What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Polles Kitchen is celebrated for its enchanting atmosphere and the wide variety of delicious pancakes offered, especially within the Efteling theme park. While many praise the fast service and child-friendly features like 'magic water,' some diners have found certain pancake preparations to be too thick, doughy, or overly salty, leading to mixed experiences with taste and texture.
"The service is outstanding, the food was great and we got a very nice table. All of the waitresses were very nice and considerate, food was ready very fast and it's a big portion. The only thing we didn't like was the shaved ice drinks, they are very cold and way too sweet to enjoy, but overall I cannot complain. I strongly recommend!"

"Excellent pancakes, not overly expensive for a theme park. Well themed restaurant, with friendly staff. Kids get magic water where they have to find the golden duck, and the glasses they have glow different colours.
We had one ham, mushroom, and cheese, one hot cherry and cream, one kids heart pancake, and one waffles and sauce. All great!
We reserved a table in advance."

"The salty pancakes were really not to my taste. The bacon was much too salty and the pancake itself not tasty. Maybe the sweet kids pancake was better.
They did have a gluten free version for my friend, though .
And they won’t give you a jar with tap water."
