This place serves fruit bowls, fresh-squeezed juices and fresh veggies as well as typical breakfast and lunch items. They specialize in poached eggs and peck-style waffles. I went with the charcoal pancakes which has strawberry sauce and lime cream cheese; I also had egg, OJ, and a latte. My colleague had avocado toast with spring mix. I was very pleased with the charcoal pancakes but the portion was quite small. It's a good thing that I ordered egg as well. My colleague loved the avocado toast. My cell signal was very spotty and they provided me with the WiFi password. The service was good, the menu was unique, the food was good and the name is awesome. Four stars!

Like every other restaurant in Belgium, you pay for a small surcharge for dining in. I opted for this option because I wanted to be able to enjoy my breakfast. My friend and I placed the following orders: a bottled beer (yes, for breakfast), omelette with cheese, salmon quiche, and today's soup (two options but I chose the tomato soup). The omelette (7 euros) was delicious and came with a side of salad. It's cheesy (as it's supposed to be) and delicious. The tomato soup was nothing special but only costed 4 euros and I got so much bread with my soup! Worth it. The salmon quiche (5.1 euros) was okay but filling. The beer (3.4 euros) was absolutely tasty and a perfect complement to breakfast. We spent about 20 euros on the breakfast for two. Definitely on the pricey side of things but at least it was a good meal. Service was very friendly! Staff spoke English very well.

The cafe is quite big, with a good size seating arrangement away from the counter. A big selection meets you as soon as you walk through the doors, and walking along the display of cakes, pastries, and breads will lead you to a glass window through which you can see the deliciousness being made by the baker. They also have a good selection of sandwiches, small pizzas, and such. Staff is friendly and attentive. Have not had to wait here at all, rather it is the staff that has to wait for me to make up my mind: "...one of this..uhh no no wait this, no uh... Maybe both... And also one of those... And a coffee, a large one... Oooooo and what's this!" - Paul's selection will make you very indecisive. Please note however that everything is about 10-20 cents more if you sit in the cafe instead of taking it to go.

3.5 Stars Le Cambridge is not much to look at; the interior…read moreis pretty bright and utilitarian, but its location next to downtown Brussels' main pedestrian shopping thoroughfare, Rue Neuve makes the front terasse great for people watching. Pinballs in the back are an added bonus. The bar is tied to the Haacht breweries, so four of the six drafts are their products (Primus, Tangerloo, Charles Quint, etc), but the other two are rotating beers from breweries like Van Den Bossche (Kerst Pater Christmas beer, Buffalo Stout, Lamoral Triple, etc) and Malheur. Add in the 80 in the bottle that they advertise out front (including Wieze, which I haven't found elsewhere in Brussels), and you have a winning combination!
