About Bridges MD - Belgian dining

Tucked beside Currumbin Creek, this intimate family-run enclave serves up honest Belgian comfort alongside fifty rare European beers. Owners Delphine and Martin personally run the floor, talking guests through pours of Chimay Gold and matching lambics to every plate. Diners settle into the low-lit courtyard over molten cheese croquettes, piping pots of Moules Marinière, and rich boulets liégeois paired with crisp frites. The pace stays unhurried through the final spoonful of house dark chocolate mousse.

  • Curated Belgian Beer Cellar: Over 50 rare Belgian and European craft labels, with personal pairing recommendations at the table.
  • Traditional Belgian Specialties: Classic Moules Marinière, crisp frites, molten croquettes, and rich Boulets Liégeois prepared with authentic regional recipes.
