"I have always been dreaming about having a restaurant with an informal atmosphere, where people can eat delicious food, drink great wines and enjoy real good service" says Elroy, the owner of Bistro Flores. "A restaurant where people can escape from daily life for a moment. This results in guests telling me they have 'a holiday feeling'. That is a wonderful compliment".
The beginning
"After I finished my studies (Event Management in Utrecht), I started working at an office. Not for me, I need a hectic life", tells Elroy. "I found that now. The combination of entrepreneurship and hospitality, striving to deliver guests an unforgettable evening and get energy of that. That is good"!
“The wow-effect of the heated cushions hits hard!”
The courtyard
Since a few weeks Bistro Flores has a roof above the popular courtyard. "Because of the roof, I can offer my guests more quality and space". Bistro Flores is known as a lovely place to sit, even when you have to wait a few minutes while your table is getting ready. Due to the comfortable Sit & Heat cushions waiting to be seated is no longer a problem.
The wow-effect
Elroy only hands out the Sit & Heat cushions when guests feel cold. For example to guests who sit next to the front door, which opens constantly. "When I hand out the cushions, I do not tell them then that they get warm. Instead I tell the guests to wait for a little while. This results in very happy and surprised people. The cushions have a huge ‘wow’ effect".
