A sombre place - 'a First World War memorial in Ypres, Belgium, dedicated to the missing British and Commonwealth soldiers who have no known grave in the Ypres Salient, with their names engraved on the walls of the memorial.' - I felt choked up approaching this place remembering my relatives that served here including my grandfather wounded at Passchendaele. We also saw groups of school kids, including some Indian students, and their teacher and a male and female student carried a wreath to lay remembering Indians who served as part of the British Empire.

I was here twice in one day, on a bus tour from brussels. Once around lunch, and then once at 7pm to stay for the 8pm last post ceremony. -Its a large "Gate" building, the functions as a road as well except at 8pm, when police close the road for the last post ceremony. The sidewalk is also roped off, you cannot cross this gate into or out of city between 7:50pm-8:20pm, by foot or car. -You can walk up the steps in the middle to the upper parts on either side, its more walls of names. -You can participate in the last post Ceremony if you have a poppy wreath similar to theirs. You can bring from home, or Buy a wreath at the "Info shop" across the road from the gate, inside the city. The man running the ceremony said they never turn away someone that wants to participate. -The last post ceremony gets busy, we arrived 1 hour before to be sure we got front row, and we did, but it does get busy. The ceremony itself is about 10min long, with a short trumpet call, then a short speech, then people walk up and put wreaths, and then trumpets again, and its over. The guide said sometimes there is more people putting wreaths, sometimes there is more speeches, sometimes more music performances, so it could take longer sometimes. Overall it was a nice memorial to the fallen soldiers

This is a must go to see, and listen to the sound of last post played by buglers of the fire service. A sombre moment, knowing that all the names carved out on the walls, were of men whose bodies were never found, and remain scattered under Flanders fields. Heartbreakingly sad to think of.

Have visited a few times before. Last time (2024) it was closed for restoration, all done now and looking great. There’s an office on site where they will help you locate the name of a lost family member. (Don’t try to read all the names or you’ll never find the one you want). If your schedule allows, stay for the Last Post ceremony, done every day. Right in the town centre of Ypres, a beautiful place to visit.

This is a must visit site in Ypres, especially at 8pm every day when the last post is played. It is remarkable that this service happens every day of the year more than 100 years after WW1, but then it remains as poignant and relevant today as ever (sadly). We attended on two consecutive nights, one night with the Honourable Artillery Company Regimental Band playing (incredible) the next with a female choral choir. Both were very moving. I estimated about 500 people attended both nights. The four or five horn players of the last post were clearly very experienced. The gate itself is a mini-museum, and it is very impactful to see the thousands of names of lost soldiers from so many countries. Really, everyone should visit this site.

The gate is a large memorial to the British Empire and Dominions troops that were killed in the Great War. It was built in the 1920s and has the names of 54,000 allied servicemen who lost their lives but have no known grave, inscribed on panels inside the building. It is sited on the road that the troops used to march along to reach the nearby Ypres salient, scene of fighting for pretty much the entire war. It is also where the famous Last Post ceremony takes place. We read the CWGC information boards and saw the information on the hill next to the gate and then we walked through the galleries with the names of the fallen before joining the crowds to listen to the ceremony. I was surprised at how busy it was and the ceremony itself lasted about 15 minutes but the colonnade was full 45 minutes before it started. It was a lovely ceremony with the Last Post and then two songs sung by St Anthony's Catholic Girl School from Market Weighton.

A must see experience. Lots of emotions. Make up your own mind as to a celebration of war or a monument against it! A waste of human life for a just cause or maybe a monument against war. A lesson from history about the waste of war and its leaders who send men to there death! Looking at the world at the moment, have we learned? But to those who lost their lives a very moving monument.

Nice tribute...KOSB recognised for their participation in local actions

A monument to Scottish war-dead. It’s located near a busy road, but it’s informative.

This memorial is the only one on the former Western Front dedicated to all Scots and all those of Scottish descent who fought in France and Flanders during the Great War.

Beautiful British WW1 memorial honouring Scottish and South African troops.

Really well maintained. New metal benches and Commonwealth flags are in good condition.

The only monument to the Scottish soldiers who fought in the Flanders Theatre

Moving. Interesting.

