    Legit the best sandwich I’ve had in my 37 years on this mortal plane. The bread was crispy but soft, the chicken cooked to perfection right before my eyes, the tomatoes and arugula fresh and flavorful. I will dream of this sandwich for years to come. Be prepared to sit and enjoy a kaffe, chat and rest as everything is made in house to order.

    Some of the most humble, welcoming and genuinely good-hearted people own and work at this place. I have been here relatively often and everytime they were able to provide me with a full 10/10 service. Food is impeccable and the ingredients are very fresh as can also be deduced by the amazing taste of their dishes. Highly recommended place, that you should absolutely visit in Utrecht.

    The food and drinks are great, original, fresh and tasty, but the owners are the real stars. Two Iranian brothers who cook and serve the tables, having named the place after the polish cartoon that they loved in their childhood. It's not often that you come across such incredibly nice and positive people. They alone are worth the visit!

    Maybe the best sandwich I have ever eaten. Worth the price. Quality products housemade, tasty and well looking, it smells fresh food. The italian place holders are very nice and welcoming. Quick delivery and global service. That's a perfect

    The best sandwich ever! We stopped by Utrecht for lunch and I’m so happy we chose to eat at Pampalini. Such friendly staff, super welcoming from the moment we entered. We sat outside and enjoyed our sandwiches which were amazing! Perhaps the best we’ve ever had 🀩 If you want to enjoy a nice breakfast/brunch/lunch in Utrecht I couldn’t reccoment Pampalini more!

    By far the best sandwich I've ever had! I would actually consider traveling to Utrecht just for the sandwich. The service and hospitality was also amazing. If you are nearby you should definitely stop by!

    We were looking for a place to eat lunch and went to Pampalini because of the excellent reviews. The food tastes really good and fresh, it looks great too. The service was awesome and the staff were very kind. Pampalini has a nice and cozy atmosphere but isn't too overwhelming. I'm happy to leave a 5 star review of my own!

    Excellent place to enjoy the lunch time. After a long cycling, I got a fruit yogurt (7€) and herbal mix tea (4,5€), which were so tasty and healthy. The stuff are very friendly and helpful. I enjoyed the music playlist inside, but you can also sit and enjoy the sun outside. Beside the breakfast, there are also sandwiches in the menu if you prefer. Enjoy!

    Just found the cozy store on Google and it turned out to be a wonderful place to hang out with friends! Enjoyed my time here! And plus, the dishes are great as well!

  • 5/5 John h. 1 year ago on Google
    Very cute place! We were hesitant at first seeing 4.9 star review, is it possible? We went early and was lucky as it was a weekday and were able to get a table. We were hungry so ordered quite a bit, I had an omelet and tea and smoothie. My colleague had a sandwich, smoothie and coffee. The food and drinks was great, we ended up chatting with the owner a bit and he was very charming and the service was great as well, wish we could have stayed a bit longer to chat. Definitely deserves a 5 star review and I will be back anytime I am in Utrecht.

    The coffee is so good and the place is lovely!! Super friendly environment for relaxing and also studying! Will definitely come back again🌞🌞

  • 5/5 Jasmin L. 2 years ago on Google
    The reviews don't lie - this is a lovely and very friendly place. The baguette and soup was excellent. My favourite on the menu (so far) was the Persian-inspired cold drink called 'pampalini mix', which has a delicious but delicate rose and mint flavour. Will be coming back to try the rest of the menu.

  • 5/5 Daniela Maria Torres A. 2 years ago on Google
    The food and drinks at Pampalini are delicious! The two owners and staff are incredibly kind, and go above and beyond to ensure your experience at their restaurant is remarkable! Their coffee is also really well roasted. I would definitely recommend this place for a quick bite or lunch :)

  • 5/5 Niamh S. 2 years ago on Google
    Went here for a coffee and a croissant. The croissant was warm and delicious and the coffee was the best we’ve had in Utrecht! Service by Ben was fantastic and very welcoming. We will be back!

  • 5/5 Vasudha B. 2 years ago on Google
    Loved the ambience. It's got a very friendly and nice vibe. The food was also very good. The bread was very fresh and all the ingredients used were also very fresh. The portion size was huge and the price very reasonable. I would definitely recommend it. I had a great lunch afternoon with my friend.

    Make sure to visit these super friendly brothers for a delicious lunch and the best service of Utrecht. Both the sandwiches and the warm lunch are commendable. 6 out of 5 stars.

  • 5/5 L.J. B. 1 year ago on Google
    Super friendly staff, great atmosphere, great coffee, and their vegan soup is amazing!!! Not a common flavour for vegan food, so worth it if you're looking for something wholesome, warm, and rich. Prices are fair but it's not something I could afford frequently. But I recommend it if you're trying to treat yourself for lunch.

  • 5/5 Marit K. 2 years ago on Google
    Best place for a delicious lunch and fresh tea or coffee. The owners are so hospitable, the food is great quality (I’ve had the grilled halloumi sandwich which I can really recommend) and I get a fresh tea almost every week, they have a great variety. Definitely a favourite in Utrecht!

  • 5/5 Ashwath V. 2 years ago on Google
    Small unassuming cafe but exceptional food. They have earned their rating for sure.

  • 5/5 Maybritt 1 year ago on Google
    A real gem! The food is absolutely wonderful and the people are so friendly; felt welcome from the moment we entered. Had a very tasty Pampalini salad. However, the Tahchin was the highlight; so delicious! Have tried several Persian restaurants in the Netherlands and Belgium, but nowhere as tasty as here!
