👍👍 Stopped on the way to catch our bus. Nice, quick, and inexpensive. Self-serve on soups, drinks, desserts, and snacks. They do coffee drinks. Nice air conditioned side area to sit and eat. Good choice, we only spent 5€. People often mention good,

    If you like healthy food then you should definitely go to EXKi. Even though it might be not on a budget this populair eat out place are very known in Belgium. They do have "menu"-set so you can take a look at the card to check it out what you can order to get a good deal. My favourite things in EXKi would be their kish! If you want to use the bathroom, you need a code which is on the bill so don't forget to ask for it (just in case). The location is just inside the Brussels South station, it's clean and they got enough spaces!

    The salads are what you want expect from a fast-food shop... 85% salad and then some slices of chicken and cheese on top of it. Not a "rich" salad at all.

    Getting ready to travel and needed something healthy to take with. Got a rice and vegetable and red lentil hummus salad. It's really yummy. Also got quiche which was okay, but raw underneath. Plus a good sandwich. Will return. Recommended

    The place is a little small and crowded sometimes. The food is good and tasty, but the coffe is not that good.

    I got a sandwich & salad which were good. Soy matcha was ok (much better than at Pret!). Had to wait in line for 10 minutes because the staff of 3 seemed a bit disorganized. Truly like that Exki is trying to make all their packaging recyclable or sustainable. One problem: I got a cheesecake to take away and the staff wrapped it immediately in cling film. The worst option. And I’m sure they do it often because it’s on the main counter ready to be used... isn’t it a bit useless?

    One of the best place in the world where I’ve been for a quick lunch. Reasonable prices for high quality products, fast and kind service. Super

    Taste (1/10): The sandwich might be the worst one I've ever had. I suspect it had raw meat. Who, and for what reason, sells such a product? I have no idea. I attempted to eat only the bread part, but that too was a failed mission. Blegh. Place (7/10): It was decent. The atmosphere resembled a cafe setting. However, the restroom is password-protected, and if you've tossed the receipt, good luck. Price (2/10): Everything was outrageously expensive. Being in the railway station area, they're experts at overcharging unsuspecting passersby. Treatment (3/10): Everything felt robotic; making eye contact was even a challenge. Cleanliness (5/10): Average. Extra Charges and Hidden Costs (1/10): Unnecessary; everything is already a rip-off. Overall Impression: I'd strongly advise against going unless absolutely necessary. --- the photo was shot on Thursday 30th of November 2023. The local time was 12:36:44. The timezone was Europe / Brussels, which is GMT +01:00.

    Not much choice for a meal during transit, but it’s ok… at least Belgium chocolate is great

    Exkis are generally a good chain. Usual arrangement of patisserie type things, rolls, drinks counter etc. At this one we had some soup and some rolls. Nice.

    Being there in peak hour on Friday between 2 train 4 staffs I the shop. Only one as cashier and to make, serve cofee. Took more than 15 minutes to cash the 3 people previous to me. 25 minutes to open the second cash machine

    Statt einem Cappuccino hab ich nen Kaffee bekommen, der bitte schmeckte. Und der icetea war so bitter, dass man ihn verdünnen musste. Schade...

  • 4/5 Leticia V. 1 year ago on Google
    Fresh products and nice staff. The station is not a very nice environment but I certainly recommend it if you are hungry and need to wait for your train 💛💛

  • 5/5 Felipe C. 1 year ago on Google
    Perfect place to eat and the service gave from Nancy was absolutely good

  • 4/5 Peter K. 4 years ago on Google
    Better value than most alternatives

  • 4/5 Stephen G. 1 year ago on Google
    An oasis in the hubbub of Brussels Midi station. Great drinks, especially the freshly prepared power drinks and some excellent salads. Avoid the hot food, unless it is freshly prepared.

    At the opening they gave free vauchers to try their coffee. I entered to try it. There were few people in the shop. I was the second on the queue to serve. When it was my turn, the clerk took my vaucher, but he served two other people instead. After these two people he left counter. It took so long that I had to leave the shop no to miss my train. It was a very good test, now I know I will keep using another bar for my morning coffee.

  • 4/5 Denise F. 4 years ago on Google
    My first port of call when I visit Brussels. A very decent cup of coffee with a complimentary chocolate. What's not to like? Interesting quiches but being on a gf diet I have to choose from strange salads or from a very small but original selection of desserts. The food is good but expensive for what it is. WHC users beware. The toilets are upstairs.

    Great place for quick breakfast and lunch - ate twice here today. Delicious double espresso (with discount before 11 in the morning) and pain au chocolate, didn’t like the sandwich with beef tartar only - the consistency was weird and had too much onion. Otherwise the menu option for lunch is filling.

    Really delicious food, nice staff, poor English but people are helpful and try they best to explain and understand each other

  • 5/5 Ankita C. 2 years ago on Google
    This place is nicely done and particularly the Covid safety measures are quite well implemented. Staff is really friendly. Food is quite good.

😠 Had to wait 30 minutes for a simple burger order. The burgers are just lying there, ready to be served, but staff is generally not capable or willing to pick one up and lay it on a platter. Be prepared to invest some time when visiting this place. Really makes you consider the "fast" in "fast food".
