Nice but busy place - Edit
This branch of Broei is still fully plant-based (since 2022), unlike the one in Amersfoort.
Read moreThe staff is nice and I love the atmosphere. It’s usually busy though. The early mornings tend to be more quiet.
Some foods I love are some Broei burgers (recipe varies frequently), loaded fries, shakshuka, fried dumplings and sandwiches with ‘egg’ salad, with ‘tuna’ salad and with tempeh sateh. Also nice are banana bread with chutney, cinnamon roll (by Lavett), ‘boterkoek’, lemon/pistachio shortbread and many homemade drinks. They offer some decent pies by Life’s a peach as well, e.g. cheesecake and pear tarte.
However, they sometimes offer items that barely contain a protein source, which is a pity.
Please check my pictures for reviews per item.

Nice lunch, but was expecting more - Edit
We were here at lunch time.
Read moreGoing by the reviews, we were expecting more of a 'restaurant feel'. Had no idea the lunch menu (more light items like sandwich, soup etc) was totally different than the dinner menu (more gastronomic?).
We had:
- kombucha 4,50€
- rhurbarb lemonade 4€
- soup of the day (mushroom) 8€
- sandwich with mushroom kroket 12,75€
- sandwich knack wortel (a carrot) 11,75€
- gyozas 8,5€
Nice dishes. But lots of bread. The soup was very nice. The mushroom krokettes had no real distinct flavour.
A nice place, with lots of kombucha pots brewing. Nice! Full house and it was a bit loud, especially with several small children next to us.
Def make a reservation. Saw several people being turned away.
Stepfree entrence, didnt see an accessible toilet. Toilets on ground floor. Clean.

Lekker en mooi - Edit
Werkelijk iedere gang is niet alleen erg lekker, maar ziet er ook mooi uit. Chefkok Niels kookt op hoog niveau voor een zeer schappelijke prijs. De sfeer in het restaurant is relaxt, de bediening is enthousiast en vriendelijk.

Heel lekker - Edit
Hier voor de lunch. Pancakes.
Read moreSuper lekker hoewel die van m’n lunchgenoot eigenlijk te zwarte kantjes hadden om nog te serveren.
Superleuke plek, goed gegeten, maar net geen 5* ervaring.

Verfijnd en verrassend - Edit
Indrukwekkend 4 gangen menu. Iedere gang was mooi in balans met ieder zijn eigen karakteristieke smaak. Bediening was snel en vriendelijk. Toen het wat langer duurde kregen we een drankje van het huis. Aanrader voor een lekker avondje tafelen.

Verrassend verjaarsdiner! - Edit
Ik koos Broei voor mijn verjaardagsetentje! En dat was goed! Ik kook zelf graag dus ben kritisch. De ambiance is informeel en gezellig, voelt als een grote huiskamer. Hoe buitengewoon zijn dan de gerechten. We deden de "full monty": 5 gangen. De gerechten starten steeds vanuit groenten of paddestoelen. En steeds als een schilderij op het bord gedrapeerd. De samenstelling van de gerechten geeft een rijke smaak; je tong proeft steeds een (gefermenteerd) zuurtje, een zoetje, een bittertje. En door keuze van bijzondere groenten zoals schorseneren, truffelaardappel, aardpeer en kousenband ervaar je bij elke hap een rijke en vaak verrassende smaak. Daarbij werden we verrast door originele bereidingswijzen: boerenkoolchips, korkante linzen, gratin, etc.. Vooral wanneer je de vijf gangen neemt ervaar je de rijkheid, de variatie en daarmee het kookplezier van de chef. Samen met de attente, vriendelijke en behulpzame bediening had ik zo een heerlijk verjaarsdiner
Read morePros: bijzondere groenten, groenten van het seizoen, uitstekende chef, geweldige smaak
Cons: mist wat proteinen zoals peulvruchten,noten,quinoa

Favo plekje - Edit
Wij eten hier heel graag en iedereen die we meenemen van familie tot vrienden vindt het ook heerlijk. Vriendelijke bediening, toegankelijke en knusse sfeer, heerlijke gerechten van de seizoenskaart. Een van de beste vegan opties in Utrecht.

Interesting plant-based menu - Edit
Lovely place to have lunch with a strong plant-based menu. Generous portions and interesting twists on well-known favourite meals. Busy at lunch time so worth making a reservation if you're with a group of people.

One of the best - Edit
This is one of the best restaurants in Utrecht. It is very good, but it’s not great. I tried the 5 course seasonal menu and 3 out of the 5 were delicious. One was mediocre and one was with overcooked buckweat (yes, it was a risotto but still..). Very friendly staff and cozy atmosphere.

Had a delicious Bahn Mi sandwich and good cappuccino’s. Although the sandwich itself would even have been better if it had been a sourdough, I give 5 stars.

A Summer must-visit - Edit
I went here for lunch today and had an amazing experience. The waiter was very kind and immediately brought out a water bowl for Saar🦮. The kitchen still made me pancakes even though it was already past noon. My sister got the oyster mushroom kroketten without mayo. Both were very good, the pancakes might’ve been the best I’ve had. We also loved the rose lemonade and dirty chai, but it would’ve been nice to have more plantbased milk options. I am not completely sure why the recently opened location in Amersfoort has a bigger menu though as the one in Utrecht has limited options. The furniture and decoration are pretty and unique and the outdoor seating space is also very cosy even though it is adjacent to the street. I would definitely recommend going here for lunch this summer if you’re looking for chill vibes and nice food.
Read morePros: Friendly staff, Limited but delicious options.
Cons: They only serve oat milk.

Nice place to go and have an easy lunch, but that’s it. It’s not like you can compare it to Kasvio or The Nieuwe Winkel. I had the croquettes with bread and a cappuccino.

Fijne sfeer en lekker eten - Edit
Hebben hier goed geluncht. Kwaliteit van het eten is goed en ze hebben leuke gerechten op de kaart staan. Ik had de shakshuka. Was erg lekker maar portie had iets groter gekund. Aardig personeel alleen jammer dat ze nadat het eten geserveerd was ons niet meer zagen zitten. Het was wel druk maar was fijn geweest als iemand nog even langs was geweest voor nog een rondje drinken. Gevraagd om de rekening maar die vergat men ook. Anders was het perfect geweest.
