Specialty Museums
The Hergé Museum, located an hour south of Brussels, is a modern building that showcases the works of cartoonist Georges Remi, known for creating the beloved character Tintin. The museum offers engaging audio tours and features an extensive display of models, pictures, and source materials used by the artist. Visitors can also admire the original triptych portrait of Hergé by Andy Warhol. The museum's gift shop is also a noteworthy attraction.
A fantastic way to spend a couple of hours in Belgium. This museum is located 40minutes away from Brussels by train but is well worth the visit. The interactive quiz that guests solve as they walk through the museum is an uniquely engaging strategy indeed. The props and storyboards as well as the audio guide make the world of Herge come alive. The museum gift shop is also lovely with some items priced decently so that no one leaves for home empty handed. A must see place when visiting Belgium.
Dr. B — Google review
First, the building itself is worth the visit: superb architectural creation that is both aesthetic and functional with lots of natural light. The content is arranged chronologically and is comprehensive. A fairly high degree of depth for the afficionado while also leaving the possibility to only skim and enjoy the experience. The electronic guided tour is helpful and entertaining. Any Tintin fan must make the trip to this museum if they are in the area. Easy short train ride from Brussels.
Frederic L — Google review
If you used to read Tintin as a child this museum will be a heartwarming experience, as the visitor has the opportunity to see the original sketches of the comic. This museum is dedicated to the art of Hergé who other than an amazing comic artist he had other talents as well, in Herge museum the visitor can also admire his lesser known works.
Michael D — Google review
For any true Tintin buff, this is the place to be. What an exceptional experience to go through in this museum, so well designed over 3 floors. Each corner one passed one is welcomed by so many of displays from the Tintin creator. It is a great honor to visit Tintin exhibition and I would not hesitate to come back for another adventure with Tintin and his friends. Highly recommended for young and old to go for a visit there while visiting Louvain

The Hergé museum salubrate the founder of Tintin it is super famous in Europe like Desney for USA. The impact of Tintin was to learning to read understand and suck into the detailed ankmations in the book as well as all face expressions. By the side the city is car free streets änd newly built. Perfect walk from railway station too.

Stunning design of the museum. Lots of information, interesting enough for children as well. I would not recommend it for very young children, they would get easily bored. Parking is a bother, but I had figured that out before coming so just park under the town square in the big garage. We got lucky and visited the museum on the first Sunday of the month which was free. The gift shop has some well priced items and some insanely priced items, bought something out of appreciation for the works of art that I had seen on display.
Davy H — Google review
If you are a Tin Tin lover as me, must go there. It is a really nice museum. Museum has a modern building. At the entrance, is an official shop which has a lot of interesting Tin Tin stuff. I learned a lot about history of Tin Tin and Herge biography. It is paradise of Tin Tin fans.
Mahyar H — Google review
Hours and hours of content for any Tintin fan. The “download with a QR-Code” audio guide is clunky and causes a bottleneck at the start of the game exhibits, but once you’re in there’s so much to see and read about Georges Remi, and how he developed the studio piece by piece over the years. Loved it, and it’s an interesting train-ride out of Brussels too.

The only good thing about this hostel was the breakfast. It was edible and came with the room, and though it wasn't much, ot was leagues ahead of every other aspact of the place. The room was hot and the beds were a little short. On top of that the matresses and pillows were made out of plastic. The walls are made out of raw concrete and made the room feel like a jail cell. As if that wasn't enough, the bathroom faucet was loose and there was mold growing on the floor and walls. That aside, the city only has one good thing about it, that being the hergé museum. I would recomend visiting that and then leaving the city immidiatley.

The position is great, the personell was very friendly and had no problem adjusting the stay since I made a mistake. But the room was just a no-go. It felt like a prison cell, it was dirty, the bathroom was not cleaned and the shower floods the bathroom. Only recommend if you don't plan to stay inside most of the time.

EXKi is a convenient spot for breakfast, lunch, or a mid-afternoon snack. It operates on a self-service basis where customers can easily pick what they desire and then line up to pay. The service is prompt and the establishment maintains cleanliness. Patrons have the choice to dine in or take their food to go.

Nice place to go for a breakfast, a lunch at noon or even to get some sweets at 4pm :-) It's a self-service, just grab what you want and then make the queue to pay it.

