You might have a small problem trying to find this pub though. But it's worth the search. Located between the monastery of Orval and the basilica of Avioth, The Oak Inn is a tiny country pub serving about a dozen of real English ales & bitters, some Belgian beers and local delices as Orval trappist ale, maitrank and local wine. It's quiet, there's a nice big terrace for long summer evenings and a wood stove with a crackling for long winter evenings. The building is pretty impressive; the pub is just a small part of what owners Mike & Paskie eventually want to convert into a pub/recording studio/music venue. The music studio is actually open, but not in its definite form yet. Mike will be happy to show you around and tell you all about it. Every good review mentions a few downsides as well... Hard to come up with any, but there you go: although there's probably not much demand for it (Breux has a population of just over 250), it would be nice if the pub would be open in the afternoons too. And a simple snack/meal would be ideal. Just some 'tartines' with Orval cheese, a quiche or a pizza... No, nothing more on the down side really. Here's a treasure map for you: at the church coming from Orval, take a left into the northern part of the Grande Rue. Coming from Avioth, go straight ahead at the church. Look for number 44 (right hand side), go around the building and there you are...
