Plenty of seats and genuinely good food, with a Belgian hot lunch of stoofvlees and witloof and a Leffe to go with it. It does get busy, so plan your visit around lunch.

What's good

  • Lots of seats
  • Good food, especially the hot lunch of stoofvlees with witloof
  • Leffe beer

What could be better

  • Can be busy
  • Some charging points weren't working

I used The View before a non-Schengen flight from Brussels in September 2026, with a lounge pass bought online.

Seats and space. There are lots of seats, the strongest point of the lounge for me. One criticism: some of the charging points weren't working.

Food and drink. The food is good, and the highlight is the hot lunch: stoofvlees, the Flemish beef stew, with witloof (Belgian endive). There is Leffe beer as well. If your timing allows, wait for the lunch.

Crowds. It can get busy, which is the main thing holding it back.

Service and value. I would score the service 3 out of 5 and the value 4 out of 5 for what the pass costs.
