Boaboa Records Café — Restaurant in Uccle - Ukkel

All atmosphere with little more to offer. It’s great that you can hear hand spun vinyl, and mingle amongst the boho-bobo Uccleois crowd, but the bread and butter of this establishment falls short.

The food was mediocre at best, and though the servers were friendly, being asked to pay-as-you-go feels low class for a spot that is trying to be hip, and an unconventional practice in Brussels. When I said I planned on ordering more, I was told that the owners watch the servers on security cameras and insist 🙃.

The €13 chicken flatbread was small in size, and passable, but left much to be desired. I ordered a desert because I was still hungry, and it was not worth the €9 price tag.

Go for a drink, maybe. Eat...

Where do I begin? Let’s start with the good. The espresso martini is amazing! Okay that’s it.

The staff is obnoxious, just like the clients coming here. The music is way too loud for a listening bar. The staff basically harasses you into keep ordering drinks when you are at your last sip but then continues to ignore you when you want to order. Oh and in a neighbourhood where the riches live….you have to pay BEFORE you get your drink (which I then wrong) and then wait 10+ minutes for a simple drink to arrive. Very absurd. Do they think clients will run away? Is this how rich people...

The staff is pressuring you to clean the table even if you haven't finished your plate or drink. They came 3 times to take the plate which clearly had a whole aubergine there. Same for the drinks, do not take away my last sip, I paid 12 euros for this. And it's not that I stayed there forever, I stayed from 19 to 21 and ordered 3 rounds of drinks. Why do you pressure me by asking me if you can clean up the table? Please educate your staff better. We come there to relax, not to fight with your waiters over...
