Ich war heute Abend bei schönem Wetter bei Automatiek Van Weel in Nijmegen und bin wieder einmal begeistert! Wir konnten draußen sitzen – es gibt genügend Sitzplätze, sodass man auch spontan einen Platz findet. Die Bestellung ging schnell und die Bedienung war sehr freundlich. Das Essen wurde direkt an den Tisch gebracht. Die Pommes waren super lecker, natürlich mit Oorlog-Soße – einfach köstlich! Auch Bami und Frikandel Special dürfen bei einem Besuch hier nicht fehlen. Alles war frisch und hat klasse geschmeckt. Ich komme immer wieder gerne hierher. Wer typisch niederländische Snacks in entspannter Atmosphäre genießen möchte, ist bei Van Weel genau richtig

I ordered the Chicken Schnitzel Menu. Portion size was okay. Salad is tasteless, but didn't expect that much. Though the lettuce could be cut a bit better, so I could easily pick it up with my fork. Chicken schnitzel was okay, crispy yet tender, nothing special. There was luckily enough mayo to dip my fries and schnitzel. Finally, the fries were the best! I'd recommend to only take the fries as it's pricey to get the menu.