I asked for a standard O'taco with extra jalapeno-cheese nuggets. When I asked they said that it is inside the taco. It was a take away order so when I get home I saw that there were none inside my taco. Also the selected 2 sauces were missing (which is included), only came with the cheese sauce. On the other hand there were only a few customer in the restaurant, but still it took so long to serve and make the foods.

Despite of so many negative reviews I went there as the other otacos was closed and I must say my experience was really good. I ordered two M tacos one with spicy tender and poulet mariné and another with spicy tender and nuggets. Both were great better than the one in Brussels. Chesse sauce was just enough not dry at all and fries were properly cooked. Restaurant was clean and large sitting space. Order was served within 10 min maximum. Warm and nice. I am really surprised

Long queues, no ticketing system - you select your own number and someone just yells the number, even if you don't speak the language or if someone else picks the same number. Only 2 machines in the store. It's not very clean. Many menu options were out of stock. All in all, a disappointing experience.

A really bad experience happened there with the cashier working on Monday night with one of my friend. While the order was done the cashier came back to him 5 minutes later requesting a change in the ingredient because a lack of it. When asking her to repeat with what it can be replaced the cashier just started to behave in a degatory manner and was looking down at my friend. My friend asked her just to repeat without having this behaviour. From this comment she completely get mad and start to shout at him. He decided to be reimbursed as he didn't have time to assist at being insulted. She agreed he will be reimbursed and then she restarted with her meprising behaviour by shouting at him. In the end she decided the order will be done forcing him to take the order, she kept shouting at him. He just told her that he can't accept this kind of attitude as a customer. In the end he wanted to wait outside as the cashier kept yelling inside in the kitchen. While he came back to take his order the cook start to moralize him despite he wasn't there at first. The cashier then decided to come back and started again to shout at my friend. He just left telling them he can't talk more about it. Despite having left she kept yelling alone.. everyone was looking at her! This is terribly insulting for Tacos brand. Since the covid there were a lot of change in staff. My friend used to go there but never met this cashier, he will never go there again! This Tacos branch LLN should be avoid mostly at night. The staff is really getting rude with not knowing to have a minimum of social behaviour. If the staff is that tired Tacos should start to install the order display as in other fast food it will surely avoid to meet a tired cashier ready to shout at you on any single comment! At the end my friend received an order totally different in a very small size from what he ordered (size L). This is totally unacceptable and damaging for Tacos brand!

Absolutly horrendous, the meat was dry as if it had been left out for days in the open. I asked for extras in my tacos and didn't get any, the food wasn't good but the people were kind which is a shame really. Raise your standarts O'tacos, the Bruxelles branch is doing far better!!

I am not a big fan of fast food, but Burger King is an outstanding exception. The vegetarian burgers they offer are incredibly tasty! The service at this restaurant is top-notch, as they even accommodated a last-minute dine-in request before closing. The staff members are friendly and efficient. Their drinks are refreshing and the food itself is also quite good. Despite being a popular chain, it's usually not too crowded. I really appreciate the variety of beverage options available at this particular Burger King location.

So disappointed! My vegetarian main course was very expensive... And even though we're almost in summer, the choice of vegetables was basic. The base was a (very dry) wheat cake. The baby navels, carrots and mushrooms were just ok. But I felt that I was punished for being a vegetarian. I'll certainly never return there. Too bad as the place is otherwise really nice.

Despite an excellent Tournedos Rossini, three negative experiences in one evening. No more ice for cocktails at 20:30 on a Friday night, a cheese crust (I kid you not) on our cheese plate and closed kitchen at 2200 so no dessert. What we paid (more than160€) is definitely not a reflection of the value we received. Very very disappointed

Good place, and I particularly like their lounge near the fireplace. But two stars removedess: avoid the 'vin du patron': they say they measure what you drunk 'by the cm'. They first try to charge the full bottle - I can admit this was a mistake - but when you kinky make the remark, this still overcharge. I don't care about the €, but it isn't very serious.

Crepes are good, the place is really cozy and unique, but : it's way too expensive for what it is, even more than it doesn't include any salad in the already expensive price. Soft drinks being serve in glass straight with no bottle in side is a no go for a restaurant thought.

