10/10My wife and I day tripped to Leiden from Amsterdam. Passing down the narrow alley Pieterskerk-Choorsteeg between Pieterskerk and the Stadhuis plaza we noticed the restaurant Puur, and decided to stay in Leiden for dinner there. The restaurant opens at 5 p.m. and we were the first guests, although many others soon followed. Our hostess, Virginia, was delightful and most accommodating. She gave us a window table on the alley and took our drink and dinner orders, despite her cast on a broken right arm from a recent accident. She recommended a Romanian white wine (described both as Chardonnay and Sauvignon blanc) which was perfect with our meal. My wife started with a scallops dish which had a heavenly sauce with traces of vanilla. I had a large smoked salmon sushi (with an incredibly seasoned rice base) and with a mild wasabi sauce that was perfect. Both dishes were delivered to our table by the Chef, Cooke, who attended to us through out the meal. For main dishes, my wife had halibut, again in a very delicious sauce, and I had risotto with vegetables and prawns. The risotto sauce was like no other I have had. Together with bread, water, mint tea and Remy Martin cognac, the bill was 127 euro, a real bargain. After returning to Amsterdam I looked at the reviews for the restaurant on Trip Advisor. I cannot understand the couple of recent negative reviews— unless they were malicious feints. Puur is a gem of a restaurant which I will recommend unreservedly.

7.5/10It was a nice dinner however service took a while and the food came really quick when ordered. Food was nice but didnt feel particuarly special to other places. We had 30% off with the food so with that the cost of dinner was good. It didnt wow us to go back.

9/10This is our fifth dinner at Puur. Food quality is amazing, great ambience and location. Only one disappointing point that our favourite dish coquilles were excluded from Fork discount without any warning on the website. We always order this starter and it felt like it was excluded from the promotion only for us. Despite that it's definitely our favourite restaurant in the old city of Leiden. We will be back!

Dear, we always like to see you come back and are always happy with you as a guest! Unfortunately, the scallops are a too expensive a dish to give a discount. Of course, that also applies to everyone. Until next time, we look forward to it. kind regards, Kok & Virginia

7.5/10It was a slow start with many things going wrong. However, the waitress was trying her best to make our evening enjoyable. We had a bit of the feeling that we were dining in the Faulty Towers ????. Regarding food we could praise fish dishes, especially coquilles and heilbot, highly recommended. The black Angus steak was very good in taste but tough and chewy. All in all it was a great experience. We will be back!

Thank you for your response. we hope everything was okay, we would like to see you back another time. kind regards, Team Puur.

10/10We had a lovely time. The food and wine were great. The rillette starter was especially tasty. One item: you serve milk-free ice cream. My wife indicated that she's lactose free, but the ice cream was served with whipped cream. It's important to make these connections when a customer mentions them.

Best, I am glad that you had a good experience of the evening. we also only work with plant based cream for all creams and sauces. and is they are lactose free. we hope to see you again! Kind regards , Team pure

8.5/10The service was in principle good, just it seemed they were understaffed so it was a bit slower (dishes not taken away as fast, slow for waitress to come by etc). For the rest, food was delicious, very able to cater to vegan needs. Friendly staff.

4.5/10From the beginning, service was terrible. My wife was already seated when I arrived & I was told to wait until my table was free!We had to ask to see menus, our side orders were forgotten & no one asked if we wanted a dessert! They didn’t apply the discount to the bill! Food was tasty enough but there are superior restaurants in Leiden for a portion of the price! Was disappointed.

2/10Worst restaurant ever. Nervous server offered us a Presecco on eventually being seated which we thought was free but had to pay for. Had to ask for a menu and waited 2 hours to get main courses. The food was salty and strange sauces. I complained on numerous occasions and asked to see the manager who refused 3 times to see us. The waiters apologized for the poor service saying they were busy and chaotic so therefore poor food and service should be acceptable. On complaining to the waitresses they were young and inexperienced and couldn’t handle it. Our bread went to the wrong table as did our wine. Complete shambles
