A nice and rustic Belgian restaurant in the awesome Muntstraat. Anyone looking for a bite in Leuven…read moreshould check this area out. As for the Kansel, authentic Belgian meals are prepared here. Witlof, mussels, game and stew. Some of which prepared in Belgian beer. Kindly priced and in a relaxed atmosphere, great after a day of shopping or a family/friends meal.

Don't hesitate to order a bottle of Belgian beer with it.

Staff was not really friendly to start off. Our waitress was rude and not friendly at all! Our waitress knew we weren't from here and was getting upset when I ask about what they where serving us. The problem was that the menu is fixed. I came here hungry and I am leaving hungry. Not even the appetizer or dessert tasted good. At less the beer was nice and cold!! That is why I at less gave them a one star.
