Afterwork, the Belgian way
Leave work behind for a bit: moules frites with a glass of wine or beer, or a beer box of six to taste. The perfect way to round off the day with a colleague or friend.
From the kitchen
Mussels, croquettes & waffles
Our menu is built on the Belgian classics: ten kinds of moules frites, Old Amsterdam cheese croquettes, steak frites with Belgian fries, and waffles to finish. Everything made from scratch.
