New Year Eve in Bruges 2015/2016 Restaurant Menus

Cataclysm

(See also my articles on New Year’s Eve in Belgium and New Year’s Eve in Bruges for more general information).

Recently I’ve had a lot of requests for recommendations and suggestions on where to eat in Bruges on New Years Eve (Flemish- oudejaarsavond or la SaintSylvestre). As I’ve said before, we’ve never eaten out in Bruges on New Year, so can’t make any recommendations from personal experience. However, seeing as so many people have asked I thought it’d be worthwhile doing a bit of online research and seeing what I can find out. Please remember I’ve spent my own time doing this research- therefore although I’ve included addresses and websites you’ll have to look them up yourself for further contact details and exact menus. One recommendation I CAN make is to book up as soon as the restaurant have a menu published. It is also important to remember that although they are usually expensive (approx. €100 per person) they do often include -on top of food- wine, champagne and sometimes an afterparty, so it’s usually worth checking out exactly what’s included.

If anyone has any more to add to the list please comment below and I’ll make sure yours is added too (book up before you tell me though!!). Also if anyone hears that a restaurant listed is fully booked let me know.

The following restaurants in Bruges city centre either have a New Year’s Eve menu published online already for 2015-16 OR are highly like to.

As I said, if you have any extra information, updates or anything contradictory to what I’ve said please let me know! Restaurants and bars are also welcome to contact me. I will not respond to any personal requests for recommendations, but if I get enough asking for the same thing I am happy to do a bit of research! All of the above information is a result of such requests- just an afternoon’s research put together to try to help others.
