Maison Dandoy is a renowned bakery with multiple locations in Brussels, offering a variety of delectable treats such as waffles, chocolate spread, gingerbread, and Speculaas cookies. Established in 1829, this family-owned business has become a go-to spot for waffle enthusiasts. While the array of tempting toppings is enticing, many locals prefer to savor the natural taste of Belgian waffles with just a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
What better place to try waffles than Belgium? I had a Liège waffle with salted caramel butter, vanilla ice cream and hazelnuts, and a Brussels waffle topped with warm strawberries, chocolate and whipped cream. Both were delightful, but the salted butter really stood out. Absolutely delicious. Maison Dandoy is a famous spot for waffles and sweet treats. I grabbed a packet of their vanilla biscuits from their other shop at Grand Place to take home.

Nice place for waffles! -I came here on a brussels food and walking tour, the guide went in and got us waffles while we waited outside, but he said this was the store to come to for waffles. -I came back for a second time to try both kinds of waffles -The waffles are great, there is 2 kinds, the hand held original kind, which is amazing, or the square on a tray with different toppings kind, there is many different toppings to choose from. -I tried both kinds, and both were great, i do like the original alot, but the chocolate and strawberries were good too!

Famous Belgium waffle store. They have several branches and locations through out Brussels. This store have indoor and outdoor seating. I’m door area located on second floor. Taste good, I got the classic one which is good for both waffles and chocolate. Waffle are crispy and light. Credit card accepted. Enjoy !

A TOTAL TOURIST TRAP!! If you're just looking for a place to sit and have some overpriced beverages, this is the place for you!! 😚 Otherwise, honestly, the place is overhyped. The waffles were okay at best, but they cost 10€ for a basic waffle with just chocolate and ice cream. The worst part is the incompetent workers. There were four or five of them all chitchatting and doing nothing. Many tables were still available, but they made sure a line was created downstairs to create the illusion that it was full. I'm telling you, it WAS NOT. The servers didn't even bother to say hello or tell us which dish was which when serving us; they just plopped it down on the table, which we didn't appreciate. Bonus: For all the workers they have employed, the toilet is in an unbelievable state. I've included a picture here as proof, and I hope the person reading this is not eating their long-awaited, overpriced waffle right now. 😅 In conclusion - absolutely NOT WORTH it. Just take one to go if you absolutely have to, and eat outside.

We had a great waffle here and really enjoyed it. It was clear this was a proper, high-quality waffle with excellent flavour and texture. The price is on the higher side, but the quality almost justifies it. A very reliable choice for a delicious treat.
Bird — Google review
Fast service. October had not much tourists. Queue was fast and random. Had the Brussels waffle with cooked strawberries and hazelnuts. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 Light inside, crisp outside, chilled strawberries gave that sweet tartness to match the waffle’s sweetness. Very good coffee too! Liege waffle was ok, the cream was yummy. Lots of tables outside, and smokers beside the trash bins. Tables upstairs too, did not get to check this. Invader was here 👾

The best waffle I’ve ever had. They have good choices of waffles on their menu. I’ve tried the queens special which comes with cooked strawberry plus icecream and it was delicious. They were quite busy but it was work waiting in line for this great waffle.
Hilena T — Google review
Biggest tourist trap EVER!! DO NOT GO HERE!! Huge waiting line, huge prices(we paid about 11.5 euros per waffle), low quality chocolate!!! How can the chocolate be so bad??? It tastes like chocolate sauce from the supermarket. The whipped cream was tasteless and the cooked strawberries were so bland and somehow bitter?? The chocolate waffle was horrible but the speculoos one was pretty nice especially the icecream(that s why 2 stars). The seating area was ok but SOOOO COLD! Do they not have heating?? I didnt think i would ever get scammed but there s a time and place for everything :')

Restaurant
Le Funambule is a charming waffle shop located in the heart of Brussels, just a stone's throw from the famous Mannekin Pis. The shop offers an array of delicious Liege waffles, with options to customize your toppings. Whether you prefer a simple Liege waffle with sugar or want to indulge in combinations like strawberries, whipped cream, melted chocolate, bananas, or Nutella, Le Funambule has something for everyone.
We made a special effort to get back to this shop and brought another couple we met on a walking tour back with us. We had never eaten here before, but from just looking through the window, it seemed like the best place to find good waffles. Our instincts were spot on!! My husband and I ordered different waffles so we could both get to taste two flavors. Both flavors were absolutely delicious. It's hard to find words to say how good they were. We didn't want to stop eating them. Our new companions seemed to agree with us. They were all smiles at having stuck with us as we scrambled to find the shop while needing to catch a train to leave town by a certain time. The service could have been better -- but after the first bite of their waffles, I stopped caring about service.
Lucille T — Google review
The Liege waffles were a decent price, but I think this place may not be as “genuine” as other waffle places just based on all the offerings of toppings (just my personal opinion after trying a number of waffle places). We found their waffle less fragrant and a bit too crispy compared to other Liege waffles we’ve tried around the country. It also wasn't as hot/fresh as I expected it to be. The stand had great business though, so be prepared to queue a bit to get your waffle. There’s a tiny area to sit but you’ll likely have to stand or walk while you eat.
Tiff C — Google review
The waffles are perfectly crisp on the outside and fluffy inside, with a rich, authentic Belgian flavor. The toppings are fresh and beautifully presented.
Adarsh N — Google review
I didn’t know why this spot is getting lower ratings! I absolutely love how easy it is to locate and it’s relatively cheap to what I paid at waffle factory. I got the waffles covered in whipped cream, caramel and chocolate for about $8CAD (€5.25). Absolutely loved it!
Koffi D — Google review
Great prompt and friendly service. Ordered a hot chocolate which was really nice, not too rich or chocolatey. Also of course ordered a waffle! They make their whipped cream fresh on sight (which you can see them doing behind the counter), had ours with chocolate, cream strawberries and banana. Recommend!
Eva M — Google review
First of all, the most ridiculous thing is that there is a mandatory drink requirement, and just fries with a drink cost over €10 (in the most famous spot in Amsterdam it was only €6.5). On top of that, they only have 4 types of sauces, two of which are just ketchup and mayonnaise. All of this might have been overlooked, but there was hair on our tray. The staff’s attitude was definitely unpleasant. The fries were no different from any ordinary ones — I definitely do not recommend this place.
Halil Y — Google review
OK, this place is too close to many touristy attractions, yes, but in all the times I've been in Brussels they always had the best waffle, so don't miss on it just because of the crowds waiting. They are crunchy and warm and the less toppings you choose the more you will appreciate the waffle's texture
Florencia E — Google review
The waffles are good. We came for dessert after dinner and realized one waffle per person was probably too much. They are filling, especially with the toppings, so you could share one per couple. They are delicious though! It is right next to the Manneken Pis Statue

Vitalgaufre is a popular waffle spot in Brussels, known for its crispy and caramelized exterior with a soft and chewy inside, making it the perfect on-the-go snack even without any toppings. Despite potential long queues, the service is quick, allowing you to savor one of the best Liege waffles in the heart of the city near De Brouckere metro station. It's recommended to enjoy this delicious treat plain, as it's already bursting with flavor.
One of the best (if not the best) gaufres places in Bruxelles! The staff is quite fast and then you can eat your gaufre in the streets. It is located in the metro De Brouckère, in the heart of the city.

