    Masala chai

    Randomly found this place down the street from our hotel one morning! Was craving some savory waffles and woodpecker 47 delivered. Thankfully we came early because after we received our food, the wait was long and seating was a little difficult. So go early! We ordered some Benedict waffles off the menu and it was absolutely divine! So good we came back the next day to try more. Their chai latte was also not too sweet but had the perfect amount of spice. Cute little restaurant in the heart of Brussels. Will definitely go back!

    Great breakfast place! I went on a Monday morning about 15 minutes after they opened and was not crowded at all. Service was very quick and friendly. Enjoyed the outside seating being able to sit and watch the street activity. Ordered coffee and the 'Brunch in a Bun' and it was great! Prices were reasonable considering the touristy area. About 20 euros for coffee and breakfast. Definitely would recommend and will go again to try something else.

    Drunken sailor

    Trust me, Im not cavalier about giving out Five Star reviews for restaurants on Yelp. Other than historical sites and tours I think I can count the Five Star restaurant reviews on one hand. That being said.....the drunken sailor dish at Woodpecker 47 has taken the title (at least for now) of the best breakfast/brunch bite of food I have ever had. The leak waffle with the delicious smoked salmon, perfectly poached egg and creamy hollandaise (with a touch of spice added) was crunchy, creamy, salty, Smokey and sweet all in one. It was so good I had it two days in a row and would have sent for a third had I not had to catch a train to Amsterdam. If you're in the area get your ass over there. Oh yea, the bacon grilled cheese and burgers were pretty good to but if I were you.....go drunken Sailor and don't look back!!!!

    This is the best waffle breakfast in my European travel! The magic mushroom entree was delicious! The ambiance was relaxed. Service was great. I definitely recommend if you're in Brussels to eat here for breakfast.

    Went on a Sunday around 3:30 and we were sat right away, brunch ends at 4pm and smash burgers start at 5pm. Tables are fairly close to one another and there was only one waitress but she was doing her best. Menus are scanned with a QR code on the table, also it is one check only per table. There's something for everyone from vegan to carnivore...English muffins, sourdough bread and waffles. Overall good came out pretty fast and was very good. They do have a bathroom so that's a plus!

    Speck special

    The husband and I were walking around before many things were open and decided to stop into this adorable place. We each had a waffle - his drunken sailor had salmon, my speck special had thick ham (aka speck) . Both dishes come covered in a lovely hollandaise sauce that has a tiny kick. You pick your coffee up at the bar (mime had oat milk, yay!) then you get a timer for your meal so you can pick it up at the kitchen window. Both the Barista (helped my sad French out by speaking English) and chef were charming. This place has a trendy young vibe with lots of charm.

    Chicken is dark meat. They don't have ketchup. Service was fine, but the place is extremely crowded.

    Poached Eggs were good, but their service atrocious. 5 waiters and one chef unable to cope. 40 minutes to get our food.

    A great authentic Belgian meal while you're in Brussels! This restaurant has been around for a…read morelong time, is always packed, often with a lineup outside. But they do their best to seat as many people as possible. I got in fairly quickly because i was alone. The food was fantastic. I had the Carbonade a la Biere, and it was so great! Like a beef stew and very tasty. Also had some good Belgian beer. Service was attentive and very fast. The restaurant is lively and exciting - not really a quiet romantic dinner. But a lot of fun!

    If you want to try Belgian food with reasonable prices then this was one good option in Brussels…read more I arrived early for Friday night dinner and the restaurant was just over half full with lots of available seating. While the register states No Cards one of the servers told the table next to mine not worry when they didn't have enough euros. Only a drink menu was provided and the dishes being served that day were handwritten on moveable boards or posted on the wall. I had on my list a couple to try but finally went with the Belgian carbonades à la biere which was beef stew with mashed potatoes in a dark gravy made with beer. The plate was quite generous and much appreciated since I devoured it. I enjoyed the creaminess of the potatoes swirled with gravy but the meat could've been a tad bit more tender. Service was good. I think everyone on the floor stopped by my table for one reason or the other. Ambiance was casual and looked like many people were taking their time over their meals. When finished you need head to the register to settle the tab. I paid in cash. Worth a return visit.

    Came here for lunch together with my brothers, and it turned out to be an excellent choice!…read more We were all craving some real good looking sandwiches, and this place seemed just like it when I found it on Yelp. When we arrived we were met by a really nice guy behind the counter who helped us oit with his recommemdations. There were so much delicious options, but in the end I got the Chorizo and Goat Cheese Foccia as well as the Peppered Salami & Cheese Panini Melt. Originally the peppered salami & cheese was only an option for the ciabatta, but the guy let us choose different bread if we wanted to. Awesome service, I'm telling you. Both of them were super tasty, and pretty filling. If you're looking for a place that's got both the taste and the filling for a good price, this is the place for you.

    I can't attest to the deliciousness of Delish's dishes, but I can say, when I was desperately in…read moreneed of some wifi to figure out just where the Hell I was after the stressful debacle that encompassed my time at Brussels airport, Delish was there for me with a friendly, well-spoken staff and a nice list of coffee drinks to warm me up on a rainy day. Compared to the medinas in Morocco I would spend the next few weeks walking through, the streets of Brussels are fairly easy to navigate, although signage is still lacking to some degree. My GPS signal was pretty much nonexistent, so after guessing which train stop I needed to get off on, I really needed to pull up a map on an internet connection to get well situated. Delish prominently displayed their free wifi sign, at a time when few other businesses were open so early in the morning. What a relief. After getting settled in with a connection I decided to sample one of their signature coffee drinks, a mocha with a chantilly cream topping and real chunks of Belgian chocolate at the bottom. I didn't know I needed it, but once I had it damn was I grateful. It was the perfect pick-me-up for the sour attitude I was experiencing after dealing with such bad customer service, and the gals here helped relieve some of that too. Their welcoming demeanor and smiles really made a difference for me that morning, and helped change my impression of the otherwise cold city to that point.
