    Belgium created the French Fry. Their method is a bit different, in that they usually par boil, then fry. They serve them up in paper cones. This place had some awesome frites! They have 35 different dipping sauces! I tried the curry ketchup and harissa. Wowtastic good! They do other things but that's 90% of their business. Tables outside, it's a very long line with a shop so small there's no room to stand and wait for your food. Star down for the clerk at the register with all of the warmth of the arctic circle in January. I know it's a crap job, with hundreds of people all day, in your face. Find a little more grace, or a new job!

    Okay okay I had to try Belgian fries but unfortunately the only halal Belgian fry place was this MEGA VIRAL one. Shoutout to them for being legit the only ones using halal beef tallow. What makes fries Belgian are that they use beef tallow to fry them. Here, like in other fries places in Belgium, they're cut to order and loaded with as much or as little sauce as you want. That being said, I don't actually get the hype. I've had a ton of fries in my life from a variety of places and nothing really stood out to me about this place. I guess I expected something to be different taste wise or texture wise but it was a pretty standard thick fry with sauce. They're not making sauces in house or anything so nothing special there. Not sure why this place went viral but not worth standing on the line for unless like me you can only have halal. It's nice that they're open super late too so they get 4 instead of 3 stars from me for the late hours and being halal but otherwise they're a 3/3.5 tops.

    Made to order and pretty delicious! I appreciated their extensive sauce selection. Did the Dallas and the andalouse! One had a nice kick! Must try when in Belgium

    We came right before lunch and there was a small line. The store is REALLY SMALL and there's only 1 person working so be patient. We got the fries with andalouse sauce and a cheese ball. The andalouse sauce was recommended by the staff there. She was recommending it to the next people as well. It was really good and strangely addictive. It's hard to describe how it tastes. It's very savoury and creamy. Just try it - it's good. The fries are crispy and not overly fried Skip the cheese ball - it's not very good. No cheese flavour and it's boring. Would recommend you try the fries with andalouse sauce

    We saw fries all over and knew we had to sample some ourselves. With a wall full of sauces to choose from you'll surely find one that suits your taste. Not knowing which one to go with the staff helped us narrow down our choices, to which we decided on the house sauce. It was tangy with the slightest bit of heat. But the potatoes themselves were the real star of the show, they were crispy, thick and fluffy on the inside. Even when we got towards the bottom we found the chips to still be crispy. Be sure to stop by and pick up a cone of chips!

    Just decent fries, but nevertheless the best I've had in Belgium thus far! That said, my comparison set are the brasseries at which I've been dining, rather than super specialized frites shops. I was lucky that there was barely any line when I arrived. There may have been at most 4 people in front of me. I ordered a small fries, which were 3 EUR, and added their most popular andalouse sauce for 1 EUR. The fries were a decent portion, the perfect size for a snack. They were piping hot, crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. However, they started to get soggy after only about 10 minutes. I'm happy that I asked for the andalouse on the side. The mayo-based sauce was creamy and slightly spicy, and there was so much that I will have leftovers to spread on a sandwich! Service was pretty crummy - the guy taking the orders was quite rude. I'd expect nothing more from a fast food frites place in such a super touristy area!

    This was our first try at Belgium fries and after trying 2 other places that day, these were my favorite. We were there on a Tuesday at 11:30am and there was a short line. It's a small take away shop with a few tables and chairs outside. Only 2 staffs were working and later that day there was a long line. We received our order of small fries within 10 minutes of being in line. They had a ton of sauces. A bit overwhelming especially since I've never heard of or tried most of them. When asked the staff which was their popular sauce, she offered us a sample and the recommended andalouse sauce was a great choice. It's 1 euro for the sauce or 1.5 euro for double the sauce. The standard is 3 pumps of the sauce and we felt that was just the right amount for the small size. The fries were crispy and fresh and just how I expected Belgium fries to be.

    There is always a line out the door for this place, every time we've passed by it. But don't be deterred, the shop is small. We got there at around 5:30 on a Thursday and waited about 10 minutes. We ordered a large frites and it was so good. It's the perfect size for two people without leaving you feeling greasy. Sauces are €1 for a single or €1.50 for a double. There are sooo many sauces to choose from. I didn't even know what most of them were so we went with the Samourai sauce because judging from the huge almost empty tub, it seemed to be the most popular one. It has a kick to it and reminds me of spicy mayo. You definitely need double sauce for the large. I just wish they layered it instead of pouring it all on top. That would probably be my only gripe. Other than that, it was a cheap and delicious snack, perfect for eating while exploring the city.

    I came with much excitement to try this while visiting Brussels. As it turns out, it's too much of a hype. The fries itself are nothing special, it's not even salty. Then it's lathered with sauces, mostly mayo based. It would have been better if fries are sprinkled with salt, garlic salt or ranch powder and the likes first before dipping in different sauces. Also I would prefer sauce on the side so fries doesn't get soggy and soft.

    Cool spot to enjoy some fries. They have two sizes, petit and grand. They also have about 16 different sauces to enjoy with your fries. They offer more food on their menu like burgers, baguette sandwiches, and other options. They have indoor and outdoor sitting. The service is quick and the food is good.

    Wasn't what I was expecting but I appreciate the variety of choices the menu offered. The line was very long and service was average. We sat outside and I'm grateful the weather and ambiance made up for the lackluster fries.

    All the different sauces you put on your French fries.

    Was recommended as one of the best places to get French fries in Brussels by our walking tour guide. We found it and were amazed by all the different sauces you could top your fries with. I just had simple ketchup but overall the French fries were very good. I would recommend stopping there if you happen to walk by. But be aware that there will probably be a line, but it goes pretty fast.

    Andalouse sauce

    Amazing fries! I was between the andalouse and samurai sauces, but the lady behind the counter told me to go with andalouse (most popular). Delicious! I waited in line for maybe 15 minutes.

    We had just arrived in Brussels and needed to blow off some energy before bed so we decided to go…read moreon a late night walk to grab a bite to eat. That walk took us to a neighborhood full of burgers, halal, and all the other late night eats one could crave, including my personal favourite fried chicken. BFC is a small shop that sells all sorts of fried chicken from tenders to wings along with sandwiches, burgers, and of course lots of french fries. I didn't know what I wanted to try so I settled on a combo that had chicken wings, chicken strips, and French fries (couldn't leave only trying one). The chicken strips were great, with juicy chicken and pretty good flavoring on the outside. The French fries were super crispy and a great side piece to the main course. The main event though? Those beautiful breaded chicken wings. I loved these things! The meat was juicy, the breading was phenomenal with just the right amount of crunch and softness, a fantastic chicken wing. Overall, BFC is a fast food fried chicken powerhouse. Everything I ate was top notch fast food and the staff were super quick to get the food out. Located right in the center of everything, this place has outdoor seating during the day and I believe some inside as well but I really wasn't looking. I hope I can squeeze in one more trip before I move onto France!

I'm the surface both look the same. Chicken is at the top of the menu. It's good chicken. It's fast, it's seasoned. You get served quickly by the plethora of waiters present: who all will deliver a scorned look, if you don't get your order fast enough. The interior is plain, I don't quite enjoy eating there. I miss the experience, but they make it up by focusing on their core: delivering tasty checking as fast as possible. The restroom, well it's not perfect, but it's a start & you can use it. There's a huge TV that provides the entertainment. It's super noisy & quite irritating but hey, you cannot have it all.
