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.

The Flemish stew was the best we've had in Belgium, period. The Vol au Vent, delicious. The frites, spot on. The beer selection was also excellent. So you will not be disappointed. Overall, when in Bruges, make it your first stop, and maybe your last too. Prost!

We were visiting Bruges and staying at Hotel Aragon, and this restaurant came highly recommended on…read morethe hotel's list. It checked all the boxes I was looking for - local Belgian cuisine, affordable, close by, and open late. Exactly what you want after a long day of drinking Belgian beers. I didn't realize ribs were such a big deal in Belgium, so I was genuinely excited when I ordered them... only to feel deep disappointment when the server returned to let me know they had just sold out. Luckily, I pivoted to the vol-au-vent and had absolutely no regrets. The chicken was moist and creamy, and the pastry was incredibly flaky and light. Naturally, I paired it with a Trappist ale, which felt mandatory. Cozy, satisfying, and quintessentially Belgian--this spot lived up to the recommendation and then some.

It was ok, the breakfast sandwich was the true standout here. Beautiful presentation, perfectly cooked egg with a nice runny yolk, a generous pile of bacon, tomato and lettuce, on a toasted bagel.

It's certainly a charming little place, and on a slightly drizzly day it was a very pleasant place to be in from the cold and rain. The Mosselen Natuur (plain steamed mussels) were big, meaty, well-cleaned, and tasty, but if you're not a shellfish fan, the Stoofpotje van Varkenswangetjes (pork cheek stew) is a great choice. Extremely tender pork cheek with minimal excess fat, and a lot of it, with a delicious red wine sauce plus much better fries than we'd had earlier on the main square made my night. I'd say that this was the best meal I had in our trip to Belgium, definitely one I'd repeat if we visit Bruges again!
