De Stove

A hidden gem in a quiet alley close to the main square. Pork cheek stew and fish of the day were superb. Nice wines too!

Our favourite meal in Bruges. Food quality and service were amazing! Would recommend to anyone visiting Bruges, a real gem.

Stumbled upon this cute little spot on a small ally and was thrilled with the experience! The food was fabulous and the service perfect. I was shocked to discover at the end of the evening they had only been open 1 week. Very impressed and highly recommend!

We have been many years before when under different management. However, we still really enjoyed our time and the food. We will certainly return

A very cute little place right in the centre of Bruges. Everything we tried was delicious and well executed. The place itself is charming. Beware of how much you might order since the portions are quite big. Definitely recommended!

Very lovely restaurant in town. If you search the area there are tons of fancy places that costs a fortune (not a fan when you have young children!) This restaurant is reasonably priced, food is definitely fine quality, i think it fits us well. The menu does not have a lot of choices, but every single dish is amazing! I can say it because there were 5 main courses on the menu, and we ordered 4 of them :) We also tried the scallop apetizer, so good that i wish i can go back again now that i am writing about it!

Excellent, just the perfect spot to escape the tourist restaurants only a few steps away. The talented chef keeps a tight menu of excellent choices, it was the highlight of our dining in Bruges. I had the perfectly cooked Dover sole menuire and my husband the Raj of venison, both delightful. The wild game croquettes were a dreamy cloud inside crisp bread g and the grilled scallops a dream. The half bottles of wine were a perfect way to enjoy the meal in the cozy quiet space. Felt like dinner in someone’s home and what a treat it was. Be sure to reserve well in advance, all walk ins were turned away one after the next.

I had sole for lunch. It was catch of the day and cooked to perfection. The server was extremely friendly and helpful. I had a great meal. Highly recommended.

Make a reservation! Even if the restaurant is not full, they will turn you down without a reservation to make room for their other customers who did. The restaurant is ran by 2 people and the lady in the front is very nice. Scallop Risotto - delicious! Risotto is cooked to perfection and the scallops are fresh and tasty. Sea bass - only order if you're good with eating skin! It requires all of the dish to be good. If you eat only the meat it will be bland, the seasoning is mostly on the skin! It's a great dish and I enjoyed it. Lamb fillet - could've used a little more seasoning. I found it a little bland but the scalloped potatoes it came with was awesome. It's a small restaurant right next to all the touristy places but it had a Brugge home feel. I would definitely come back.

Had an unbelievable night here. Great food! It was nice but still felt homey. Would highly recommend to anyone stopping in Bruges. Service was fantastic and everything was fresh.

De Stove was our favorite restaurant in Brugges. We were there in October for 3 days and had made a reservation in advance after reading some excellent reviews. The husband/wife team run the small restaurant with the husband doing all the cooking and the wife meeting, greeting and serving the customers. The night we were there an adorable granddaughter was helping out. My husband and I shared an amazing shrimp appetizer, and we both ordered the lamb filet which was seasoned to perfection and absolutely delicious. We saved room for dessert, which was ice cream and the famous Belgian chocolate sauce. We were in Paris and Amsterdam before and after Brugges, and we still talk about the great meal at de Stove.
