If you're a Christmas lover like me this is a must do. I try to get ornaments from every country I…read morevisit and this was THE PLACE to get that. The ornaments and overall Christmas decor in here is nothing like I've ever seen. I ended up buying a couple of things pictures, the glass tree and snowman tea candle holder. Everything in the store is absolutely gorgeous so you can't go wrong. I think it's a tad pricey, but what do you expect at a higher end Christmas store and in a touristy spot? All of the employees were super kind and offered to help with different selections of ornaments and decor while shopping. I would definitely recommend stopping by if you have the time!

Buyer Beware! We loved the store until all the stuff we bought started falling apart. They honor…read morenothing and don't respond to emails and don' answer calls. Items from street vendors are better quality! They either swapped items with broken or broke them wrapping, then refused to honor. Waste of time and money and they overcharge for everyrhing. They are looking to take tourist money and run! It's polished garbage and nothing more.

It is well worth having a look and leave with a beautiful piece of designer clothing or accessories. I highly recommend it.

So much lace. We went to a few lace locations and found this location and Lace Jewel to be our…read morefavorites. This location seemed to have more Tapestries (not interested) than the others. The quality was top notch. The prices seemed a bit higher here, but you pay for quality. We actually came in the store two ties during our trip just to make sure we did not miss anything. Ultimately, we did not make any purchases here as my wife did not want any additional pieces after making several purchases elsewhere. Besides, I think she was all laced out.

Unfortunately, this shop is closing by the end of the month…read more I wish I actually lived in the area because they still had a ton of great home decor items for sale (at half price!). I picked up a pillowcase, but they still had tons of figurines, magnets, postcards, and other oddities. Shopkeeper was super nice.

I'm so glad we decided to make the trek down to this place for brunch during our stay in Bruges…read more The whole concept is really cool because you probably can't go wrong with either books or brunch but together seems like an even better combination. Our server was a touch cold and aloof but it was ok because they provide you with a paper menu that you can check off what items you want. This is a fantastic concept and I really wish more places did this. Two of us ordered the bagel with hummus, zucchini, feta, olives, tomato, and cilantro. This was not only nice on the eyes, but it was delicious and packed with tons of veggies and healthy shit. I could not have had a better breakfast. GF ordered the omelette with toast and she liked it but it brought up that dilemma that's as old as time regarding whether or not she likes eggs. If you do, in fact, like eggs, this is probably a safe choice. The last in our party ordered the granola bowl with nuts, seeds, fresh fruit, and yogurt. This person is very hard to please but I do remember her being pleased by this dish. They also have a million other things like pancakes, waffles (duh), sandwiches, salads, a dish of the day, a pie of the day, and a bunch of yummy drinks. The environment is SO cozy and a great place to spend some time enjoying good food and a book.

Wow!! I am so impressed by this place. The service was wonderful, they provide menus where you…read morecheck what you want. The food was fresh and so delicious. I told the waitress I do not eat pork and she substituted the ham for cream cheese for the extensive breakfast. So often I have fruit salads with bad fruit, but everything tasted great! The ambience is wonderful. They have books in English and other languages where you can grab a book and enjoy your meal. It's a wonderful location to hang out and take a break. I will be retuning.

Shopping Middelburg town centre has every kind of shop you…read morecould wish for. Dedicated shoppers know that shopping is not just about quantity but also about quality. Here again Middelburg scores high marks. In fact, it is one of the three most varied shopping towns in the Netherlands! Shopped till you dropped? Take heart, you just found the ideal excuse to take a break in one of the many small restaurants or pavement cafes. Middelburg town centre is a perfect mix of shops and refreshment venues. The shopping precincts The open air shopping precinct in the famous market square is characterised by the tall, impressive gables of the buildings that house the shops. Their elegant ambience combines with the pavement cafés to create an inviting atmosphere. The shops in the nearby Nieuwe Burg precinct also exude elegance and are where you will find, among other things, the exclusive designer brands for fashion and shoes. The Langeviele shopping precinct is the place to go for small fashion boutiques, designer furniture and gourmet snacks. Just behind Langeviele are Korte Geere, Lange Geere and the Geere Arcade. These are packed with quaint, specialist retailers offering furniture, flowers, kitsch and gifts. The best time of year to admire the Lange Delft is around Christmas when Middelburg's longest shopping street is beautifully lit up. The shops in Lange Delft are mostly branches of nationwide chains. The most surprising shopping streets in Middelburg are the small side streets off Lange Delft. These are Sint Janstraat, Herenstraat and Segeerstraat and are home to many original and exciting, smaller shops. Since 2005 Middelburg has also been home to a retail park outside the town centre on Mortiereboulevard. Here you will find the mega stores with a huge range of products from DIY through flowers and plants, furniture, appliances to every conceivable household item. Markets Middelburg's markets cater to food shoppers seeking fresh fruit, vegetables, cheese and fish, as well as to those in search of bargains or that elusive book to complete their collection.
