Maurice Antwerpen – Modern French Cuisine in Brasschaat | Michelin Recommended

A home away from home in Brasschaat

Just outside Antwerpen, in the quiet suburb of Brasschaat, Maurice welcomes guests with the promise of feeling right at home. The restaurant is run by chef Karl Ave and host Kaatje De Blick, whose shared vision is built on warmth, ease, and genuine hospitality.

The kitchen focuses on seasonal ingredients and local produce from the region. On the menu, classic French preparations sit alongside more creative dishes, offering a subtle journey through different culinary traditions. This is modern French cuisine at its most approachable – what the team calls "no fuss gastronomy, served with a smile." The style is refined without pretension, letting the quality of each ingredient speak for itself.

The interior is warm and domestic, creating an atmosphere where conversation and enjoyment come naturally. During warmer months, the garden terrace adds a further layer of charm, making it a favourite spot for lunch or dinner.

Maurice has earned a Michelin Recommended distinction, a recognition that aligns perfectly with its philosophy: thoughtful cooking, precise service, and a setting that puts guests at ease from the moment they arrive. Whether you come for a midday meal or an evening out, the experience is consistent, personal, and quietly memorable.
