Recently moved to the neighbourhood and had the best kapsalon here with a good portions and taste. The people are so nice, a drink was offered by them. Will visit there often.

the prices are fair and the food is great! I'm personally a huge fan of their Patatje Stoofvlees. you can either sit down and eat in a relaxed environment, which is fine if you go alone or with friends. you can also take your food to go! it's open late so if you missed your chance to walk into the Coop to buy dinner you can always count on Dolfijn as a delicous back up plan! the staff is friendly and the owner is lenient to new ideas and art projects