Excellent place to learn about WW1; displays provide a good glimpse of what life in the trenches must have been. Kudos for the relatively simple and therefor easy introduction into WW1 material. Engaging material even for younger audiences. Passionate yet very professional exhibit material. A respectful addition to your visit of the war cemetery just opposite of the museum.

Went here for lunch on tour and museum ticket was included. Nice place and museum was a bonus. Video was great and had huge range of figures, artifacts and pictures. I didn't got to the bigger official museum so nothing to compare it with but felt worth a visit. As was included in tour I didn't pay extra, for it so unsure on value proposition. I was impressed and would recommend.

We stopped here for a bite to eat and to look at the impressive private collection of ww1 weapons and equipment. The food was very good and service as well. The museum has a lot of unique pieces so if you visiting all the battlefields you must stop here as well...it is very well maintained and you can see the love and attention put in everything.

Came here the other day was absolutely fantastic and fabulous. Had the best time and it was super educational - learnt so much. The best part was the reconstructed trenches and the picture boxes you could view. Definitely recommend for war history lovers. Staff were incredibly kind and helpful throughout the experience. And the free drink was very nice - lovely Fanta! Top notch definitely recommend

Great museum, not very big but very interesting. Multilingual too. Staff are really nice and was reasonably priced

An excellent museum and cafe, with a beautiful WW1 Cemetery opposite. Highly recommended.

came on a history trip with school to belgium and visited this amazing war museum! the owner was very welcoming and talked about how this museum started and talked about the meaning about it, and seemed passionate! i recommend this museum to you if you want to see what the war was really like and we learned and looked at one of the trenches as well.

Beautiful laid out forest remembering the soldiers that fought in WWI. You either walk on the laid out hardened path or the more adventurous wrinkly paths through the forest. The area around the forest is also gorgeous with hills and fields you can wander through.

A lovely walk in the woods with a visit to the bunker and the cemetery. Not all too much to see but some interesting history and peaceful area to walk.

Very poignant memorial at Polygon wood and the associated ANZAC monument. Built on a huge Butte at the end of an old rifle range, the site was used as a hospital and first aid station during world war 1. A walk through the woods reveals multiple German bunkers and reinforcements and gives an insight into the challenge the allied troops faced. Polygon wood cemetery to the side also well worth a visit. Ample off road parking available at the attached car park.

History was made here in 1917 when Australian troops at great costs captured the forest during the third battle of Ypres also known as the battle of Passchendaele. Several german bunkers can be found in the forest which is a great place for a walk.

So much history very peaceful here

The sound off silence

This was overwhelming - and it is just from one area in a much larger conflict. This is worth a visit for everyone. To gain perspective and to reflect on the cost of war. It’s a topic that is too often discussed online with careless hyperbole and an absence of considered nuance. Conflict may be an unavoidable part of being human, but war - as the most extreme expression of that impulse - should never be a path we choose willingly or lightly. The cost is too high.

It was a very emotional and meaningful visit to be able to honour fallen heroes, our Canadian soldiers who defended universal freedom from the tyrannical forces that caused WW1.

The largest of the Commonwealth war cemeteries, there's a quiet in the air here that marks the respect for the lives lost during the war. The gardens are beautiful and colourful and extremely well maintained. Walking through the rows of graves here and reading the names on the wall of the soldiers whose grave locations are unknown, is quite moving.

Nice monument acknowledging the contribution of the Canadian soldiers during WW1 in Passchendaele

For any Canadian wanting to visit European war memorials this is one that truly can give you and idea of where brave Canadians helped take back a part of the free world. This place to get to can stake you on several small roads so your GPS isn't wrong it just takes you in a round about way to finally get to the monument.

Apparently the first time gas was used in a major conflict. Interesting

Absolutely amazing and solemn visiting Passchendaele in person. We were able to pick up shrapnel right from the field. A truly amazing monument to the men who sacrificed everything.

What a find, just beautiful place. You can have coffee or a full meal. We (group of 4) enjoyed the Vol u vent curry. Delicious and the homemade chips, mayonnaise and salad relish. Very friendly and relaxed atmosphere... Nothing too much trouble at all. Visit as you won't be disappointed. Thank you.

