A nice brunch … with the kids

05 August 2025

The perfect Sunday morning starts with an elaborate brunch. Gather the whole family round the table and have some bacon and eggs, or fruit salad, or yogurt with granola, or pancakes … or all of the above!

Brussels locals (known as “Brusseleirs”) really love a good brunch so many restaurants even offer it on Saturdays. Hit up these select addresses that cater to families with children.

La Brasserie du Prince d’Orange

Aside from its brunch, this Uccle institution has the advantage of offering games and a playground for your children, meaning everyone can fully enjoy their relaxing Sunday outing at Brasserie du Prince d'Orange. When?  On Sunday.

La Fabbrica 

At the heart of Tour & Taxis; La Fabbrica, this urban brasserie with an industrial look & feel serves up an exquisite Sunday brunch for the whole family. It offers an Italian-style buffet made up of fresh produce and homemade dishes that will delight customers of all ages. 

Are your children getting restless at the table? Don’t worry, the venue is very spacious. They can play and run around to their heart’s content without bothering you, in the immense Tour & Taxis Entrepôt Royal. The venue also has various activities to keep them occupied while you eat. They’re happy, you’re happy: win-win.

Chicago Café

Take time out at the Chicago Café, where locals and tourists enjoy sandwiches, burgers, salads and homemade cake all day long. (The cheesecake is to die for!). Whether you’re a fan of fish or meat, a vegetarian or even vegan, they offer brunches to suit all dietary needs.

The best thing of all about this friendly café is its cosy kids’ corner and the scrumptious children’s menu with its fun announcement: “If you clean your plate and Mum and Dad say it’s okay, you can have a free yoghurt with your kids’ meal (or an ice cream in sunny weather).” We love Chicago Café!

La Fabrique en Ville

This is a place to sit down and enjoy when the sun is out! La Fabrique en Ville is located in the heart of Egmont Park, a green cocoon in the middle of the city. The 100% homemade brunch, with a special children's menu, is offered as a large all-you-can eat buffet! With breads, jams, salads and small dishes, there's a large choice.

The must: play areas reserved for children! Upstairs, a games room just for them and outside, a huge park in which to unwind. What better way to let them have fun while you enjoy your brunch indoors or on the terrace

Garage-à-Manger

Looking for a trendy spot where you can enjoy fresh produce with your family? A natural extension of the Pêle-Mêle bookshop, the Garage-à-Manger offers local and organic cuisine. You'll find seasonal fruits and vegetables, local cheeses and cold cuts, as well as artisan wines and beers, and much more.  

Enjoy their "home-made" food, pastries and drinks in a skilfully designed space: books, a vintage caravan and sofas invite young and old to a comfortable break. But this "garage" offers much more than food and drink: it's also a meeting place, home to concerts, exhibitions, stand-up evenings, workshops and more.

Journal

Stockel has its own all-day eatery. At Journal, you can enjoy delicious and healthy brunches and lunches every day. They serve succulent vegetable dishes with a mix of roasted pumpkin, lentils, Jerusalem artichokes, mushrooms and other tasty treats. The puff pastry waffle with smoked salmon is to die for! Feel free to bring the kids, as they have their own dedicated safe space.

Chaudron

There's nothing quite like a blissful autumn walk in the picturesque Neerpede district of the commune of Anderlecht. Here, on the edge of the Pajottenland, you can stroll through fields or jog around the ponds. As of recently, you can also visit the Ferme du Chaudron for fresh vegetables and dairy products, a petting zoo and a restaurant. The circular and solidarity-based farm is a concept by the Gastrosophes collective. Here you can eat a healthy and high-quality brunch.