(Translated by Google) Good flavor, although a little sweet for my taste, but the dough is very good. In addition to being able to add toppings, you can order the waffle with chocolate chips inside, making it easier and cleaner to eat. This site is located down the stairs from the subway (Original) Buen sabor, aunque para mi gusto algo dulce, pero la masa muy buena. Además de poderle poner toppings, puedes pedir el gofre con pastillas de chocolate en su interior, haciéndolo más fácil y limpio de comer. Este sitio se encuentra bajando las escaleras del metro

Veganwaf is a compact takeaway cafe located in the city center near the Grand Palace in Brussels. They specialize in serving handmade plant-based waffles and ice cream, along with other simple snacks. The waffles are vegan-friendly and gluten-free, made using natural ingredients and locally sourced products. Despite being plant-based, their waffles maintain a delightful texture and consistency. Customers can choose from a variety of vegan-friendly toppings to accompany their waffles.
The hunt for a VEGAN Belgium waffle was completed here at Veganwaf’! Being vegan in Brussels I wanted a TRUE Belgium waffle & was over the moon to find an all vegan waffle spot! Tucked away inside a mall (GPS may say you are at the location but it’s INSIDE) this tiny waffle spot is a MUST! Super easy menu- you get the waffle & pick how many toppings you want. I picked the classic waffle with chocolate sauce. It was dense, sweet, warm & the melted chocolate sauce was a dream! It was so delicious & amazing to try a Belgium waffle that was vegan! Thank you for thinking of the vegans who want to enjoy Belgium classics!

A Hidden Gem for Vegan Waffles in Brussels! If you’re in Brussels and craving vegan waffles, this is the place to be! Tucked right in the heart of the city, this little spot serves fresh, delicious, and 100% vegan waffles—a true rarity in town. What makes the experience even better is the amazing guy running the place. Friendly, warm, and genuinely passionate about what he does—he makes you feel right at home. His service is as memorable as the waffles! The prices are surprisingly economical, especially given the prime location and the quality of what’s being served. Crispy on the outside, soft inside, and bursting with flavor—these waffles are a must-try whether you’re vegan or not. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Brussels. You won’t find a better vegan waffle experience anywhere else!

Vegan waffles in Brussels are very hard to come by so this is an amazing spot. It’s tucked away in a small shopping mall but there’s signage at the entrance and you can see Veganwaf from outside looking in. Their waffles are also gluten free for those in need. The waffles are made fresh to order and taste delicious and fluffy. You can then choose your toppings of sauces, creams and fruits. I (vegan) had salty caramel and banana and my omnivore partner had just chocolate. They were both delicious and we said we would have gone back time and time again if we were staying in Brussels for longer.

This is pure gold! Best waffles I had in Brussels. Other places make it crispier and with more “air” inside, this one is perfectly crispy like a cookie on the outside and soft like a cake inside. I couldn’t tell the difference in flavor since this one has no eggs in it. I’m not vegan and I even thought this one was more tasty. Absolutely love it! Paid 9 euro for this one, 6,50 euro for 2 toppings + 2,50 for strawberries. Greetings from Brazil :)

Thank you! So wonderful to be able to try a Belgian Waffle while visiting Brussels. I’m gluten free and my mum is vegan, so we were so happy to accidentally find this place.

We have a family member with an allergy to peanuts and tree nuts. We assumed we wouldn't be able to have a waffle in Brussels. At one of the places we went to they suggested Veganwaf because they'd be able to accomodate his allergies. There wasn't anything on the menu he couldn't have. Waffles were made fresh, tasty and reasonably priced.

We got vegan waffles with chocolate and cream and they were pretty decent. I think you can tell they're gluten-free as they're not fluffy. Surprisingly crunchy. It's just off the main square but in a strange indoor shopping centre.

Belgian waffles are a must-try street food in Belgium, especially in Brussels. The thick, square waffles come in two popular varieties: the slightly sweeter Liege waffle and the Brussels waffle. They have deep pockets perfect for holding various toppings like powdered sugar, chocolate sauce, or fresh fruit. You can find them at waffle stands all over the city and they are often enjoyed with a cup of coffee or tea.
Having tried about a dozen waffles in Brussels, they all look the same and they all taste just about the same, not really great. There really isn’t much difference except for one place. This place where the waffles are fresh, the service is amazing and the taste is just out of this world. A fresh made waffle, not a reheated one. This is a great place. I will be back many many many times to come. Fresh crispy perfection!

This place is great! The waffles are crisp, light and delicious. The staff is friendly and quick. We really can’t recommend it highly enough. It is a small place but well laid out, so we had no problems finding seats inside both mornings we ate here. Likely the best waffle spot you will find.
Brian J — Google review
when in brussels, i was dead set on trying two things: fries and waffles. it became an obsession. i couldn’t rest until both cravings were satisfied. this spot looked great and was nearby, so i gave it a shot. you can choose between the liège and the brussels waffle. the liège being smaller and sweeter, the brussels lighter and less sugary. naturally, i picked the liège with caramel sauce… which, in hindsight, was a bold (and slightly disastrous) move for someone who doesn’t love overly sweet things. i sat outside at one of their cute little tables facing the street, perfect for people-watching while waiting. soon, a kind waiter brought out my waffle: warm, glossy, and smelling like heaven. the first bite confirmed it: deliciously fresh, crunchy outside, soft inside… and way too sweet for me. but that’s on me, not the waffle. if i had gone for the brussels one and skipped the caramel, it probably would’ve been perfect. also, minor personal torture: wooden cutlery. i can’t stand the texture, but again, that’s a me problem. overall, the place is lovely and totally worth it. just learn from my mistakes and order wisely if you’re not big on sugar.
Elena M — Google review
I was genuinely shocked by how bad the waffle was. The outside looked decent, but once you bite into it, it’s a total letdown. The inside was soggy, doughy, and strangely undercooked as if it hadn’t been baked properly. The texture was heavy and unappetizing, and the overall taste felt artificial. Overpriced not recommended.
Nasma S — Google review
Omg... PERFECTION!!! I finally tried the waffles here and let me just say - life-changing. Hands down the best thing I've eaten in Belgium so far!! Crispy on the outside, soft and warm inside, and every bite just melts in your mouth. It's sweet, buttery, and pure happiness. And can we talk about their service?? The staff were sooo kind and welcoming - like genuine smiles, quick service, and they actually make you feel at home

They offer two types of waffles (Brussels and Liège) and everything is freshly made. My waffle was served very hot, just cooked. You can choose any topping you like. I went for melted chocolate, and it was absolutely delicious. It was sweet but not too sugary, just perfectly balanced. There was a small line in the evening, so you might need to wait a few minutes, but it’s definitely worth it!

In Belgium on holiday via discussion we decided to go in. I have had many waffles in the last 6 weeks through Europe. This place is one that you need to walk past Waffle was not cooked properly. Icecream has thawed and been refrozen leaving the ice crystals through both flavours. Partner had Salted caramel with Banana. Mine was cupaccino. For what you are paying a better dish than this should have been presented

The Waffle Factory is a chain with locations in Belgium, France, and Dubai. While it offers traditional Brussels and Liege waffles, it stands out with unique creations like the Lunchwhaf, a savory waffle stuffed with meats, cheeses, vegetables, and even curry. For those with a sweet tooth, The Waffine is a crispy waffle filled with Nutella and white chocolate.

