Overall, you can enjoy with us the most refined cuisine, but also a "simple but nice" meal. The seasonal changes are reflected on our map. In the summer, for example, we present spicy Mediterranean dishes and fresh salads, while in winter lovers of wild o

In Apeldoorn there are quite a few good restaurants and De Smoezer is certainly one of them. We were there for a family occasion with 6 people in total. To be sure we had made a reservation which was handled with care. The reception was very professional yet warm, 4 of the guests arrived a little bit later and the staff acted as they should. Asked us if we wanted something to drink and then waited for the other guests to arrive. We all had starters which really were a good start to the diner: especially the mushrooms in beer batter were a treat. For the main course we had 4 different items and everybody was very pleased with what they got on their platters. Cutlet Duroc, salmon fillet, cheese fondue or codfish, all dishes were presented beautiful and tasted just as beautiful. And when ordering desert certainly consider "Chocolate lover", a wonderful chocolate arrangement. Also worth mentioning is the extensive vegetarian menu.

Restaurant de Cantharel

Reviewed By kellisabeth

The downside of the hotel is the restaurant's limited choice of vegan/plant-based food. Not even a milk alternative next to coffee machines or dairy-free creamer in the room (How about some Alpro coconut/almond/oat or soya?) I would love a cappuccino!Despite promising of a good selection of vegetarian options on their website, the reality is different and the text on the website is clearly written by someone who isn't a vegetarian, or vegan. The a la carte menu only has about 3 vegetarian dishes from which one was sold out/unavailable yesterday and one was a starter. Staff proudly shared that there's plenty of vegetarian options on the menu. Really? All there was left as a main was the "knolselderij" with couscous and it was absolutely dry, tasteless, flavorless. The french fries saved the meal and that is never ever a good thing. Portions were small and we didn't feel like we got value for money or any protein for that matter.We also had a look at the buffet that only had a tiny table with a few bowls of salad somewhere in the corner and feta cheese already mixed with it. Breakfast was a little better as in: great juice maker, fresh OJ, fruits, baked beans, roasted vegetables, oats, bread. Again, could step it up with some nuts, milk replacements, yoghurt on coconut base for example. If van der Valk wants to attract future millennials and a younger target market its time to disrupt the current strategy from within. Solely changing its image and appearance from classic to modern interior and a new look on Instagram won't help. It's not about "grandma's simple Dutch food" anymore (potato, salad, meat, applesauce) it's about being on top of current food and lifestyle movement and a vibe that matches this day and age that van der Valk still misses. It's not about staff walking around like they are still in a hotel school, stiff and drilled like soldiers. (with all due respect to each and every one of them because they are hard working and kind) the problem lies in the way they are trained. Nothing about the current hotel vibe feel natural - kind of like a Goede Tijden Slechte Tijden set, except for their wonderful gardens and horses of course. It's time for nice marketing talks to practice what they preach. Millenials are well traveled, with a sense for good, high-quality culinary food from around the world. Van der Valk de Cantharel is blessed with a gorgeous vegetable garden and it's a vegan/vegetarians heaven to create something unique with these fresh products. Don't let them be the underdog of the menu. Take inspiration from other international hotel chains i.e. Hilton and Courtyard by Marriott, who are stepping up their vegan game with an extensive vegetarian and vegan culinary menu.We've another 2 days left, lets see how the menu is tonight. ;-)

Reviewed By patjatje

On a last moment we made reservations. According to the site it was full hooked but when we called there was still place. We arrived earlier then planned and luckly the table was already free. The food menu is Nice , You choose 3 different starters out of 9, 3 different main dishes out of 9 and 3 different desserts out of 9. Price Total is 32,50€. This is a real Nice experience the food was real good and very Nice service of mostly very Young people . There is one min which is that the tables in the first part of the restaurants are much nicer with warm lights. We were in a separated part which is close to the kitchen door and waitresses passing by a thousand times . There is even one table in the direct lane to the kitchen and that is no fun. I would not accept that table . our table was just not that close so we could manage. Other than this it was a nice evening and next time i book table in the front.Thanks for your respons. Good to hear that you're experience was a good one. On a Friday and Saturday a last moment reservation doen'st give you the best table, next time call us ahead so that we can make sure the table is to your liking. Team Spicebrush de Proeverij

The restaurant is closely situated from het Loo (palace), so in summertime also nice for a pre or post dinner walk. The food served tasted very well for all dishes, though for bigger groups we noted that not all dishes were warm. Service was disappointing in comparison to the quality of the food. Therefore on average 4 out of 5
