Bistro de Eetkamer
This petite restaurant is one of Bruges' more impressive eateries. The seasonal menu is mainly Belgian-based but the chefs here give it a satisfying modern twist. With only a few tables and plenty of local business, be sure to book ahead.

Chagall
Checked olive banquettes, candles, shelves cluttered with knick-knacks and an upright piano make you feel like you're dining in a family home. Seafood, such as several variations on eel, is Chagall's specialty, but it also does daily meat specials and good deals on two- and three-course menus.

De Koetse
Restaurants on the Markt dish up the ubiquitous mussels and frites , but the quality and ambience can be trite and lacking. If you want both good mussels and attentive service, follow the locals here. Paling in 't groen (eel in spinach sauce), another Belgian speciality, also features.

Den Dyver
Not only are the seasonal dishes at this elegant restaurant individually paired with beers, they're also cooked in Belgium's favourite nectar (such as hare, turnip and cranberry ravioli in Oude Gueuze, served with a Petrus Winterbier). Three-, four- and five-course menus can be ordered with a beer accompanying each course. There's also the option of pairing with wines, but that would be missing the point.

Hertog Jan
Hail a taxi to experience Hertog Jan. About 3.5km west of the centre, this suburban restaurant is the current talk of gourmet circles. Expect French cuisine such as Limousin lamb and Bresse dove, or sample the works with the degustation menu.

Lokkedize
Good spot for a late-night bite. An open fire and moody music ensure return patronage. Meals are typically Mediterranean, such as meze or moussaka, and the kitchen stays open 'til midnight, sometimes later.

Nieuw Museum
So called because of the museum-like collection of brewery plaques, money boxes and other mementos of café life adorning the walls, this family-owned local favourite serves five kinds of dagschotel (dish of the day) for lunch (around €7 -12.50), and succulent meat cooked on a 17th-century open fire in the evenings.
-
Sint Barbe
Hidden away opposite St Anna church, this confident little restaurant offers a small selection of Belgian dishes, including meat, fish and vegetarian options. With modern décor, ultrafriendly staff and excellent prices, it's little wonder the locals have taken it to heart.
-
Tom's Diner
To the north of town, a little way out of the tourist centre and all the better for it. This whitewashed gabled corner house has a rustic interior and serves stylish modern-Belgian food at very affordable prices.
