The Be Point - Belgie

Maison Dandoy has a lot of hype around it in Brussels! We ran here as our first stop in town, and it was amazing. They have a huge menu of waffles to choose from it was really hard to make a decision. We sat upstairs for a while waiting for service and no one ever came over, so we ended up ordering ours to go and ate it outside. I think they would improve on the customer service, but the food really makes up for it. We definitely recommend checking it out and order something fun!

4.5/5 Located near the Grand Place. The line had already started around 6pm, but wasn't bad. The line seemed to be moving fairly slow despite the fact that I saw there were lots of waffles already made and under the heat lamps. My own waffle came out really quickly (before the two people in front of me), so maybe the slow down is if you are ordering a lot of toppings. My liege waffle was crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. Thinner than ones I have tried in America but delicious. Though liege waffles aren't usually served with toppings, I couldn't resist adding whipped cream as a topping. My only regret was not ordering a brussels waffle to try as well. There are a few tables outside to enjoy your waffles. The only downside was that the compostable forks were a bit flimsy.

We visiting on a Tuesday in the late afternoon. We waited about 10 minutes to be able to sit upstairs. If it wasn't for the rain we would have ordered to go or eat in their outdoor seating area. If you dine in, the menu prices increases a bit. Bathroom is located in the basement and doesn't look like a purchase is necessary. We ordered a liege waffle with a scoop of speculoos ice cream at 5:06pm and it came to our table at 5:14pm. The outer edges of the waffle was crispy while the rest of it was soft and chewy. Powdered sugar was placed under the waffle as opposed to it being dusted. With the speculoos ice cream it was a bit too sweet for us. Best to be enjoyed with tea or coffee. Total was 8.50 euro and they accept credit cards. Supposedly there's WiFi but when asked for the password the staff didn't know it.

Maison Dandoy is so good! Love their Brussels waffle, it is crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. We also tried the Liege waffle, however personally we love the Brussels waffle a lot more. On our last day in Brussels, we made sure to come back for one last waffle!

I thought I didn't like Belgium waffles, but after going to Maison Dandoy two days in a row, it turns out that I just don't like American Belgium waffles. The Belgium waffles at Maison Dandoy are super light and airy not at all like the thick bready waffles that I'm used to getting at home. The waffles are made to order and the strawberry with ice cream topping is the fantastic.
