Wow from the outside was not expecting to be blown away but our experience here set a new high on…read moreour European journey this year. This is a single room restaurant with 7 seat bar and 11 tables inside. Plus an outdoor seating area in front. The atmosphere is very rustic with deep rich brown walls and lighter brown wood floors with a rouge celling and front accent wall. Soft music/ blues playing in the background; soft enough to have a nice conversation, or just sit and sip your wine (not that it has to be wine, as they have bier and spirits as well. Photos of famous blues musicians decorate their walls. Server with limited English, but that worked fine with our limited French...lol.

Outside you have a terrace overlooking the town hall, which is heated when it gets a bit too cool. And upstairs you have a nice little restaurants serving, amongst other things, the prize-winning potjevleesch - a selection of cold pressed meats in jelly, served with chips. Sounds disgusting but it's actually nice ! The menu is fully translated into English too, which is useful.
