Brasserie La Marée Brussels
La Marée is an institution in the Brussels dining scene, specialising in seafood and fresh fish from the North Sea. The brasserie is known for its oysters, mussels, bouillabaisse and traditional preparations such as sole meunière. The interior is classic and honest, with white tiles, wooden panelling and an atmosphere reminiscent of a French fish market.
The main entrance is step-free and the ground-floor dining room offers enough space between the tables. Staff are happy to reserve a well-accessible spot and can adjust the table layout so that a wheelchair can join comfortably. The toilet is reachable via a slight ramp and has grab rails, though the turning circle is somewhat smaller than in entirely new layouts. Larger electric wheelchair users are advised to check accessibility in advance.
La Marée is located in a lively nightlife district near Sint-Katelijneplein. The surrounding streets are a mix of smooth tiles and older cobbles. Parking is possible in the underground Parking Dansaert, which has a lift and adapted spaces a few minutes' roll away. Brussels Central Station is reachable via Nieuwstraat with a completely paved route.
