Does Chez Clément have a cloakroom?

Quick answer
Yes, Brasserie Chez Clément has a self-service cloakroom: guests hang their own coats on the dedicated rack at the entrance. No staff handover, no tag system, no fee.
For a brasserie of this scale, 230 seats across the main room, the glass conservatory and the separate bar, and up to 250 guests for private events, a coat-management arrangement is part of the basic guest infrastructure. The Belgian climate adds a practical layer: from October to April, most guests arrive in coats, jackets, scarves and the occasional umbrella, particularly on rainy autumn nights or cold winter evenings. The Thursday Thursday disco nights crowd, the Raclette season, and the autumn / winter weekend lunches generate steady volumes of outerwear to handle.
The Chez Clément solution is straightforward: a self-service cloakroom. A dedicated coat rack is set up near the entrance, where guests hang their own outerwear before being shown to their table. No staff handover, no tag system, no fee. The format is informal in the brasserie tradition and reflects the everyday rhythm of the room. You will not be left holding your coat on a stool through dinner; coat-management is part of the welcome routine.
For private events, weddings in the conservatory, corporate dinners up to 230 seated, cocktail receptions up to 250 guests, a dedicated cloakroom solution is generally agreed in the quotation signed with the events team at info@brasseriechezclement.be. This includes staff allocation, tag system, and the practical layout of where guests drop their coats on arrival and pick them up at the end of the evening. For a large group, the cloakroom is a meaningful part of guest experience.
If you are arriving for an everyday lunch or dinner, no special preparation is required: simply ask at the entrance, the team will guide you. If you are arriving for a private event, your host or the events coordinator will have briefed the team in advance. The brasserie has been welcoming guests under the same family thread since 1858, and small comforts, a place for your coat, water at the table, a smile at the door, remain part of the everyday signature.
