It's one of the best places in town to enjoy a coffee with a nice piece of cake, or to enjoy breakfast, brunch or lunch. The best is their brunch formula on Saturday mornings, which is €18 for a delicious all you can eat buffet with a weekly changing selection of breads, salads, antipasti, quiche, etcetera. (Make sure to reserve in advance.) They use mostly organic products that are sourced from local producers (short chain concept), which is another plus. Other tips include the nice fruit and herb sodas they sell here, and the special local Alosta beer.

This family business services up INCREDIBLE food with a killer beer selection. This was one of my absolute favorite meals on our trip to Europe. We met up with a group of local friends who helped to order the food. The menu does have some English translations, which was helpful. I'm honestly not sure what I ordered.. It was a beef stew type dish "with love and patience" according to the menu. UGHHHH, I still have dreams about eating this. It's the perfect meal for a cloudy, cold day in Belgium. My boyfriend got some type of potato & meat casserole with a side salad. It was hot, flavorful, and good for the soul. Our friends got the meal of the day, which also looked delicious. Make sure you also get the pate wrap appetizer. Save room for a beer or two or three! There's too many to choose from. What the heck are you waiting for? Buy a ticket! Fly to Belgium! Eat here!!!!!! Go!!
