De Bühne — Restaurant in Bruges

If I could give restaurant more stars- I would! It was one of the best meals I have ever eaten! Know this before going- we went to lunch at 12:30. She stops serving at 1:30. Her restaurant is petite- charming, warm and inviting. You feel like you are in someone’s home. As you enter the restaurant/bakery your senses are awakened by the divine aroma of freshly baked pastries. The meals are made to order- so plan a food experience! The whole meal time is lengthy and worth every minute. Expect to be treated individually special- like coming home for a home cooked meal with the very best of ingredients, cooked to perfection, made by someone who really cares about you. It was apparent that Anna, the owner, loves her restaurant, loves sharing her incredible food and loves her customers. She takes special care in serving each of her customers with gracious perfection. Our meal- Vegan!!!!! Was spectacular. And the freshly made spelt bread and the black bread was wonderful! The vegetable soup was the best soup I have ever eaten. The puff pastry entree was a rare treat for a vegan- and it was delicious. We also had risotto with the freshest vegetables and a lentil potato dish that was heavenly. As I said, one of the best meals I ever had. Anna should offer cooking classes! She is an incredible chef! Thank you Anna! We will be back to enjoy...

We were very eager to try this place and the food looked and smelled absolutely delicious. Biggest problem being that we never got to try this. From the start we felt very unwelcome. First we called to get directions because Google maps showed the wrong place and we were told she couldn't help and we had to figure it out ourselves. When we finally found the place she was immediately very distant, even physically and it put a weird atmosphere. Then when I called her over to order she just said that this is not fast food and we might as well go somewhere else if that's what we want. Even though we knew beforehand that it would take time we ended up leaving as we had never before felt so unwelcome in a restaurant. Very unpleasant experience and...

Don't be in a hurry to eat at this restaurant (~1h30-2h), but you really won't be disappointed. The wait is due to the fact that everything is home-made (even the bread) and not in advance. They only start making the dishes after you have ordered. Nothing is microwaved or defrosted, no industrial food. The food is really high quality and so good! There is a whole vegetarian menu with 4 choices of dishes and starters, with more than half available as vegan. It was really delicious, one of the best vegan restaurants I've been to. The lady who works there is really nice and attentive to our needs. The room is small (can accommodate about ten people) so it has the advantage of being very very quiet, which was a plus. I can only...
