We went here on a gorgeous spring day, mostly to enjoy the lovely terrace. The terrace has a tropical vibe with palm trees en white sand. For children there is jumping castle and lots of toys to play with in the sand. We really enjoyed sitting in the sun and I have to recommend the sangría which was superb.

Brasserie de Vlegel had a big fire in their kitchen somewhere in February. The team worked very hard to repair all the damage, so the brasserie could reopen after only two months. Due to these unfortunate circumstances the menu was very limited. We could only choose between about ten very basic dishes.

I ordered a plain steak without any sauce. The steak was cooked as ordered (saignant), but I was a little disappointed by the very small side salad. Luckely I got more than enough fries. The food was ok, but served too cold. As if the waiter had forgotten to serve the dishes in time. The food of our friends was also too cold. A real shame, because I loved the summer vibe in this place.

Would go back for drinks, not for the food.
