Since 1975, De Dutch has been offering our guests an unique blend of breakfast, brunch and lunch dishes The Pannekoek, or 12" in diameter genuine Dutch pancake, is our signature dish. But we're not just Pannekoeken! From genuine Dutch cuisine to West Coast favourites prepared with a subtle, yet original Dutch twist!
Really great atmosphere and friendly service! I wish more people knew about this place. The hosts seat people immediately and it takes so fast for cooks to prepare the food. So many options on the menu and all the time you can find seasonal options👏👏👏
Unbelievably delicious, food was incredibly quick to arrive, and I cannot understate how lovely the atmosphere is. Above all though, it feels nice to have a place to enjoy some proper, fresh, dutch brunch.
Great place for a brunch spot. They do close earlier because their main focus is breakfast and brunch. I would always aim to come earlier rather than later as the lineups can be quite lengthy. I love their potatoes and eggs. I love getting the avocado omelette and a coffee.
We had our Family of 4 Thanksgiving Brunch here and we left happy and full. Staff are friendly and very accommodating. Ambiance is very warm with a very cool Halloween theme. Lots of parking available.
My food was so good I never want to come back, I had such a great experience that I’d never want to experience my food cooked poorly. This has been the best breakfast of my life. The sour dough toast that they used was so good. The avocado were perfectly ripe. Eggs and hash were amazing. Everything was perfect I had an amazing breakfast. I was more than extremely impressed by my food! Usually when I go to chain restaurants I am not usually impressed but my food was wonderful. This was my first time eating at de Dutch. I would love to go back and I will only go to this location as long as whoever made my food still works there. They should get a raise. Also the servers were very friendly and polite.
Went here for Halloween time and staff are with their costumes, which is cute. The brunch is pricey for $40 per person. It’s a good experience but food is very traditional in terms of a brunch place.
Our waitress was great and that's the only good thing I can say about the restaurant. We ordered the pancake, latte and Irish coffee, French onion soup. Food & drink were not that tasty. Restaurant interior and menu are both out of date. With this price range, you better go to Angelina at the quay.
The place interior is heavily outdated. Needs renovation for sure. The food was ok, I couldn't say the best, but it was fresh. Staff were friendly and quick. Many free parking spaces are available to use. To me, everything was 4, but I just wanted to support them. Prices are not that bad, kinda affordable for every family
Great staff, great breakfast
Excellent service and food was great will for sure be coming back.
By far the best location, don t hesitate to come here best brunch I have had in a while
Good. Will come back.
Excellent Staff & management, attention to lot of small details & they took care of our table very well
Great experience at the New Westminster location. Labiba offered us a great service and even offered me a free coffee for my birthday. Thanks for your kindness ! Great breakfast place.
Okay, se we have been here multiple times with mixed reviews...it has always been very good. Last visit was phenomenal, great service, tip top food, coffee was tasty, there was noting to complain about! Definitely will be comming back for sure! 100% 5 stars
Thank you for an excellent birthday meal. I appreciated your excellent friendly service.
Really appreciate the decoration during specific times of the year (Halloween, Christmas). The servers are all nice and friendly and tops off our coffee. The hash is delicious but the pannekoken sometimes tastes a little burnt. Would recommend still
The rolled pannoeken with cottage cheese was scrumptious and hit the spot!
Took 30 mins to get my food, also the iced latte tastes like they put some instant coffee powder in it.
Good food but expensive, the are other places with same value for lower price.
The food was good, and their service was nice too. Most of all, the restaurant is bright and cozy. Easy to park.
It was just expensive for really really bad food. The hash browns are frozen, the egg was undercooked it was just overall bad, I wish the waiters were a bit more tentative but it was a Saturday
Food was disgusting, i took one bite and couldn t eat anymore. they still charged me full price . very disappointing
Alla making us feel at home so effortlessly. Yet again.
