A special location just across the cathedral. Plenty of statues of saints of which names are forgotten. Nice palce for dinner or a snack or to talk with friends over a beer or wine. Wheelchair is difficult. More

I know... The decoration is a bit cheesy... But my 8-year-old daughter loved it! And so did we! You cannot stop looking around! Each time you turn your head you find something knew! My daughter wanted to see every "statue", take pictures, touch them. We enjoyed ourselves very much. I read many reviews complaining about the service. I did not... More

Visited Het Elfde Gebod (the 11th commandment - a great name) which might have changed their name to The Cathedral Cafe (not so great name).

We waited one hour before they told us they forgot our order and could we please repeat it! They put us in a dark corner to be promptly ignored by the obviously overworked staff.

Arrived on time for a booking made well in advance, to be met by an arrogant man who seemed to doubt we had booked. He asked 3 times if I was sure. We could see it was busy, but that shouldn't be a big deal to a well known business. We were rushed to an empty dirty table and told... More

It's not very expensive place, maybe some special beers are a not so cheap. After a time, there was an other waiter. He was a... More

This restaurant is right next to the Cathedral and seems to be now called Carolus and not Het Elfde Gebod. We went twice. The first time, the food was excellent and it was again the second time, however, the service the second time was not good. We were left with plates on our tables for nearly half an hour. having...
