ONE HOUSE, A FAMILY STORY
A passion
for hospitality.
Led by Antoine Akayyan and his family, La Maison des Gaufres brings Belgian indulgence to the heart of Brussels.
Opened in 2025, the house continues a story connected to a tea room that opened in 1982. Take a break in our tea room at Marché aux Herbes, or visit our shop on Rue Charles Buls.
