Waffle with chocolate
Kristin H.

We tried a total of 5 waffle places - 4 Liege waffles and 1 Brussels waffle. We tried three of these places in Bruges and this is my favorite waffle place in terms of waffle (not topping). We got the waffle with chocolate. The chocolate is too milky and sweet, so I would skip it next time and just get it plain. The waffle is freshly made. It's soft and molten on the inside and slightly crunchy on the outside. It's a delicious treat after climbing the Belfrey. There is no place to sit inside the store, but you can hold and eat your waffle. There is always a short (~3 people) line, but I guess it's popular enough that nearby stores have posters asking you not to eat waffles in front of their stores lol.

You must stop and get a Belgium waffle while in Belgium, and this is a worthy stop. Waffle was tasty, and the toppings were great. They are baked on site and served warm and tasty.

Belgian waffle with chocolate sauce (4.50 Euro)

It's a hole in the wall Belgian waffle place. We got the Belgian waffle with chocolate sauce on top. Very delicious and the waffle was freshly made. I would come back if I'm in Brugge again.

This is a must do in Bruges for delicious authentic Belgian waffles! They have a small variety of options to choose from. The dough is clean and decadent and the toppings are also incredibly delicious!

This was great

Delicious Belgian waffle with strawberries & cream. Lots of people waiting on their waffles, but they serve them fairly quick.

I visited Bruges, a beautiful medieval city in Belgium. I was eager to try a Belgian waffle and found a place in the center of town. I chose the classic item--a waffle topped with strawberries and chocolate. The waffle itself was good, and while the chocolate sauce was quite sweet, it was delicious. The strawberries were also very sweet and not sour at all! I was very satisfied with the Belgian waffle and really enjoyed it. It was definitely worth experiencing this quintessential Belgian comfort food.

I came to Bruges on a day trip from a cruise. So safe to say I did not have much time in the city. But I came in on a mission and first on that list was belgium waffles. When we got off the taxi we started walking around the square and stumbled upon this spot. Once in front of it I googled real quick best waffles in the city and this place was on the list. So instead of wasting time walking around we got right to business and ordered two of them. I was with my boss and we opted for sharing two different options. The first one was a waffle with milk chocolate, strawberries, and whipped cream, the second one was a waffle with caramel on top and whipped cream. The lady at the stand was making them fresh to order. She was super efficient, patient, and kind. The establishment is a little window, you cannot sit inside but don't worry there is a stoop right across the way where we sat and enjoyed ours. We tried both of them and shared them both equally. The strawberry and milk chocolate one was my favorite because the strawberries added such a freshness to the dish and it made it not so sweet. However, the caramel was a close competitor because it was fresh and simple and delicious. I would highly recommend this spot and the pro tip is to sit on the steps in front and just enjoy the waffle.

To each there own on waffle toppings!

When in Belgium you must have waffles! Fantastic fruit toppings, delicious whipped cream and the waffles were very flavorful. This is a walk up shop so you'll be walking and eating or find a seat a the plaza.

Yum yum yum! So delicious. Open late too, so if you're wanting a dessert waffle after hours -- this is the spot to go. Great staff interaction as well, they were very friendly and very helpful!

Definitely a tourist trap but genuinely good waffles. The strawberries were the sweetest I've ever had. Chai latte was tiny but a good addition.

Love Belgium chocolate! Excellent place to get the hot chocolate fixed, their hot chocolate was so creamy, buttery and delicious. 5/5 Big fan! They also sell Belgium waffles and ice cream too. We had the strawberries whipped cream Belgium chocolate waffle. Strawberries were fresh, but I wish it could have more chocolate and the handmade waffle could be more crispy. Location is good too, it's a small shop located in the heart of the Bruges old town. Mostly for grab and go. Easy to find, you can't miss it. It was a little bit of a wait, but overall it was a good treat on a cold winter day. Worth a try!

Liege Waffle, classic (€3,00); chocolat chaud
Jessica S.

This popular waffle stall is located on a busy walking lane between the Market Square and De Burg. They advertise the liege waffle heavily on their menu boards. We went for a classic liege waffle (€3,00) and a chcolat chaud. The pearls of sugar were generously inserted throughout so our waffle was not without a crisp -- delicious! In addition, the hot chocolate was a joy with its thick buttery consistency. They do have more decadent offerings that come pre-fixed with various sweet toppings, but the classic is your best bet for simple, quick breakfast to fuel you along your morning walk.

Kristine S.

Absolutely one of the best Belgian waffles I have ever had. Wish this was available here in the states. Service was quick. No place to sit down and eat which is why I gave it a four star. It's a bit hard to eat while standing in the crowd and since it is just in the open air it can get loud. But despite that I would eat this again without a doubt.

The absolute best waffle in Bruges. Went to another top rated fancier waffle place, but not even close.

Great waffles. Affordable. I thought a waffle is a waffle until I went to Belgium. Insanely good. Can't miss these if you're in Bruges.

Loved the waffles. We had a plain and a dark chocolate topping. Both were worth the wait of 20 minutes.

Absolutely loved these waffles. They are not what I was expecting. Can't wait to try other flavors.

They specialize in waffles and waffles alone, so you know they're going to be amazing waffles. You…read moresee them making them in the window and they are huge, with thick grooves, and a golden color. Belgium doesn't usually do syrup but this spot has it. It's more traditional to get fruit like strawberries or bananas on top, as well as chocolate sauce or powdered sugar. They have lots of topping and sauce options. They also have a great warm drink menu and the hot chocolate is epic. There's a line out the door and a minimum spend per table since the place is small but it's easy to hit. Enjoy!

We tried 5 waffle place in Belgium - 4 Liege and 1 Brussels waffle places. This is the Brussels…read morewaffle spot. It's a cozy cafe with available seating for 2 when we came in. They specialize in XL Brussels waffle, which is more airy, less chewy, and less sweet. They have a sign in English that each person must order a drink and a waffle can be shared by 2 people max. (It's interesting that they don't have one in any other language.) And this sign is only visible when you are sitting down; they should have been transparent before you choose to dine in by pasting the sign on a different face of the column. So be mindful that eating your waffle in the store may cost more than you expected. We got a waffle with banana. I thought it's ok since I like Liege waffles more (nothing against this cafe), but my partner really likes it. The bananas costs an extra 4.5 euros, so it's not worth it in our opinion. The staff didn't cut them, so it's nice to know they are two whole bananas. But I guess the extra 4.5 euros do not include their slicing? We were not planning to get drinks but we did because of the sign. My partner greatly enjoyed his coffee-based drink. I picked one of the cheapest ones, and it was ok. The staff is courteous and efficient. There is a WC available. If I come again, I would order a plain XL waffle for take out to bypass the drink requirement.
