Loved it there, very unique cafe, Lots of artwork all around. Very calm, the gentleman behind the bar was a nice man to talk to. Went there for a few beers after work, very satisfied interaction. It's not very large, the cafe is quite old, if you are just happy to take the environment as it is, you'll be happy too.

Den Witten Uil is run by the owner who has had this pub as long as I have lived… it is very quirky, together with the owner who is a character. The place is filled with Art and his own artwork drawings. It has a lovely quiet terrace at the rear. Good choice of beers. If you like beer, a quirky and quiet place to drink and have an open sense of humour, then this place is for you.