To preface this review; our group is large, loud and frequent. I used to wait tables, and can tell you our party could be considered the group you dont want in your section. Cant say Ive ever felt that way at this De Dutch. The accommodation, speed of service and patience Ive experienced from our server Khan, and the supporting staff of hostesses & servers is excellent. Weve been to neighboring spots and can say the experience at De Dutch is exceptional in this area. Highly recommended. As a Celiac, I can confirm several dishes are GF and delish without reaction. Dietary restrictions: Celiac
We have a group that meets here every Sunday for brunch and the head server Kaan and his wait staff are always friendly, accurate with the orders, and keep the coffee flowing which is really hard to do for big parties, but they always manage to satisfy all of us. And the food is great too! A delicious place to brunch with your friends and family.
We enjoy brunch at DeDutch New Westminster every Sunday. Our server, Kahn, is the best. All the staff are attentive to our personal preferences, remembering us all the time. Fabulous Service and always with a smile
Great place!!
Reasonable service and food.
My favorite Panekoek place! If you want something special, remember to Just Ask. (I frequently forget and still have a great experience) Plus I love the Teapots! Good food and friendly atmosphere. This is a place to go with friends, for a comfortable hour or two, to sit and talk and have a meal. The food is always prepared to order, and the service is quick and friendly. Its a great place for breakfast or brunch at a reasonable price.
Surry restaurant was closed and we went to coquitlam one but my 4 years old grandson didnt like the one in coquitlam, then we went to this one and penoke big pancake was perfect for my grandson and we go there at all the times. People are very nice here but sometimes you have to ask reapesdly to get what you need? With some of helpers.
Delicious food
Don t go if is your birthday. Been there couple times and was happy but they ruined my birthday. They cancelled my reservation by accident and lie to me saying someone in my group cancelled it. I have 3 pregnant friends and 1 child in this group and they ask us to wait another 15 mins. They didn t say sorry and the food was not good! Also it takes 20 mins for them to serve water. I paid $600 asked 17 of my friends to join me and this is how they treat us. Plz don t come to this restaurant if is your birthday.
My 8 yrs old daughter loves the breakfast here.
Absolute best first experience for dutch food. The Staff are very caring and friendly. Food was filling and overall delicious will be back soon Food : 5/5
Staff friendly, clean and food is good. The cinnamon pecan pannekoek was delicious!
We were a group of 10 people and we each ordered our food. Some came in a timely manner but some came quiet late and some were also missing. At the end, when we expressed our desire to pay seperately, the waitress handed us a pen and paper and asked us to do the calculations on our own as she didnt know who ordered what! We had to go around the table and write down which order is whose. Then we realized a fixed 18% tip was added to our table as we exceeded 6 people. We were quiet taken back and asked the waitress to change the tip amount as we were not getting the service one would get in a restaurant, were basically asked to do their job, and were not given the right orders. The waitress said that she cant do anything about it as a fixed 10% is always added to groups bigger than 6. We were so unpleased with our experience at this branch.
Great food but to damn expensive for a thin pancake with toppings.
Service was great but the food was not.
the pancake the beat here
Good place to eat!
So slow, not good service. I dont rrecommend
Not bad! Parking: It is a street mall parking lot Food : 4/5 |
Food was subpar.pretty sure it was stuff sitting in a heating table and seemed old.I will never be eating breakfast there ever again
Oh my goodness!! It was the best banana walnut pancake I have ever had! My son and I really enjoyed it, and it now may be my favourite breakfast spot. Of course there is more than just pancakes. Try a bowl of their fresh fruit
Really good food and friendly staff.
The restaurant is comfortable and spacious. The service was friendly and fast. The food was OK, but not memorable. Nothing really had much flavor. It was eatable just not something I will crave again. The only thing really delicious was the hot chocolate. It was creamy and rich. The cream comes on the side so you can chose to use it or not.
The food is always amazing as well as the service. We always order take out and they know it s me when I call and know my order. I highly recommend eating here.
