Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Kempen

We loved the atmosphere and the booth sitting arrangement, it was private but still in a public setting. The seats were very comfortable and the table big enough. The waiter was fantastic, engaging, enthusiastic and very knowledgeable about the food and about the wines we chose. He went out of his way to discuss wine choices and gave us some background about the wine houses. The beef tartar was probably the best we ever had and also the main course (Cod for my wife and duck for me) was beautifully cooked, fabulous quality of the ingredients. The profiterole's we had for our desert were lovely and as with all the food, the taste is subtle and well prepared with the best ingredients. We could not be more satisfied with the food, ambiance and service.

We were at Stappen as 6 adults. Unfortunately we were disappointed with the poor service. During our dinner, maybe 5 or 6 different waiters/waitresses serviced us, when we tried to reach them with eye contact or simply by calling them. They forgot to bring some of the things we asked for, like mustard, water and finally the desserts that we ordered. So we had to remind them twice. Actually, if that was the only problem I would not write a review. Unfortunately, one of the waitresses, was rude to our friend, when our friend asked for the side dish of schnitzel. My friend was very polite but shocked with the answer of the waitress. The waitress replied making mimics and gestures: ''I have only two hands...'' We felt that there was no manager or anybody in charge that spesific night since that waitress was drinking her own cocktail and chatting with the other waiters and waitresses by the end of our dinner.

The overall experience at the restaurant was pleasant. The service was good, but there’s room to improve. The food was well-prepared and delicious. However, the wine selection was quite limited. One issue that stood out was being charged separately for desserts, despite them being a part of the course meals I ordered. That wasn’t very nice, and it left a bit of a sour note on an otherwise good experience. Hopefully, it’s something that can be improved for future guests.
