Artisanal pralines, works of art
Located in souvenir street (Katelijnestraat), this is one of the few, if not the only, original shop left in this buzzling tourist area. The pralines made here, in the back of the shop, are little works of art! Expensive, but worth the price. It's Elise who runs the shop, and chef Kristoff making these pralines in the back of the shop.

't Lammetje
Family run restaurant
On Huidevettersplein, the Tanner's Square (the most horrible square of medieval Bruges), you now find quaint little restaurants. 't Lammetje is one of our favourites with all the dishes famous in Flemish cuisine, including the typical grandmother's dish "Hespenrolletjes" (chicory rolled in ham, drowned in cheese sauce, with cheese gratinated on top), mussles and signature dish Lamb's rack, on the menu.

Definitely going to judge all future tours against this one. Pascal was so great and you could feel his love for the city in the tour. We had so much fun with this tour and definitely walked away feeling like we’d gotten the best of Brugge.

We had a great walking tour with Ray. It was very informative and hit all the must see spots. Ray was a super knowledgeable and fun guy to walk with. I would definitely recommend this to anyone traveling to Bruges.
FAQ
What does it mean? A free tour?
It means that it's a Pay What You Want tour. At the end of the tour, you decide what the tour is worth to you and whether you want to reward the guide accordingly (and according to your budget). That way everyone can enjoy a tour.
Do the tours run when it rains?
Yes they do! If we were affraid of a little rain that half of the time we'd have to cancel our tours. Instead we adapt! With some light rain: we try to fix an umbrella for the participants that forgot their own, walk faster and relax once we've found shelter again. With heavy rain: we make sure everyone is properly dressed for bad weather or divert into buildings.