Good taste but little slow on delivery even with less crowd in the shop. Atmosphere is good. Price is good as they have space for seating also. 1 star less only for speed of cooking, rest all was great.
Dinesh S — Google review
I Tried the Waffle Factory and was honestly underwhelmed. The prices are quite high compared to other waffle spots in the city, and the quality doesn’t match the cost. Surprisingly, the savory waffles were better than the sweet ones, which lacked the richness you'd expect from a Belgian waffle. The hot chocolate was very disappointing — extremely light in taste, almost like colored water. The interior has an industrial feel that lacks warmth or charm, making the experience feel more like a fast food stop than a cozy waffle café. Not the best choice if you're looking for authentic Belgian waffle vibes.

I ordered a waffle with milk chocolate and pistachio sauce along with an iced Americano. The waffle itself was average, and the outside tables could have been cleaner. However, I really appreciate the staff — the iced Americano wasn’t on the menu, but they kindly made it for me. Great service from the team!

Nestled in Les Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert, Mokafé Taverne is a charming Euro cafe adored by locals for its heavenly Brussels waffles. The bistro-style eatery offers classic waffles like the cherry-topped option or the indulgent Mikado with vanilla ice cream and hot chocolate. Beyond waffles, Mokafé Taverne also excels in other offerings such as omelets and home-style main courses.
Highly recommend this restaurant! The staff provides excellent service, the prices are reasonable, and the food is truly delicious. The waffles are amazing—authentic square-shaped waffles that are perfectly crispy. The egg toast is also fantastic. The dining atmosphere is pleasant, with lots of artwork displayed throughout the space.

Inside the Galerie de San Hubert in the centre of Brussels. We went there three evenings running because we liked it so much. Relaxing atmosphere - just watching the world go by. Very busy all day, but quietens down around 8pm. Loads of different beer choices and really tasty food.

The waffles were wonderfully crisp on the outside yet springy inside, so I visited twice during my stay. I think the plain one best showcases the batter, though the cream is also delicious with its subtly sweet flavour. I ordered cream and hot chocolate. The hot chocolate was made with dark chocolate and was absolutely delicious. This is indeed the town of chocolate. They were very accommodating with requests, such as swapping the ice cream for fresh cream.

Los Churros & Waffle, with two locations near Grand Place in Brussels, offers a delightful fusion of Spanish and Belgian treats. While their name suggests a focus on churros, they are equally adept at crafting delicious Belgian waffles. The waffles are adorned with an array of colorful and towering toppings that make for impressive Instagram-worthy creations. Despite the long queues, the wait is worthwhile as you savor the hot, sweet, and mouthwatering goodness of their waffles.
Good waffle. I had the crunchy biscuits with caramel. It was a bit sweet for my taste, but nonetheless good. Hats off to the guy who works there for giving a free hot chocolate to some needy man off the street during a cold winter night.

Nothing special. Flavor wise, it's just mediocre when compared to other waffles around there. Often made by students or part timers. They have locations all over town & their hours're better than most waffle places rest - open early for breakfast. Only go here if you're on the run or up super early in the morning.

Sorry, can't give more than 3 *, the staff is kind and they work good. The con was that my waffle was overcooked and a bit burned. To be honest I do like it a bit like this, but with only one fork (that can be used as a knife as it has knife on one of the sides) it was almost impossible to cut... My gf waffle was better though.. The price is okay for the center, especially in that area.

When in Brussels, indulging in an Obe Belgian waffle is a must. Known locally as gaufres, these sweet treats are available at gaufreries throughout the city. These waffles are a delightful and necessary indulgence, with various flavors to choose from. While some may find it disappointing that the decorated waffles may not always match what's served, the wide range of Belgian products offered makes up for it.
No visit to Brussels is complete without a Belgian waffle! Admittedly, I usually go for the classic waffle, without any toppings or sauce, just a crispy waffle! But we happened to pass by here, and there was already a pretty long line! What can I say? The wait was worth it! Delicious waffles and a huge variety of toppings and sauces. Light chocolate, dark chocolate, caramel, fresh strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries... everyone will find something here! We'll definitely be back!

You simply can't leave Belgium without indulging in their delightful waffles and exquisite chocolate! The experience is truly worth the wait in line. It's conveniently located, just a short stroll of less than five minutes from my hotel. I must say, the waffle topped with pistachio and chocolate was absolutely delicious! The service was quick, and the prices were quite reasonable too. Enjoy your visit!

Alexander N — Google review
Not at all worth the wait or hype. We were thinking of eating a well balanced crispy waffle with some chocolate sweetness and sour tasting berries. What we got was a caramelized hard waffle, overly sweet chocolate sauce and sugar coated (again too sweet) hazelnut. The dark and white chocolate sauce both were too sweet and after eating the waffle we felt very nauseous and extremely full! Note: On owner's reply to my message above I'd like to add, I chose chocolate sauce but that does not mean it is supposed to have heaps of sugar, I expect the sweetness in normal amount. Also, the hygiene level and handling of fruits by the employees was very questionable (ps. Cutting fruits with the same hand and taking payments/touching screens). Ultimately, sweetness level and hardness of waffles is a subjective matter. For me it was very hard and chewy with too sweet chocolate sauce. Also dear Obe, the reviews are not for you to give a sassy reply to every person who has a bad feedback for you, it is just for the business to improve their model for future customers. Take it or leave it, not my loss.

The waffle itself was okay, but the batter felt quite heavy and filling, not the light and crispy kind I was hoping for. What really surprised me, though, was the topping. According to the menu, my order was supposed to include two portions of strawberries. In reality, it was just a few tiny slices, probably three small strawberries in total. That left me wondering what a single portion looks like, because this definitely didn’t feel generous for the price. I also went for the “premium chocolate,” expecting something a bit more special, but it honestly tasted like ordinary melted milk chocolate (something you could easily get from a supermarket brand like Milka). It was good, but nowhere near the kind of rich, decadent flavor I imagined when I read “premium.” Overall, the waffle was tasty, but not extraordinary. For 8€, I expected something more impressive both in terms of portion size and quality. It wasn’t bad by any means, but it didn’t deliver that wow factor you’d expect at this price point.

The rectangular Brussels waffles are light and crispy, often enjoyed with various toppings like strawberries, melted chocolate, or whipped cream. On the other hand, the Liege waffles are oval-shaped, denser, and contain sugar pearls inside. Maison Dandoy is another popular tearoom nearby known for its delicious classic waffles and speculoos.

Sheida — Google review
We tried Aux Gaufres de Bruxelles to eat waffles in Belgium for the first time, and unfortunately, it was such a bad experience that it almost made me afraid to try waffles in Belgium again. I ordered a Brussels waffle, but they gave me a Liège waffle instead. It was chewy, raw inside, and I could actually taste the uncooked flour. It was impossible to swallow. The so-called “chocolate sauce” was not real chocolate — it tasted like cheap vegetable oil mixed with cocoa powder. The strawberries were sour, even though it’s strawberry season, which was very disappointing. When I returned the waffle and asked for a properly baked one, the staff member threw mine away aggressively, spoke in a language I didn’t understand, and was extremely rude. He insisted that “the waffle is supposed to taste like this,” but I know very well how waffles should taste, and this was nothing like it. Later, I tried waffles at other places such as Maison Dandoy, Albert, and others, and the difference was huge — the quality there was excellent. The coffee not taste a coffee When I went to set in there area they rejected as I need to pay extra when I ordered to set. Overall, this was a terrible experience. Don’t waste your money here. For the same price, you can enjoy authentic, delicious waffles at much better places.

