4/10Very average food and extremely slow service
Captain Cook • Owner
"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!

10/10Visiting 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.

9/10A 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

9.5/10Used 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.

7.5/10Wanted 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.

10/10This 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 !
