A tea room and restaurant on Damme's main street, with shrimp croquettes, house pastries, pancakes and a terrace; closed on Saturdays.

Tante Marie is on the Kerkstraat, the street that runs from the square in Damme to the Church of Our Lady, and it is the natural stop when you arrive by bike or boat from Bruges. It serves meals without a break 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 suggestions. In the afternoon, the house pastries, ice cream sundaes and pancakes served with sugars, butter and a jar of home-made jam. The coffee and tea list has about forty varieties; each 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 on the website, 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 its jam or a cake of the day