This De Dutch is outstanding! I ordered the eggs Benny and a fruit salad and it exceeded my expectations. This was the best fruit salad I have ever had! I will 100% be recommending this restaurant.
Food was amazing and the service was excellent. No complaints about this place.
Excellent service and great food
Good food and gluten free options.
Fast and kind service today, and we great quality and fresh food. Might be my new favourite De Dutch location. Vegetarian options: One of my favourite breakfast/ brunch locations because of their vegetarian options
The price is a bit expensive and the taste is average. My husband and I got diarrhea after eating it
Meena(i think) was a great server. She was super friendly and polite. Her service was the best. She recommended us (the manitoba couple) the places to go around. The food was very tasty. Very well presentation. My favorite was the dutch cheesecake pancake. Must try their orange juiceTHE BEST JUICE EVER(for real). Meena shared that its pure oranges and nothing else.
Dutchtastic!
Vegetarian options: Lots of options that dont include meat. Kid-friendliness: Plenty of highchairs/booster seats. Kids cutlery, colouring materials provided, kids are given plastic cups for drinks. Kids menu has good selection and variation
Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs or curbs. Food
Fresh fruits were really fresh ones. Good value for the price. Surprised to see the prices didnt increase much as other restaurants. Service was a bit slow but it was a busy holiday morning. The kids meal was one of the best we had in all restaurants Kid-friendliness: Large portion with real fruits.
Not much different from any other brunch place. It was disappointing that I made a mistake in selecting the menu on my first visit. One of the two menus was okay. Ill try a different menu next time. Parking: Parking was conveniently available right in front of the store or next to it.
Older store but great food and service.
If you are interested to try Dutch food. It is worth to try. I don t what the dutch food looks like or tastes. I can only comment that the pancakes I ve ordered is delicious. First time try salty pancake with cheese, it is interesting.
630am and the eggs were cooked perfectly. Crispy bacon, yum. Second to go order was brought with the bill, timed well and fresh!
Ordered online through Skip. Hashbrowns are cold and mushy. Scrambled eggs are paper thin and not fully cooked. Bacon is just back bacon/ham and not explicitly described as that. Avocado isnt sliced and was just given half of an avocado. None of the toast is buttered and dry. Benny was tasty, but hollandaise was underseasoned.
First time here, good stuffing food. Pricing is ok. Mediterranean Omelette is great! Service is also very good.
The food is quite good even though every time we go there I have to send the bacon back to be made crispy even though thats how I always order it, l was taken back a bit when I got the check, 2 pancakes and a half litre of OJ cost us $70.00...it was just 2 dishes, Ill be making my own at home from now on.
Wonderful place for a brunch! Were going to remember this place! Food
Food was great and so filling!!!
It was a very quiet morning breakfast with little to no other customers when we went. (7-8am) the waitress was great. The food was warmly served on a larger plate making the food appear minimal. This location is placed on a busy artery in New Westminister.
We went today for New Years Day breakfast. Restaurant was busy, but the service was excellent. The wait staff were friendly and the food came out quickly and was very good. They had alot of staff on today. I want to say Thank you to the staff that work today and fantastic service .
Great service and food... just what you expect from a restaurant.
Awesome.... good food and services. The two thing we have come to expect and have always gotten
The price is above average for the quantity rather variety in plate and quality of food served. The coffee was great though
Great customer service and extraordinary food !
For a restaurant very surprised that they provided frozen hash browns and borsche made with dried dill. Fresh dill is the basis of the flavor for borsche.
Ordinary taste. Ordinary service. Overpriced plate. Anything I eat here, I can make it better.
Yummy
The food smell burnt didnt taste much better, and the pricing is out ridiculously completely overpriced for the poor quality food.
Great breakfast and brunch options!
i had a egg scramble special it was perfect. The staff was awesome. Nice homey restaurant
Great service
Clean, great food, following health protocols, and friendly staff
I love this De Dutch. The staff are friendly and they are always looking at how much coffee you have left. I enjoyed the burgers which were very substantial.
