The comprehensive menu is oriented towards French cuisine – and our renowned wines perfectly complement the dishes. On sunny days, the splendid patio is also a great place to dine out.

The bistro is open from 12:00 till 20:30. Baron de Selys de Fanson was the Château St. Gerlach’s last resident. His kitchen, dining room and reception room have now been transformed into the cosy Bistrot de Liège.

The authentic paving stones, the antique stove and an original Liège-style pantry in the open kitchen are responsible for much of the Bistrot’s unique ambience. In this informal place you can enjoy a week menu, light dishes from the region or simply have a cup of coffee.
