The story
Just outside the historic center of Brugge, in Sint-Andries, Floris brings a refined yet welcoming approach to dining. Chef Floris, with over a decade of experience, leads a kitchen defined by its respect for the product and the people who produce it. The restaurant’s philosophy is rooted in a product-driven kitchen that honors local farmers and North Sea fishermen, a commitment that has earned it a place among Michelin’s recommended addresses.
The menu changes with the seasons and the market’s daily catch, offering a contemporary take on Modern French cuisine. Whether you choose the lunch formula at €39, the multi-course seasonal menu, or à la carte, each dish reflects careful sourcing and precise execution. Standout ingredients like white asparagus from Klerken, hand-peeled shrimp, turbot, and Anjou pigeon appear in compositions that balance freshness and technique. The seasonal menu, for example, might feature makreel lisette with avocado and beet, or kalfslende with peas and morels.
The atmosphere is informal enough for a weekday lunch yet polished enough for a special evening. During good weather, the cozy inner terrace opens for aperitifs, lunch, or dinner. Floris also offers private dining for groups and a selection of “bites to share” at the bar, such as the classic garnaalkroket or a delicate oeuf mayo. The wine list is thoughtfully paired to each course, and the service aims for a seamless, memorable experience.
With its consistent focus on seasonal, locally sourced ingredients and elegant presentation, Floris has quietly become a destination for those seeking genuine Modern French cuisine in the Bruges area.
