I wish I had stopped by here earlier. I confess that breakfast food items are my favorite type of food. I could eat French Toast or Waffles every day of the week... especially if the waffles taste like Bruges waffles! I started at the top of the menu with their most popular waffle, the Liege Vanilla Waffle. I loved everything about it. I love strawberries and there were several sliced strawberries on top. Who doesn't like a little whipped cream right? And the waffle had a great doughy texture that normally I wouldn't be a fan of but the flavor was incredible. I'm tempted to sneak in after closing and snag the recipe because it really is the best waffle I've ever had.
We also got a side of fries with one of their sauces out of the refrigerator. I'm not sure how fries go with a sweet waffle like the Liege Vanilla Waffle but they were still good fries. I think I'd rather them at lunch with a Machine Gun sandwich instead.
I think the owner (Pierre) stopped in while we were there and joked with the employees. He seemed to be very happy even though it was late in the evening and undoubtedly a long work day.
You can't really consider this place a "hole in the wall" even though it's not much bigger than that. This part of town has some fancy little restaurants that I would eat at much more often if I lived closer. I've heard good things about their neighboring Thai restaurant so if you go with a group that doesn't like waffles, tell them to snag some Thai and you can eat out on the...
Read moreWe have been coming here every summer for the last 5 years. This will be our last time. When we first started coming to Bruges, the food quality was fantastic, perfect even. The owner was there and super friendly. The last few times we have come to eat, the staff wasn’t very friendly and the waffles were lacking their original amazing taste and texture and the owner didn’t seem to be around. For the price, the quality just isn’t there now. I got the chicken and waffle, which is 2 small chicken strips and one small waffle and my spouse got a waffle with a friend egg and a sausage link, one side of medium fries. No drink. That was $40.00. I think It’s hard to hire help, and have them care about your business as much as the owner does, so we think that could be the issue. The girl with the nose piercing on both sides of her nose (didn’t catch her name) seemed slightly annoyed, as soon as we walked in. All the waffles we got were over cooked and slightly stuck to the tray. This all might just be a training issue and can be remedied. The sauces and fries are delicious though, and we still really love those. The atmosphere is table seating on the side-walk, underneath trees. It’s really lovely. Maybe a phone call to see if the owner is in,...
Read moreThis is a lovely little hole-in-the-wall location! I had heard about this place from a co-worker. One fall afternoon I strolled from work, passed the park, passed the local market and walked right into this small and cozy waffle and fries! There is a bar stool section and few outdoor tables. It will get crowded fast, but in a good way.
There were two people manning the fort. One person was taking orders, the other working on the previous customer. Once the order was taken, the two immediately started cracking in the food. There was a bit of a wait with only 1 person ahead of me but I had time.
They have a surprising selection with the BEST fries I had ever had. Also, with unique sauces. Be warned, it's a carb fest but that's exactly what you'd come here for. Without disappointment, too! They have a novelty meal that is waffles topped with cream and chicken in the shape of a chicken. I would love to bring my niece and nephew here in the spring. They'd love it.
Also, the coffee?? ☕ Are you kidding me? So delicious!
It's small, but don't let that stop you from...
