Florentin

A lovely terrace, friendly service, and a brunch club on the weekend – what more could you ask for? Evenings are a party here, especially when you combine the chef's menu with a wine pairing.

Bar French

At the Grand Place, you'll find Bar Frans, complete with a terrace overlooking the iconic square. This French bistro offers a number of classics, but our absolute favorite is and remains the croque madame. It's just as good as the real deal in Paris.
