    It’s only the second time we’ve eaten at The Fig & Thistle, but we will finitely be returning soon. The food was out of “the top drawer” and the service was exceptional. Thank you especially to Abdulla our host and waiter for the evening, you made it a very memorable occasion!

    Heerlijk gegeten hier. De haggisburger en de zalm waren top. Het toetje, de chocolate and baileys marquise was een feestje. Waar we vooral enthousiast over waren was de bediening. Heerlijk gebabbeld, ontzettend grappige man. Hij heeft onze avond gemaakt! Dankjewel voor de goede vriendelijke service. En wie weet zien we ooit in Amsterdam!

    The service and food was absolutely incredible. My husband got an Old Fashion, which he is very particular about, and he said it was one of the best he’s had. Food was amazing, I got the spinach and goat cheese pizza and I haven’t stopped thinking about it since we ate there. Extremely good, you must go!
