    When you get in, you feel there's a genuine effort into the setting to give this pancake restaurant the old Dutch barn feel. Almost all Dutch pancake restaurants in the Netherlands look like old barns but this place is going the extra mile to make you feel you are travelling back in time to the old days when you are eating there. The pancakes taste good no question mark. The service is par with Dutch standard. The downside is the price: it's understandable that they want to charge you for the experience, but they are off by about 20%.

    Beautiful setting in an old farmhouse, with all the original features. Nice sunny terrace. Gigantic choice of pancakes and stuffing!!! All fresh-made, friendly staff. Perfect for children, dogs allowed. Wonderful experience for a lunch or dinner with friends and family. Highly recommend, and will certainly return for more pancakes 😋

    Heard about pancake farm “The Smickel” from a friend yesterday and couldn’t resist going there today. The farm’ish setting and the vibe is really amazing. And I can imagine if you bring your kids they will remember it for life. The staff is very friendly and skilled. Everything is very clean and pro kids. The restaurant floor (inside) has some hight difference, but with some effort it’s wheelchair accessible. The menu has a great selection of pancakes and beverages. The coffee was not so good but the chocolate milk was great what i hear. The pancake I had was quite heavy. The free parking is some what limited on the terrain, luckily you can park in the street also. Enjoy!

    Great atmosphere and amazing cost place for lunch or dinner. You have to get into the mood and stay hidden in the little corners of the room, deciphering riddles while waiting for your hot food! The prices are on a higher level, but we were lucky to get in with the whole November - 30% discount on pannenkoeken, so don't miss up your chance! :) tip, if you don't want to leave the plate half full or take it home - order kleine portion of pizza-pancake, dat is meer San genoeg 😂 Very tasty, highly recommended!

    Very atmospheric pancake restaurant. They have very tasty pancakes and even the small ones are large portions. Also I was delightfully surprised they have gluten-free batter. Very happy with that. They have ‘panza’s’ on the menu which are pancakes but prepared like pizza with cheese gratin on top. Loved that concept of the panza. there is a also big playground for kids. And the interior is just very ‘gezellig’ (Dutch word that describes homey, Cosy places)

    (Translated by Google) Quite expensive pancakes. Too bad the bacon was burnt. Had some of it but was too late to report. Just paid the price. The rest of the bacon removed. (Original) Best dure pannenkoeken . Jammer dat de spek verbrand was. Had er wel wat van gegeten maar was te laat met melden. Gewoon de prijs betaald. De rest van spek er af gehaald.

    (Translated by Google) Delicious pancake on. They have an extensive map. Batter is gluten, lactose and soy free. Vegan batter is also possible. Also nice desserts and friendly service (Original) Heerlijke pannenkoek op. Ze hebben een uitgebreide kaart. Beslag is gluten, lactose- en sojavrij. Eventueel ook veganistisch beslag mogelijk. Ook fijne toetjes en vriendelijke bediening

    (Translated by Google) Lots of different types of pancakes. Friendly service. Just under 5 stars because when it is busy you have to wait longer until you are served. (Original) Veel verschillende soorten pannenkoeken. Vriendelijke bediening. Net geen 5 sterren omdat als het druk is je langer moet wachten tot je geholpen wordt.

    I recommend this place if you want to take kids and have a fun night for them, the decorations and the place is really cute and cozy, they even have a kids menu. But the pancakes are not the best, the quality can be better, the baken on my pancake was supper salty, We asked to change and they were very nice about it.

    (Translated by Google) Cozy and cozy pancake restaurant. (Original) Gezellige en knusse pannenkoeken restaurant.

  • 4/5 Bauke J. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I came here to bring 2 pancakes. That's where it starts, because what a cool idea to offer that. That may also remain after corona. What also struck me was the fun the kitchen crew had together. Crazy voices and kidding each other. That pleasure is the best advertisement for the restaurant. So, in addition to the excellent pancakes and the nice property, keep it! From now on I will drive past the Kabouterhut (the local pancake shed) from Amersfoort and a little further to the Smickel. (Original) Ik kwam hier 2 pannenkoeken meenemen. Daar begint het al, want wat een gaaf idee om dat aan te bieden. Dat mag ook na corona blijven. Wat me verder opviel was de lol die de keukenploeg met elkaar had. Gekke stemmetjes en elkaar in de maling nemen. Dat plezier is de beste reclame voor het restaurant. Houden dus, naast de uitstekende pannenkoeken en het leuke pand! Voortaan rijd ik vanuit Amersfoort de Kabouterhut (de lokale pannekoekenschuur) voorbij en iets verder naar de Smickel.

    Nice tasty pancakes in different flavors. This is an old farm with a garden you can sit in while eating.

    (Translated by Google) Poor parking facilities and especially for the disabled! (Original) Slechte parkeer gelegenheden en vooral voor invalide!

  • 2/5 Casper 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Very expensive for a pancake restaurant !! Inside very old-fashioned and everything (really everything!) Is covered with syrup !! And that in this Corona time! Furthermore, there is little more to do in the 'outdoor playground' than to look at rabbits in a pen ..... (Original) Erg duur voor een pannenkoekenrestaurant!! Binnen zeer oudbollig en alles (echt alles!) Zit onder de stroop!! En dat in deze Corona tijd! Verder is er op de 'buitenspeelplaats' weinig meer te doen dan naar konijnen in een hok te kijken.....

