We are writing the Pleasures story at various locations. The two brasseries (Pakhuis and La Quincaillerie) and Pleasures Boutique are the Pleasures banner in Flanders and Brussels. Their top products come directly from Le Devant farm. Finally, Pleasures boasts a fantastic destination in the heart of Dordogne: the Laudonie estate, where you can enjoy an unforgettable holiday.
Brasserie Pakhuis
You will find Pakhuis Brasserie near the Korenmarkt, under the famous towers of Ghent. A picturesque alley between those towers will bring you to Pakhuis, a brasserie teeming with character. The Portuguese architect Pinto gave the property a new lease on life. You will be instantly overwhelmed by the enormous space that oozes the atmosphere of the former storage facility: a unique combination of a 600 m² warehouse with specially designed interior elements. You can admire the architecture from every corner whilst enjoying culinary delicacies. In a word: gastronomy in a spectacular setting.
La Quincaillerie
Brasserie La Quincaillerie is a stone’s throw away from the Avenue Louise in Brussels. Tasting succulent seafood dishes and oysters in a cosy corner of La Quincaillerie is sheer enjoyment. In 1988, the brasserie opened its doors in a former hardware store in the Rue du Page in Brussels. The building was designed by a student of Victor Horta, and quite a number of elements of the original premises were piously preserved. Enjoy oysters at market prices and discover the most famous breeders in the world, while taking in the detail of the fabulous Art Nouveau interior.
Boutique
From now on you can enjoy the best of life in Sint-Martens-Latem also. Boutique fits right in with the Pleasures narrative: bringing people together to enjoy delectable meals, where we give pride of place to authenticity, quality and respect for the provenance of each product.

You can read about the best of life in our Pleasures Magazine. We bring information, experience and products together on 1 theme every year and look back on successful projects.

Laudonie
Laudonie is located in the heart of Dordogne. The 53-hectare estate lies hidden between the wooded hills of Rouffignac–Saint-Cernin-de-Reilhac, less than a two-hour drive of historical gems such as Bordeaux and Limoges – a particularly versatile region with perfect blend of culture, nature and gastronomy. The core of the estate consists of an inner courtyard surrounded by the Manor, four towers and the barn, that can accommodate 2 to 20 people. In 2018 the barn will be converted into a multi-purpose facility ideal for parties, seminars, workshops,… ‘the best of life’ in other words.
Le Devant
Le Devant farm is located in the very heart of the Bresse district. All sorts of our own products from the farm have since 2008 been dispatched from here every week to Flanders and Brussels. The farm is situated halfway between Bourg-en-Bresse and Chalon-sur-Saône. Bresse chickens and guinea fowl are here bred with love. Bayeux free-range pigs and Hampshire Down lambs graze on the meadows. Here we join forces with nature day in and day out to provide the chiefs in our three brasseries with the best products.
Bar Bask
Discover this Basque-inspired grill restaurant with a rock 'n roll edge... a casual hotspot where you can enjoy real pintxos and generous shared meals straight from the grill. Chefs Sam D'Huyvetter, Gilles Bogaert and Jordin Michiels use only the purest of products, from turbot and langoustines to the incredible Txogitxu beef.