Stopped here on the way to Black Watch Corner from Passchendaele with my mate (on motorcycles). Had a fantastic Spaghetti Bolognese and coffee. The owners made us very welcome and were delightful. Recommended!

Lovely lunch in a lovely place. We had fish gratin and steak with mushroom/pepper sauce- delicious. Just past the brothers in arms memorial.

Lovely atmosphere, Australian music, choices in how dark the hot chocolate was. Very nice selection of afternoon tea options. Friendly staff. Would highly recommend.

Delicious food, super friendly service, and a beautiful atmosphere! Everything is impeccable. The restaurant is beautiful, cozy decor ❤️

Amazing experience. Calm and cosy location. Food was delicious. And just super friendly service.

Hidden gem with fabulous hosts, great terrace and honest kitchen with great taste!

No more drinks in the afternoon. Pitty, could have served 6 - 9 drinks and 3 meals later on

Ok

Lovely place. Great steaks, both quality and quantity. However, fries were badly cooked (old fat? Cooked too long?). Atmosphere was nice, lovely interior. But heating was turned up to eleven. Serving staff was very nice and friendly!

Very clean but very small room. We were in room 3 which is an attic room low ceiling. So you can only stand up in the centre of the room especially if your tall. You can't sit up in bed for the shape. Entry into the room is by a very narrow spiral stairs so if you have big luggage bags good luck. It's in a good position for the centre but on a busy road.

I’d like to write a review, but on the few occasions we went, it was closed. Even though it said open on Google maps. Given up now.

A fantastic meal. The staff were incredibly attentive. Would definitely book again.

Amazing b&b friendly staff food is first class

Wonderful accommodation. Clean. Modern . Quite.

Love the steak & atmosphere

I've been here twice in the last 2 years and it doesnt disappoint. Amazing food, service, and atmosphere. Make sure to get dessert!

Generally a bit hit and miss. The service was mixed, the younger waiter was attentive and enthusiastic, the older guy seemed like someone had forced him to be st work. Correct but going through the motions. Great, fresh bread and good quality butter. Shrimp croquettes were good, not outstanding, and the presentation was unimaginative and bordering on unattractive. Witte pens was nicely flavoured but was pulled through by the shallots that accompanied it. The lobster was fine, again, the most interesting aspect was the sauce. The steak was of good quality and cooked well. The apple crumble was slightly underwhelming. Overall everything was 'correct' enough, as would be expected at a restaurant in this price category, but for me there was a certain lack of flair, or imagination, or real passion. The exceptions were the smoked Holstein, which was fantastic (again, the accompanying condiments were great), and a very nice ginger and passion fruit cocktail. If I were in the area again I would try another place rather than return, but it wasn't a bad experience.

Just dined there this evening as part of a large group. Delicious food, beautifully presented. Lovely waiting staff . Would return if in area.

Stopped here for lunch and had the special menu composed of 3 courses plus an amuse bouche from the chef. Amazing food. And we have eaten in some of the best restaurants in France and Italy.

Always a pleasure to go back

Pearl of a restaurant. It was a busy night but it didn't feel that way, although we did get the main course a bit late. Super friendly staff and delicious food!

A very good restaurant middle to high price! Cosy sitting, good amount of food on the plate, professional service.

Well worth the visit, especially, in my opinion, those with kids as they will absolutely love the immersive (recreated) dug out and trenches. An impressive making and simulation of what a trench would look or feel like. The museum is packed with information, mostly relating to the battle of Passchendale itself but also to the wider western front. The Audi guides are a great tool to have to guide you throughout and the museum itself sits in a wider memorial park area which is just beautiful. There is more parking a little further up the road if the main car park is full. Plenty of spaces to have a picnic in the surrounding parks. The museum itself probably hosts the friendliest and helpful staff you could ever encounter.

