I am amazed at the last review - went here last night on business - food was absolutely superb, service a little slow perhaps, but just meant we felt no rush. And maybe it is because I am from London but I thought for the standard of food the prices were very fair - especially the 3 courses set menu.... More

The decor is truly unique, very well put together and an enjoyable space to be in. Unfortunately the food is far behind. Bland, unimaginative, at times even poor. The ingredients didn't look nor taste particularly fresh nor high quality. It was far too expensive considering what you got in your plate. The service is over the top. The waiters stand... More

One of the best places in Antwerp - and thats saying something. I always try to visit when in the city. It's a little off the beaten track, but worth the taxi ride. The old pumping equipment is still in situ and the restaurant that surrounds the pumping "pit" has a tremendous atmosphere for such a large open building. The... More

An old pumping station magnificently restored. If you want a truly excellent meal in a magnificent building with views of cargo ships gliding by, don't miss this! This was probably one of the most remarkable meals I have ever had. Highly recommended! More

First of all, the place itself is pretty amazing. I would definately recomend it for dinner as the food was very good and the selection was seasonal. In addition, they have a very impressive wine list with wines from around the world! Service was friendly. More

The portions are not big enough but the taste is awesome. THis is a special place, an old pump house, designed very well and the service is also high level. Parking is available (free). More

Somewhere in the docks this large restaurant is one of the best in particular for groups and business in all of Antwerp. The kitchen is visible from the outside and the original pumps in the cellar add that something to make this a real recommendation for the town! More

The building itself is really quite impressive, especially the pumping system that has remained intact in the open air basement (easily viewed when walking in the door). The design of the interior is modern but still very warm and lends itself to a wonderful meal on a chilly winter night or the terrace for cool drinks on a summer evening.... More
