Not crowded
Smaak Lokaal also plays a clear social role in the village. There are many regular visitors from both Rijen and the region. Located on the edge of the shopping centre, this popular lunchroom is also host to many shoppers, with Smaak Lokaal itself having various fun accessories for sale as well. This means you can come here for more than the most delicious bread and amazing cheesecake. The ambiance is intimate and cosy but also spacious. The chairs have not been crowded together to fit as many guests as possible. And that is striking, given the following entry in the guest book: “Hospitable and friendly service, great terrace and good acoustics indoors!”
Pampering
Nearly everything eaten here comes from local providers, like a butcher, a baker, an ice cream maker and a greengrocer. That delicious, toasted ham and cheese sandwich for lunch tastes even better when you know that its CO2 footprint is as small as possible. A lunch that you can put together entirely yourself, which means you can sample a bit of everything. The pamper package and the high tea are also very popular, as is ‘Sampling’. Two and a half hours of unlimited enjoyment of the most delicious Smaak bites!
