Authentic Stories from Diners
We had our lunch here with an optional excursion by Viking river cruise! It was the best lunch meal we had during the excursion! The selection of the beers, the beef stew, the Belgian fires were all top notch! The service was very good, very engaging, very friendly and polite. Lots of locals were here also not just for tourists. Very, very good!
