The story
Brasserie Juste describes itself as an "eigentijdse en jonge brasserie" – a contemporary and young brasserie that holds deep respect for tradition. The kitchen follows a back-to-basics philosophy, focusing on French-Belgian cuisine with an unwavering eye for the quality of each product. Everything is made in-house, from stocks to sauces, and presented with a creative touch that elevates familiar flavours without straying from their roots.
A charcoal oven sits at the heart of the kitchen, imparting a distinct smokiness to many dishes. This technique gives meats, vegetables, and even certain sauces a unique depth that you won’t find in a standard brasserie. The result is a menu that feels both rustic and refined – honest cooking where the fire does much of the talking.
The wine list at Brasserie Juste is carefully curated to match the kitchen’s style. It offers enough variety to please both casual drinkers and serious enthusiasts, with a selection of wines by the glass and by the bottle that closely complements the food. The focus is on pairing rather than pomp, making each meal feel complete.
In 2026, Michelin awarded Brasserie Juste a Recommended distinction, noting its commitment to quality ingredients and skilled execution. The restaurant’s farm-to-table ethos and outdoor seating make it a welcoming spot in the quiet village of Dikkelvenne, where the pace slows and the food takes centre stage.
