SINCE 1990 · BELGIAN FRIES · BOURG-ARGENTAL
Potatoes peeled by hand, cut on site, double-fried — as it should be. For thirty-five years.
THE MAN BEHIND THE COUNTER
Thirty-five years in the trade, one philosophy: authentic Belgian fries, simple hospitality, a welcome with a smile. Meet us at 7 place d'Armeville, at the counter.
Our story →THE ICE CREAM · MADE FRESH EACH MORNING
What few customers realise when they walk into Frietkot: Pascal is also an ice cream maker. A serious passion, cultivated for years — and a selection that would put many ice cream parlours to shame.
Real vanilla bean, pistachio with actual pistachios, salted caramel that sticks to the spoon. Nothing frozen, nothing industrial. All made here, in honest quantities, with the same care a Belgian friterie brings — which is to say, a lot.

BELGIAN FRY SHOP · SINCE 1990 · BOURG-ARGENTAL
Fries cut and cooked on site. Trappist beers hand-picked. An inn to make the night last. Here we don’t cut corners — we treat you right.
THE CRAFT
Every morning, potatoes are peeled, cut, and dipped twice in our fryers — as it should be. A first gentle cook, a rest, then the final fry. It’s that double cook, and nothing else, that gives Belgian fries a melting heart and a crackling crust.
No frozen shortcut. No compromise. Just the method learned in Brussels, passed on since 1990.
OUR MENU
A glimpse of our essentials, in an authentic friterie spirit.
Regular cone, large cone, extra. Homemade mayo, andalouse, samurai, garlic, mustard. Wide choice, one foundation.
Slow-cooked carbonnade, vol-au-vent, Liège-style meatballs. Belgian classics prepared each morning from what the market offers.
Fresh salads (chicken, tuna, salmon) for lighter meals. And to finish — Liège waffles, crème brûlée, artisan ice cream.
BELGIAN BEERS
A Belgian fry shop without a Belgian beer is only half the story.
We keep the list short but right — Trappist ales, strong blondes, abbey brunes. Each picked to match a dish, a season, a moment.
Ask at the counter — we’ll point you to a bottle.
GUEST ROOMS · NEW
Steps from the fry shop, we open our rooms. Three comfortable, simple spaces with a Belgian feel — a nod to Duvel, to Paljas, to northern conviviality.
For a food-focused getaway, a weekend in the Pilat, or a stop on the road south.
