Overlooking City Centre Ieper, this place is a very good spot for a nice evening dinner. The storefront is part of a row of restaurants facing Grote Markt. Along with its neighbors, it offers an extensive outdoor dining area. The indoor facility is also nice having a lovely nostalgic feel with additional seating upstairs as well. My server did a rather good job during my visit. Using English was not a problem at all. The highlight of my meal was a terrific shrimp and tomato salad that was fresh and tasty. The shrimp were the small local variety which I find to be particularly enjoyable. The meal was accompanied by tasty frites, as would be expected in Belgium. I finished with a very nice coffee that topped things off in a very satisfying manner. The prices were not bad considering the overall dining experience. In general, It was an enjoyable time and a reasonably good meal. I am confident in recommending this restaurant as a good choice for good quality dining with a local flair. read more

The waiter suggested the duck and Brussels Sprouts. It was delish. The Pilsner was Primas Haacht and I asked for fries. A great meal prior to the Flanders museum. read more

Lovely open air cafe with indoor pub, next door to Flanders Fields Museum. Excellent selection of Belgian beers. Menu is typical cafe fare with a wide enough selection to satisfy most eaters. I tried the local cheese appetizer, which would have been plenty for 3 or 4 people, and had the Scampi Diabolique with a local abbey beer (Tongerlo) which was recommended by a local; I am happy to say that I wasn't steered wrong, the beer was outstanding and the shrimp was much better than typical cafe meals. p.s. Unexpected bonus: Free WiFi! Connect to KleinStadhuis access point. read more

Like a lot of places on Ypres, this place opens pretty late (around 11:00) so it isn't the best place to go to grab a morning coffee (there are other places in the Grote Markt where you can do that). However it is a great place for a spot of lunch. In fact there lunches (and dinners) are pretty decent sized, though they are a little pricey (comparatively speaking). I ended up having the Flemish stew and my brother had the ham toastie. Well, it turned out the ham toastie was much more than just a basic toastie - it also had a full blown salad included, plus a bowl of chip, and some nuts as appestiser (normally you have to pay for the appetiser, not that I like them because appetisers kill my appetite). Oh, and the Flemish stew was pretty good as well. read more

Great place, with a good atmosphere and friendly staff, who politely advised that I may have ordered too much food for just one person! They were right! The main courses are huge and absolutely delicious - good food with no pretenses! Absolutely recommend the fish stew and spaghetti bolognese! read more

We stopped in for dinner while staying in Ypres. They're located right on the main square. The beer selection is solid. I had a Hommelbier and something else I hadn't seen before. My wife had a Boon Geuze and Rodenbach Vintage. We split cheese croquette which was tiny for the price. Then I had the Flemish Carbonade while she had the Steak with Bernaise. The food was tasty and well prepared. The service was very good and they had wifi which helped because our B&B didn't. I'd definitely go back. It's one if the better beer and dining options in the area. read more

Very nice place. We arrived late from our bike trip and the hotel had no dinner this day. Meandered into town and almost missed this (it's right next to the Den Anker at the cathedral). Steak and goat cheese salad were very good. Unfortunately portions too big so no space for desert. Frietjes awesome as one would expect in Belgium. Agree with the other review that their own beer is great. We loved it after 4 hours in the heat. Quite busy in the evenings so bring time or they seem to take reservations as well. read more

We had dinner two nights in a row. Food great, service great. Make a point to stop here.
