Restaurant Cafe Bar Cocktail bar Brunch restaurant

👍👍 We came here for Sunday brunch and mimosas and it didn’t disappoint! Absolutely loved the custom omelette and the friendly service with it. The place is cosy and the menu exhaustive. In a nutshell, this one’s an any-meal kinda spot, right in the heart of Saint-gery. People often mention service, cocktails, nice, good, Nice, staff, pour, friendly, Good, bars,

    Walked in at 12 and got lucky. They were serving breakfast options as well. Had oatmeal bowl and omlette mushroom. Really well prepared , hot and tasty. Simple yet fullfilling. Fresh jus dorange and cold brew tea ( earl grey spritzer)

    Had a decent stack of pancakes and coffee. Food came quickly. Prices as expected for the area, which are generally high for the location. Staff were friendly and quick. Interior seating was cozy and clean. Outdoor seating available. Good location near most of the tourist attractions and shopping. Will try the dinner menu on my next visit and update review.

    I have only been here for cocktails - but I really like this bar. From the welcoming barking from the house chihuahua to the perfect negronis. A dog friendly bar!

    Really cool and laid back bar (at lunch time at least, would guess it's a busy and hip place of an evening ) in Central Brussels, good food and of course excellent Belgian beers. Highly recommended.

    Okay, hands down the best tiramisù Pancakes I ever had. Super tasty and as fluffy as they had to be. Quick service, warm atmosphere.

  • 4/5 Kévin B. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) A very nice bar located on Place des Halles with a beautiful terrace, much quieter than all the other bars on Place des Halles. In addition, a super nice staff, taking care of their customers. The food is good and at a fair price. We just regret the choice of beers which is limited to "classics". We would like some new specialties :) (Original) Un très chouette bar situé place des Halles avec une belle terrasse, bien plus calme que tous les autres bars de la place des Halles. En plus, un personnel super gentil, au petit soin pour ses clients. Les plats sont bons et à un prix correct. Nous regrettons juste le choix de bières qui se limite aux "classiques". Nous aimerions quelques nouvelles spécialités :)

    Nice bar with interesting people outside of the tourist only areas - worth a visit if you are not looking for something to special and a nice variety of Belgian beers.

    Mega cosmopolitan...

  • 4/5 Bert V. 4 years ago on Google
    Reservation was made via a gift card. The reply via fb mssgr was quick and polite. Also when we took our seat we got waited on quickly and recieved a nice explanation of all the cocktails. Cocktails themselves were certainly not bad and their mixed plate was also nice. Prices seemed accordingly.

    Average service Average food And cash only?! Won’t visit again

  • 4/5 Chark A. 5 years ago on Google
    Cheaper than the cafes around it (barely) but with a fun mood. In the day it is a great place to retreat and enjoy a meal and at night you can chill around with friends. It's a bit further away from the Beurs so a tiny bit quieter.

    Surprising place. I loved the food and the aesthetic was very "90's" somehow. I didn't expect to enjoy it but I really did. A well-priced gem

    (Translated by Google) The cocktails are good, you are relaxed by the atmosphere both inside and outside. A pleasure to be able to eat there at any time while having a drink, and this for a always correct sum. Welcoming service, only downside: the menu is slightly reduced when you become a regular (Original) Les cocktails y sont bon, on est détendu par l’ambiance aussi bien à l’intérieur qu’à l’extérieur. Un plaisir de pouvoir y manger à toute heure en buvant un verre, et ce pour une somme toujours correcte. Service accueillant, seul bémol : la carte un rien réduite quand on en devient un régulier

  • 5/5 Fred M. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Small establishment on Place St Gery, you will find it a little behind the other bars. Here we do not pretend, and if the menu is less extensive than elsewhere the choice is still reasonable for you to find your happiness. GOOD TO NOTE - The prices charged are the cheapest of the place for a drink. (Original) Petit établissement de la place St Gery, vous le trouverez un peu en retrait des autres bars. Ici on ne fait pas dans la prétention, et si la carte est moins fournie qu'ailleurs le choix est tout de même raisonnable pour que vous y trouviez votre bonheur. BON A NOTER - Les tarifs pratiqués sont les moins chers de la place pour boire un verre.

  • 5/5 Marion C. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Very nice little restaurant bar. Very warm welcome and top service. We stopped because the à la carte prices were almost half the price of other restaurants we have seen in the area. And we were not disappointed at all. We feasted ! For two people: 4 beers, a starter to share (camembert melted in honey with pieces of bread) and two burgers for only 40 euros! No great regrets. (Original) Petit bar restaurant très sympa. Très bon accueil et service au top. Nous nous sommes arrêté car les prix à la carte étaient presque deux fois moins chers que dans les autres restaurants que l'ont a pu voir dans les alentours. Et nous n'avons pas été déçus du tout. Nous nous sommes régalés ! Pour deux personnes : 4 bières, une entrée à partager (camembert fondu au miel avec des morceaux de pain) et deux burgers pour seulement 40 euros ! Aucun regret génial.

    It is delicious and it looks really really nice. The only problem is that you will wait at least 1,5 hour for your food/drinks. So if you come, except long waiting times but good food!
