This pleasant pub is located in de Pijp, one of Amsterdam's most interesting neighbourhoods. Situated on a lovely square with lots of trees, the surroundings couldn’t be more attractive and the French-inspired menu looks exciting. Unfortunately, the final result isn't as good as it could be. The herb jar seems to be under lock and key and the grumpy staff could do with a crash course in customer service. The well chosen wines, the traditionally baked organic bread, the presentation of the dishes and the tasty cheeses on the other hand, do reflect the passion for good food for which the French are so famous.
