Journey City GuidesNovember 13, 2017A spacious family-friendly café with a vintage style and American-influenced cuisine. A relaxed place for a lazy day
Mateusz BorkowskiJuly 9, 2017That was great! One of the best breakfast in my life. The crew is so nice and friendly. And the design of course is absolutely stunning. Such a lovely place to hangout with friends for some coffee!
Paulien NAugust 13, 2017Wow. Refreshing home made red ice tea with a bit of cinnamon. Croque chèvre w pesto, honey, rucola was sooo good and big portion. Fresh fruit salad (nectarine, apple, melon,...) for only €4,5! 👏🏼
Lars GinnerupMay 6, 2023New updated menu - better than the old one. Really enjoyed the Italian version of a shakshuka with tomato sauce, beans, eggs and burrata. Place still very popular - be ready to wait a little for table
Elizabeth SkewesJune 8, 2019My party tried different dishes and we all agreed everything was tasty. Plenty of options to chose from. The venue is very spacious so even when they are busy it does’t feel crowded. Recommended!
JessicaNovember 13, 2016Such a lovely cafe! Cosy interior and friendly staff. The BLT with salad / soup was less than €7! And the sandwich was huge. Will definitely recommend to friends when visiting Brussels.
oliverAugust 4, 2017comfy café with good food and a heart for little kids. tasty breakfast, some beer. try the scrambled eggs.
Karly RodríguezMay 6, 2018Nice and big place, people speak many languages, breakfast are delicious and big, a fair price for them. Highly recommended!
- Timothy CohenOctober 3, 2021Big bright and family-friendly place to eat breakfast and brunch. A bit expensive but it’s really good and the service is fast and friendly no matter how crowded it is.
Dmitriy ProtsykFebruary 22, 2015Nice food. Good vibe. Come here for a weekday lunch or brunch. Also, they have three breakfasts, one of them a full English - a rarity in Brussels.
José João MartinsJanuary 9, 2015A good address for a rendezvous around a coffee or a beer, cozy atmosphere, friendly service
RAKANOctober 2, 2023One of the best breakfast spots in Brussels 🍳🥯 average coffee ☕️ friendly staff 🤍
NigelAugust 6, 2018Great breakfasts and reasonably quiet on a Sunday morning. Coffee not the best but the decor, service and especially the food make up for it.
Willem SleursApril 1, 2017Great place for lunch. Buzzing with nice energy and armosphere. fresh and wholesome ingredients. Too bad they scrapped their excellent caesar salad and other salads from the menu.
Abdullrahman AlZaabiJune 16, 2018Nice atmosphere, kids friendly and delicious food. I ordered the American branch and the service was fast and very good.
Miroslav VitanovNovember 12, 2016Delicious breakfast, nice staff and great atmosphere! The WiFi pass is CHICAGO45
- S M.April 5, 2019Their pancakes are perfeeecttt, they come with the American breakfast which is soo goodd also 👍🏼 this is the best breakfast restaurant. Don’t miss it !
- George BalaskasMay 17, 2017Just come here to try the peanut butter pancakes! Very cozy & romantic place to have brunch! Suggested!
Marijke RaspoetFebruary 2, 2019Great food, drinks, tarts! Great vibes! Very child friendly: play corner; extensive toilet facilities for babies. Eclectic interior. Free WiFi.
Chris R (thechristophe)December 21, 2018Tasty breakfast eats, plenty of vegetarian and vegan options. Chilled out and friendly service.
Manoel AbreuSeptember 12, 2016You have to know what to order. Some sandwiches are huge. But pancakes are disappointing and small. Very noisy on Sundays. They should work on some insulation. Definitely not a cozy relaxed atmosphere
Maxime JeanOctober 4, 2014Nice place to hang out, very cozy. And quite affordable menu (see photo). Be aware, the kitchen close at 3pm.
DianaJune 1, 2018Great place for having a quick meal at any time. They have vegan & vegetarian options, including in their Sunday brunch (25€).
Alexandros PlexidasMarch 22, 2015The interior is quite unique. Nice for a coffee or even work but only during weekdays where it's not as busy as weekends. The menu resembles the one of Houtsiplou.- Lars GinnerupJanuary 2, 2019Cafe that tries to be a casual modern arty, but the food is a bit on the basic, and it’s too crowded and noisy to really enjoy. This place was probably happening years ago, but you can find better.
- Andrea D'IppolitoJune 14, 2017Very nice place, vintage forniture and great food for a reasonable price
Hela SlimMay 8, 2017Very nice place with tasty homemade food and a cool setting. Perfect for a trendy Sunday brunch.
Noga BlagodarskySeptember 8, 2015The interior is lovely, desserts and food are fresh and tasty, coffee awful 😔
Maxim BakhmatovFebruary 17, 2019Nice place, but nothing special, staff confused my order twice. First time they brought my plate to other table, next time my coffee. It was very crowded when I was there, probably that was a reason
Nicolas BaygertFebruary 1, 2015Great brunch place - except they don't really serve brunches (before 12:00). Average "croque Madame". Children-friendly (if you're looking for a quiet place, it's not for you).
- Chris R (thechristophe)April 16, 2022A lot has changed, the menu is quite different now. They don't take cards and the vibe is all off.
Daniela AyersMarch 1, 2016Family friendly with toys, books and play areas for young children. A delicious variety of foods, friendly and welcoming staff.
Clara SeeberJanuary 9, 2019We had a lovely breakfast here, the eggs were great and the atmosphere was vibrant and colourful! ☀️
Anthony ZacharzewskiApril 9, 2022Great vibe and good menu but food has been cold on both recent visits. 🥶
Kelly LangenusJanuary 24, 2015Absolutely loved this! Nice decorations and food. Def coming back here.
Hans HerzbergApril 16, 2016Authentic place.. Cool and relax...breakfast and lunchtime the place to be.... Trendy place
Martijn KörversSeptember 24, 2014Power sockets near all wall side tables and free WiFi! (password: BOEMPATAT)
Mayor NikolaevaFebruary 18, 2018Very crowded and noisy, many kids. Long waiting to be seated. Food is not any special. Pancakes were dry, “Belgian breakfast” is just a few breads with jam and butter which took half an hour to cook.
