Le Phare du Kanaal in Brussels: Creative Workspaces

Absolutely brilliant! We had a big event here and the team were superb - so sweet and friendly, and the food was perfect. The shiitake cheese toasties were to die for. We love how ethical/sustainable it is, too, and great value for what you get. The space is also gorgeous. We will for sure be back!

The atmosphere of the breakfast pub itself is very pleasant. We were disappointed with the service after about 15 minutes of waiting to place an order no one came to us, we also had to get the menu ourselves. You write down the names for your order on cards, this was also mixed up. The service is very chaotic. The food looks delicious but we only liked the toast and the egg. There are a lot of things to improve in this place.

Friendly service.

I really liked the hot chocolate. I wasn't a big fan of the homemade ice tea, but maybe that's on me because I have been trying many homemade ice teas at places all over and I've actually never liked any; I should order something else 😅

​

The food was great! I really liked the grilled cheese, the potatoes and bacon, and the fregola. The pancakes could have used something extra as I found them a bit lackluster.

​

The price is reasonable.

​

You get a small flag with your name on it, which I thought was funny.

​

I'll definitely be coming back.

We had to sit outside, so the recommendation of other people to make a reservation during the weekend should be taken seriously.

Brunch eaw nothing special and there was little flexibility to máje any changes to their concept. Which is 5 little meals for brunch - not possible to order anything else than brunch. Coffe was decent. Service Friendly, but it took ages.

Chose this place for my lunch, seeing good reviews. I was very disappointed, the only thing I could choose here for lunch was soup. As a drink I took iced matcha. It was brought fast and the matcha was nice, so nothing bad here. However soup was very watery with big clumps of something, I guess it was supposed to be cream soup but was not mixed properly. Was served with bread, so the only thing makes you less hungry was bread but come on. You don't come to a cafe for lunch to eat just bread. Adding photos.

Spent 13,5€, left hungry and dissapointed. Had to go for another lunch.

P.S. changed it to 1 star. As from my bank account they took 13.5€, but on the check they gave me it is 12.5€. Feels like a scam.
