    Delicious creative food, well dressed in a nice and quiet ambiance. FOOD: Man what a wonderful food experience. A unexpected mix of delicious ingredients that are perfectly prepared, with some unexpected surprises that just top off the experience. The combinations are a bit daring but turn out great. This chef really understands how different specific preparations of ingredients can blend into a great taste together. Don’t get scared off if you’re not into potatoes. It’s not potato dishes, they just also use potatoes in the dishes, and it fits. MENU There are >50% vegetarian options, and a vegan. They have enough drink options including alcohol free beer and the best gingerbeer brand. AMBIANCE The place is not too big and well dressed. It’s a place that emanates food enjoyment so in my case other guests were also keeping the volume down. They don’t play music, the personnel is quiet and takes their time for things, so I imagine it’s always this nice. All in all, a wonderful experience to be your guest, I’m definitely coming back and bringing others who will love this too. Thank you! -edit- already went back again and can confirm it’s also a great place for lunch. Thanks again!

    Very nice place. One of the best waiter ever (bold guy with amazing mustaches). My wife was pregnant and he went back to the chef to ask what was pregnant friendly, giving a very detailed explanation when back. The food was amazing, with fancy combinations. Maybe a bit pricy (we paid 42 euros in 2), but totally worth the price.

    Absolutely fantastic food and service. Such a surprise of flavor in each bite. Some of the most unique and fresh food I have ever had. Local and fresh ingredients. I wish they had one near my home, but will be worth another trip to Breda!

    It is quite the choice making a restaurant focused on just potatoes, yet at "De jongens van zand en klei" they manage to pull it off. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and food. They are enthusiastic and it feels like they are dedicated to the cause of putting the potato in the spotlight. The menu offers vegetarian options, but is otherwise compact. It is wise to start with the starter plate in the picture, which offers you several bite size snacks dedicated fully to the potato, but pack quite the palette of flavours. The main courses get served in a 'potato bowl', as shown in the second photo. It uses excellent products to make up a tasteful dish, incorporating several types of vegetables, but again, making good use of the potato. There can also be had a good variety of desserts. In conclusion, a nice looking restaurant that has friendly and professional staff serving good food!

    Absolutely love the delicious meals these people have created with the ol' potato as their favorite ingredient. With great variation in flavors and appearances they truly managed to 'make the potato great again'. Staff is super friendly and the restaurant itself is modern, industrial but still surprisingly cozy. Fantastic work guys!

    Unique twist on common food items. Incorporating potato in each dish is every potato lover's dream. Specially loved the combination of flavours, especially the appetizers. And the crunchy potato basket! Loved the idea. Definitely worth a visit in Breda!

    Delicious food celebrating the potato! Super friendly staff and a great atmosphere. Also a good selection of beers on offer including some local greats.

  • 5/5 Shlomo W. 1 year ago on Google
    We came 5 min before kitchen close so we took the friendly waiter advice and ordered tapas plate for 2, which do not require any selection. It was really nice, lots of small stuff with potato in each. Especially the one with oyster mushrooms (right) was very good.

    Great service! Came late on a weekday night, servers were upfront and knowledgeable about the menu. I followed every of their recommendations and loved every single one. The pina colada dessert is a must try.

    Very original restaurant when we can have a plate of tapas in which most are vegetarian 🌱 The decoration and service were amazing. The food was correct and very filling, just that only veggie felt a bit too much on the tongue by the end. Recommend to try though 😄

    Lovely and amazing place. The food is simply perfect, I don't often review places but I'm writing this review while eating. Wholeheartedly recommend this food

😠 I ate here with a large group of friends some ordered pizza some pasta me and my boyfriend took both pasta and we decided to also share a pizza on top cause we couldn’t choose. I can speak for at least half of our group that the food was extremely mediocre. 13€ for pasta that literally had no taste!...
