A spacious family-friendly café with a vintage style and American-influenced cuisine. A relaxed place for a lazy day

Paulien N

Wow. Refreshing home made red ice tea with a bit of cinnamon . Croque chèvre w pesto , honey , rucola was sooo good and big portion . Fresh fruit salad (nectarine , apple , melon ,...) for only €4,5! 👏🏼

Mateusz Borkowski

That was great! One of the best breakfast in my life. The crew is so nice and friendly . And the design of course is absolutely stunning. Such a lovely place to hangout with friends for some coffee !

Elizabeth Skewes

My party tried different dishes and we all agreed everything was tasty. Plenty of options to chose from. The venue is very spacious so even when they are busy it does’t feel crowded . Recommended!

Lars Ginnerup

New updated menu - better than the old one. Really enjoyed the Italian version of a shakshuka with tomato sauce , beans, eggs and burrata . Place still very popular - be ready to wait a little for table

Jessica

Such a lovely cafe ! Cosy interior and friendly staff . The BLT with salad / soup was less than €7! And the sandwich was huge. Will definitely recommend to friends when visiting Brussels.

oliver

Timothy Cohen

Big bright and family-friendly place to eat breakfast and brunch . A bit expensive but it’s really good and the service is fast and friendly no matter how crowded it is.

RAKAN

One of the best breakfast spots in Brussels 🍳🥯 average coffee ☕️ friendly staff 🤍

Willem Sleurs

Great place for lunch . Buzzing with nice energy and armosphere. fresh and wholesome ingredients. Too bad they scrapped their excellent caesar salad and other salads from the menu.

Karly Rodríguez

Nice and big place, people speak many languages, breakfast are delicious and big, a fair price for them. Highly recommended!

George Balaskas

Tasty breakfast eats, plenty of vegetarian and vegan options . Chilled out and friendly service .

Dmitriy Protsyk

Nice food. Good vibe. Come here for a weekday lunch or brunch . Also, they have three breakfasts , one of them a full English - a rarity in Brussels.

Marijke Raspoet

Great food, drinks, tarts ! Great vibes! Very child friendly : play corner; extensive toilet facilities for babies. Eclectic interior. Free WiFi .

Maxime Jean

Nice place to hang out, very cozy . And quite affordable menu (see photo). Be aware, the kitchen close at 3pm.

Diana

Great place for having a quick meal at any time. They have vegan & vegetarian options , including in their Sunday brunch (25€).

RAKAN

Good cafe for breakfast 🍳

José João Martins

A good address for a rendezvous around a coffee or a beer , cozy atmosphere , friendly service

Manoel Abreu

You have to know what to order. Some sandwiches are huge. But pancakes are disappointing and small. Very noisy on Sundays. They should work on some insulation. Definitely not a cozy relaxed atmosphere

Abdullrahman AlZaabi

Nice atmosphere, kids friendly and delicious food. I ordered the American branch and the service was fast and very good.

Alexandros Plexidas

The interior is quite unique. Nice for a coffee or even work but only during weekdays where it's not as busy as weekends. The menu resembles the one of Houtsiplou.

Lars Ginnerup

Cafe that tries to be a casual modern arty, but the food is a bit on the basic, and it’s too crowded and noisy to really enjoy. This place was probably happening years ago, but you can find better.

Hela Slim

Very nice place with tasty homemade food and a cool setting. Perfect for a trendy Sunday brunch .

Miroslav Vitanov

Delicious breakfast , nice staff and great atmosphere! The WiFi pass is CHICAGO45

Stephanie Socatelli

Loved the place, it’s atmosphere!! Omg the pancakes , AMAZING

Clara Seeber

We had a lovely breakfast here, the eggs were great and the atmosphere was vibrant and colourful! ☀️

Chris R (thechristophe)

A lot has changed, the menu is quite different now. They don't take cards and the vibe is all off.

Daniela Ayers

Family friendly with toys , books and play areas for young children. A delicious variety of foods, friendly and welcoming staff .

Maxim Bakhmatov

Nice place, but nothing special, staff confused my order twice. First time they brought my plate to other table, next time my coffee . It was very crowded when I was there, probably that was a reason

Caner Can

American style dining in Brussels.

Nicolas Baygert

Great brunch place - except they don't really serve brunches (before 12:00). Average "croque Madame". Children-friendly (if you're looking for a quiet place , it's not for you).

Anthony Zacharzewski

Great vibe and good menu but food has been cold on both recent visits. 🥶

Hans Herzberg

Authentic place.. Cool and relax...breakfast and lunchtime the place to be.... Trendy place

Andrea D'Ippolito

Very nice place, vintage forniture and great food for a reasonable price

Yoshi

The brunches are to die for!! You get a lot and the food is fresh.

Noga Blagodarsky

The interior is lovely, desserts and food are fresh and tasty, coffee awful 😔

Iria K.

Croque aubergine is a must-try. Great brunch choices!!

Martijn Körvers

Power sockets near all wall side tables and free WiFi ! (password: BOEMPATAT)

Cosy, nice design and fresh !

Cynthia vander Have

Original setting but bit loudy and not so very exceptional food...

Evelyn H

Try the quesadillas ! They come with a salad and a dressing . Very tasty!

... 😁Abdullah...

Pancake with syrup and cream was really good

Emre Dinçer

Breakfast is super good. Also quite spacious .

Fulya

Love this place. Perfect for 'take it easy' lunch .

Jac BXL

Huge nice healthy portions

Mayor  Nikolaeva

Very crowded and noisy , many kids. Long waiting to be seated. Food is not any special. Pancakes were dry, “Belgian breakfast ” is just a few breads with jam and butter which took half an hour to cook.

Stuart Green

Fantastic food but very busy during late morning.