This was our first place to eat waffles in all of Belgium and so we wanted it to be great....and it was. I'm not going to say that it was the best waffles ever because I am not a waffle connoisseur. But I will say that I judged every other waffle based on this experience and based on 4 days of eating waffles across 4 cities in Belgium that this was one of my favourite experiences. I had the Brussels and the Liege waffle side by side to compare and I discovered that my preference is to the Brussels style. I preferred the super light and crispy texture instead of the thicker and denser nature of the Liège. The Liège was good, but not my preference.....and yes it is supposed to be that way. Lots of toppings choices, handy to the square and to car parking (and I need to do a 5 star review for the car park too - which I mention here in order to say that having a close car park makes going here extra worth it for those driving). Prices are good compared to everywhere else I tried it. Toilets (WC) were clean, staff were good, but typical and certainly friendly and helpful. Hot chocolate was good. For toppings I had chocolate, fruit and ice cream....all were good but I wished that the strawberries were spectacular. I am so used to being blown away by strawberries here compared to back home but these felt like back home. Highly recommend for price, service speed, seating, convenience and most of all...taste. We spent a total of 86Euro and had: An international Breakfast 3 brussels waffles, 1 liege waffle 9 toppings 2 juices 1 large fries (which were also very good) and free water. I would probably consider the toppings to be priced a little higher than expected BUT its a super nice place to sit and eat in a great location so that's what you are paying for

This charming spot specializes in freshly made dough that transforms into mouthwatering waffles topped with an array of creative options.

It's a very good waffle store. This is a take-out only. You can actually see the waffles being made because of the glass wall. I ordered the vanilla waffle with chocolate topping. The waffle was fluffy, sticky and just the right amount of sweetness! I highly recommend this waffle shop in Brussels.
R M — Google review
I have to say, these waffles are truly exceptional. I tried the raspberry waffle with whipped cream and it honestly exceeded my expectations. The whipped cream alone deserves a special mention, it instantly earned a spot in my personal top three, simply because it doesn’t taste like the typical store-bought kind. It has that fresh, homemade quality with a light, creamy texture that feels authentic rather than artificial. The waffle itself has a subtle, slightly tangy note from the raspberries, which balances beautifully with the sweetness and richness of the cream. This contrast makes every bite interesting, never overwhelming or too sugary. It feels carefully thought out: simple ingredients, but elevated through the way they’re combined. In general, I’d say these are some of the best waffles I’ve had in this city. On top of that, the prices are refreshingly fair, especially compared to some of the more “famous” places that charge much more for a far less memorable experience.

Look no further. After trying many waffles across the city, this is the one. The Liège waffle here is absolute perfection. It's dense and chewy with a rich, buttery flavour, but the magic is in the pearl sugar. It creates this incredible crispy, caramelized crust on the outside while some bits inside remain crunchy. Served warm, it's a truly unforgettable treat. Don't waste your time elsewhere!

This waffle store is amazing. Only available for take-out. You can see how they make the waffles through the glass wall. We got the vanilla, chocolate, and raspberries.

The pistachio ice cream is the best ice cream I have ever had in my life. It was creamy and had such a silky texture that melted in your mouth like velvet, and it didn’t have that artificial taste of pistachio, it tasted just like you expected it to and wasn’t too sweet at all! And the cone was such a great crunchy texture and nutty flavor that combined perfectly with the ice cream!! Such a great sweet 🍦

Great ice cream, not-so-great staff. We went to the till to order, but the lady there rushed us and rudely said she didn’t care about our choices, just the number of scoops. After paying, we moved to the service counter and asked for one of the dark chocolate flavors, only to be told it cost 50 cents extra. With a queue behind us, we chose a different flavor to avoid holding things up. This could’ve been avoided if we were allowed to pick our flavors before paying. On top of that, the staff kept giggling and gave off an arrogant vibe — not a pleasant atmosphere.

Appalling service at the counter second time in a row. First time, a few weeks ago, the assistant serving ice-cream didn’t bother to look at the receipt, and then proceeded to tell me what I had paid for. I raised my voice and insisted on what I had paid for, then he took the time to look at the receipt. Another staff member spoke with him and he apologized to me. Second occasion, just yesterday, 17 July in the evening, the counter assistant was downright rude, although I observed she was very obliging with the male clientele. She didn’t bother giving me a receipt. One of my orders was ready immediately and I was asked to wait for the second at my table (they gave me a number). Thirty minutes later and my partner has finished his ice cream and I’m sitting with nothing in front of me except the number 18. Several servers have passed and not bothered to inquire as to what I have been waiting so long for. My partner approaches one of them and tells her I’ve been waiting far too long. She eventually approaches me and asks me what I ordered and to see my receipt. I tell her what I ordered (she gets it wrong so I tell her a second time) and that the assistant at the counter didn’t give me one. She refuses to prepare my order without proof. I have to open my banking app and show her the transaction details at Gaston. Satisfied, she tells me she’ll go and prepare it. In the meantime, she comes back and offers us a coffee on the house and apologizes. Too little too late. What appalling service. We’re not going back and we’re sharing the experiences with friends, family, colleagues…

Bia Mara is a seafood restaurant in Brussels that offers a unique twist on traditional fish and chips. The founders, Barry and Simon, have introduced innovative recipes using sustainably sourced, lesser-known fish species with light breadcrumb coatings. Their menu features creative options such as lemon and basil-infused tempura of sea bream with garlic truffle and Indian-spiced panko hake with curry lime sauce.
Had fish and chips at Bia Mara in Brussels and honestly, it was the best I’ve ever had. Super crispy, full of flavor, and those seaweed salted fries were something else. Loved sitting outside—great vibe and perfect spot to chill. Would 100% go back.

The venue is basic with uncomfortably small tables. But buzzy due to many people in a confined space. The waiter brought out the wrong beer but quickly replaced it and no charge for the "error". Anyone can make a mistake but this one was quickly and efficiently resolved. However, our main mission was to try their much hyped fish and chips. The portions were a decent size made up mostly of chips. Sadly, these were pretty bland. The fish was fresh but not a lot of it, and it suffered from the same lack of flavour. We did try two different styles of the catch of the day, the classic and a rosemary thyme version. Neither of us liked the latter. The classic was OK, but we were expecting more than just OK. My partner, who was only recently introduced to the delight that is fish and chips, commented that these were the worst she'd ever eaten. Overall, a disappointing experience that failed to justify the Brussels tourist prices.

When I was making payment by Apple Pay on the POS card reader, the staff clicked on the '10% tip’ herself and asked me to wave my phone. It was a rude gesture, and I was taken aback! Because in Belgium, it's not common for restaurants to automatically add a tip to the bill, service charges are typically included in the price of meals. I would gladly tip for great service if I wanted to. Being a savvy Asian tourist, I immediately changed the 10% tip to the ‘no tip' option and then wave my phone. To the service staff : You could have earned yourself a tip from me if you didn't click on the 10%, thinking I won't notice. To the owner of Bia Mara : You can check your Brussels Center restaurant's CCTV for 10th July 7.42pm transaction when your staff pressed the 10% tip by herself. ALL PATRONS, PLEASE SPEND 5 SECS TO CHECK YOUR FINAL BILL ON THE POS SCREEN BEFORE WAVING YOUR CARD / PHONE!!!

So good! Nice place in the city center. The fish is tender, the dough on the batter is crunchy. French fries are yummy too. The tartar sauce is perfectly balanced. Loved the house rose as well. Service was super friendly even though the place was busy. Definitely highly recommend.

