3.The Waffles ‘n Beer Workshop in Bruges Centre

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 429 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.) · from $71Top rated

At Hoogstraat 10 in central Bruges, an English-speaking host leads you through three Belgian beer tastings, then shows you how to bake waffles with the beer you choose. You can make and eat as many waffles as you like, add toppings, and take home the recipe. Sessions hold up to 14 people.

“This was a fantastic experience and our instructor (I forget her name) was amazing. She was so informative about the city and provided a great experience for us. We sampled different beers, along with making waffles. The batch even made a bunch of extras! It was also intimate where there were a ton of people in the workshop so it worked very well! I’d recommend this experience to everyone!”