What a wonderful museum dedicated to the soldiers of WW1. The audio guide has all the information about each room and bunkers you visit. For me the most moving insight was the interactive cinema which gave an insight into the hard, difficult conditions the soldier's fought in. The underground tunnels and trenches were also an interesting eye opener into the fighting in WW1. Allow at least a couple of hours to really appreciate the whole museum

An essential visit for anyone interested in not only the military side of the 1917 battle but also the impact on the civilians. For me, this was a deeply personal and emotional visit as my Great Grandfather served the 1917 Battle and kept a diary of his experiences of being a British Gunner in the Royal Garrison Artillery. Amazingly the diary survived and therefore I visited as part of my research into his experiences and thanks to this museum I learned so much more. The trenches experience was really interesting and there is an excellent audio guide that takes you through the whole museum. We didn't buy tickets in advance but had no wait to enter. There is a shop and cafe nearby.

What a beautiful museum,ao much history of what happened at Passendale. You get to experience the underground living of the troops and has a wide selection of artifacts from the war. Some things putting things into perspective. You can also just spend time in their park which is also clean and scenic...just avoid the tour groups of children...most of them still have alot of energy from the long bus rides 😅

Cool museum, especially the recreation of the dug-outs and trenches are noteworthy. Also I suggest taking a few minutes for the immersive experience on the battle of Passendale.

Nice museum. My clients were very satisfied.

Excellent museum set in beautiful grounds. Audio guides were very informative.

(Translated by Google) A very interesting memorial site for fallen soldiers. Interesting organization, let's hope we don't have to repeat such a lesson again, both in Europe and in the world.

The scale of this cemetery is staggering - it isn't just the number of graves but how many are unknown soldiers. I visited for several reasons. First is that my Great Grandfather fought in the 3rd Battle of Ypres and not only did he miraculously survived but so did the diary he kept of his experiences. I know that some of his comrades died and possibly buried here/named on the memorial wall so I wanted to pay my respects. There is also a memorial to the Sherwood Foresters, which several of my family members were part of so wanted to view this too. Finally my Great Uncle Charles, who was a Sherwood Forester, was killed in action locally but has no known grave. My research points to this being one of the two possible last resting places for him. It would take hours to view each grave, and we had limited time here, but I did spot a grave of an unknown Sherwood Forester and I would like to think that perhaps this is Charles and he guided me here. As with all Commonwealth War Cemeteries, this is beautifully maintained and is a fitting memorial to all those laid to rest here. There is a visitors centre along with free parking. Take tissues as you will have tears in your eyes. Free to visit.

This is the largest British Commonwealth military cemetery in the world with 12,000 marked graves and a further 35,000 names on the memorial plaques, where the bodies of the missing could not be found. Tyne Cot is the name of the German blockhouse, painted to look like a cottage, that was part of a defensive line responsible for so many deaths. It is now the base of the Remembrance Cross. The graves are very well tended by the CWGC and there were lots of visitors including two coach trips of schoolkids. We probably spent an hour in the Visitors Centre and Cemetery and also looking at the terrain that was being fought across and it was a very sobering experience. Luckily, as we left, there was a spaniel that was the happiest dog in the world so that injected some much needed positivity into the morning.

Tyne Cot Cemetary is the largest resting place for British and Commonwealth troops who lost their lives in WW1, especially those who fought in Passchendaele, the 3rd battle of Ypres. Its name derives from the Northumberland Fusiliers who thought the many German pill boxes looked like Tyneside workman cottages and was abbreviated to Tyne cots. My visit on 17th September 2025 was particularly poignant for me as it was on the occasion of my late father's birthday who was born in 1918 and his father, my grand-père Charles Villaret, was with the French First Army that supported the British offensive in 1917 at Passchendaele - he looked after the horses and obviously survived whereas many of his comrades and horses didn't. The cemetery, like others in Belgium, is taken great care of by the War Graves Commission and it's a special place to remember and pay tribute to the sacrifices made by British and AZTEC troops. However, it's alot to take in and probably requires more than one visit. It was busy when I went with a number of guided tours taking place.

A remarkable cemetery of those who sacrificed their lives. Beautifully maintained by the CWWGC. Have visited several times over the years. The calling of names of those who lost their lives on the route to the very small exhibition is quite profound. The exhibition has changed over the years but worth a look. Good parking. Toilets are 0.50€.

What a place. So peaceful, very well kept. You can't believe when looking out that it was the location of such devastation and loss.