Maison Antoine, a historic hut established in 1948, is renowned for serving classic Belgian fries with a wide selection of sauces, along with burgers and snacks. It has gained fame as one of the best places to savor frites in Brussels and has been visited by numerous celebrities over the years. The portions are generous, prices are reasonable, and the variety of sauces adds to the experience. The iconic happy cone on the window signals that Maison Antoine's frites are welcome at nearby bars.
My friend recommended this place when I asked him if I wanna try a great fries restaurant in Brussels. 1- The place was super crowded where you have to wait in queue to get your fries. 2- There is a small window to the left where you won't find it busy, but its cash only. 3- The service is super fast. 4- The prices are fair. 5- The fries at this place are amazing, fresh, and so tasty. This place was one of the best fries I have ever tried in my entire life.

We waited in line for about 30 minutes and were served hard fries that seemed to come from the bottom of the batch. It was our first visit to Brussels, and we thought this would be the best place to try authentic fries, but we were a bit disappointed. The sauces were nice, though, and the meat croquettes were also good. If you want a better experience, I’d recommend asking for fries that aren’t from the bottom of the batch and are freshly made. Price is good, only 4€ for a large fries which is good for two if you also get a couple of their huge croquettes.

Probably the most well-known spot for fries in Brussels. The line can be long, but it moves quickly, and the whole setup works well — grab your cone, choose a sauce (there are many), and head to one of the nearby bars that let you eat your fries with a beer. The fries are very good — golden, crispy, soft inside — though not my personal favorite in Belgium. Still, it’s a classic for a reason and worth a stop, especially if you haven’t been. Go for the Andalouse or Samuraï if you want something with a bit of a kick, or just stick with the mayo. The large portion is generous. Touristy, yes — but not in a bad way. It still delivers. PS. My face here is after trying out 6 frites vendors so the recommendations are more or less foolproof .

As soon as I walked in, I noticed a foreigner staring at me—turns out it was because of my Jing-A jacket! 😂 After chatting, I found out he’s actually the owner of Sweden’s Apex Brewery, who just did a collab at 8x8 last week! If you’ve already checked off Cantillon, 3 Fonteinen, Boerenerf and Delirium in Brussels, this place is definitely worth a visit. About half of their tap list is lambic, usually around €6–7 per glass. They also feature some innovative Belgian breweries and modern styles. 📸 Photo 5: the new lambic blendery Black-Belle 📸 Photo 6: a Belgian hazy IPA 📸 Photo 7: a brewery-exclusive Pilsner They also brew their own mead and kombucha in-house. Every beer tasted fresh and clean—no off-flavors at all. And if you hit it off with the bartender, you might even get a free sample! 🍻

Nice outdoor seating and a wide selection of desserts. However, the service could be more welcoming, and while the cakes are visually appealing, they don’t quite deliver on taste. I also wasn't impressed with their best-seller Lingor d’Or. It's basically a marshmallow with fruits and whipped cream.

Nestled a bit outside the bustling heart of Brussels, Frit Flagey is an iconic frites stand that has captured the hearts of locals and visitors alike. A leisurely 35-minute stroll from the city center leads you to this beloved spot in Ixelles, where you can savor some of Belgium's finest fries while soaking in the charming surroundings, including a picturesque walk around Ixelles Ponds.
Recommended, worth visiting. The fries were really good. It’s not soggy and despite covering it with sauces, was still crunchy and well cooked. The Dallas sauce was an amazing dip, it’s really nice though i can’t tell what it’s made of. Tasted like a mix of ketchup, mayonnaise and some chili? The small is already quite a huge portion for one pax. The skewer (Brochette Ardenne?) was nice too. It went very well with the Dallas sauce as well and worth to try if you need something more filling to go with the fries. The service was good although I couldnt understand the language, the staff tried their best to explain. Food was pretty quick to serve, just had to wait slightly longer for the skewer. Location wise, it’s just right at the Flagey bus station plaza. Pretty convenient and it’s kind of an open area with benches so you could have the fries and people watch. There’s a nearby Delhaize mart to get beer or soft drinks too.

If you’re in Brussels and even thinking about trying Belgian fries, Frit Flagey is non-negotiable. Tucked just off Place Flagey, this little fritkot serves up some of the crispiest, fluffiest fries you’ll ever eat—twice-fried the traditional Belgian way, golden on the outside and creamy on the inside. Yes, there’s almost always a line. But take that as a good sign: locals, students, tourists, and even late-night wanderers all queue up for a reason. The service is surprisingly quick, and the staff manage to stay friendly no matter how busy it gets. What sets it apart? The sheer crunch of the fries, for one. But also the wide range of sauces—andalouse and samurai are crowd favorites, but don’t overlook their tartare or spicy Brasil. The portions are generous (even a medium cone could feed two), and they come piping hot in that iconic white paper cone.

It's one of the better fry shops in Brussels. It has a cult-like following that will swear it's the best, for good reason. If you are able to catch the fry place without a queue then it is definitely worth it. Though, if the queue is long, I am not sure if I'd wait more than 5 minutes for them. I liked the more humorous nature of the fry shop, making it whimsical.

I heard that this is the best fries in Belgium? I never really expected to try I thought it was kinda out of the way but I didn't expect it to be so near the plaza where I alighted when I visited Ixelles. The queue was quite long but was efficient as they were prepared quite fast. My impression of people selling fries in Belgium is not so good because I see a lot of fries already cooked so I have an impression the fries served is not hot but it turns out otherwise. As usual this is one of the other fries place I tried and the fries are hot and good. I asked the guy to recommend me a sauce and he just told me to pick 1 of their 17 sauces. Not a pleasant answer but I chose the curry sauce. Turned out it was a good dip with the fries. I don't know how did it become the best fries I thought it was pretty good and quite similar to the other fries I have tasted. Recommended if you happen to be in Ixelles area.

Laurent Gerbaud is a renowned chocolatier located in Brussels, offering a range of delectable chocolates and hot cocoa. The chocolate-making workshops held at his Rue Ravenstein address are a popular attraction for visitors looking to learn the art of making authentic Belgian chocolate. During these workshops, participants have the opportunity to taste various cocoa beans, create their own chocolate, and sample selections from Laurent Gerbaud's exquisite collection.
One of the locals recommended Laurent Gerbaud to get some hot chocolate and Belgian pralines. Truly it was a super rich and creamy hot chocolate - not sweet like many of the other chains that add sugar to sweeten the drink up. You also get one free praline to go with your hot chocolate. The shop is very comfortable and a good place to have a rest after a long walk around the city.

Stepping into Laurent Gerbaud in Brussels, I definitely had high hopes given the city's reputation for amazing chocolate. They've got a great selection of chocolate drinks, ice cream, and those little chocolate cubes. I tried a few of their chocolate cubes, and they were pretty decent. However, I have to say, it was tough to tell the different flavors apart – they all kind of blended together for me, which was a bit of a shame since I was expecting distinct tastes. I also went for the iced dark chocolate, and it was just okay. While the flavor was there, it felt a bit on the watery side, which made it feel less rich and decadent than I was hoping for, especially for a dark chocolate drink. It just didn't have that super thick, luxurious feel you often expect from a really good chocolate place. Overall, it was an interesting visit, but maybe not quite what I envisioned for a top-tier chocolate experience in Brussels. It's a nice spot, but I think there's room for improvement, especially with the texture of their drinks and the distinctiveness of their chocolate cube flavors.