The food is very good and a nice place to visit with friends. There are so many varieties of crepes and local beers. Also you can get good varieties of icecreams Overall good place

Wonderful crêpes with a variety of choices in a nice atmosphere! We took "crêpe chocolat", "crêpe Confiseur" and "milkshake praliné" (milkshake a little expensive (€9,30) but crêpes are well worth the price).

Do not miss while visiting the campus. The architecture might have suprised back in the 1970s but today it offers a right space for eclectic masterpieces. A bit of everything, quite enjoyable. Sometimes lacking explanation or contextual explanation.

I had a fantastic evening at Théâtre Jean Vilar watching an incredible show about the renowned opera singer, Callas. The role of Callas was flawlessly portrayed by Anne Renouprez, a talented soprani. As I arrived, I had the opportunity to try Waterloo beer and interact with the friendly staff members Sylvie and Thomas. The theater itself is of medium size, offering comfortable seating and convenient parking nearby.

(Translated by Google) Big disappointment with the new room (cold and uncomfortable), and the reservation service which has no sense of customer service, despite the fact that I have been buying subscriptions for over 10 years. Fortunately for me, I still have the Spott where we are always very well received. (Original) Grosse déception de la nouvelle salle (froide et inconfortable), et du service réservation qui n'a aucun sens de la clientèle, malgré que j'achète des abonnements depuis plus de 10 ans.

(Translated by Google) A pleasant, good-sized theater with a friendly foyer (few staff, so hurry during intermission). Importantly, the theater's schedule is kept to a minimum. The only problem, outside the theater, is that the parking is terrible (it's difficult to find a spot, you have to queue to pay and queue to get out!). (Original) Un théâtre agréable, de bonne taille, avec un foyer sympathique (peu de personnel, donc se dépêcher à l'entracte). Point important, un bon respect des horaires.

The food tastes average and is unfortunately really not healthy. There is little to no vegetarian/vegan choice. But it's filling and cheap. The staff are not friendly. If you want to use the microwave to eat food you've brought with you, you'll be thrown out because you're only allowed to stay there if you pay €1.50. This is outrageous for a university canteen, as these are university rooms. UCLouvain should allow you to eat your own food in the dining hall, as they don't offer vegan healthy food you have to bring something from home and eat it outside the door. Not acceptable for a university. The toilet stinks like a cowshed and you can smell it all the way into the dining room.

(Translated by Google) BEST RESTAURANT IN LOUVAIN-LA-NEUVE ALL CATEGORIES COMBINED!! A huge pleasure to meet there with cokotters every day to taste succulent dishes galore, all at the completely ridiculous price of only €3.35 for students. We might regret that non-UCLouvain members have to pay €7.10 for their dish of the day, but this price remains quite reasonable when we see the quality of the culinary experiences offered. In short, a cult place in our pretty town of Louvain-la-Neuve and a place not to be missed:] (Original) MEILLEUR RESTAURANT DE LOUVAIN-LA-NEUVE TOUTES CATÉGORIES CONFONDUES!! Un énorme plaisir de s'y retrouver entre cokotteurs tous les jours pour y déguster des mets succulents à gogo, le tout au prix complètement dérisoire de seulement 3,35€ pour les étudiants. L'on pourrait regretter que les non-membres UCLouvain aient à payer leur plat du jour 7,10€, mais ce tarif reste tout à fait correct quand on voit la qualité des expériences culinaires proposées. En somme, un lieu culte de notre jolie ville de Louvain-la-Neuve et un endroit à ne surtout pas rater :]
Nidoran4886 — Google review
(Translated by Google) Good meals even if not always very presentable and at ultra affordable prices (€3.35 for the dish of the day or vegetarian). Lots of interior space for dining, just lacking a little natural light. Can quickly get noisy with the number of students but it is possible to avoid the gunfire which starts at 12:45 p.m. by coming earlier or later. The line can sometimes be long depending on the day (the menus are revealed for the week and some attract more than others) and depending on the time. In any case, you eat well and balanced for cheap. (Original) Des repas bons même si pas toujours très présentables et à des prix ultra abordables (3,35€ pour le plat du jour ou végé). Beaucoup d'espace intérieur pour manger, il manque juste un peu de luminosité naturelle. Peut très vite être bruyant avec la quantité d'étudiants mais il est possible d'éviter le coup de feu qui commence à 12h45 en venant plus tôt ou plus tard. La file peut parfois être longue selon les jours (les menus sont dévoilés pour la semaine et certains attirent plus que d'autres) et selon les heures. En tout cas, on y mange bien et équilibré pour pas cher.