Must try this place. The milkshake was really yummy thought of tasting before taking a picture of it but couldn t resist myself after tasting it Bit costly though but must try place
Always good food and very friendly service.
Breakfast was yummy on my first visit.
Always good eats.
Service was good, food was ok, but I didnt find much value, as my breakfast with a coffee, was over $30 after tip.
Great brunch place, I love their pancakes, nicely made!
The perfect brunch place! Love the pannenkoek! do try it with the strawberry sauce & Nutella.
Extremely mediocre and expensive breakfast food. Walk up 6th street for several higher quality options (Highlight, 6th street grill). Most of the menu is $18, and you are charged multiple dollars for every add on. I think a side of hollandaise is $3.50 for example. Most disappointing were the hash browns, just pre-frozen rectangles, not even very crispy.
Tastes good and service is good, but is very expensive for what it is. But I guess that goes for everything nowadays.
Good selection of breakfast dishes. Service was ok. Not cheap but food was tasty
Great place, will visit again Kids menu was valuable also the staff was really nice.
Food quality has gone downhill
Always a great meal. Thanks for following the rules and keeping us safe on our visits.
Best manager. Very kind to customers
I would expect 3 or 4 star experience but nothing more from this location. We were sitted earlier than table next to us but was served after. That is fine but wasnt on a busy day. Food is alright but I feel price is high for quality/portion served.
Good breakfast /brunch. They are honest as well! Left something valuable there and they kept it safe for me until I picked it up.
For people who like big round pannekoek.
First experience at De Dutch and it was amazing, great portion sizes and the prices were on point. The staff was super friendly and service was quick.
Table was wiped down, then we were seated. Table still had food stuck on top. Order didn t come out as asked, only got one cup of coffee, even though we asked for more in the middle of our meal. Husband had to get hot sauce from another table, as we asked for it, and never got it. Disappointed for the cost of their food.
Family run, friendly and approach staff, fresh & flavorful food, large portions, reasonable price. I ll be back.
Were new to New West and went for a walk, we hadnt had breakfast yet, we simply were going to go to Save in foods and just grab some stuff and walked past De Dutch and went Why not Service was quick, fast and friendly. Food was super tasty Coffee was fresh Id highly recommend stopping in for a quick bite. Atmosphere is very family friendly and group friendly, not too loud here. Lots of parking and close to bus and train station if youre passing through
A very busy, and happy, place on Sunday. No shortage of friendly and attentive staff. The Dutch kroket and pannekoek were delicious. Original flavours, and just what I craved.
Excellent place for breakfast
My vegetarian wife simply chewed on a piece of bacon in her food and spit it out. No comoensation, and one simple appology seemed to be enough for them. De Dutch is generally good...but i do not recommend this branch
Great choices for breakfast. Nice spacious location Ample parking.
I had a lunch with my family..it was good and service is good as well but bit pricey Parking: Patking available always..
Fantastic food
Not busy at all inside and can see why. Food was just ok. Server forgot to put in my side of sausage and when I did get them was disappointed to receive a few small slices of sausage. Wouldnt go back.
As prices rise, the amount of food becomes less and less. My husband and I each ordered a meal, but neither of us went home full.
Service was meh!
Nice place!!
Nice food, great portion... I ate the meat omelet, yummy
Changed my review from a 5 star to a 3 star . Not all the food here is bad , but it s kinda unfortunate when you order in and you have to refry the hash browns because they come undercooked .
I m a regular here. Several times a month. Servers are very friendly and professional. I usually get poached eggs and bacon, with side of avocado, or their famous panekoek, with the in-house made berry topping. Recently tried their home made ( European style ) hash browns, also made from scratch in house, not frozen. All very tasty; I continue to bring family and friends for breakaway or brunch, thank you.
Love it! Food and Staff were perfect. Really clean and fair price.
