Bourla behind the scenes

Café restaurant Bourla is housed in a majestic building on the equally stunning Graanmarkt. Yet, the atmosphere is relaxed, the prices reasonable, and the regulars plentiful.

Young and old, businesspeople and artists, shoppers and theatre-goers… everyone feels at home here, has their regular spot, and enjoys their favourite dish. Increasingly, visitors from outside the city are finding their way to the Graanmarkt, blending in effortlessly with the locals.
