86 I'm not sure why so many people say it's like an English pub - it says Belgian or Dutch café toe, through and through. Friendly staff, 16 beers on tap, not cheap but not pricey either. There's not many 'new' beers but plenty new to me. What's not to like? Well, OK, the background music maybe... (-: |
90 Nice place at downtown Ostende. Looks loke an English Pub and has an excellent selection of Belgian beers. Also a nice selection of beers from abroad. Still 16 on tap. Staff needs some moments to get warm, but then very friendly and communicative. Dinner is nice, prices still fair. Always worth a visit. |
92 Café in the style of an English pub but with service at the table. The beer selection of around 300 beers, of which 16 from tap, is impressive. They also serve typical Flemish/Dutch snacks like bitterballen or kibbeling. As far as I understand one can also have a proper meal here.
The waitress does her job well, but as always in Flanders I don't know which language I should use with locals. I speak German, French and English, unfortunately no Flemish/Dutch, which often results in messy dialogues, like with the waitress at the Botteltje.
By the way for a place with that many beers it still has reasonable prices. |

70 Visited twice in two years. Bit of a mixed experience. Tap list is not interesting for the average Ratebeerian. Bottle list is quite extensive, but you'll have to take a very close look (and the descriptions are a mess). Moreover, the prices are too high, or a couple of bottles are already depleted. Then don't leave them on your menu...
But, it has a nice atmosphere, a bit like Cambrinus in Bruges. Food is good, and you'll leave with a full stomach. Try the calamares as appetizer and the burger as main course. Some of the staff are young and friendly, others not so much, and not knowledgeable in general. Anyway, just give it a try, it's still the place to go to in Ostend. |
78 Visited on 16/11/2018. Lively atmosphere in a nice cosy (however big) pub. Bar tables, normal tables, sofa, .... Beer list is big and nice, not extraordinary. However was able to find some beers I wouldn't find in a lot of other places so that's OK. Taplist is quite commercial. Would like to see some special ones there. Didn't try food or other thing. Would go back when in Ostende again and luckily my wife liked it too! |
86 By far the best beer place in town. The 16 taps is not what you come here for. Well, there are some decent beers on, but also some boring stuff (Leffe, Guinness...). The real treat here is the bottle list. About 300 different bottles with a lot of very interesting stuff - all Belgian. I went three times and the service varied a lot. It can be rather slow and unattentive but on my last visit I think they finally found out, that I'm into beers and I got a very fine service. Prices are decent. The place also carries lots of spirits and cocktails (they claim they have 75 different kinds of genever). The food is really good |

86 A large, almost English feeling pub with a large amount of Belgian beers. While the vast majority is well known, I was stil able to pick out a couple of (local) ticks. More importantly, the atmosphere is great, with really friendly staff, very laid back, surprisingly good food and very okay (especially for the area) prices. We really enjoyed our stay here. Friendly staff an locals, knowledge enough. yes, they can improve their beer list a bit, but with so many good Belgians you could also argue there’s not much left to wish for if you don’t care about ticks. |
