I walked in as usual. It is a Saturday 27 April. The time is 02:35. The bar tender was holding a phone, a kind of chatting as the bar was empty, when I told about kind to clients and finish with the call then serve. He did NOt want to serve me :) I was looking for the phone to file a complaint with owner but in vain.Anyway, that is really disappointing to have such bar tenders is such a nice place. I used to stop by every time I leave from Atlanta!The guy is a kind of short, african-American, and has a beard.Honestly, a Belgian-cafe client!

Although the bar is a great place to sit whilst you are waiting to board your flight and the drinks are pretty good . The bartender was uninterested and dismissive , he spent the whole time we were in the bar ( which was at least 70 minutes )on his cell phone . Other people came into the bar and we answered their questions because he didn't acknowledge them . Great bar , a real shame about the barman who was on duty when we visited . I work at a retail outlet in an international airport and would not employ him

Before the flight back to Frankfurt ?? we sat in the Belgian Beer Café for a while to kill time.The atmosphere is nice and cozy, the service was friendly and attentive. The prices are steep, but you should know that when you sit in a café at the airport.With some refreshingly chilled Blue Moon ? the waiting time until boarding can be shortened ✔️

This place is bad. Used to be a gem with an actual menu of Belgian beers and replaced it with the normal lousy US beers that you can get anywhere. No food either. Avoid at all costs.

The bar LOOKS like a Belgian bar. If only the beers followed. It has one actual Belgian beer, Stella Artois, and Blue Moon which professes to be a Belgian style.That being said, I liked the chill ambience and the service. No issues there. The Information desk didn't even know it existed, but it's a nice quiet oasis in the middle of a busy, noisy, airport.Bottom line, go there but just don't expect Leffe, Duvel, etc.

The only Belgian beer on offer was Stella Artois (and many Belgian beer lovers probably would not even consider this a good example of Belgian beers). What is difficult to accept is that almost exactly a year ago Belgian beer availability was same as now - close to zero. So within a year no action was taken to get real Belgian ales, triples, etc. So what did we have? A bottle of Modelo beer for 12 dollars including the tip.I don’t mind having any beer here when there is no alternative. But please remove your “Belgian beers” sign. It’s not true.

An indifferent server who was more interested in his phone than attending guests offered me beer in a plastic glass...no thank you...guess place was empty for a reason.

I cant understand for the life of me how people who work in a food industry/customer service, can be that horrible at their job and somehow still keep their job. The lady in front of me tipped this employee $2 while the employee looked on her phone while giving 0 fux about the customer. Mind blown.

Overpriced Belgian beer cafe without a single Belgian beer, + gratuity scam - to avoid
To quote Kip Dynamite, "Well that place was a ripoff!"Avoid.

Waste of a walk along the concourse. I asked what Belgian beers they had on tap, & was told "Bud Light."

Gratuity scam. Charged $37 for a beer and a whisky..They charge gratuity into the bill without telling you. No itemization, so he gets tipped twice.. Also they are a “Belgian brewer” but have only domestic on tap, like Budlight, which is woke and we are boycotting.Also no menu. The bartender just stared at me when I asked what he served.This is a scam on consumers probably taking advantage of unaware international travelers. I’m reporting this business to a state agency for deception by failing to provide transparent prices.

No taps. Cheap beer in a plastic cup. There is nothing you can’t get from any local gas station. The “bartender” that works on Saturdays and Sundays tries to double dip and sneak in another 18% gratuity without telling you endless you ask for an itemized receipt. He also age verified me after I finished my drinks.

I wish I could make this place my local neighborhood bar. Opposite gate F3, it's a perfect watering hole for overnight KLM flights to Amsterdam and some last minute food too. Helena was amazing, especially compared to typical airport bar staff (and I've traveled a lot). Tell her Steve sent ya ;-)
