Restaurant Le Zinneke. Brussels, Belgium

Restaurant Le Zinneke has been a Brussels favorite since 1956. Located in Schaerbeek, on the heights of northern Brussels, it is a warm and authentic place to enjoy Belgian cuisine.

The restaurant is famous for mussels. Here you can choose from 69 different recipes, all prepared in the traditional way. From classic marinière to creamy garlic or spicy curry, there is something for every taste. But the menu goes far beyond mussels. You will also find plenty of grilled beef and horse meats, Belgian specialties such as carbonade flamande or vol-au-vent, and a wide choice for vegetarians and vegans. Gluten-free and lactose-free options are also available.

Inside, the atmosphere is cosy and full of character. The walls are decorated with paintings and murals, giving the place a historic Brussels charm. Guests love the relaxed setting, where everything is cooked on site with mainly organic and local products. In summer, the terrace is open. On colder days, it is covered and heated so you can enjoy it all year round.

Le Zinneke also offers attractive set menus. You can compose your own three-course meal (starter, main, dessert) for €41.50, with some dishes carrying a small supplement. A special “Menu Moules” lets you enjoy mussels as the main dish, also with starter and dessert. For weekday visitors, a Lunch & Menu of the Week is available at €32, every day except Friday evening, Saturday evening, Sunday, and public holidays.

Le Zinneke is not just about food, but also about the experience. Many regulars come back for the friendly service, the generous portions, and the lively bistro spirit.

If you want to discover real Brussels flavors in a warm and welcoming place, Le Zinneke is a great choice. A true classic of the city, where tradition meets creativity at the table.
