De Boterhal

Ziet er goed uit, bier is best prijzig, wel veel keus.

Visited with Caesar and completely agree with his review. Nice looking interior, looks like an old tavern indeed. Their own beers: bad, really bad. Unfortunate to say but they were so bad they should be ashamed to have this on tap and they should be even more ashamed of their prices for this crap! Avoid unless desperate for the ticks.

Beautiful interior of a medieval tavern. But thats about the only thing that is good Im afraid. Their own beers are basicly horrible, buttery and vegetables. Served in dirty glassware. Also, way way way overpriced. Almost 5 euros for an own brew is simply a crime. Avoid.

Big bar, beatiful decoration, old style with a modern twist. with some of their own beers brewed at place, in "St. Joris Brouwerij", located in the basement (at least they said so). Centrally located, big terrace, seems that is more focused in eating, and beer is just there because people need to drink something. Weak house beers, at least what we tried, with some other usual suspects on tap, mainstream ones if i remind well.

Update Jan’14: scores reduced for Service and Value. Many beers have risen significantly in price in recent months. There are one or two good staff working here but on the whole the service is really poor. Some barstaff actively avoid eye-contact. ----------------- Original review:I’ve visited many times over the last 6 months and have mixed experiences. Positive: Pricing is generally low, nice interior, broad selection, 5 rotating taps/guests available as tasters, can pay with ’pin/cashcard’. Negative: Often very busy, the layout means it difficult to hang around the bar drinking, people sitting eating food at 2200 detracts from the bar atmosphere.

Modernish pub with a good selection of beers, appears to be more geared towards dining, but they have revolving guest beers, some from overseas. I’m told the service can be a bit bad, but it seemed fine when I was there

Large barn look city bar with a big selection of specialty beers from everywhere. Much of a ’look at me’ type of bar and not really a really beer bar. Service is lousy and not very attentive. The selection is nice but i doubt if it is fresh. Friendly priced but smaller glasses. Food is good but small portions. So if your hungry it will be expensive. Overall nice but not that nice.

Een echte aanrader! Deze zaak is mooi ingericht en heeft een aangename sfeer. Langs buiten ziet het er een oud (in de positieve zin) gebouw uit, maar de binnenkant is vrij modern en met gevoel voor detail ingericht. Een echte aanrader is het proefplankje met 5 bieren die uit een ketel komen die zichtbaar is en achter de toog hangen. de bierkaart bestaat voornamelijk uit Belgische bieren, er is een mooie selectie gemaakt in de Nederlandse bieren, er zijn ook engelse bieren van de brewdog bierfirma verkrijgbaar maar de absolute aanraders zijn de 4 a 5 bieren van flying dog want bieren van deze brouwerij zijn moeilijk te vinden!!

Wat een mooie tent is dit, super uitstraling. Jammer dat ze geen beschrijving bij de biertjes hebben gezet en ze mogen de selectie nog wel vergroten.
