We really loved it. The food was very tasty and the staff were really friendly. It became our restaurant during the day we spent in Bruges. We felt very welcomed by them! I’m looking forward to going back!

The reviews of this restaurant are surprising and a bit sad given how nice the staff were and how good our lunch was. The chicken, apple salad was very good. The ingredients were all fresh and the chicken was cooked perfectly. Additionally, they allowed us 5 people to bring all our luggage in and keep it at the back of the restaurant near us. Then a few of us were able to walk around and explore the Church and surrounding area while others stayed at our table and got espresso. On top of all this the restaurant called a cab for us as we were unable to find one to take us back to Brussels. All around the experience was worth 5-stars and more for each of us.