Mamma Mia LLN is a delightful culinary gem that promises an unforgettable dining experience. With a menu that frequently changes, guests can indulge in fresh and delicious homemade pizzas and pasta, complemented by their exceptional limoncello. The warm ambiance of the restaurant creates a cozy atmosphere, especially on their lovely terrace when the weather permits. Patrons rave about the Roman-style pizza featuring a perfectly thin crust made from high-quality ingredients.
Warm and cozy place. Outstanding terrace when the weather allows it. Great owner. The "large" pizza is probably not intended to be eaten by a single individual :)
Youri A — Google review
We ordered a large pizza. After 30 min the guy told us to change our order, when we asked why he said he was out of goat cheese for the pizza. When we (kindly, I insist) let him know that 30 min was a long time to notice he was out of ingredient he started yelling and being agressive. He said we didn't know anything about pizza making and didn't even apologize. We had to ask for the bill and leave (we though there would be a commercial gesture but no we had to pay for our drinks). In summary, this place could be a great place if the owner could put his energy in good use instead of lacking respect towards his customers and understand the basics of customer management.

While it may not be a fine dining establishment, the café offers a delightful selection of food that keeps patrons coming back.

The food is great, and the staff is kind and, usually, attentive. Yet, the acoustics and the amount of people they put inside there make it (almost always) very noisy. I avoided going there sometimes just because of the noise I anticipated.
F. — Google review
The food is of fine quality, although for the price, there isn't a single item on Les Halles' menu that you can't find better and cheaper somewhere else in LLN. Les Halles' advantage comes from how varied its selection is, allowing for a large group of people to all come here for a gathering and all find something that they fancy. However, as stated, the result is food that is slightly lower quality for a price that is slightly too expensive. The atmosphere of Les Halles is really what makes it shine, with closed indoors, covered outdoors, and fully open outdoors seating options, Les Halles remains accessible in any weather, at all times of the year. All of the factors mentioned so far make Les Halles an ideal location for organising a gathering with a large group of people, whose interests may be varied and unknown. The worst part of Les Halles is without a doubt the service, as every time I've been here, at least one person on the table had an issue with their order. Whether that be failing to remove requested ingredients from a meal, or simply bringing the wrong dish. This is no doubt due to the busy nature of Les Halles and the fact that its employees are almost exclusively students (which have less work experience and thus will naturally be more prone to such oversights). If the aforementioned service issues won't bother you and you're looking for a place to gather a group of friends without individually checking each one's food preferences, Les Halles is a good choice. For any other scenario, you should be spending your food money somewhere else in LLN.

Fish was falling apart from being overcooked and swimming in insanely much oil. For 28€ for this dish I at least expect a freshly cooked meal and not one that have seemed to have spent an hour under a heat lamp… The food here keeps disappointing sadly.

I stayed at Martin's for 5 days and decided try b'comme on my last day and I'd say it was ended on a high note. I left it to my waiter to recommend the dishes and wine for every meal and hence I went for chefs choice 3 course. Loved and thoroughly enjoyed every bit of it. It's hard to get a seat without a reservation during crowded hours. It's costlier than many nearby restaurants. The service was slow and had to wait a lot for my main course. You won't get wine bottles here instead glasses are served and therefore it adds to the cost.

We stayed in the Martin's hotel and we had a Christmas dinner there. Well I think that the chef likes a speculoos biscuits a lot, there were in every dish of our 4 courses menu. I also asked what's the name of the vegetable in my plate and the chef said - "I think it's..." 2 stars only for the kind waiters.

Very good and refined food, prices are not cheap but it is expected in this kind of place

We go there quite often and we always get the menu. The service is great, very attentive and really friendly. The food is always delicious and it’s locally sourced which is a huge plus since the flavour is great. We love the bread that they bon to the table, it’s always nice and warm. If you want to try Belgian food classics. Great value for your money

Quality food and environment. But one of the waitresses was very unkind. We asked to go back inside to her collegue, and she told her “well stop this or they’ll all want to go inside” like what’s the matter? That’s definitely not something you say in front of clients. She even rolled her eyes when another client asked for a beer. That’s disturbing for a 100€ dinner.

