    Just off the main square and down from the Menin Gate the restaurant is perfectly located. Staff were really friendly and attentive, we were made very welcome. Generous portions with homemade desserts.

    4/10

    Very average food and extremely slow service

    Captain CookOwner

    "Slow service" pop in at 18:30 in a full restaurant to eat in an hour to attend the ceremomy. People book much earlier when they go to a service. The restaurant is located close to the gate. All our customers are Last Post guests. First in is first out, there's no priority if you book your table that late. Anyway, thanks for your feedback. I wish you tried another busy restaurant at that time, You could attend the ceremony next day!

    Tried this restaurant as read the reviews on TripAdvisor, great welcome on arrival and quickly seated. Great service, all 4 of us had the Flemish beef stew and it was brilliant. Great restaurant and very friendly staff! Well done to all!

    Visiting Ypres for a 3 day tour of the WW1 sites. Had pre booked Captain Cook on its reviews. Had a fabulous meal and dessert. It was very tasty indeed and backed up by great service from the girls in charge that evening. Reasonably priced and the restaurant was nice and busy which led to a great atmosphere. No language barrier as everyone speaks English. How lucky we are. Big thank you for a wonderful evening.

    A friendly greeting from staff on our arrival, shown to our table and ordered drinks which arrived promptly. We both ordered pizza and they were excellent, plenty of topping and a lovely stone baked taste. we struggled to eat it all. Excellent value for money just a stones throw from the Menin Gate. We will return when we're next in Ypres

    Used this restaurant a few times before and as usual the food and service was excellent. The only slight let down on my last visit was the length of time to order food and then the length of time from ordering to receiving our meals. First time I’ve ever had any kind of problem and in the grand scheme of things it’s a very minor thing.

    Wanted to enjoy a nice meal with my family but the noise level was too much when the coach party arrived. Seemed the restaurant caters for these and the initial good service fades away when they arrived.

    This was well worth the visit. The food was tasty, the service was great, it was the best evening meal ever! A gem of a place if you are in Ypres! It looks small from outside but opens up at the back, locals and tourists were eating here !