I visited the shop hoping to enjoy a truly special hot chocolate, under the impression that it was a dedicated chocolaterie. Unfortunately, the drink turned out to be quite ordinary—just cocoa powder mixed with milk. Pleasant enough, but far from exceptional. It seems the establishment may be better known for its chocolates rather than its hot chocolate offerings. I had expected something richer, perhaps made with melted chocolate and varying cocoa percentages like 50% or 80%. That level of depth and indulgence was missing, and I left somewhat disappointed. It’s also worth noting that the shop operates on a semi self-service model: you place your order at the counter, and the staff bring it to your table. On the bright side, the team was friendly and helpful throughout the experience.

The simple Belgian chocolate one was OK but not great while the one with pineapple and coconut ice-cream was delicious.

But the Brussels waffle was the BEST one of the day. And we ate A LOT of waffles that day. The waffle itself was not particularly special. Don't get me wrong; it was good. But the toppings they offered is what took it to the next level. They have a lot of options: chocolate banana, strawberry chocolate, caramel, oreo, bueno... i don't even remember them all but they looked equally fantastic. We had a speculoos waffle that was absolutely delicious. The waffle is impossible to cut with the plastic silverware they give you, so we found the best option was actually to slide it out along the end of the container and take one delicious bite at a time. Try it. You won't be disappointed!

Pardon Brussels is a cozy café located in Saint Gilles, run by two passionate baristas. They offer an extensive selection of artisanal waffles made from high-quality ingredients, including Liege, Brussels, sweet, savory, brioche, and Flanders waffles. These delectable treats are served alongside exceptional coffee and a variety of teas from Univers du the.
Excellent place to enjoy a waffle and a nice coffee. On the pricier side but to be expected for this type of place. The vibe is way more chill than in other equivalent places and the staff is lovely. Would recommend !

Lovely Cafe that serves the most amazing waffles. Ordered a savoury waffles paired with roasted beetroots and avocado with pickles on the side. Though this menu might be seasonal. The pardons are wonderfully sized parcel-size waffles with chocolates, brilliant dessert. Coffee was spot on and the staff are super friendly. A worthwhile visit.

The small waffle is the Belgium waffle and the big one is the Brussels waffle. The whipped cream, butter, or syrup are sides, which are separate and to order. We also ordered a BXL Brunch which included juice, hot drink, filled Brussels waffle and 3 sides which cost €21. Very delicious, many interesting flavors. It's a cozy place so it takes a while to get your waffles made to order--It's worth the wait, and the price for a special visit :)

Beyond Waffles is a must-visit spot in the northern part of Brussels' city center, offering a fun and cheerful atmosphere with colorful decor. The warm and friendly staff, along with their delicious waffles, handmade drinks, and ice cream, create an inviting experience for visitors. In addition to traditional sweet waffles topped with cream, sugar, or chocolate sauce, they also offer a unique twist by serving savory waffle burgers with high-quality meat and jalapenos for a spicy kick.
Tried their smoky waffle burger—it was delicious! It came with fries, and of course, they were so good and crunchy. The sauce really made both the burger and fries taste even better.

Very delicious waffles, especially the burger one. Good thing is that it's all HALAL. not the traditional waffles you'd expect in Belgium, but it's totally worth it. For the sweet waffles, ingredients and options are unlimited whether you want different sauces, different kinds of fruits, biscuits, or ice cream. Highly recommend 👌 👍

We ordered burger waffle sandwiches here with the smoked bacon sauce, which was just as yummy on the fries as the burger. The atmosphere was cute and music up-beat. The shop employees were friendly. It took a while to have our food freshly made. If you are used to burger restaurants being a fast-food restaurant, please realize this is not a “fast food” restaurant and set your expectations accordingly. The owner came out to explain that all the foods were “homemade” or as we would say, “made from scratch” which is why it took a bit longer. I would recommend the food here, super tasty, lovingly made, very delicious!

We had an incredible experience at Beyond Waffles in Brussels! The owner and staff were absolutely wonderful, going above and beyond to explain everything in detail, making the visit even more enjoyable. The sweet fruit waffle bowl with crème fraiche was light, airy, and not overly sweet, thanks to their homemade low-sugar batter and fresh fruit. It was a refreshing take on the typical heavy waffle. The savoury "Mac" waffle burger, made with bio-beef and thinner waffles, was perfectly balanced with amazing homemade truffle mayo. We also enjoyed two refreshing homemade non-alcoholic cocktails—lavender and raspberry—both made without sugar. Highly recommend for fresh, made-to-order waffles (not frozen), and top-notch quality and service! **Hands down the best waffle place in Brussels!** Thanks so much! - S&B

A la Mort Subite is a historic bar-restaurant in Brussels that has remained virtually unchanged since it opened in 1928. The establishment, named after a card game called 'Sudden Death,' features arched mirrors, pillars, and brass pipes. It is a favorite among beer enthusiasts for its traditional Brussels beers such as Lambik, Gueuze, and Faro.
We had such a great time here. 5 of us sat outside and our waiter was very nice and knew his beer very well. He loved our choices of beer and it was great to share our tasting notes together. He was personable and funny too!

A la Mort Subite in Brussels is on the map; it’s well-known and frequented by locals and tourists alike. At more than 115 years old, this Brussels institution has a history of welcoming writers, those in business and more. Go there to step back in time and admire the tall ceilings and the old posters adorning the walls. Have a kriek (cherry beer), or any other beer or glass of wine. Beers can be served in three sizes. Speaking of sizes, the food portions are respectable including when you order a portion of bread (for a small fee) - the slices of bread are gigantic. The team working at A La Mort Subite are used to the crowds and do their best to find empty tables / seats for those just entering and they are prompt with delivering orders. For the nostalgia, the beer and the food, definitely visit A La Mort Subite in historic Brussels.

This is the worst food I’ve ever had! It’s way too expensive. The wine they served wasn’t even authentic, and it’s cheaper in the supermarket. 😓😓 The horse meat was almost raw and bloody, and the beef stew was too sweet. I feel like I completely wasted my money. On top of that, the female waiter was very rude.

An old place in Brussels city center that’s been around for 100 years. The vintage interior, with its weathered tables and chairs, makes its age immediately apparent. But it seems to have lost some of the old-world charm and courtesy it once embodied. The wait staff are indifferent—and worse, they seem downright miserable. I don't expect anyone to fall at my feet and butter me up but you’d think a smile wouldn’t be too much to ask. Maybe it’s a cultural difference, but at these prices, you’d naturally expect better service. Food and beers are overpriced compared to elsewhere. Not worth the cash or the attitude. Just snap a photo and bounce.

We were a group of around 8 people and still managed to get a table for all of us. The food tasted really good – I had the salmon quiche. The prices are on the higher side, but as a tourist in Brussels, I can't say for sure if that's typical for the city. Nice place with a good selection of Belgian beer and snacks. What I find really strange and inappropriate is that, as a group, we were not allowed to split the bill — we had to sort it out among ourselves. For this point, minus one star.

A few days back, we found ourselves once again drawn to the timeless charm of À La Mort Subite, one of Brussels' most iconic beer cafés. Known for its classic Belgian atmosphere, rich wooden interiors, and an impressive selection of traditional brews. Hapkin (on tap) A strong blond ale poured with a golden glow and a creamy head, it delivered subtle hints of citrus, spice, and a smooth malty backbone. Chimay (on tap) Chimay Red, which brought deep notes of dried fruits, caramel, and a touch of spice. Rodenbach (from the bottle) Flemish red-brown ale, with its characteristic sweet-and-sour profile, had subtle hints of oak, and berries. Refreshing, and uniquely Belgian. Dessert: Tiramisu All Around To round things off, tiramisu was unanimously chosen — and rightfully so. The place is located well but the service was too slow. Recommended only for beer tasting not the food.

