Delicious! Haarlem restaurant awarded a Bib Gourmand

Brasserie Bruis in Haarlem has been awarded a Bib Gourmand by the Michelin Guide for its high-quality French cuisine and excellent price-to-quality ratio. The restaurant is one of ten establishments in the Netherlands to receive the distinction this year, which honors venues offering full meals for under 60 euros.

On Monday, September 28, a new group of Dutch restaurants received the Bib Gourmand, a prestigious award recognizing establishments that provide high-quality dining at an affordable price point. Among the ten chosen venues across the Netherlands, Brasserie Bruis located at Lange Veerstraat 15 in Haarlem was selected for the honor. The jury specifically praised the restaurant for its contemporary interpretation of classic French cuisine.

The Bib Gourmand was established by the Michelin Guide in 1997 to highlight eateries where customers can enjoy a full meal for a maximum of 60 euros. While the Michelin stars focus on culinary excellence, the Bib Gourmand remains a benchmark for diners seeking great value. Brasserie Bruis joins a select group of businesses recognized this year, setting the stage for further gastronomic announcements, including the upcoming Michelin star ceremony scheduled for October 5.
