On the day we visited, they had pommel (apple), vanilla, speculous, chocolate, and original waffles. Plenty of toppings to choose from of course. The shape is irregular like a Liege waffle, but the waffle is quite light and fluffy, soft on the inside and crispy outside. All the waffles are freshly made and served warm b/c of constant demand, just delicious. We ate a lot of waffles while in Brussels, Ghent, Antwerp, etc. This was the best.

The best waffle in Belgium period. It was so so good that I had it twice in a day. In the morning I…read morehad the waffle with chocolate inside. This waffle, unlike all the others I had, has a more bread-like consistency and needs no toppings. In the evening I had the rasberry waffle, with rasberry sauce and whipped cream. Both were amazing, but the one I had in the morning was truly unbeatable. I can't describe how great it is so you'd simply have to try it for yourself. They also sold mini waffles they make fresh daily, so I bought that as well!

We made a special effort to get back to this shop and brought another couple we met on a walking…read moretour back with us. We had never eaten here before, but from just looking through the window, it seemed like the best place to find good waffles. Our instincts were spot on!! My husband and I ordered different waffles so we could both get to taste two flavors. Both flavors were absolutely delicious. It's hard to find words to say how good they were. We didn't want to stop eating them. Our new companions seemed to agree with us. They were all smiles at having stuck with us as we scrambled to find the shop while needing to catch a train to leave town by a certain time. The service could have been better -- but after the first bite of their waffles, I stopped caring about service.

I came by at 9:45 and was told they opened at 10, came back at 10:05, they said another 20 mins. I went to Frite and ordered my liege waffle (costs 3€ here as opposed to the 2.50 at Funambule). They just reheat the waffle in the iron. Service is much better here, nice and kind. The waffle itself was denser and sweeter than the Belgian waffle. I actually preferred this because of the crunchy bites and I didn't mind that some of it was a little floppy- it made for good bite ratios.

What's better than a Sunday morning brunch?…read more The wife and I have been to our share of disappointing brunches. We either end up leaving hungry, paying too much for too little, or eating an uninspired breakfast that neglects the "-unch" suffix of brunch. When it comes to the brunch at Boentje, none of these things are true. We both ordered the waffle of the week, which came with a marinated pulled chicken and tomato sauce. Delicious. The little accompanying salad was a nice touch as well, especially with the almonds. That's not all though. The yogurt with granola was so so tasty, as well as the preserved lemon(?) paste(?)/spread(?) on the other waffle... Oh and there's cookie dough for some reason (it's pretty good too.) To drink, I had a flat white, and the wife a cappuccino with oat milk. Both were made very well. The wife also got a tea, and myself? a cidre from local establishment Joran (worth trying too!). Oh... Did I mention they also do all you can eat bread with jams and spreads? Yeah. Amazing. That spéculoos spread was to die for. We left stuffed--granted we ate our share of bread and jams. This is the best brunch I've had in a very long time!

This place serves fruit bowls, fresh-squeezed juices and fresh veggies as well as typical breakfast and lunch items. They specialize in poached eggs and peck-style waffles. I went with the charcoal pancakes which has strawberry sauce and lime cream cheese; I also had egg, OJ, and a latte. My colleague had avocado toast with spring mix. I was very pleased with the charcoal pancakes but the portion was quite small. It's a good thing that I ordered egg as well. My colleague loved the avocado toast.
