I wish I had opted to dine-in. When I arrived at Barnini, all of the seating looked so cozy. You…read morehave tables for two people, four people, plus nice couches and comfy chairs. Everyone was enjoying delicious looking drinks and bagels. I ordered my two bagels to-go - the Bagel Chick and the Bagel Deli. All of the reviews rave about the bagels, but really they're just okay. Maybe I'm a bit spoiled because of my visits to New York and the huge availability in general in America. I don't think the bagels at Barnini are made fresh each morning. Bagels should not taste that dry. At least the Bagel Chick had a guacamole mayonnaise, but my husband wasn't so fortunate with the Bagel Deli. And if you're a bagel cafe, how can you only serve one type of bagel? If I were rating Barnini just on its bagels, I would give 3 stars. But my rating includes the ambience, which for me adds an extra star. Even though the bagels are average, I would love to go back for a coffee and pastry (the cakes and pies looked great) for breakfast or in the afternoon with a friend because the place is so gezellig.

Went to get a sandwich here. I decided to go for the sandwich 'Master', which included tuna, ham,…read morerucola and some other things. The service is great -- friendly people, happy to help. The location is in the student neighbourhood at the ossenmarkt. There is place to sit inside, but it is not very cosy or attractive. The same can be said for the outside patio, it's not a place you'd think about 'let's just stay here for a while'. On to the food, the Master-sandwich I would'nt really describe as master. The things is, it is a good sandwich, fresh ingredients, but the combination of the salad, tuna, parma ham, it was a bit much. Sometimes less outspoken tastes together works better. Also, prices are confusing, the price on the menus are different from you'd pay in the end, I suppose that is because of the kin of bread you choose. I can imagine one would go here when close by but I wouldn't go out of my way to visit this place again.

Really good sandwiches for less than 5 euros and really friendly people running the place. Try the…read moreTexas or Fusion on sandwich bread

I had their full breakfast plate with cava. It was very filling and the bread are all nice. It's…read morejust the usual breakfast, really but they plated it well. They also serve Brussels waffles which is really cool. We now know where to eat freshly made waffles in Wilrijk :) The best thing about this places is the service. The lady was very patient in explaining the menu in English since we don't speak nederlands. Although we felt a bit out of place being the younger ones eating there, it still had a very welcoming atmosphere. Dogs are also very much wecome!
