Nick Rotterdam

Passed by for lunch. They have an early bird special for brunch (until 11 o’clock). Ordered: * the açai bowl * the pancakes w/ maple syrup & fresh fruit * the scone w/ jam & cream I did not try the pancakes, but my friend said they were tasty. I did enjoy the açai bowl. It was served with crispy granola (w/o raisins) and fresh fruit. The scone was average. The inside was a little soft and a bit dry. The edges were too crispy. The jam was tasty. Homemade(?) strawberry jam. The cream was not very tasty. It tasted like butter. And, it is supposed to taste more milky than buttery. Also ordered a few coffees. The americano was fine. But all the coffees w/ milk arrived lukewarm and were not very enjoyable to drink.

We got the Picknick platter for 2 and it had a great selection of savoury and sweet treats. Everything was delicious! They have lots of seats outside in the sunshine and it was pretty busy on a Sunday morning. Loved it!

Great option for breakfast We ordered the Nicks breakfast and avocado toast. It was delicious and satiating.

The eggs there are really delicious with avocado or salmon, the coffee is great. The place is cozy and staff are helpful. The scones with jam are also very yummy!

This is a pretty standard breakfast/lunch cafe with somewhat limited menu options. You won’t find anything fancy or extraordinary here, but sometimes that could be precisely what you need. I knew I wanted a simple egg breakfast, which I successfully got here. If you’re looking for something a bit more exciting or unusual, there are other cafes within a 5-minute walk distance. Some people mention slow service here, and this seems to no longer be the issue. The place was almost full, and I didn’t experience any delays with my order. So if you’re looking for a casual breakfast or lunch - that’s your place.

Original menu which offers both savory and sweet dishes. I went for the Acaï bowl but am definitively down to try their savory porridge another time. Their lattes and smoothies are just sweetened enough to be flavorful without being to sweet. They are not the cheapest that I tried in Rotterdam but still really good quality. The place is also really cosy, especially with some tables at the back to make it the perfect "Picknick place" !

I’ve been a couple of times and the food is ok. A bit too expensive for the quality though. However, the service is usually really bad. When you manage to get attended, they charge things twice, or have the wrong things in the bill. The last time I went I didn’t even order. I sat in the terrace. The waiter was attending someone next to me, looked at me and just went back inside. After 20 minutes he didn’t come back and I left. As I said, it’s just fine for food, but if you want to have your meal at a normal speed it’s a no go (specially if you’re in a hurry).

An okay place for a breakfast. The staff is quite friendly, the prices are a little higher than the standard, while the quality of the food is a little below. If you don’t have a better place to go because everything else is full, this is the right choice.