Wonderful! We had a family breakfast which was delicious. The atmosphere is very pleasant, the people very attentive and the food amazing.
The best De Dutch Ive ever been to. The pancake was delicious and the people were very nice. I will be back.
Good food that came out in seconds. Good server who was ready with recommendations.
The eggs Benedict has improved by adding fresh parsley on top of eggs and the small potatoes are fresh.
Seated immediately, drinks brought right away and refills were quick and offered many times. Our server was efficient and friendly, food came quickly and was delicious! There was a bit of a wait in getting our bill at the end, but we still had coffee to finish so can t complain. All in all a good experience.
Objectively the worst breakfast Ive ever had and it was way too expensive for what it was. The salmon was fishy, the seasoning (if you can even call it seasoning) was confusing and didnt compliment the food at all, the tomatoes were runny and soggy, the potatoes were so undercooked I swear they were taken out of the bag frozen and heated only enough so they werent cold on the plate. Gross. I couldnt finish it. We wont be back. Edit: my partner who ate the same thing as me feels sick after this meal
Good service, food was good, good prices and the fresh orange juice was delicious good brunch
There were many small things that were annoying. Like my orange slice was all rind, not everyone enjoys the rind. The eggs were chilly and the plate and food warm. Its a very social environment so if you enjoy some privacy while you eat, you may not enjoy it here.
Really good food amazing friendly staff was pleasantly surprised with the fully accessible disabled bathroom being in a wheelchair this made everything perfect will definitely be coming back
Food was good, like the half litter fresh press orange juice. The service was very slow, to take the order and get the food.
Excellent customer service. Good dinning experience.
K I know its just a diner. But they went full out for Halloween. Like absurd. I loved it. Id never eaten at a DeDutch so was pleasantly surprised by the food. It was solid, not mind-blowing, but good enough. I would go back for sure. I was there near closing, while they were starting their clean down, and the bathroom was still amazingly clean. Top marks for that.
Nothing special
Food was great, the service was perfect thank you Serena
Seated instantly. Servers were nice and very busy. The food is nicely displayed but unfortunately is meh, in fact my dish was pretty bland and tasteless. For the price I would expect a fantastic tasting breakfast. The onion and green peppers were barely cooked (eggs n hash). Ordered a side of salsa which came in a tiny metal ketchup type container to help with the taste and it was $3.50 plus tax and most likely from a jar. Didnt finish my food. Will try somewhere else next time. My son did like his kids meal breakfast. Maybe Ill try a different dish next time. Parking: Parking is great and free
Great Food!!
Very comfy restaurant and kind staffs. I ordered avocados benedict and french toast!! Those were good
Came in the morning. What a cozy atmosphere and lovely waitress!
Had breakfast with 4 other friends. The food was good and large portions. Had a great time. Services is above average. Recommended!
Bad coffee, dismissive waitresses. Didnt even bother with the food since the service so bad.
Good food. Also, thank you for being an accessible employer. We need more of those in our community. Good job.
The food and service was good, Though it was with a little delay.
Service was good but thats it....
Good food poor service
Fresh orange juice was nice. Ordered a breakfast with no eggs. Received 1 piece of toast, hashbrowns, tomato, avocado, bacon and sausage. Hashbrowns are standards. Tomato and avocado were both fresh. The bacon was not your standard strip bacon. It was more of a shaved meat situation. Not my style. When I order bacon Im looking for the strip kind. The sausage is where I had a real issue. Thinking I would get some sort of breakfast sausage I received about 6 circles of some sort of what seemed like frozen grocery store bought sausage. I would definitely recommend them changing this. It was very unappealing. This all being said, my breakfast came to $27..... I personally would not eat here again. Mostly because of the price and my personal preference on the ingredients used. I would suggest trying once for yourself though.
