The place is definitely iconic and the staff was nice, but the vegan options were a bit lacking. Even though they had four vegan pie options, they only had one vegan option for the breads (with toppings) and they had no oat milk for the coffee! The pies were good but the breads, quite average.

A working medieval-era water mill right in the centre of Maastricht? Well, this is definitely one sight that you would not ordinarily see in a city centre. The Bisschopsmolen (Bishop's Mill) has been around for close to 1,000 years, dating back to the 11th century and is the oldest still-working water mill in the Netherlands. Located in the Jeker quarter within a short walk from the Basilica of Our Lady, the mill also houses a bakery and a small eatery. Although the eatery was closed when I visited. I still managed to view the mill's water wheel by following the alleyway to the back of the building. This place is a convenient stop-over as you make your way to Helpoort (Hell Gate) from the city centre.

Bisschopsmolen in Maastricht is a delightful bakery and museum rolled into one. Their vlaaipunt pastries are simply divine, with flavors like abricot and apple and nuts that pair perfectly with a cup of coffee. But it's not just the food that makes this place special; the operational water mill offers a fascinating glimpse into Maastricht's history, making it a must-visit for anyone looking for a unique and memorable experience.