    (Translated by Google) Cutest pancake house with garden! Bunnies and birds and a bouncy castle (Original) Leukste pannenkoekenhuis met tuin! Konijntjes en vogels en een springkussen

  • 5/5 Karen G. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the best pancake restaurants in the Netherlands. The restaurant is quaint and cosy. Food was delicious; they offer a huge range of toppings and they also accommodate any custom requests. The pancakes were light and fluffy with a huge portion of toppings. The service was fantastic and the staff are super friendly. Wonderful experience.

    It is was a nice experience. The restaurant and the pancakes are nice. The staff was friendly but bit unorganized. Kids loved it. They have a bouncing castle outside.

  • 4/5 Rob S. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious pancakes in the very nice big garden underneath big parasols. Only things was the wasps that liked the pancakes as much as we did. Pity, get rid of the wasps!

  • 4/5 Ralph H. 1 year ago on Google
    The restaurant is not cheap, but the food definitely makes up for the price. Service was a bit slow (I think it was our waiters' first day on the job) but we did get good service in the end.

  • 5/5 Sten von K. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place for the whole family . Service lacked only because food came faster than drinks but friendly team and we'll be back

  • 3/5 Beatriz V. 1 year ago on Google
    It tries to recreate the ambiance of an old dutch farm with sand on the ground. The food (pannekoeken especially) is very good. They have discount for a second person if the first is older than 60 years and between 12:00 and 16:00 The service is typical dutch, kind but very cold. They don't cate so much about the clients satisfaction. I would recommend with a 3 for the ambiance and the food.

  • 4/5 Roelant H. 11 months ago on Google
    Lovely spot in traditional barn. Nice garden setting. Delicious pancakes. However, on the expensive side. Average price per pancake around 18 euro. Drinks on the expensive side too.

  • 5/5 Mahamadou S. 4 months ago on Google
    Pancakes are a bit pricey but they are one of the best i ever had. Staff is super friendly and they offer a big range of toppings on the pancakes. My custom request wasn't a problem!

  • 5/5 Evelyn N. 5 months ago on Google
    The pancakes, while they can be pricey are always great. The staff are always friendly. They have a play area inside and out and animals - bunnies. As well as a toy box for children to grab a small toy for free before leaving. This gets a 5th star from me for also having a fairytale atmosphere.

  • 5/5 Robert van S. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Remains a classic in our region. Eat fine pancakes at a pancake house with a great history! A must for young and old! Also for a wonderful sitting in the garden terrace whether it is in the evening or afternoon. 👍 (Original) Blijft een klassieker in onze regio. Fijn pannekoeken eten bij een pannenkoekenhuis met een grote geschiedenis! Een aanrader voor jong en oud! Ook voor een heerlijke zit in de tuin terras of het nu in de avond of middag is. 👍

  • 4/5 Ankush W. 4 years ago on Google
    Picturesque, old world style cafe in the beautiful village of Soestdijk specialising in pancakes. Slightly on the expensive side (about 20€ for a pancake and drink). Quite a good amount of choices and options for made to order pancakes too.Pancakes are large and made with quality ingredients.

  • 5/5 Mark P. 4 years ago on Google
    This is probably the place to be when it comes to real Dutch pancakes. The place really looks and feels authentic. There is room for kids to play and the staff are tuned for dodging running kids etc. Quality of the food itself is really good.

  • 4/5 Hiliana F. 6 years ago on Google
    As #pannenkoekjeslovers (pancake lovers) we wanted to go for an adventure at a different place. My favourite specialty #spek #appel #rozijn (bacon, appel, raisins) was on the menu and it lived up to the expectation. However the coffee and hot chocolate aren't on par... if looking for a coffee this wouldn't be a good chpice. For #Dutchpancakes absolutely!

  • 4/5 Geertje S. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Everything in order, everything neatly with distance, everything according to the rules. Good coffee, tasty apple pie, friendly service. Due to thresholds and small stairs, not wheelchair accessible. Also no disabled toilet. (Original) Alles in orde, alles netjes met afstand, aĺles volgens de regels. Goede koffie, lekker appelgebak, vriendelijke bediening. Vanwege drempels en kleine trapjes niet goed rolstoel toegankelijk. Ook geen invalide toilet.

And with us it is not nearly as delicious as at Smickel Soest. Until next time (Original) bij binnenkomst al een feest!! Zeer kindvriendelijk super gastheer en attente serveersters.(het is ook een feest om tezien hoe ze de pannekoeken bakken) heerlijk gegeten met mijn familie we komen zelf uit Amsterdam(pannekoekenhuis Amsterdamsebos).en bij ons is het nog lang niet zo verrukkelijk als bij Smickel Soest . Tot de volgende keer

So a little dry (Original) Wir fanden es etwas zu teuer . War ok. Wir hatten aber irgendwie was anderes erwartet. Muss sosse. Alles was drauf ist, ist auf dem Teig. Also etwas trocken

    Delicious pancakes with lots of option for toppings. Quite pricey

  • 1/5 Daniella L. 4 years ago on Google
    Great ambience. Bad points: the coffee is horrid, you're not offered a selection of teas when you order tea. The first round our pancake came with sugar or carbon ashes on it and only baked on 1 side. They offer no alternatives to pancakes for people with allergies especially milk allergy. The kid's pancake does not come with a surprise though it's stated that it does. Another really really bad point is how pushy the waiters are. We didn't even finish our drinks before they offered us 3 times if we wanted more. And even when we stated no thank you, the waitress asked our daughter if she wanted anyway!! No way in hell that we'll be coming back.
