This session was a great experience for everyone in our group. We had a good time laughing as my husband had very little cooking experience. We sampled 3 different beers from Belgium and then used one in the waffle recipe. Waffles surprisingly turned out good (even with some eggshells!!). Would recommend for people looking for something to do other than sightseeing around Bruges.

This activity was so much fun. Franz was awesome - did a great job of introducing us to Belgian beer and helping us step by step work through the waffles recipe. We had a great time.

This experience was absolutely AMAZING! We had so much fun tasting different Belgium beers and learning a little about each. The waffle making experience was also great. We learned how to properly make Belgium waffles. This was the best waffle I’ve ever had. And they give you the recipe. We also met some really cool traveled and shared many laughs. The instructor was INCREDIBLE. He was very knowledgeable, equipped and funny too. I 💯 recommend this experience

Waffles and Beer and FUN!

Heather_B, Jan 2026

Well worth it in every way! We thoroughly enjoyed our time with our host Michelle. She shared many interesting and fun details about the experience, Bruges itself, and her personal story. The activity was jam-packed and extremely well organized. The facilities were lovely, clean, and very comfortable. It was our favourite activity on our 10 day trip! Great for a family, adults, couples ... well done!

Fun class!

Great activity

Fantastic time learning about the local beers while making delicious waffles! I would add this as a must do!

Beers and Waffles and Fun! Oh My!!

Steven_K, Oct 2025

My wife scheduled this event and I wondered; how does savory beer match up with sweet Bruges waffles? The answer? Very Well! Köen led us on a journey of beer, waffle, and Bruges cuisine as we tasted a variety of beers while preparing our waffles. The end result was a tasty delight complemented by local Belgian brews. My wife enjoy and take cooking classes for fun and this was an all time fav. Highly recommend!

Disappointed with vendor

MaryAnn_S, Sep 2025

If you are on a cruise and the port closes they will not give you a credit or refund your $. I do not recommend this provider as they would not consider a refund.

Beware of Inflexible tour operator

Cristina_D, Sep 2025

***This review is regarding the inflexibility of Viator and the tour operator-not the tour itself***. Unfortunately we were unable to attend. We were coming to Zeebrugge on Princess Cruise Lines from Southampton. Due to hazardous weather with high winds causing dangerous sailing conditions, the cruise line elected to cancel our embarkation on day 1, and we spent the night in the Southampton port instead, and yeah it was as fun as it sounds. The cruise line did not inform the passengers until after we boarded. Because of the weather, the berth the ship was supposed to be in was moved and they lacked access to all security lines for embarkation- thus delaying us getting to our stateroom, where we found a type memo on Princess letterhead informing us of the cancellation of our stop. Our tour was scheduled for 130pm the following day and I contacted Viator immediately about the change. At this point it was approximate 215pm (45 mins outside the cancelation window). I uploaded supporting documents to Viator about the change in itinerary and the tour operator refused to work with us and we lost our money on the tour. It is incredibly disappointing that neither Viator nor the tour operator offered any support whatsoever due to circumstances beyond our control. This was going to be the highlight of our day in Zeebrugge. Again, I’m sure the activity itself was fun and delicious, so this is all about the tour operator and Viator inflexibility, so–good for you, tour operator in sticking to the fine print.

Great Workshop & Great Instructor

Brianna_S, Sep 2025

This was a fantastic experience and our instructor (I forget her name) was amazing. She was so informative about the city and provided a great experience for us. We sampled different beers, along with making waffles. The batch even made a bunch of extras! It was also intimate where there were a ton of people in the workshop so it worked very well! I’d recommend this experience to everyone!

Dog friendly! Wow!

Eleanor_W, Sep 2025

An absolute must when in Bruges! Supper dog friendly as well so we didn’t have to leave our pup in the hotel. Our group was great!

Best birthday experience

Beer and Waffles

Very good event. It was well organized and the host was extremely good at what he does. The perfect mix of beer and waffles in Bruges.

A must do in Brugge

Stephen_G, Sep 2025

What a tremendous experience! Our host Brecht was great, very personable, and had a great sense of humor. The beer choice was excellent and the waffles were really good. A must do.

Very enjoyable...

Carol_J, Sep 2025

Very enjoyable experience. The waffles were amazing and the beer good. The host was friendly and made the whole experience fun. Would definitely recommend this.

Great interactive culinary experience!

Nancie_S, Aug 2025

This experience was exactly as described, and perfect for us, as we were here on a cruise stop with very limited time. 90 min start to finish, and our “guide” Koen was entertaining and informative and spoke perfect English. He led us through the process of making our own waffles while we enjoyed 3 different Belgian beers. Fun and delicious!

Amazing! We had a great...

Waffle bliss, beautiful history and laughter in Brugge

urvi_p, Jul 2025

Absolutely fantastic waffle and beer experience in Brugge! Our host was incredibly knowledgeable about both the waffle-making process and the city's rich history. What made it truly special was the perfect blend of humor and expertise - made the experience both fun and memorable for my child and me. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a unique and engaging experience in Brugge. Five stars isn't enough!

Waffles n Beer

Robert_W, Jul 2025

Absolutely worth it We had a blast Stefan was great , we made more waffles than we could eat and drank as much beer as we wanted

Waffle making class!

Andrea_Z, Jun 2025

Best experience! The waffles were amazing and so fun to make! The beer was also so fun to try with different stories behind each beer! The instructor was so kind and made the experience so much better! Would highly recommend!

Awesome

Stephen_D, Jun 2025

Must do in Belgium

Courtney_T, Jun 2025

This waffle and beer workshop was such a fun and unique experience! We got to taste a variety of delicious Belgian beers—each with its own flavor and story—and then rolled up our sleeves to make our own waffles from scratch. Mixing the batter ourselves made it feel extra hands-on, and the final result was absolutely delicious (crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside!). They even gave us the recipe at the end so we can try to recreate the magic at home. Highly recommend this workshop for anyone looking to combine classic Belgian flavors with a bit of fun and learning!