Very mixed opinion about this place since the food was well done, tasted really well. The view and scenery is something you cqnnot find that easily in Brussel. Small chill island in Ter Kamerenbos. But the service of the waiters was very underwhelming, some waiters were not allowed to take our orders, we never received our requests for mayonnaise with fries (you know we Belgians need mayonaise with the fries!) 😅 Had to wait a while for them to ask for our order. 1 Waiter could not even force to smile once after taking our order. The last waiter who brought us our dessert was sweet so i guess you need to be lucky with who is serving you. I loved the food and atmosphere. The only working point will be the service. Tip: dont forget to bring 1 euro for the boat ride per person, even if you have a table reserved.

What a brunch!! Loads of choice, no compromise on quality and a stunning terrace, what more can you ask for. What is quite surprising is that the small ferry service is a euro per head… I would have thought that this was included in the price of the brunch. Nonetheless the short trip is unique and adds to the overall experience. Thanks Chalet Robinson!

The experience was nice especially it’s my first time having the brunch. The food choice was great and the service was fast and friendly! Although I have some advices that I hope will be taken into account : - Cloth napkin instead of tissue (especially for the price of the brunch); - Real spoon for cafe and not the wooden stick we usually get at gas stations (especially that it’s « à la carte » and not offered on the brunch); - Put table cloth on all the tables in the 1st floor (not just for big tables but also for tables for two) so everyone feels special; - Always have the expected amount of food until 3pm because it’s not fair for those who booked the 1pm slot and don’t have the same amount of food as the one who booked the 10:30am slot; - Have a space dedicated for the cold food not only ont the 1st floor but also on the ground floor (cold cuts, breads, etc) and keep the hot food on the 1st floor so those who are on the ground floor doesn’t feel neglected.

I’m sad I didn’t get enough pictures of this p’ace and the food, but that usually means I was enjoying myself to the point that I couldn’t be bothered to take pics! This place is one of the nicest places I went to in Brussels, you take a moving platform, wouldn’t call it a boat, that is tugged by a rope and operated by someone, they ask for a 1 Euro payment per person. Once you are on the mini island, nice outdoor seating and the brasserie on the terrace, both very nice, but we went for dinner so after hanging around outside, we went inside to eat. We had the carpaccio and the entrecôte steak, both were lovely. Staff kindly admitted to us that fresh juices weren’t in fact fresh so we went for other choices, but overall great place, good food, and good service. Go when the weather is good!

Dark and atmospheric bar 🍺 set inside an antique building, which gives it a really cool vibe.

I recently visited this underground pub that was absolutely fantastic. The first thing that struck me was the great variety of beers available. There were so many different options to choose from, I could have spent hours trying them all! Additionally, the heavy metal music playing in the background added to the unique atmosphere of the place. The pub itself was like a time capsule, with vintage posters and decor that made it feel like I had stepped back in time. However, what really made the experience special was the friendly and welcoming service from the man behind the bar. He was super friendly to us and our son, which made us feel right at home. Overall, I had a fantastic time at this underground pub and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great beer selection, unique atmosphere, and friendly service. Whether you're a fan of heavy metal or just looking for a cool spot to hang out, this place is definitely worth a visit

Crowded but worth it -- if you get a seat, especially. People are friendly, beer selection is awesome and local, and they have live music! Space is really interesting -- barrel vaulted ceiling made out of brick seems like it's an old cellar or catacombs converted into an underground beer bar. Nice separation of rooms means there's an intimate feeling even in a crowded space.

Belgian Waffles & Brunch offers two types of waffles: Brussels and Liege. The Liege waffle, with caramelized bits of sugar in the batter, is a must-try. While Belgians usually enjoy their waffles plain or with powdered sugar, the Liege waffle is exceptional on its own. The restaurant is a favorite spot for breakfast, brunch, lunch, or simply indulging in delicious Belgian waffles.
The Liege waffles were so good we had to go back twice while staying in Brussels! Great service as well, very attentive, flexible, and friendly. The peanut butter power smoothie was delightful as well as the caramel waffle 😋 I highly recommend this place if you happen to be in Brussels Grand Place, easy to locate as well. We also had breakfast! Great options for food too.

The 3 star rating is for the use of frozen waffles. The restaurant is decorated fairly nice, and the service is quite well. The brunch items are cooked fresh, and the waffle did taste fairly well as well. Then we saw a delivery of frozen waffles being dropped off. For the price they are charging, I would have hoped they were freshly made waffles. It doesn't seem like it would be that much of a hard ask for that.

Did we come all the way from Canada to Belgium to try waffles? Yes, we did. The Belgian style waffle was our favourite as it was light, fluffy and more crispy and tasted really good with the savoury options. The liege waffle was sweeter and more dense, definitely better for the sweet options. Definitely review all the options before you get into line.

One of the highlights was the stunning gym on the top floor, offering breathtaking views of the city. It was the perfect spot to stay active and take in the sights.

Everyone we met was incredibly kind and helpful, from recommending restaurants to offering directions and local advice. Your warm hospitality made our stay memorable. We would happily return and can highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Brussels. 😊

Excellent stay! Modern, clean, and very well-located, just a short walk from the EU institutions and close to the metro. The rooms are spacious and quiet, with super comfortable beds. Great breakfast selection and friendly staff. Perfect for both business and leisure. Would definitely stay here again!

We only stayed for a night but had a fantastic stay! It was a comfy room and had lots of amenities (I.e. Full size toiletries, fridge, iron, etc). We told them we were celebrating our anniversary and they surprised us with some tasty pastries. The location was great, it was nice and close to the transit station. It was away from the city centre hustle and bustle which I appreciated from a noise perspective since it was right on the main road.

Performing arts theater
Toone, pronounced as "tone," is a historic puppet theater and tavern located in Brussels. Dating back to the 1600s, this small and old establishment offers an extensive history and a unique experience. The brewery on the first floor serves a wide selection of beers, including the famous Kwak on tap. Visitors are encouraged to enjoy a beer with a tartine and white cheese while watching entertaining puppet shows. The lively performances are enjoyed by both locals and tourists, regardless of language barriers.
A bar Hidden in the buzzing town of Brussels is a gem 💎 to hangout with friends. It's always full of people from all over the world. The service is fast and efficient. Overall, I just loved the place.

This theatre was an incredible experience! Funny and authentic. We watched a play on Carmen, trying to hold back laughter in between the amazingly funny dialogues. The play was in a mix of Flemish (Dutch) and French, but it wasn’t hard to follow on with in my experience. (I am Dutch and French speaking though.)

Fabulous spot to visit in Brussels. Full of authentic charm and history. There are puppets from the theatre dotted around and programmes/posters dating back to the earl 1900s. Brilliant beer selection. We visited around 12.30ish and could get a table. It was table seevice to stay then ordered at the bar. One of the best stops to visit in brussels!

Amazing marionette theatre. Better if you understand a bit of "Brusseleir" (sort of Brussels French - mix of French and Flemish with a bit of creativity on top) But also with less local linguistic insights, the play and the atmosphere in this little super traditional theatre is splendid.

