👍 A quaint little place located opposite the gruuthouse museum. I tried the Flemish beef Stew and it did not disappoint! The meat was cooked to perfection. The accompanying fries weren’t the best though. Good service and a nice selection of drinks. No WiFi. Definitely worth a visit People often mention restaurant,

    From my heart the best restaurant in Bruges. A Little restaurant just outside the main street, beautifully decorated, super cosy. You feel very appreciated from the moment you walk through the door. The manager and the waitress know who to make their customers feel valued, both of them had a BIG smile on their faces. It was my grandma in law’s birthday and they cutely put candles on her creme brûlée and got the entire restaurant sing happy birthday to her. The food was absolutely amazing, stunning presentation, a real explosion of flavours. The attention for the details on the presentation is impeccable. Thank you.

    I walked in mainly ‘cause I needed to charge my phone otherwise I wouldn’t have known how to go back to the hotel. The man behind the cashier was super nice allowing me to use a plug near the window. I had a double espresso with some water and few chocolates. The place looks so welcoming, almost like from a fairy tale. The man was very friendly even when I dropped some water on the table. Thank you!

    Lovely service, delicious food, yummy beer. Couldn't have asked for better. The starter (goats cheese) was perfect and my steak was delicious (although rare it was not, almost medium well - so I'd order blue if you want rare). Watching people go by out of the window is also a wonderful way to pass the afternoon.

    We had a wonderful dinner here. The restaurant is very cozy, only a few tables, so be sure to make a reservation. The wait staff was superb. We had the cheese croquettes, the duck with peaches and raspberries, dover sole, and the Apple tart with ice cream. The duck was delicious, and the peaches were a great complement. The Apple pie was also amazing, with a unique cake like crust.

    Seafood paradise! We tried the lunch menu, which consists on a starter, main dish and a dessert. For the starter we tried the smoke salmon and the croquettes, to be honest it was good but nothing special. As main course, we had the cod linguini and the mussels, Both of them super good and in big portions. The desserts were nothing but avoidable, better to save those calories for the waffles! The restaurant is cozy and warm, the staff was surprisingly decent and it is located in the heart of brugge.

    Lovely, cosy place with amazing food and drinks. And the service - on the top! We didn’t have a reservation (you can’t do it online, unfortunately) but we managed to get a last table just when we arrived.

    Really excellent restaurant, great food, friendly multi-lingual staff & relaxed, cozy atmosphere. Be sure to book in advance as it is small & popular, with good reason! Nice choice dishes and Belgian beers along with soft drinks. Our party had steak, duck and pork dishes, all were perfectly cooked and utterly delicious.

    Ein sehr kleines, aber gemütliches und hübsches Restaurant mit gehobener Küche. Alle Gänge waren sehr gut zubereitet und sahrn toll aus. Die Bedienungen waren freundlich und die Preise sind angemessen. Absolut empfehlenswert ist die Bouillabaisse! Man sollte vorher reservieren, da das Restaurant wirklich sehr klein ist.

    A lovely small cozy place where you can sit outside to have your coffee and buy some sweets. After a whole day in Brugge this was probably the place that was least touristic and felt more original. The staff was super nice too.

    Nice, warm and soft vibe! It's super brilliant to have a cup of tea with milk here. The chocolate snack tastes amazing 👏

😐 It's a crypt style bar with a cracking atmosphere & one of the largest selection of beers I've seen. It gets very busy, so be prepared to queue at certain times. You'll need to peruse the selection of beers in 'the folder' in addition to those on the counter. A must visit place for any beer connoiss...

👍 Sehr nettes Kaffee mit charmantem Interieur. Sowohl innen als auch außen. Der Innenhof ist groß und gemütlich zum Sitzen. Die Karte beinhaltet für jeden etwas.
