Prefer to picnic?

There’s a separate picnic area inside, near Lumen and Grab & Go, where you can eat your own packed lunch undisturbed. All we ask in return is that you clear your table and leave it tidy.

Tip: your sandwiches will taste even better with a cup of soup or a dessert from the Grab & Go.

How does our new concept taste?

A good recipe rarely turns out perfect the first time – which is why your feedback is so valuable. Be sure to fill in the survey you’ll receive after your visit or speak to one of our staff members.

Coming with a group or class?

Groups of 15 or more and classes are asked to reserve our picnic area in advance. For a charge of €2.20, we’ll make sure that there are enough seats and everyone gets a drink. If you order dishes from our menu in advance as a group, you’ll receive a 10% discount.
