Arthies! What can you say about this great restaurant, I have had the delight of having eaten here 5 times in the last year. My last visit was on the 28th December 2006, having spent the afternoon enjoying a festive Brugge it was time to eat. The restaurant looks warm and inviting from outside. Inside Thierry and Sophie make you feel like old friends meeting up again, the decor is wonderful, the menu is full of great dishes, choices of meat,fish and pasta to satisfy any pallet. When waiting for your meal to arrive at your table you can enjoy drinks, my favorite being the local white beer whilst. listening to Thierrys great choice of music. I cannot wait to eat there again! The Crazy Englishman.
Every dish I have eaten at Arthies has been great, but if I had to pick one dish it would be the Rack of Lamb served with a beer sauce. The lamb is always fresh and tender. the sauce is unusual but compliments the lamb perfectly.This dish is also served with great tasting vegtables and potatoes. A Winner!. If you have a sweet tooth I would have a Crepe for desert they are fantastic.

Bruges is full of restaurants, some of which look very formal and perhaps a little expensive. However, tucked just off the market square is a real gem - Arthies. I have been there several times now on visits to Bruges and the food is always very good and well presented. The restaurant is stylishly laid out and the owners always welcoming and make you feel at home. More importantly the bill will not see you needing to remortgage your house! The food is a mix of Belgian and French styles with a modern touch (my favourite is the ostrich steak) and is always tasty with good portions.
My girlfriend's favourite dish is the Mussels with handcut frites - the mussels are good quality and the sauce very good. Another favourite is the king prawns in home made garlic butter sauce to start which is heavenly. Finally the Dame Blanche sweet with real chocolate sauce - say no more!!

Arthies is the kind of Bistro that you used to find in Paris. Full of charm, atmosphere, local patrons and that je ne sais pas.... Situated in the very heart of Bruges, Arthies is the kind of untouristlike place that the discerning tourist is always hoping to find. Exquisite gastronomy and impeccable service is provided by the charming hosts Sophie and Thierry Wille. An intimate and romantic ambiance, superb menu and beautiful decor all conspire to provide a very special dining experience. A real gem which we happily discovered on Christmas Day.
The Guinea Fowl is simply the best I have ever tasted. Cooked to perfection, accompanied by a delicious mash and salad, it was presented with real originality and flair. The standard of gastronomy at Arthies puts many a more expensive establishment to shame.

This was our second trip to Brugge (Bruges) and we headed straight back, to Arthies. The food here on our first trip 18months ago was 1st rate, and some how it's gotten even better! The eating experience at Arthies is a very relaxed one, but with fantastic food, great surroundings and friendly efficient staff. Being just off the Martet square it is alittle pricey, but not expensive... once you taste the food you'll not care how much is costs ;-)
I had local Prawns in a Light Curry sauce for starter, followed by Arthies Fillet Steak and Iced Cream. My other half had Veal... all our dished were piping hot, just the right amount and delicious!

I would highly recommend Arthie's restaurant, it was the second visit to Brugge and the second visit to this restaurant. We have had an excellent meal both times and would not hesitate in recommending it to future visitors. The service was also first class with a lovely ambience.
The Brill was absolutely outstanding, its the most tastiest white fish dish I've had for a long time and also the nicest meal for a long time, bearing in mind we do eat out a lot.

I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone! The staff were cold and unapproachable, the champagne on the menu was out of stock (except for the most expensive one), the rice in the sushi was so overcooked it was served as a mash, with old tough fish on top of it, the steaks which were ordered pink arrived so well done I could have resoled a pair of shoes with them (after a thorough inspection they finally agreed to replace the order), the five in our party, as a result of all of this, all had our meals at different times during the evening, the 'manager' was snooty and aloof when we politely pointed out our disappointment and all this for a lot of euros. We informed the reception in our hotel about our experience and they told us that they were not surprised as more guests had complained about this restaurant. Brugge is the most wonderful place with friendly people and a great atmosphere. What a shame it has a restaurant called Arthies to drag down this historic town.
Needless to say, not one of them. Leave a Comment

by sarahharper When we visited Brugge for a weekend break recently and were looking for a good place to eat dinner, we were so surprised to find a bistro restaurant named Arthies. It was situated just off the Market Square in the centre of the city. We were a party of four with a surname so similar that we could hardly avoid eating there. Mr. and Mrs. Arthie were amazed to find Dr. and Mrs. Arthey making a reservation for dinner. And we were so pleased that we did for we were warmly welcomed as we arrived and it was not just because of our name as we noted that other diners were similarly welcomed. The restaurant is small enough to ensure that everyone receives personal attention with a smile and a rapport is quickly established between host and guests. The patron, who served us, reminded us of the comedian Billy Connelly and he had a similar sense of humour, which made the evening really enjoyable.
We chose not to select a starter despite being sorely tempted. Our experience is that size of portions of main courses and desserts mean that including a starter can make us uncomfortably full by the end of the meal. A speciality of the house is mussels, which come in a variety of different ways. Meat dishes, some with beer sauces, included rack of lamb but we decided to order sole meunière for three of us, and Arthie’s pasta (a spicy spaghetti) for one. The fish, a favourite of ours, was excellent and was served with salad leaves and a separate dish of French fries. All this was accompanied by a wine from a list which was not long but contained a good selection of whites and reds. Of course, we had to try the Arthie’s house white which was most enjoyable. There was a good selection of desserts to complete the meal and again pancakes were a speciality of the house. Two of us chose pancakes, one a coupe caramel and one apple tart with ice cream and calvados. The portion of calvados was so generous that all four of us enjoyed the aroma as it wafted over the table and the taste was delicious. We all agreed that we had had a great night out with excellent food served in pleasant surroundings with a very friendly atmosphere.
