Tearoom and lunch spot on Damme's main street, with shrimp croquettes, home-made cakes, pancakes and a terrace; closed on Saturdays.

Tante Marie is on Kerkstraat, the street that runs from Damme's square to the Church of Our Lady, and it is the natural stop when you arrive by bike or boat from Bruges. It serves food non-stop from 11:30 to 17:45, so whatever time you arrive, you can eat.
What to order
At lunchtime, salads, pasta and savoury dishes to share; the home-made shrimp croquettes are the ones they recommend themselves, and each season they add specials. In the afternoon, the house cakes, ice-cream sundaes and pancakes served with sugars, butter and a jar of home-made jam. The coffee and tea list runs to some forty varieties; every hot drink comes with chocolate mousse, cream and a house biscuit.
When to go
Open every day from 10:00 to 18:00 except Saturday, when it is closed. To book online, do so at least 24 hours ahead; for the same day, phone.

Qué pedir: the house shrimp croquettes at lunchtime, and for dessert a pancake with their jam or the cake of the day
