Restaurant De Keizer Beveren
Restaurant De Keizer in Beveren is a renowned Waasland address for lovers of refined Belgian gastronomy. Set in a stately town house on Yzerhand overlooking the town park, the restaurant offers a combination of classic and modern Belgian cuisine. The chef works closely with local producers in the Waasland and adjusts the menu to the seasons with freshly caught fish from the Scheldt area and regional artisanal products.
The restaurant is fully step-free. The main entrance has a sloping access ramp and an automatic sliding door. The large dining room on the ground floor is laid out spaciously, with considerable distances between tables, which makes manoeuvring with a power wheelchair comfortable. For larger groups or special occasions there is also a private salon, likewise step-free.
An accessible toilet with full fittings is located beside the entrance hall. The staff are trained in accessibility and assistance and are happy to help with specific wishes such as dietary restrictions or moving chairs to make extra space. The restaurant's own car park out front has three reserved disabled spaces close to the main entrance.
Restaurant De Keizer combines well with a visit to the Hof ter Saksen Beveren or with an exploration of the centre of Beveren. The price range is a touch higher than an average brasserie, but the quality of the food and the attention to accessibility make the trip more than worthwhile. A lunch menu is available for those wanting a lighter meal, and the wine list has excellent selections of French and Belgian wines. Booking is advised for evening meals and weekends.
