Excellent execution of great attention to beer with a comfortable, welcoming atmosphere that is off the beaten path.

Wait staff was knowledgable, friendly and helpful. Beer selection was quite large and it was a really nice cozy, less touristy place to have food beer. Their selection of Trappist ales was great and they cellar different vintages of Orval.

I love this café. Obviously from the namesake and pictures, you can see that one of it’s attractions are the hundreds of roses hanging from the ceiling. More importantly though, this is a place with an amazing curated beer list. It’s not as huge as somewhere like Cambrinus, but if you’re a lambic fan, you’ll want to come here. Me and the lady split a bottle of Drie Fonteinen Oude Geuze Vintage 2008 for 35 Euro which was a reasonable price. I believe this is also where Cantillon Zwanze day is being held tomorrow(9⁄19). I highly recommend this place! We did not order food here. The food menu looked a little sparse, but people don’t generally come here for a meal. On a weekday afternoon, it was also nearly empty :)

AMAZING experience; one of the highlights of our trip through Belgium. My wife and I went for unique beers before and after dinner, on our one night in Bruges. We tried really interesting beers – most of which we can’t get at home – at the recommendation of the bartender and our server. We ended the night with a 750 of the most well-balanced barrel-aged beer I’ve ever tried, a Belgian porter aged in Islay whisky casks. A real treat. Great selection, really delightful service, and comfortable, purposeful ambience. We’ll be sending anyone here who goes thru Bruges!

This place has a wonderful selection of beers. My husband and I tried a variety and enjoyed them all. For food they have a few small snacks, but no dinner and their beer is on the higher side of the ABV level, so be cautious(but not too careful, it is a vacation after all!). It’s a bit off the beaten track so the prices are great but it lacks a busy atmosphere. Comer here if you are looking for a tasty, calm and affordable evening.

Great value, great service with real attention to detail — no shovelbeer here. Missus poking me in the ribs ‘does great wine too’!..

Amazing! Large selection of beer(around 190, mostly local) and friendly waiters. But this is not only a good beer bar in Bruges: contrary to other bars, more traditional, this one is quite romantic, perfect for a couple’s night. Less pub crawl, more quality time. Careful though: the fruitbeer selection is more limited than in other bars.

What a wonderful place to spend some time sampling and sipping from the extensive selection of belgian beers here in this relaxed environment where the service is good and the beer flowing. You can even buy the beer sampler consisting of four beers for 10 euro. The café has a very warm look as the lighting and ambiance is warm and cozy. You can also order a plate or two of finger food to snack on while you try the belgian beer. Treat yourself to a visit to Café Rose Red if you’re ever in Brugges, Belgium.

150 beers to choose from. 5 on tap. Wonderful staff. Cozy, warm, intimate and very friendly. From cheap to ultra expensive list of Belgium’s finest beers. Finger foods only. Come for the beer.

We were in Bruges for a weekend and ended up spending every night in the Rose Red. The bar is cosy and has its own character. The waitresses were very nice and friendly, they took their time to advice us some beers according to what we wanted to try and it was nice to deal with people who actually know something about what they serve. We really enjoyed the time spent there and already miss that bar! :(
