I had such a beautiful experience at De Pistolei! The soup was truly something special—almost brought me to tears, as it reminded me of my childhood with every warm, comforting spoonful. Their Italian panini was fantastic, packed with fresh flavors, and the coffee was just perfect, rich and balanced. Such a cozy spot with food that feels like a warm hug. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a soulful meal in Brussels!

Best cheap sandwiches in town. They're tasty, big and filled to the brim. Would reccomend to get a takeaway sandwich for less than 7 euros

Very good authentic Belgian sandwiches either in standard baguette or in a pistolet. Very good place to get cheap and on-the-go lunch. Service is very good and personnel very friendly and accommodating!Walking distance from central station or from the Grand Place!

Our first meal after the flight, and a good one too. At that hour, nearly 3 PM, they only had sandwiches since the kitchen was closed. We decided on hot paninis, one with meatloaf, one chicken. It was good, they came with a side salad, and the meat was plentiful. I thought it would be enough to fill some that hasn't eaten since early morning, but it was. I do recommend the meatloaf panini. The service was really good and felt very authentic belgique.Also, to dine in, you have to pay extra, about 1 euro or so.

Great authentic Belgian sandwiches! You can take them to go or sit and be served very nicely. Great for breakfast, lunch or a snack on the go. They also have a selection of hot dishes and fries. All the police officers come here, so it's gotta be good!
