"The centrally located restaurant on Market Square specializes in seafood. A good place to enjoy classics like mussels with fries."

Kiersten Rich

"A thing that you absolutely cannot miss on a trip to Bruges: Moules Frites (mussels and French fries) at Breydel-De Coninck."

Josh Barrie

"There’s more to Bruges than moules frites, although the steaming pots of mussels at Breydel-De Coninck make for perfect pit stops to refuel after hours of strolling."

"Breydel-De Coninck is the go-to address for mussels (when in season; expect a large portion)."

Karim Beerahee

"Famous for its seafood, mussel season is the time to guarantee yourself a perfect plate of moules. And if you’re feeling adventurous why not try their Moules Aphrodisiaque – Oh la la!"

Ruby Stern

"But the star of the meal, the day, and perhaps the decade was the mussels provencal. They came in a huge pot, which you would be a fool not to share, and we’re nobody’s fools. They also came, like all mussels over there, with a free side of fries. Also amazing."

Sarah Gristwood

"An unpretentious but remarkably central venue which is the place in the city for mussels – effectively Belgium’s national dish."

Susan Gough Henly

"Feast on Belgium’s iconic steamed mussels, served every which way, at Breydel De Coninc."

Vasundhara Chauhan

"Then came the even larger pan, of mussels in the shell, simmered in cream and white wine. The mussels were fresh and plump and the sauce a mere complement, not a masker of flavour."

Emma Thomson

"Run by a local family for over 50 years, this is the place to try mussels & chips in Brugge."
