Take a bus to the 'Brugge Markt' stop. From there, walk towards the Burg square and then continue to De Garre, located at De Garre 1, approximately a 5-minute walk from the square. A single bus ticket costs €3 if purchased in advance or €3.50 if purchased from the bus driver.

Ask your taxi or ride-share driver to drop you off near the Markt square. From there, follow the walking directions to De Garre. A short taxi ride within the city center will likely cost between €10-€15. Be aware that traffic can be heavy in the city center, especially during peak tourist season.

Classical music plays softly in the background, enhancing the relaxed vibe. The bar is small and intimate, often bustling with both locals and tourists.De Garre is renowned for its impressive selection of over 200 Belgian beers. The house beer, Tripel van De Garre, is a must-try, brewed exclusively for the bar by Brouwerij Van Steenberge. This strong, flavorful Tripel is served in a unique glass with a side of cheese cubes.
