Bruges

Bruges (Dutch (local name): Brugge) is a picturesque city in Flanders, the northern part of Belgium. Once Europe's richest city, it is now both cosmopolitan and bourgeois in its compact size. It is mainly known for its exceptionally well-preserved historical centre (especially by Belgian standards), which draws over 400,000 tourists annually.

  1. Drink

    't Brugs Beertje

    This excellent pub (recommended in the CAMRA guide to the Benelux region) has hundreds of different beers and an authentic beer-cafe atmosphere. Clientele is majority tourists. The front bar is crowded; what looks like the door through to the restrooms opens on another bar area. In 2005 it was closed for most of July - this might be an annual occurrence.

  2. Eat

    Books & Brunch

    An ideal combo of second hand book store and a brunch/dessert-eatery (but you can just have a cup of coffee or a tea too).

    Tue-Fri 08:30-18:00, Sat 09:00-18:00

  3. Eat

    Brasserie Forestière

    Nice and calm restaurant, good food, not too expensive. Good menu for vegetarians. Meal of the day (soup, main dish, dessert or coffee/tea) costs EUR 14 (May 2019) although this is the cheapest menu it has little choice.

    Closed · opens 11 am tomorrow

  4. Eat

    Grand Cafe Passage

    Attached to the Passage hotel/hostel (see below) is the atmospheric Grand Café, serving traditional Belgian cuisine and beers. Prices are slightly lower than the tourist traps and well worth it. Try the beef stew (very tender) or the ribs.
