Your hosts, Thierry (a cross between Billy Connolly and Dartanian) and Sophie, are very nice people and go out of their way to make your evening special.
Great food, great company, great value.
The Howell's highly recommend it.

Set in the heart of the old town just of the main square Arthies has has good food, nice ambience and a great host and hostess in Arthie and his wife.
My Wife and I had Curried Mussels and a goat cheese salad. The salad in particular was excellent. Just don't ask Arthie for mayonaise with your fries or do and see his reaction. Also, check out the local beer called Zot.

A delightful experience with fantastic food from a host and hostess who obviously take great pride in their customer experience. The food is of an exceptionally high standard and our only regret is that Arthie's is not in our home town in England.
It is worth returning to Brugge just to eat there. A real WOW!

Recommended by our hotel, and they were right! Arthies, located just off the main square, was a delightful experience. The food was exquisite and entertaining - delightful combinations of fresh, unexpected, and tasty ingredients - creative success! Each dish was better than the last. Thierry, the owner and chef, could not have been more cordial. The ambiance was charming, and the prices were quite reasonable. If only Thierry would open a restaurant in NYC! AND share his recipies!

We booked a table after reading the reviews on VT but were very disappointed. Perhaps the chef was having a bad day, but the food was poorly thought out (fruit + salad + spring onions with everything?) and poorly cooked. The children's meal was also "yuk". Surprisingly for Bruges, even the fries weren't good.
Eating outside seemed like a good idea but the courtyard is surrounded by a modern hotel block - not quite the romantic ancient feel we hoped for. Guess we were optimistic anyway - can you be romantic with a 7 year old for company?

Behind the beautiful 17th Century facade, typical of so many beautiful Bruges buildings, there is a real surprise waiting at Arthie's! Modern, minimalist, stylish and fantastic food at a great price. The service is so professional and very friendly..........nothing is too much trouble!
In the summer there is a super outdoor area and our recent winter visit just confirmed this as our favourite restaurant in Bruges.
The fish dishes are to be recommended. Fresh, imaginatively prepared and served and to be savoured. The fillet steak was absolutely fantastic.........so my husband informed me.
Everything about our meal was just perfect! Theme: Eclectic/InternationalPrice: US$31-40 » Currency ConverterComparison: about averageAddress: WollenstraatDirections: Just off the Clocktower SquareWebsite: www.arthies.com

It is rare, especially in an ancient city like Brugge, that a resaurant can be at once unashamedly modern, stylish and incredibly friendly. Thierry, Sophie & their team manage to make all visitors feel like long lost friends. Food covers all the usual Flemish favourites including mussels, steaks, fish & salads, plus snacks like croques, pasta, & pancakes. Everything is perfectly cooked and beautifully presented.
Following a move just down the road early in 2007, they now have more space and an outside terrace adjoining Martens Hotel.
Everything is good, & stylishly presented. I usually go for fish, or something off the specials menu.

This was a flying trip to Bruges, and having walked round the usual tourist sights during the morning it was nice to get slightly away from the crowds into this little oasis of calm. As we entered the restaurant we were warmly greeted in a variety of languages, and listening to others being welcomed, it is apparent that several languages are spoken fluently. The menu will appeal to everyone, tempting even those who have tested the local Belgian chocolate to excess.
We discovered the restaurant by chance and as is often the case chance discoveries are fortunate. A very short walk from the heart of the tourist area also means that the cost is much more reasonable.
After much deliberation we both decided to have Steak Rocquefort, I hear you saying 'Typical English!!!' but the steak was just beautiful. It was served on big white platters with a crisp salad and looked as good as it tasted.
Does being English mean that we think we are the experts on what a good steak should be? If so then I would say that this was a great meal. If not why not give it a try yourself?
There was a differnce in our choice for dessert... one of us opted for the ice cream with caramel sauce, while the other indulged in more chocolate in the form of the home made chocolate mousse. Both were excellent, although I have to say the mousse was pure indulgence! Theme: LocalComparison: less expensive than averageAddress: WollenstraatDirections: Just off the Clocktower Square

Wandering the streets of Bruges for the first time one chilly day last week, we were increasingly in urgent need of lunch, and were beginning to get that sinking feeling that we'd have no choice but to settle for one of the usual & tacky tourist traps of the sort to be found in depressingly large (& expensive) quantities in any city centre.
But then... we stumbled upon Arthie's, and all our fears evapourated ! A great ambience, with clientele both local and foreign (like us), warm in every respect, discreet but not stuffy, and a very friendly welcome from the charming staff. The 'house red', a Cabernet Sauvignon from the south of France, was excellent and distinctly more-ish. As for the superb menu, my wife enjoyed a delicious and generous salad, whilst I devoured the excellent mussels & frites; when it came to dessert, we were simply unable to resist the (stunning) hot chocolate Sabayon -- which alone provides a good enough reason to re-visit Bruges at very regular intervals in the future.
All in all, an excellent experience, which fortified us sufficiently to return to our explorations of this truly enchanting city for the rest of the day. And such is our apparent lack of imagination (or perhaps the alluring quality of Arthie's cuisine) that we returned for lunch again the next day before reluctantly catching our train home.

We dined at Arthies based on recommendations on this site. While we had no problem with the food, which was of a high standard, we did have a problem that they would not serve tap water and we had to pay 8 euros for bottled water. In addition a dessert that we did not have appeared on the bill. The service was also not up to par as there was only one waiter for about eight tables. Perhaps we were there on a bad night, but it was not what we were expecting.
