I love this place! The food was amazing, a lot of non-common ingredients and original dishes. Some of them was experimental, out of the frame. The food in courses, so you don’t need to choose. Everything is vegan. They change the menu every week, so you may go there several times and always have unique experiences. You may pay donation 35-75 euro. I liked that bread and water were free.

I love this place! The food is delicious and divers, I like how they contribute to all kinds of initiatives and to people that can afford less with the Volkskeuken. The atmosphere is great and I've never been in a restaurant where they are so caring and flexible with my complicated diet. Super kind people, I definitely recommend it.

I had wanted to come to TestTafel for months and oh boy it did not disappoint. Loved the cheerful friendly atmosphere without any pretence, the food was amazing. My favorites were the tomato sorbet, roasted carrots, watermelon steak and the brownie. I would sell my soul for that brownie.

The food was very tasty and creative! Great to have all vegan 7 course meal. Some courses were more interesting than the others but overall, still totally worth it. The menu changes every week so I would like to try it out again. Each course has small portion (which is good considering that there are 7) except for the last savory course, which is quite large. So don’t eat too much bread! It does take quite some time in between the courses so you do get tempted to order more bread.. which is super tasty. I also really liked that the last three courses were desserts. The ice creams were so good!! The food looked much better than in my pictures since it was very dark to take good pictures..

Would be nice to have a sign of TestTafel on the door (if there is, it wasn’t visible) though since it was quite difficult to find. Look for the number 6 and the sign “de Sering” and open the (plastic?) door that seems like an entrance to a greenhouse or a warehouse.
