Review from Utrecht Pub Guide:

http://www.xs4all.nl/~patto1ro/utrepubs.htm

 

You're probably getting the idea now that my main concern is in finding places convenient for a crawl starting/ending or including Belgie. Orloff is very handily placed in this respect: directly opposite Heen en Weer and next door to Bartje.

Orloff is what the Dutch would call a "light" brown café (a sort of apprentice brown cafe), where the nicotine stains have not yet totally obscured the original colour of the walls. OK, it's as trendy as a sundried tomato sandwich, but it has just about enough of a 20's feel to be stylish. Super, as in superficial. Top marks for the clock behind the bar, which bears a striking resemblance to my Dad's watch (now that really was 1920's) and I find the portrait of the Dutch royal couple very touching.

In the Summer, there is outdoor seating (between the pubs lining the street in this part of Utrecht it is occasionally possible to find a piece of pavement on which to walk).
