Really nice food and service a great setting.  Would heartily recommend this restaurant for dinner.  It was the season for white asparagus and the dishes on the menu reflected this.  Great wine service as well.

Lovely setting for a great restaurant

This is a review on the restaurant. 

I was in Drachten for 1 night.  And my friends brought me to this restaurant for dinner.  It is about 15 mins from Drachten and I do not recall seeing any landmarks nearby.

The exterior is quite pretty; a thatch-roofed wooden structure, painted white (The White House).  The interior is quaint, like a country inn, which it is.

We chose the set meals.  I think it was appetizer, mains and dessert for 35 Euros.  I felt it was reasonably priced for what I got.  I chose the croquette with lobster tail, the steak and creme brulee.

The appetizer was well presented, the lobster tail was very thinly sliced and croquette was either lobster or prawn.  It was nice.   The steak was medium rare as requested, but sliced which was not my preference.  It was OK.  The creme brulee was served flambeed, with 100% alcohol.  This was the first time I had it flambeed.  And they used 100% alcohol instead of using rum, congac or some other flavoured alcohol. I know it was more show than taste but it was a good show.

They also had a good selection of beers and wines.

Nice experience.  I would go back again if I had the chance.

Fine Dining in a Charming restaurant

Local products are used to make classic dishes. Fish, meat and vegetarian choices. Catch of the day was IJsselmeer bass, other option was sole. Limited but good wine list. Friendly and skillful service, even greater location.

Classy but somewhat old-fashioned restaurant.

We came in this place with some friends after a really long walk in the woods the place have a really beautiful and relaxing view.
The beer is really good.
The restaurant also offer a beer made by prisoners (as a local men said)
They also have a really beautiful and super tasty apple cake. 

It's the best after a long walk

We have been here before as a family and decided to come back a few years later to have a birthday meal.

I was doubting between giving them a 2 or 3 out of 5 this time. But had to go with a “poor” due to the low quality service, mediocre food and fairly high price for this area. 

I do think they might have had a bad day with very young and inexperienced waiters. A few reason why I have this low score: an average wait of close to 45minutes per course is too much. Glasses that were unused weren’t removed from the table, we were showed inside to our table 30 minutes before the first course arrived (we were having a drink on their outside terrace before), the duck was tough, the vegetarian dish of the week average tasting and the quiche was not restaurant quality. We paid €8.50 for a scoop of ice cream and some fruit. 

I don’t think we will come back here for food again, especially for €45-50 per person.
