Great service, excellent food and lovely atmosphere. Took my girlfriend for dinner. We shared the beef stew which was more than plenty for two with huge chunks of meat. We also shared a Belgian waffle dessert which was simple and tasty. Really high quality food and a great night.

Nice venue. Draft and bottled selection fairly standard Belgium beer selection. Beer prices a little high (£7.50 for a bottle of St Bernardus Abt 12) but food excellent. We had the cheese fondue

Booked for 12 weeks ago but they were unprepared. No tables set up, no thought given to how we might all be seated and have a meal. This is a bar for a small group only.

Frites we're soggy and it would have nicer to have had the option of a single serve of modules frites and fondue instead of having to share. We were disappointed although the beer was lovely.

Bock is amazing we are always made to feel special and the atmosphere is relaxed and cool. The food is delicious and very reasonable and the portions are large, great to soak up the vast selection of Belgian beers. Well recommended to visit if you are a beer lover.

Great friendly place. Had a couple of the beer off the special's list which were great. Then we had cheese fondue for 2, amazing. Managed to squeeze in a couple of Belgian choc waffles too. A good experience. A bit of a noisy crowd in but not their fault.

The food was beautiful, friendly staff and great service. Had the Sunday roast fondue, and then beef was amazing. Also had the chocolate fondue, only complaint, I would have preferred more waffle. More than enough food for the 3 of us that went.

This place can get busy so booking is essential, especially at the weekend. The staff are really friendly and the bartender was really knowledgeable about beer and helped us try something different. We also had the fondue which was delicious :) can't wait to go back to try some more of their food!

Visited twice the same evening. For party of 8 we were given a table upstairs in the bunker type area, felt detached from the rest of the bar much preferred it downstairs where a couple of us returned later that evening. The atmosphere was much better even though it was late, will def visited again but will request not to be given the table tucked away upstairs.

First visit to this cafe with family, I loved ever minute of it, the rustic feel, the atmosphere and the staff were great, we had so much fun with one of our waiters. I loved the food, we had mussels and four of us shared it as a starter, it came with lots of bread and fries, which were delicious, two of us had the cheese fondue and there was plenty of food. Would have liked to try the sharing platter but will on our next visit. Will definitely go again.

2nd time here. Lovely place to relax with friends. Nice ambience, great choice of beers. Staff serving were abit miserable and service was slow. Food platters weren't quite as good as previous experience, seem to provide more bread to compensate for reduction in other bites. The meat platter should have had pork but didn't - no apology or substitution.

The selection of beers and the atmosphere is great however the service was terrible, it took almost an hour for our food to arrive and we were forever trying to catch the attention of a waiter as they only seemed to come round about every 45 minutes.

I am from Belgium and I really enjoyed it, beer menu is great! However, I ordered a sharing board (called Olandese or something like that) and each element was nice but together it didn't really work (camembert, chips and cornichons don't go very well together...) But my friends ordered the baguettes and were really happy with it. So, good experience overall and would definitely recommend it!

We had booked ahead to ensure we got a table as it isn't a massive venue. The tables are a little close together but that doesn't detract from the experience and the fact that it is table service means you don't need worry about getting to the bar. Very attentive staff who ensured all the tables were looked after. We had the sharing platters and they were really good as is the range of beers available. Will definitely be returning.
