First Belgian waffles and Wow. They offer Lieges (thicker/denser) and Brussels (thin/crispy)…read morewaffles. I tend to like the lighter crispy style waffle so I really liked the brussels style waffle. I wouldn't recommend putting too many wet toppings on the brussels waffle since it gets soggy pretty quick. Lieges waffle has sugar in the dough so it is a bit sweet and the dough almost tastes like a croissant dough. They made our waffle to order, piping hot and fresh. Pay extra for seating but there's some standing tables outside.

I don't believe I've ever had a Belgian waffle-- so while I was in Brussels, it was a must to try…read more I saw several places in the area selling it but the ratings here were high and I ventured here. The line was very long-- which moved very quickly. With the suggestion from the employee, I went with the Liege waffle because I was not going to eat right away and I feared it would become soggy. I ate the waffle a couple hours later and it was excellent. I also had a Latte, which was just okay. However, I was here for the waffle and it definitely did not disappoint!

While walking around the area in search of gifts for family, we stumbled upon this cozy and classy…read morelittle tea shop. The tea shop appears to be family owned and both the wife and husband were extremely kind and helpful. The wife helped us pick tea, speaking a little English, and was very encouraging towards our own attempts at French. In addition to buying tea to go, we also had a cup on the spot. The tea was great and the environment was warm and relaxing, with jazz music playing in the background. Lastly, the store has a nice selection of different Belgian sweets (chocolate, cookies, etc.) from other businesses if tea is, well, not your cup of tea. Overall, this tea house is an amazing gem nestled in a rather busy and occasionally touristy area that should not be missed.

The wife and I have a long history with Méert. The first thing I ever had were the caramels. Then,…read moreduring my first visit to Lille, in France, home to one of the three Méert shops (the other being in Paris), I sampled their gaufres. Or rather, fell in love with their gaufres. The vanilla filling is to die for. We've taken visiting friends to Méert and bought more and more of their gaufres, but never had we actually eaten in. We decided, after seeing their luxurious looking tarts, that we had to try them. When we arrived, all the tables out front in the Galeries Royales Saint Hubert were full, as well as the small number of tables in the actual shop. We ordered our tarts and only had to wait about five minutes before a free table opened up and we were seated. We ordered the Tarte Yuzu and the Jardin D'Eden. You can read the description of both, and all the others, in the pictures I attached. We also ordered tea. I recommend smelling all the teas in the shop before you decide on which one to order, as they all sound delectable. The tartes were amazing. So we'll prepared. The Yuzu was both of our favorites, but the Jardin D'Eden, a pistachio confectionery, was in no way bad, we just preferred the Yuzu, mint and lemon confit, and the hazelnut crunchy layer. When we come been, and we definitely plan on coming back, we're going to get another Yuzu and try a different tarte for tarte number two for next time.

Had a peach and pepper tea (can't remember the name) that was lovely, if pricey (€5 for a pot, would've been cheaper if I'd ordered more). If I could, this would be a 4.5 star review, so I'm rounding up. Staff was friendly and pleasant, left me alone after ordering, and was kind and courteous to all of the customers. The lady seemed shocked when I asked her what was her favorite tea, as if no one ever bothered with her opinion. (Not a flavored gal, with a preference for greens). I've only been here once so far, yet I long to return, especially on a beautiful day where I need a reprieve from life, and just want some me time.

However when we tried to purchase it, they actually don't sell that specific piece of chocolate, so we purchased a box of some other type of chocolate which was not as good. The store was actually completely empty when we first got there, there were no staff and no customers so we were very confused and standing in the middle of the store.
