Nestled in the heart of Sittard, Lunchroom Guava offers a cozy and inclusive brunch experience for food lovers who appreciate inclusivity and quality. At Guava, the focus is on creating a welcoming atmosphere where everyone can enjoy delicious meals crafted from fresh and high-quality ingredients. Their diverse menu caters to various dietary preferences, including halal, gluten-free, lactose-free, vegan, and vegetarian options.
Charming Atmosphere and Seating
Though the lunchroom is small, it exudes a cozy and inviting atmosphere, with charming (pink) decor that gives off true lunchroom and coffee shop vibes. Due to its limited seating, especially during the busy lunch rush, it’s highly recommended to call ahead or book a table via their website to ensure availability. I made a reservation ahead of time, so we were sure we could be seated and had a good table. The seating arrangement is intimate, so when the space is full, you may find yourself sitting close to neighboring tables. Personally, I don’t mind the close seating – it adds to the cozy, community feel of the place!
Convenient Location
Located in the city center, Lunchroom Guava is easily accessible and just a short walk from the Sittard train station – approximately a 10-minute stroll. Its central location makes it an excellent choice for both locals and visitors looking for a convenient and enjoyable dining spot.
A Diverse and Extensive Menu
The menu at Lunchroom Guava is impressively extensive, offering a wide variety of food and drinks at reasonable prices. Beverage options include soft drinks, coffees, teas, homemade iced teas, and smoothies, while the food menu boasts bagels, pancakes, waffles, grilled sandwiches, omelets, and more. One of the standout features of this eatery is its exceptional accommodation of dietary restrictions. You can customize many items on the menu to suit your preferences, such as substituting different milk options, decaf coffee or vegan whipped cream for your pancakes or waffles. Keep in mind, some customizations may come at an additional cost, but it’s definitely worth it for those with specific dietary needs and it’s great that the restaurant makes it possible to accommodate to these needs.
During my visit, I brought a friend with celiac disease, and I have lactose intolerance. The staff was incredibly accommodating, taking the time to explain ingredient substitutions and allergy-friendly options. We both ordered iced coffees with whipped cream and chocolate – mine with white chocolate and my friend’s with milk chocolate. They substituted almond milk for me and provided a vegan whipped cream option.
Delicious Waffles and Satisfying Portions!
For food, we both enjoyed their waffles. I chose the “Muy Bueno,” topped with Bueno chocolates and Bueno sauce (which was absolutely divine!). My friend opted for the “Red Kisses,” featuring strawberries and white chocolate sauce. Both came with some whipped cream as well. Vegan for me again of course! The waffles were made from a gluten-free mix, with almond milk used to cater to dietary needs. They were warm, crispy, and perfectly complemented by their toppings! Portions were generous, leaving us both feeling satisfied. The prices were also reasonable, with pancakes costing €11.95 and iced coffees priced at €5.50, making it a great value for the quality and portion sizes.
Exceptional Service and Customer Care
The staff at Lunchroom Guava were exceptionally friendly, patient, and attentive! Their dedication to inclusivity and customer care truly enhanced the experience. I would highly recommend this place to anyone, especially those with dietary restrictions! I will definitely be returning for another visit!
