Nice variety of burgers, students' menu, kids' menu, tapas, salads, chicken, pork, ribs, fish, hot dogs and milkshakes!!! They also have a good selection of drinks, and yes, that includes alcoholic beverages. The waiter (and I believe the owner) was very nice and spoke a little English. It is close to the Saint Ghislain train station. There are also stores nearby. Definitely returning.

Tasty American themed Diner placed in a nice downtown in Sainte Ghilan. I find the options to be…read moretypical of a diner with a Belgian twist. Burgers, hotdogs, salads, fish options, ribs, and chicken options for food. Drink menu consist of well drinks, American soft drinks, and shakes. Starters are listed as Tapas. They have jalapeno poppers, mozzarella sticks, onion rings and various other options. We had burgers (Mexican burger, Bacon cheeseburger), a chicken skillet (almost like a fajita) and a kids meal. Shakes are standard and also alcoholic based. I find the shakes to have tasted very good. Service is above par for Belgium. Prompt greeting, quick return from time of order to table. The atmosphere is very 50's diner. Reservations are a must because they fill up fast. Make sure to try if in the area. Definitely recommend.

Spaghetti bolo for breakfast? Hell yeah!…read more After a morning jaunt through the flea market where I snatched up a fab porcelain pastry plate for 2E, my local host suggested a mid-morning snack at this 100% authentic Belgian café. As soon as we walked through the door my heart started to flutter. The wood paneled restaurant with its large central Zinc bar, gruff but friendly waiters, formica table tops with little napkin dispensers looks like it hasn't budged in 50 years. In a word: adorable! After examining the menu thoroughly I settled on the house specialty of spaghetti bolo and a café russe to wash it all down. An incongruous blend, I know, but hey, in a 24hr Belgian diner anything goes. Needless to say the bolo was like nothing I've ever had. Served over slightly overcooked vermicelli and topped with grated gruyere, the peppery, chunky bolognaise sauce had a regressive, quirky, heartiness to it that made the whole dish super fun to eat. If I lived in BXL I could see La Clef d'Or becomming a regular post flea market spot.

Outdoor seating is comfortable and affords a lot of fun people watching in the square and the flea market. But just know that you will need to pay in cash. They do not accept credit cards.
