Café Carèl Utrecht Reviews
Complaint about extremely rude behaviour by a waiter
We visited Cafe Carel in Utrecht on 13 September 2025 at around 16:25. We were a family group of 3 adults and 3 young children (aged 3, 4, and 8). We ordered drinks and ate a small pastry we had brought with us, not knowing that this was not allowed.

The ambiance is so unique and lovely--Olivier is in a beautifully restored old church including a giant very Dutch pipe organ (non-functional...I think). Huge selection of beer and the food looks fab.
not satisfied with the lunch here
I had lunch at this restaurant with two friends today, May 9th, 2025, from 11.00-13.00. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with the service. First, my friend and I asked to take our food to go since we were getting full, but they told us there was no

Came here with a group of 10 for lunch on a hot day in Holland. Service was great. Delicious beers and bitterballen. I had a brodje krocket - super soft bread and their krockets were delicious! This is a really cool spot inside an old church so i alw
Old church turned into a bar.
Very old school vibes, definitely can feel the ambiance was once filled amongst the history of the greats chatting beside a proper beer chowing down on their bitterballens and frites. Lots of choices of tap beer, you won't be bored. I like a goo

Came here after a long cold day of shopping- decent choice of beers/snacks! This is in an old church- so, that explains why there are statues of "Jesus and Mary" looking at you! Odd, but the bitterballen made up for all of that! They were
Very neat and unique spot for a drink and some food.
. There's commentary that it may have been an old church. That seems pretty clear to me - there is an organ, and the space screams religion. I just sat at the bar and had some beer and a snack. Friendly service, decent prices and a great amb
Amazing place! Highly recommended by me.

Connect with users posting reservations for Café Carèl Utrecht
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Café Carèl Utrecht. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Café Carèl Utrecht at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Café Carèl Utrecht page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* PerceptiveWash44, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* PerceptiveWash44 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to PerceptiveWash44 for any questions Peter may have as PerceptiveWash44 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* PerceptiveWash44 now uses their connections at Café Carèl Utrecht to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If PerceptiveWash44 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, PerceptiveWash44 receives the $200 reward which is credited to PerceptiveWash44's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Café Carèl Utrecht!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
