Jazz, blues, soul, six beers on draught and about another 70 bottled. Only slightly out of the way, mostly locals (who are very friendly!), and a very nice bloke who runs the bar. One of the best bars in Brugge. (Kusanagi89, 02-04-2012) 4

Quite simply the best bar I've ever been to. A selection of around 300 beers, with the specials and reserves changing every so often; guest beer on draught along with the mainstay Brugse Zot. The lady who runs it, Daisy, is simply brilliant, as are all her staff. A range of snacks that are simple and tasty. The atmosphere is loud and a little cramped but it just seems to add to its charm. In the five times I've been to Bruges, I have wasted entire days in here. It has a sort of intangible comfort that makes it a little dangerous; go in with a few friends part way through the day for a 'cheeky Zot' and it quickly turns in to 'stay and work slowly through some new beers'; or just taking a book and sampling a few of the reservas for a relaxing evening. Cannot recommend this place highly enough! (Kusanagi89, 02-04-2012) 5

A very small, very traditional restaurant run by a couple, largely frequented by locals. The cuisine is traditional Flemish cuisine so expect a range of baked fish, waterzooi and stews. The produce used is very fresh, and the cooking excellent - with a superb range of beers and wines to boot. The restaurant only has 7 tables so booking is essential. The atmosphere, as you would expect, is very homely. The patrons are very polite and service is prompt. Would recommend very highly as a place to escape the tourists and enjoy what has been the best meal I have had in Brugge in the five times I've visited. Expect 40€ per head for a three course meal with wine/beer, which is about average in Brugge. (Kusanagi89, 02-04-2012) 5

A few years ago, this restaurant was a gem. However it has deteriorated rapidly in the past few years into a poor eatery with rude staff and poor, expensive food. Generally a tourist trap. Best avoided for now - hopefully they will get their act together if people stay away. (Kusanagi89, 02-04-2012) 2

This restaurant is quite simply a joke. Having ordered the Turkey hot stone (cook yourself at table) we thought it would be a fun choice. The stone didn't cook very quickly so our chips got cold, we complained. To compensate the waiter gave us another portion of chips and an extra hot stone. Thanks... But oh no, not all is well. We finished our meal and got the bill €93.50 - for what I hear you cry?! 1 x orange juice €10 exactly 1 x coke €6 exactly The nice waiter charged us for the extra chips.. And it was €22 each for our main 4 x thin turkey strips and some manky chips, plus 1 soup and 2 croquettes. . Oh and read the menu carefully because for an extra piece of cutlery, say for sharing, that's €3 - correct you have to pay. If you go here and only take from this review one thing remember it is €10 for an orange juice. I will never ever forget it!! (Kane1234, 05-03-2012) 1

A definite must do on any visit to Bruges. Our tour guide was wonderful, as well as the customary 'how beer is made' portion of any brewery tour, she was incredibly insightful and well informed about the history of the DeHalve Mann brewery and the family that run it, sharing with the group many interesting facts and snippets of information that made the experience that much more unique and personable. A very funny and interesting lady who is clearly very passionate about the company she works for and the beer they make, but also about the town of Bruges itself, regaling us with stories of the towns architecture and which of the plentiful chocolate shops were worth parting with your money in. Having visited a few breweries across Europe I was incredibly impressed by how inexpensive it is, a mere 6.50Euros for a guided tour, sky line view of the town and complimentary glass of their blonde zot in their bar at the end. A steal for an insightful and humorous tour of an uncommercialised, delightful brewery. Be warned the steps are steep, the ceilings low and under no circumstance should you attempt to trade your beer token for a soft drink. (CharlotteO, 28-02-2012) 5

This is a reasonable hotel in quite an expensive town. Right above the ugly train station area, it is only 15 minutes walk from altogether more pleasant views. Unusually for Brugge, the staff are actually quite friendly..perhaps too so; I was given a detailed account of various attractive bike rides in and around the area, even though I didn't ask and had no intention of substituting my feet with wheels. The shower cubicle is in the bedroom..and it is see through so it is preferable that you be already intimately familiar with your roommate, to avoid embarrassment. The rooms are very nice. Compact and modern. (Happy Moose Drinker, 09-02-2012) 4
