Is Brasserie Chez Clément open on Sunday?

Sunday lunch is one of the busiest moments of the week at Chez Clément, and the brasserie is firmly committed to being open seven days a week. The restaurant serves the lunch shift from 12:00 to 14:30 and the dinner shift from 19:00 to 22:30; in between the two services, and after dinner, the bar continues to welcome guests right through until 1 a.m. There is no weekly closing day, an increasingly rare commitment in Belgian hospitality.

For British visitors used to the great Sunday roast tradition, the equivalent ritual at Chez Clément is the long family lunch, multiple generations around the table, an aperitif at the bar, a starter, a main, a dessert, a coffee, a digestif. Many regular families have been doing this at the brasserie for decades; some have moved through four or five generations of the Clément family. The house was founded in 1858 by Henri and Sidonie Clément, and Sunday lunch is woven into the bone structure of the place.

The Sunday dinner shift is a quieter, more intimate moment. The dining room is busy, but typically less crowded than Friday or Saturday evenings, which can be a good choice for guests who prefer the energy of a real brasserie without the full weekend rush. The Thursday-evening “Thursday disco nights” tradition aside, Sunday evening is the gentlest of the seven nights at Chez Clément.

Two practical tips. First, Sunday lunch is the moment when reservations are most necessary, the brasserie serves between 200 and 300 covers per service, and Sundays push towards the upper end of that range. Book early on brasseriechezclement.be/reservation. Second, the free car park ten metres from the entrance makes Sunday family logistics very easy: arrive together, park without negotiation, walk inside.
