Leuk, lekker en gezellig - Edit
Full vegan menu. We tried the ‘salmon’ and vegetable kroketten/croquets. Both very nice. Sweet staff. Clean bathroom.
Read moreThe ‘shop’ (second hand / vintage) is far from what could be made of it. Card payment in shop is not posible. Staff eats non-vegan food in sight of guests. Many, too many, fake plants. Prices are high. 15 Euro for two sandwiches with ‘salmon’ or two croquets.

Great atmosphere - Edit
Great atmosphere and interior design in this monumental building. Staff was really helpful and friendly. All vegan so thats great! I do think its on the high side in terms of price for what it is: 15,50 for a sandwich. 50 euro for two people (three coffees, two sandwiches and one dessert). I think this can hopefully be lowered a bit in the future. Maybe keep the food cost down by buying less ready made products (e.g. vegan salmon) but make alternatives in house? On the photos the smashed avocado with vegan feta and sun dried tomato, and the vegan salmon sandwich.

Vegan salmon was great - Edit
We had a shared ‘dining’ for lunch with a large group. The vegan salmon was really good, we had different sandwiches and flatbread with great dips. The building is absolutely beautiful, it’s a light and cosy place to be. Friendly staff and all vegan 💚

Wanted to lunch here, but was unexpectedly closed - Edit
Stopped in Dordrecht on our way to The Hague and wanted to have lunch here, on a Thursday.
Read moreSurprised to arrive there and find the shop open, but the restaurant closed. I had checked IG and FB beforehand, but had not seen any notice posted. Aaargh.😔
So that was a real bummer.
I asked the staff if they could hence recommend any other lunch places for vegans, but they couldn't. 🤔
Later I checked the website and indeed there it was announced that the resto would be closed that particular Thursday.
Please also update your socials when changing your opening hours...

So sorry for you, in dordrecht there is a other very good vegan restaurant Rebel Rebel. I don’t understand why they dit not recommend it to you. This restaurant was the first vegan restaurant in dordrecht. :-(

Heerlijke terras tuin - Edit
Wij hebben hier lekker gegeten. De menukaart is bijna helemaal vegan. Het terras is echt heerlijk zitten. Het is een mooie binnentuin en zo lekker rustig. Ook binnen in het restaurant ziet het er mooi uit.

Magical - Edit
What a place. So special. A huge shop with dishes, jewelry, clothes and many more and a big cozy cafe. A bit Mary Poppins feeling. We had great breakfast and enjoyed the friendly atmosphere. They have vegan tea time. And delicious cakes.

Great surprise - Edit
The restaurant is located behind the shop in a cute little garden. Most of the menu items are vegan or can be veganised, with a lot of fake cheese. We ordered two types of tartines, one with fake feta cheese, the other with fake halloumi, both very good and not too heavy. We also treated ourselves with kroketten which is a typical dish in the Netherlands (fried balls of oyster mushroom puree). Definitely recommend if you are around Rotterdam and visiting Dordrecht!

Cons: The garden could use some shaded areas

The place to be! - Edit
Ik ben al meerdere keren wezen eten bij Bluebirds en is inmiddels mijn favoriete plek in de omgeving. De locatie is prachtig, het terras is geweldig om te zitten, rustig een mooi. En de kaart is fantastisch! Veel keus, goeie combinaties. Kortom; the place to be!
Read moreVoor mij persoonlijk ook een fijne plek omdat er zeer ruime glutenvrije keuze is.
Pros: Alleen maar vega, Veel keuze van de kaart, Altijd lekker en vers
Cons: Geen

Cute place, boring food - Edit
The location is amazing: a beautiful building on multiple levels with a small cafè, the restaurant and an area with a shop that sells extremely cute items.
Read moreUnfortunately, the menu is extremely simple and a bit sad, nothing very original, a lot of toasties and hummus on bread, spring rolls and a salad. We got the toast with hummus and avocado and it was soo sad, two slices of low-quality bread with 1millimiter of hummus and 5 super thin slices of avocado. The spring rolls were nice, and also the krokett on bread were decent. Overall, not very inspiring and not a lot of 'love' in the presentation.
The staff is super gentle but two of the waitresses were just eating in front of everyone and using their fingers to clean their teeth. It is not something you do in front of your customers.
Overall, giant potential but so far, not expressed at all.
Pros: Great location
Cons: Boring food, Priced

The cutest garden - Edit
This cafe is very cute and a shame that the first review was not so good. We had a great experience today. The place is now vegetarian and with a lot of vegan options. See my pictures for the menu on June 2021.

Overpriced & a very slow service - Edit
The idea of the concept is great but the execution is poor. Food & drinks are overpriced. 3,50 euro’s for a glass of hot water with a tiny slice of ginger and lemon!!! Very strange that the big glass of latte macchiato has the same price....
Read moreA very tiny salad for 11,50, we asked vegan but still goat cheese in the salad. The dish with libanese flatbread and two dips was not very tasty. Staff is very slow and not educated about the menu or food allergies. They had to ask and double check everything. It was not very busy but everything took ages, there was no structure at all. We gave feedback to the staff about the low value for money feeling. They said they had many complaints about it and would raise it again with the owners. No compensation or offering a drink. They won’t see us again.
It has a lot of potential but they won’t make it if they don’t improve the above feedback. A shame.
Pros: Great building, Live music in the weekends, Cute (thrift) shop
Cons: Overpriced, Very slow service, No knowledge of the menu and allergies
