Market cooking, without the fuss
A short menu that follows the seasons, producers from Walloon Brabant and a dining room where nobody rushes you.
A neighbourhood bistro since 2016
Maison Lierre is a thirty-seat dining room, a small terrace under the wisteria and a kitchen open onto the pass. Camille and Thomas took over in 2016 with a simple idea: cook whatever local growers and farmers bring in that morning.
The menu is short, it changes often, and the market lunch stays affordable all year round.

Camille Dufour
Front of house & wine
He picks every bottle on the list and knows half the regulars by name.
They came back
“The Wednesday lunch has become an office ritual. Always fresh, always quick, and the carbonnade is the best around.”
“We booked the whole room for my father’s 70th. Tailored menu, flawless service, everyone still talks about it.”
“Real seasonal cooking without pretension. Camille’s wine tips alone are worth the trip.”
