Very homely and cosy pub/resturant, great beer and good confort food.Review
Food was good but there was a sort of diners' apartheid in that all the foreigners were put in one inside room which was not the "real" restaurant as far as I was concerned. Good waiters though.Review
In't Spinnekopke - very interesting restarant and very traditonally Belgium. Night we went was very busy so had to wait in the kitchen until table was ready. (Free canapees and beer given in compensation). Excellent food and beer - really extraordinary. Interesting service - a little rushed and very sardonic. Front is a traditional bar and tables are in a room behind the kitchen - lovely decor and a real bustle. Recommend highly but do book or you are unlikely to be seated.Visitors