First visit to Tyne Cot. Slightly confusing how to get in from the Visitors Centre. We did walk to this first and the display and information boards were very good. However there were no signs to say how to get into the cemetery from the Visitors Centre. The front entrance is directly opposite the car park. It’s a small gate which leads out onto the main portico of the cemetery. Note the cemetery shuts at 6pm. Once inside the sight of so many graves and names on the walls is over bearing. The enormous loss of life is so disturbing. In what was a war where life was given over for military tactic. In a place we’re not much land was taken and in some places 95 lives lost per 3 acre leaves you to question why? So much destruction in a few short years and all for land and power. The Commonwealth war graves keep the cemetery in excellent condition and the constant roll of names over the tannoy is keeping the memory of those fallen alive. Somewhere everyone should visit.

Beautifully kept cemetery. A thoughtful place to remember those who fought gallantly for peace.

We had come to visit the Passendale museum and after a very good tour decided to have a little to eat before cycling back. This is a little cafe that serves hot food and drinks. There is plenty of seating outside and seating inside. The food was good but we only have a few small dishes as snacks and service was ok.

Superb location and the food is unexpectedly good! The attention to details has been put into the food. I ordered a koklikoo tagliatelle, i thought it would be just a simple dish--as it doesnt cost a lot. I have a party in my plate! They are sure generous with their ingredients. My boyfriend ordered a steak. Sauce is super good and balanced. Steak cooked to great result. Fries are crunchy finger style but awesome. The level of presentation is on par with restaurants--not really bristo level! Lots of little compliments things also. And last positive point: toilets r spiking clean. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

The food , the ambience , the view , the service - nothing could get any better . It is a must visit when in Zonnebeke. Been there multiple times and tried different dishes always , never have been disappointed.

Cute little place… unfortunately, after being told that we could we could pick a table and that a server would be by shortly, we were ignored for 15 minutes. We left.

Excellent food. Unfortunately, the waiter with the beard was appalling. He took drinks order, but wandered off before we had a chance to order food. After some time, we tried to attract his attention and he said '1 minute', which became 10. Three times we were told he would come to take payment. In the end, I had to go to the counter to pay. He was more interested in playing with his phone and chatting to the girls, rather than attending to customers

Chef needs to learn how to serve shrimp. Puts 1 shrimp and doesn’t even bother to clean them. Disgusting. Rest of the food was OK.

Very good location with delicious food and nice ambience. Friendly service personnel, which really takes care of their guests.

Lovely, historic bar. Nice decor. Dog friendly too which is a bonus.

Consumed beer outside. A rather noisy place on a roundabout but lots of seating and with the sun out was a good place to stop.

It was very welcoming even though I didn't speak a lick of the language.

Lovely little cafe bar. Owner very helpful. Simple, bar food (toasted sandwiches, burgers, chips with sauces etc) but very well done. Good beer too. And reasonably priced compared to other places in this part of the world: 40€ for a family of 4... Not bad!

Delicious food and generous portions.

Excellent cafe/bisro. Great for jist a drink or meal aswell. Especially if you're into burgers and frites! 😋

Brilliant food and service with a smile. We'll be back.

Highly recommend the tasting of local beers and corresponding cheeses! Great storytelling by Kris! You'll fall in love with the local beverages and the tales tha accompany them!

A great cafe, the cheese platter is definitely recommended. Their beers are pretty good too.

We went in for a quick lunch - so I suspect that our experience was not what it might have been if we had selected something on the menu that wasn't chosen for speed. We all had CrocMonsieur as we thought "ahhhh .... toasted cheese". Well priced and you got HEAPS .... but we think it was pre-toasted. The bread was brittle and SO dry - which was a shame - as the cheese and ham inside were of a good quality. From a service point of view - the waiter was very helpful - explaining the various beers and taking his time to help us even though the place was busy. Good display of info re the NZ troops who fought near Zonnebeke in the Battle of the Somme. A bit incongruous - but really very interesting.

Oh my word what an amazing place. Fantastic service, delicious food, the cheese board is scrumptious, and try the local made beer. A great find!

Nice restaurant, ideal for family lunches. Has a small museum linked to the cheese factory, which can be nice if you find this topic interesting.

Fantastic experience! Very interesting and informative tour! We also tried the different cheeses!

Nice museum, huge selection of cheeses and a great beer which you can't buy anywhere else.
