    My favo brunch café in Brussels!! Love their weekend 20€ brunch all in, it always serves more than you can eat and most foods are sourced locally. Their granola is pretty incredible, sourced from a nearby producer and its also available to purchase for your later, at home cravings. Oh and did you see the chef? :p

    Really cute space in Brussels with fast service and reasonable(ish) prices. The place is very cute and would be good for coworking as they have a space for it upstairs above the cafe area.

    despite the fact that many people like this tent, I have a different opinion and this is why. i came in and ordered a latte macchiato. then I was completely forgotten and after half an hour I got my latte after asking. the latte was served in a small semi-transparent lemonade glass. while a latte was supposed to be a tall glass. and that for almost 5 euros I thought a bit outrageous.

    It's one of my favorite places in Brussels to eat. Definitely recommending. The ginger tea is amazing!

    A group of 40 of us (although there was space for more) hired out all three floors of the venue for the whole day. Mona and the team at Le Phare couldn't have been better or more helpful - especially working to ensure we were within budget. We also loved their sustainable ethos, which really fitted in well with what we were trying to achieve. The day of workshops and presentations was a huge success, concluding with drinks of the terrace. Highly recommended!

    Nice place to brunch and chill with some friends. I enjoyed their policy on sustainability and waste.

    We had an amazing private party at Le Phare du Kanaal! The staff was very friendly, always smiling despite the wave of people demanding cocktails, I mean…incredible! I can definitely recommend it for private parties, we had a blast!

    We went to the place because of all the good reviews on google. Nothing tasted like anything not even their homemade bissap only tasted like water with a hint of mint. The soup was so bland i don’t even think they used salt. The salmon sandwich also tasted like nothing and it must be a skill to make salmon sandwich be this tasteless. Considering that place not being the most affordable we wanted to treat ourselves to a nice brunch and honestly we felt robbed.

  • 5/5 Raphaëlle De L. 5 months ago on Google
    Great place to get a brunch. Not too noisy, excellent food, enough quantity and good quality. The brunch is 25euros, 2 beverages (warm and cold) and 5 choices of food (sweet and/or salty). And you can have bread and jams. The atmosphere is peaceful and cozy. I recommend entirely!!

    Nice coworking space with friendly service.

  • 2/5 Guglielmo V. 10 months ago on Google
    2 stars because the price just doesn't make sense with the amount of food i got. We paid 60€ in 2, 40 for the brunch and 20 for the apéros. Not worth the price

    Had brunch here on a sunny Sunday morning, sitting outside in the sun. We weren’t too hungry, so it was great we could have the shared brunch! Food was great, the bread is fresh and especially liked the orange-lemon juice. Very friendly and helpful staff. 👌🏽

    Cosy and cute atmosphere, great design, but the coffee isn't so nice and the service is slow.