Délices is truly a hidden treasure that every food lover should discover! Their durum poulet is an absolute delight, featuring succulent chicken enveloped in the softest flatbread imaginable. Each bite feels like a celebration of flavors, and the warm hospitality from the owner makes you feel right at home—like catching up with an old friend who just happens to be a master of durums.
Good food at a reasonable price. Tried the durums and kebabs here and they are both fine. Quick takeaway possible too.

OMG this place is a gem! The durum poulet is insanely good—like, juicy chicken wrapped in the warmest, soft flatbread ever? YES PLEASE. Every bite was a party in my mouth. And the owner? Literally the nicest and funniest person ever. I felt so welcome, like I was visiting an old friend who just happens to be a durum master. I seriously can't believe I only found out about this place now?? What have I been doing with my life?! If I had known earlier, I would've been here every week, no joke. The portions are generous, the vibes are immaculate, and the price? Chef’s kiss. Total win. Already planning my next visit—def bringing friends and trying everything on the menu. If you haven’t been here yet, run, don’t walk! Big love to the amazing owner for making food that’s full of flavor and heart.

Great food at a great price, but I would never get anything other than takeaway, as sitting here either means you are in an enclosed area with greasy air, or sitting outside on uncomfortable chairs on the street. I come here regularly to order takeaway and the price-to-food ratio is one of the best in central Louvain-La-Neuve.

Ismail is a kind man as the owner of the restaurant I enjoy being around here having good fresh food here thay does not break the bank! I also love they way his wife treat guest kindly regardless of their race. However I found that men as waiters under this restaurant treat others patiently but the female staff is a disappointment totally and disrespectful and are not educated and they can not speak English because they do not or can not care about anyone. I hope the girls who found job in this restaurant could have a much more manners and respect towards their customers as well as the male waitress.

This is place is just great. Good food, good prices. The only downide is that your hair/clothes might smell like food, so prefer to take an outside table.

Patapouf is a delightful culinary gem that promises an exceptional dining experience, whether you choose to dine in or take out. The menu features a range of mouthwatering options, including the fresh Tomate-Mozzarella starter with creamy mozzarella di bufala and fragrant basil. Their Pizza Verde stands out for its rich flavors and perfect baking, while the authentic tiramisu offers a light and creamy finish to your meal.
The best pizza in the area of Louvain-la-Neuve! Or maybe in the whole Belgium. Quality of pizza preparation, all the ingredients, pasta, super friendly service. You should also order wine here! It’s very well selected. Pay attention - table should be booked in advance. Possible to order take away. Highly recommend!

They have delicious pizza not as good as ones in Italy ofc, but almost…it is quite some walk from the city center. Small space but clean. They are also open only by 18:00h-22:00h. Very good value for money

Whether for takeout or dining in, the quality is always excellent. I enjoyed the Tomate-Mozzarella starter with fresh mozzarella di bufala, olive oil, and basil, simple and delicious. The Pizza Verde was packed with flavor and perfectly baked, and the authentic tiramisu was light and creamy. Friendly staff and a cozy atmosphere! It’s popular, so I suggest booking a table in advance to guarantee your spot

Patapouf was the best pizza in Louvain-la-Neuve until quite recently, however that was not thanks to the greatness of Patapouf but simply due to the lack of alternatives (you would think a student city like LLN would have more pizza places...) The worst part of Patapouf have always been the unforgiving opening times, limited to a whopping 3 hours every day, except Sundays and Mondays. Since the opening of Donos Pizza, which not only sports significantly more generous opening hours, but also better prices, I have had no reason to ever go back to Patapouf. This place isn't bad per se, it's just really inconvenient and is completely outdone by Donos in virtually every aspect.

I visited here while I was on a business trip. The pizza was really delicious. I had to go back a second time before heading back to the US. Thank you guys for speaking English and helping me with my orders! Very nice staff!

Everything is good but prices are really expensive. One margaritha shouldnt be 12.5 eur, a glass of cola shouldnt be 3.5 eur.

Wonderful pizza, amazing staff, great atmosphere. It’s not a fluke that this place has so many good reviews. Highly recommend it

I've grabbed take out twice. Friendly and professional staff. Incredibly good carbonara. Fresh pasta and almost feel it should cost more for the quality. Highly recommend. Worth finding your way to it.
