If you are looking for a place that serves Belgian beers in a cosy atmosphere and nice and attentive staff, this is your place. We had a lovely evening enjoying mussels, fish and chips, and tasty beer. Will be back!

One of the last few places in the city that specialises in Belgian beer! Really friendly service, Two excellently poured bottles of Kwak and sat outside to watch the world go by. Very enjoyable indeed after a day out with the camera.