My most recent experience was fantastic. The server was very kind and very informative. Great timing on reading the table. The food is excellent always. My previous visit we stood at the front as employees looked at us and walked away to do their jobs, no one greeted us. After waiting a minute somebody finally came over and seated us, and the server was minimal in her approach. Didnt make us feel special. Overall, I tell every person I know to go to the dutch, and anybody visiting from out of province I take here.
Great food & service! Hits high marks every single time. The servers are awesome and very considerate. My family always orders a side of de bacon.
Very mediocre food and super pricy. Latte smells like dish washer soap.
Went there for breakfast, looked liked a new menu . I started with the oatmeal which was a large serving with cream and brown sugar then had the avocado on toast with the egg which was delicious and healthy. Will definitely go again. Service was exemplary, restaurant very clean and covid protocols in place .Great value .
The food is ok, but too expensive for the quality.
Great service. The staff are really friendly and were happy to find us a great table. Food was pretty good considering how busy it was on Saturday morning.
Loved it !!! Great Food Great Vibe Great Service
Great food with good service. Its expensive, but I think anyone who goes to De Dutch knows that ahead of time. Would definitely go again, but its too pricy to go often.
I love this breakfast spot! So good! Service was great. Very quick and staff are super friendly and welcoming. There is lots of tables. Will definitely return!
When new in country its time to explore new places along with new restaurants too . We came here for brunch and loved the place service along with food. We ordered classic omelet with veggies only and breakfast bowl which was filling and tasty . Would want to come back for the Dutch pan cakes for sure.
I went for breakfast on this Sunday and loved it. Quite busy but we didn t have to wait for table. We were surprised how fast the service was, food didn t take that long too! Staff was friendly and took care of everything we need. We will be going back soon!!
Checking & scanning for Vaccine Passport which is great. Good selections on the menu & the server was friendly.
I ve been working in the restaurant industry for quite some time now, and I have been to this De Dutch on several occasions and can I just say I ve never felt so much love and strong service at any other restaurant. This restaurant goes out of their way to ensure all guests get the best service possible, and takes top priority of meals coming out with high quality. This restaurant truly sets the standard for what good service is suppose to look like. Today was just another day my family and I came in, and unfortunately there was a medical emergency. As if I didn t love this location already, but to drop everything and ensure the safety of your guest first over anything else in my eyes is unmatched. I always like to put myself in the shoes of others, and if this happened to one of my family members I would expect the same care. Thank you for your endless kindness, and your ability of making people days better with just a 30-40 min stay at your restaurant. Once again the meals were incredible and we can t wait to come back again.
I ve been to this location a few times now, and today there was an incident where someone got hurt. The staff were extremely helpful and attended to the person with excellent care. Makes me feel comfortable that they have their customers well-being as their priority. Some people were upset but the situation was well-handled and the wait time was more than understandable. Along that, their service is great and so is the food :)
Staff, food, and service were fantastic! The chorizo quesadilla is immaculate.
I have eaten at this location many times, because of the good food and excellent service. Today there was a medical emergency where paramedics had to help a customer, the staff immediately helped the customer until the paramedics arrived and helped as much as they could afterwards. Its great to know what kind of caring service this place has for its customers. They still had good service towards their customers as well as caring for the injured customer.
The service and food is top notch. My favourite place for breakfast.
As a brunch fanatic I usually end up here at least once every week or two. Despite being a very busy establishment I am yet to have a poor experience here. Customer service is always spot on, which is not surprising given that the owner is almost always onsite to ensure that things are running smoothly. I think it goes without saying, but DeDutch brunch is unbeatable and the New West location does not stray from that. The staff even remember my name and always greet me with a smile. I cant recommend this DeDutch enough !!! Also they have free run eggs which is a must in todays world!!
Nice & cozy ambiance on a rainy day. Amazing food and good servers...
Quality of food is decent but it is very expensive. An omellete for 20 dollars!!! Ridiculously expensive
Excellent quick service.
Always good service and delicious food
Love the food and serving size is really good. Have really good options for people with gluten allergy.
Good local place to eat breakfast.
