De Garre
About
Nestled in a hidden alley of Brugge’s historic centre, Staminee De Garre has been a local favourite since 1984. With a warm, intimate setting and a wide selection of more than 140 regional Belgian beers, the bar caters perfectly to both seasoned beer aficionados and casual visitors seeking a relaxed night out. The highlight of the menu is the house‑made Tripel van De Garre, a golden, high‑gisting ale that embodies the tradition of Brugge’s brewing heritage. In addition to an extensive beer list, the menu includes classic Belgian snacks such as croque‑monsieurs, sardelonnies, and hearty cheese plates, creating a complete culinary experience. The bar’s interior is a characterful blend of wooden furnishings, a well‑lit counter, and vintage beer labels, fostering a convivial atmosphere that encourages conversation and camaraderie. Live music sessions are held regularly, drawing a young, energetic crowd that revels in the relaxed vibe. Whether you’re stopping by for a quick drink after a day of sightseeing or settling in for a leisurely evening, De Garre offers an authentic slice of Brugge’s social scene. The establishment welcomes guests from 12:00 p.m. Thursday through Sunday and from 11:30 a.m. on Saturday. Mornings and early afternoons on Monday and Tuesday are reserved for a more intimate experience. No reservations are accepted, but arriving early during peak periods ensures a quick entry.
