Went looking for somewhere to eat in the town & found this small but tidy restaurant in the corner…read moreof the market place. The staff spoke English & we ordered ribs & 2 beers. When the meal arrived we had a rack of pork ribs as long as your fore arm cut into 3 pieces, a small dish of salad & fries. It was the specialty & was absolutely delicious. The beer was from the tap and was equally as nice. Overall a well deserved 5 stars for not only the food but service & ambiance.

On what basis is this place getting five big ones? Well, it's not a Michelin Guide superstar…read morerestaurant. What it is is a very great example of what the Belgian coast does so well. A friterie (Fr), frituuror (Nl), or frying place that serves ice cream. So if it's fried, this place has it. The beignets are to die for. Oh my. Great outer texture. Soft interior with the right amount of powdered sugar on top. Forget about the ones in New Orleans. You have to come here. The waffles? Oh so delightful. Crispy on the outside and delicate fluff on the inside. Even better than the ones in the Grand Place in Brussels. Although my family likes another place for ice cream better, this is my favorite in Koksijde. The right amount of cream and well flavored with more bits inside. So it's not a dining locale. Don't come here because you think you'll get fine food. It's fried, Belgian style. Maybe a quick bite at lunch. But for gouter or after dinner tasting, it's worth the trip.

The restaurant is in the middle of town within a few blocks to the main town square. The menu has pictures of the nunnery attire, maybe how they brewed their own beer? They only had it in Dutch, no English menu. Food: 3/5. Bland food, which is not uncommon for Flemish cuisine, but meat was also quite tough. We tried the 2 most popular dishes, Brochette Oud Clooster, and Rundsstoverij met Westmalle Dubbel, and were not impressed. Both bland. The brochette was supposed to be medium rare but came out well done. Dry and tough. The dipping sauce has a hint of curry but wasn't enough to carry the whole dish. The stew has a yummy base, I could pick out the beer flavors (Belgians truly have the best beers in the world). Meat pieces were tough, which is a shame given this is a stew. They should have use a fattier cut of beef like chuck. Meme Gusta has a similar but much more flavorful Flemish stew. The no-bake cheese cake was light and refreshing. Good for 1 person, small to share between 2. Service: 2/5. They had no English menu. At this point I have come to Belgium enough to pick out a few familiar terms, but I would have liked to be able to see what other dishes they had. Had to aggressively flag down waiter whenever we needed something. they also charge €1.80 for tap water. This place is popular enough even for locals that one can't get in without reservations. We were told they only have 2 slots: 6-8 or 8-10. We picked the earlier one. The restaurant was only half full until about 7.
