Top 10 Lunch Stops, Brasseries, Bistros
-
1. Café ’t Volkshuis
A traditional café-pub, excellent value and especially good for lunch. It is also a popular venue for sing-along evenings.
-
2. Het Dagelijks Brood
Or “Le Pain Quotidien” in French. Part of an esteemed chain providing wholesome sandwiches on crusty bread, plus pâtisserie and other snacks.
-
3. Taverne De Verloren Hoek
A traditional, pleasant and welcoming tavern named after its location in the “Lost Corner” of eastern Bruges.
-
4. De Belegde Boterham
The name translates as “open sandwich”, which is exactly what they do – along with soups, salads and cakes.
-
5. Salade Folle
A deservedly popular lunch spot and tearoom serving light dishes, home-made cakes, pancakes and waffles. You need to get there early for lunch.
-
6. Frituur de Vier Winden
There’s been a frietkot (chip/French fries stand) on the Markt since 1896. This one does good crispy fries (with mayonnaise, of course), plus a range of accompaniments.
-
7. Bistro de Eetkamer
Elegant but unflashy, this very popular bistro passes the locals’ rigorous standards with its good-value food.
-
8. ’t Nieuw Museum
In this old family-run tavern, the meat is cooked on an open fire (evenings) in a 17th-century fireplace – a delightfully elemental experience.
-
9. Gran Kaffee de Passage
A wonderfully dingy, candle-lit interior provides an enchanting setting for good beer and solid, good-value Belgian dishes.
-
10. Het Andere Idee
A comfortable “pasta-bistro”, popular with locals and well-priced.
