Ter Marsch & Co - Rotterdam

First a big disclaimer: I'm a vegetarian, so a hamburger joint is probably not the most logical choice for me. Still, I want to share my opinion so that fellow vegetarians (and others) may find it helpful. 🪑 setting - You can sit inside (two floors, environment reminiscent of a pub, everything a bit tight and narrow and not really very comfortable seating). Outside there is a terrace, covered with a large awning and parasols and equipped with patio heating. However, we saw people smoking there, so we sat inside. The music was super loud (Friday evening), the three of us sat around a small table and had difficulty hearing each other. We also sat next to the toilet that opens directly into the dining area (upstairs), so there was a less pleasant smell around our table every time someone went in or out. 🧑‍🍳 service -.Five stars for the service. Very friendly, quick and regularly checked if everything was in order. 🥗 the food - I wasn't blown away by it. Of course I opted for a vegetarian hamburger. Even though the menu states that almost all burgers can be served with a vegetarian patty, there are in reality only three options that can easily be converted to a vegetarian version without having to remove many ingredients. My burger was okay, but not very special. The bun was nice and soft, but the patty honestly looked like a vegetable burger from the supermarket. For the price you pay here for a burger, I would have expected something like the patty from Beyond Meat. My table companions had a meat burger and they liked it. The fries were very good and it was no problem to serve the sausage separately. Tried the Snickers tiramisu for dessert. The first few bites were tasty, then it was very difficult because it was very sweet. 🍹 the drinks - Nice menu, a number of beers on tap including their own brew and also some nice cocktails. 🌱 Dietary requirements - Vegan food is possible but not very special. I saw that they also have gluten-free sandwiches. 🚽 facilities - A spacious and clean toilet. 💰 Value for money - Not for me personally, but possibly for a meat eater. The burgers are certainly not cheap, but they are slightly more special in terms of ingredients than in most other comparable places.

We already came with our homework done and we knew that this burger restaurant was excellent and it was. I have eaten the classic version with chicken and I loved it and the bread was excellent. The fries are exquisite. The service is good and the atmosphere is diverse as the area dictates. Value for money is good. Gluten-free options. I didn't like that you can't ask for the doneness of the meat. They don't have decaffeinated coffee.
