Au Coin des Bons Enfants

This is one of the best restaurants in the town. Though it’s not star-​rated anymore, the food is still amazing and the setting is very nice. Highly recommended, if you don’t want to spend a fortune.

Au Coin des Bons Enfants
Is in my knowledge and experience it is the best restaurant in Maastricht. It has to be. It is very well known in Maastricht for good ambience and delicious food. and for their one Michelin star which they won for their good food.
This restaurant is pretty much unique is all aspects. It is nestled in the old city just a hop and skip from the main market squares. The restaurant from the outside looks like an old farm house but inside is a hidden gem.
The atmosphere is very French, modern, and fresh, it feels like a villa in the French countryside, I guess it has to do that they have an open terrace which is covered with grape vines all along the roof and a charming modern fountain giving it a very relaxed atmosphere.
The restaurant is pretty amazing and hosts local artist’s paintings which you can buy.
The service is very personal. The hostess and waitress tends to your every need, we sat of a party of 4 outside in terrace which was lovely. We already had a 4 course meal booked as it was the night of the open air concert Andre rieu. I forgot to tell them I didnt eat fish or shell fish and they quickly solved that, 4 course meal felt like a 9 course as between every course came a little welcome and treat from the kitchen. Each course came with a different selection of wines to compliment the dish. I was completely full after the 2^nd course. After dessert we though yeah we made it but with coffee and tea came a selection of miniature cakes and then came a layout of home made chocolate truffles which was just too good to leave behind.
The price is pretty pricey, I would say top end for Maastricht. But for atmosphere, evening and food it is simply a great deal. The evening was really great. The hostess and staff I have to say are really friendly, they come and chat to you and make sure everything is up to standards and that not only are you enjoying your meal but also the whole experience. The chef also comes out and makes sure you enjoying your meal.
I personally and my guests had a wonderful evening, a really good choice and I recommend that if your either looking for a night out in Maastricht or something really unique to experience in culinary than I would highly recommend you enjoy an evening at au coin des bons Enfants.