We would not have found this bar had we not taken an adventurous turn down a non descript alley. It is also a functioning marionette / puppet theatre. We missed a show but enjoyed an amazing flight of beer at this beautiful historic pub. Do not go to Delirium if you are serious about your pubs, history and beer. Go here instead. .

Highly recommended! I was blown away by how awesome this venue and the performance were. The performance was in French--that was tough for me, but the puppeteers were very talented, including their voice acting. I also searched the story [Le Busso] plot online and could sort of follow along from my phone. There was a bar in the museum (which had plenty of cool pieces), lots of nice toilets in the nearby restrooms, and the value for the ticket was solid. There is no back support except against the walls so if you need that you may have to sit in the back. Seating is first-come first-served, so be early to get your preferred spot. You can't eat or drink during the show but intermission is long [30 minutes?]. Even if you don't go for a show, the downstairs bar is open to the public and has the former puppet theater as a seating venue, which also looks like a museum.

Galler Chocolatier is a must-visit for chocolate enthusiasts looking for unique flavors and alternatives to traditional pralines. The shop offers an array of chocolate products, including macarons with unexpected but delightful violet flavor. In addition to chocolates, the store also sells various sweet treats like pralines, candies, and marzipan. Visitors can even find novelty items like horseshoes and hammers made entirely of chocolate.
Delicious, high-quality chocolates in clean and modern packaging. I 💯 recommend going to this store if you want to take good Belgian chocolate home or if you are looking for a snack. If you like dark chocolate, try their Peru pralines, the taste is absolutely magic.

Galler is an excellent choice for those visiting Brussels in search of quality chocolate. With a wide range of products that cater to all tastes, the brand stands out for the refined flavor of its chocolates, especially the truffles, which I believe are a true highlight. The history of Galler dates back to 1976, when Jean Galler founded the company with the ambition of creating chocolates that combined innovation and tradition. Since then, the brand has been synonymous with excellence, recognized for its dedication to craftsmanship and the quality of its ingredients. Compared to other prestigious chocolate houses in Brussels, Galler offers more affordable prices, making it a choice that provides great value for money. While it may be considered a safer and less daring option compared to more famous and extravagant brands, Galler's products still manage to surprise with their authenticity and refined taste. Overall, Galler chocolates provide a delicious and balanced experience. A reliable choice for chocolate lovers looking to explore an alternative that combines quality, variety, and good pricing.

Manneken Pis Waffles offers a delightful taste of Belgian culinary craftsmanship with its two main types of waffles: the rectangular Brussels waffle, often topped with various toppings, and the sweeter Liege waffle with crystallized sugar. The small bronze statue of Manneken Pis, depicting a little boy peeing into a fountain below, is an iconic part of Brussels' culture and is often dressed up for city events.
The Belgium waffle base is crispy and fresh. The toppings with Pistachio, Dark Chocolate, and Strawberry were mellowed together. It is a nice waffle shop!

Stumbled upon this small waffle spot in Brussels by chance. It’s a casual place with limited indoor seating, but there are benches and high tables outside where you can enjoy your food standing. The focus is on Liège waffles, freshly made to order with a wide range of toppings. While the flavor isn’t the richest or most traditional, it’s still tasty, and they’re generous with the toppings! They also serve gelato with a good variety of flavors. A nice little find for a quick and satisfying treat.

Visually appealing waffles but average / underwhelming flavor. You're probably here becuase you saw the storefront display and were wowed by the artful toppings - not because you read the reviews. That's how they get ya. In fairness, the display waffles did look like latte art. It wasn't bad, but for the price, I expected better. Service was slow and although there is some seating inside the restaurant, it feels very cramped. If you were wise enough to check the reivews before stepping in, I'd skip.

Ice cream is fine, can't say the best we tried but 4/5. The problem is a but hurry and rude stuff. When you order, you don't choose the taste to later realise (after you paid) that your choice is not available but it's not mentioned in the menu. Then lady pushes you to take another about which you have to think a bit - I'm talking about kids, imagine it's not fast...

The staff here tricked me into taking something more expensive and used the language barrier at play in order to get me to pay more. Those are some very scummy tactics they use. Service wasn't fast either, we waited a good 10 minutes for three waffles while other cutsomers got it after a minute. Tourists are very clearly treated worse. Obviously language barriers are a problem, but the instructions about what to do were unclear and the staff didn't seem to want to help. I could get better service at a McDonalds. The street itself is a large shopping one and it's pretty crowded and dirty. At least the food is fine, nothing too special (I've had better waffels in Brussels) but also not bad by any means. I had an overall bad experience though.

While Neuhaus chocolates are exported globally, visiting their original store in Brussels is an unparalleled experience.

The chocolate is very nice, a well known reputable brand. However their prices are quite high which makes it hard to justify the purchases.

bad service experience… there were customers asking for a box of chocolate around 500g and they didn’t even know what they wanted and were walking around the store asking about different chocolates and asking the attendant to pick this lasted about 15 minutes. After they finished packing one box, the customer asked for ANOTHER box of 500g. I understand it’s not fully the shop assistant’s fault for an unhinged customer. We had clearly already decided what we wanted as we were holding boxes, were at the checkout counter and spent some time talking about the chocolates we wanted to try. I feel like in situations like this they could have let us pay first or the second shopkeeper in the store could have assisted us, she was just moving things on the shelves acting busy. Ive been on the other side with a big order before and have been understanding when the shopkeeper asks if they can serve a customer first. Went across the road to Elisabeth instead. This was on the 6th of October.

Small shop, right next to Manneken Pis, a bit expensive, but the chocolate is nice. You can buy the chocolates individually, in pre-made boxes of assorted chocolates, or by creating a custom box, by picking the box size you want (different sizes, the biggest one having about 37 pieces, weighting 500g and costing 37€) and then selecting the desired chocolates). They also have macarons, in about 10-12 flavours, which you can also buy individually or in a box (smallest one has 6 pieces and costs 10€).

Two stars awarded for the TASTE of the waffles only. They bait you into getting a waffle for €2 but in reality each topping is about €2 extra. Two euros for 6 strawberries is a rip off. The waffles were nice, and they were the only thing that was nice. The staff were so rude and obnoxious. They talked to you like you were wasting their time and their attitude was just so poor. For such a high tourist area, workers should be setting a better example. You're better off going to another waffle place, especially the one a little further down the street where you can actually sit.

He replied me “either you eat it or throw it in the trash and you still have to pay for it” I waited for 20 Minutes and pay for 6euros! What I got were a burned waffle and a rude reply! You can’t because of many people waiting, you forget to take it out and using something that should be in the trash and serve it to the customer and not even feel guilty! Will you offer your child and ask them to eat a totally burned food? Not because I am nice to you you can cover thing in this way. I always come to buy juice everytime spend 6 euros or more.

I am going to update the review score once I’ll see some changes. It’s sad that hard working artisans are affected by negative reviews for their selling approach!!

(Translated by Google) Exceptional baguettes which concentrate the quality of the ingredients and the mastery of execution. The Tanneurs' baguette is out of the category compared to other artisans in the capital. Great discovery, and the value for money is one of the TOP 5 in Brussels. *Special mention for the quality of the welcome (Original) Baguettes d'exceptions qui concentrent la qualité des ingrédients et la maitrise d'exécution. La baguette des Tanneurs est hors catégorie par rapport aux autres artisans de la capitale. Belle découverte, et le rapport qualité prix fait parti du TOP 5 à Bruxelles. *Mention spéciale pour la qualité de l'accueil
