Friture René: “Tradition, c’est l’avenir”!
Friture René is an institution in Brussels and far beyond. The name doesn’t do the place justice, as Friture René is much more than a simple frituur (fry shop)! Guests travel from far and wide to enjoy classic dishes in a timeless setting. This makes Friture René one of the benchmarks in Belgian bistronomy. The interior evokes the charm of old bistros. A beautiful bar, red-and-white checkered tablecloths, and Brussels-inspired decor create a nostalgic atmosphere.
At Friture René, most guests come for a great piece of meat or a generous pot of mussels, but the menu offers much more than that. As a starter, you can enjoy classic dishes like tomato with shrimp, mussels with garlic butter, fresh shrimp croquettes, or even a perfectly cooked omelette. Then, you can dive into the main event: the mussels, served in portions of 1.2 kg, are definitely worth trying. But the steaks and entrecôtes are also fantastic—and of course, the fries are equally exceptional! Choosing is difficult, and there’s only one solution: come back.
