We have always enjoyed staying at the Postillion in the past. Unfortunately the owner must have changed, so we were now very disappointed. The food was still good, but unfortunately the service has deteriorated massively. Our glasses sat empty on the table for a very long time and ordering more was difficult because the waiters apparently didn't see us (even though the restaurant wasn't very busy). It's a real shame, but we ended the evening with drinks at home.Conclusion: food 🔝, service 👎🏻

After a long time we went back to eat at Postillion, but unfortunately we were totally disappointed after the visit.The food was very good, but the new owner behaved impossibly. We were actually always satisfied with the service. The woman behind the bar was very friendly and accommodating, but the new owner, who also waits, behaved impossibly. Totally arrogant, in a bad mood and complained about his employees in front of the guests. Furthermore, we were totally hit on by him because we took a voucher from the old owner. However, it says “Postillion” on it and is from 2023 and there was no indication that it is no longer valid because he is the new owner. We used to be very happy with the restaurant, but now we are no longer guests.

We were invited to dinner there. The restaurant is on the street, you can't miss it.Very tastefully decorated, beautiful table decorations and a great, not too full menu that was easy to read. We had salmon, liver and pork medallions with chanterelles in cream sauce and very tasty "fries". I can recommend it!
