Love this place - Edit

Food can be between 2 and 5 stars, but that’s kind of the fun of it. It’s made by volunteers on Saturdays. Three course diner for 7,50! And a bar you can buy drinks.
A great place. Kind, easy-going and artistic. Have been here several times. Really like it a lot.
When I couldn’t eat something because of allergies, the owner was too kind giving me something else.
So far always place. Starts 18:00, but just in case by food-ticket earlier.

Sanctuary Supper - Edit

We arrived around 5:30 PM to buy €7.50 meal tickets at the bar. Minty pea soup was available just after 6 PM. Large servings of rice with jackfruit and hummus were available at 6:45 PM. Lemon pie was available after 7:30 PM. I didn't try it, but my partner liked it.

Pros: all vegan, inexpensive

Cons: long wait between courses

Very cheap 3 course menu that is made with love - Edit

Alternative place where volunteers who just love cooking make a 3 course meal every Saturday that you will only pay 6 euros for. Every week it's a different menu and so far it has always been very tasty. Dinner starts at 7pm and you have to buy a 'bonnetje' at the bar to get the food. As it many times sells out I'd recommend to be there by 6.30 the latest to make sure you will still get some food. If you don't need a fancy place to eat at and are looking for cheap yummy vegan food made by very friendly and loving people, this is your place! NOTE: You can only pay cash here!

Pros: Made with love, Cheap, Community place

Cons: Sells out almost every time, No fancy place but that's not why you'd go anyway

Be wary of varying hours/days - Edit

This place looks so wonderful! Too bad it is not open on Fridays for food during summer months.
Check for updated events, but it appears that only Saturday nights have events which are not food related.
Anyway, if you are there outside of July-August, I am jealous! I want to check this place out!
