- gluten free, to accommodate my companion. I do appreciate how helpful the restaurant is at taking dietary restrictions into account. The coffee that we ordered, just the plain drip, was excellent -- and I am very particular about my coffee.

The hash was good, and the eggs were poached as requested. The pancake was ok -- but not stellar. I make many gluten free things for various family members and friends, and have to admit that mine are better.

Overall, this is a solid choice for breakfast, but not spectacular. That said, the view, if you are able to grab a table outside watching the seaplanes take off, is worth a great deal!

Very nice view along the sea walk, the food was lovely with lots of options such as pancakes, french toast and various other breakfast options like eggs Benedict. The service was quick and the staff were very friendly especially our waiter Sam who gave us some local advice about nearby Stanley park. The whole cafe has a nice atmosphere and the music was very jolly ( I'm assuming 80s on 8). Would recommend.
