It is an icon and a perfect expression of magic of the human presence on this planet. The owners could not be more real and the beer list is unmatched. Ever tried a lachouffe from '87? You can get it there if the owner can find it in his beer dungeon. Try a slice of smoked cheese! Listen to the owner and his wife fight. Talk to beer snobs, tourists, locals if you can find a spot among all the junk that is piled on top of the chairs and tables. Don't expect to be pampered. Just go there to be amazed and bask in the ambiance of a genuine Belgian beer experience!

The owner told him he left and couldn't come back. The city is gross, parking is near impossible and this owner is the worst of the worst, I honestly can't believe he is allowed to do "business". Do yourself a favor and go to Bruges, kinder people, a fairytale environment and the best fries and waffles you'll ever have.

I'm not beer drinker but I did stop by to try their beef stew also known as Vlaams Stoofvlees. Wheeeeeew baby. Their gravy sauce for the stew is rich and thick. You literally can pick out the herbs when you eat. There's nothing fake about this place. That meal honestly can be shared amongst two people. It was an interesting twist for me to eat a chicory salad. Never have I ever. Yet, it was earthy and tasty. Great health benefits too. One thing you'll notice in Belgium is there Mayo and ketchup is real not processed. You can literally taste the difference. If you're ever in Antwerp for even a couple of hours, make it your business to stop by and treat yourself to good food and beer.

The food menu looked nice, but I couldn't pass up their asparagus menu because it's currently asparagus season. I've never had white asparagus, and let me tell you, it's a must try. It also comes with a beer pairing. The staff members are great but the restaurant understaffs, so the service is slow. Our group felt bad for the team serving us even though we had to wait over an hour for our food to come out. The staff was apologetic and checked in; made sure they at least served us drinks while we waited.
