Waffles, Fries, Beer!

Hi all. We have about 10 hours in Brussels on a Wednesday. We are 3 young adults in our mid-20s. The most imp thing for us is to be able to eat waffles, fries and drink Belgian beer! Can anyone recommend a restaurant where we can do all 3 of these? Thank you!

You can buy fries and waffles at take-away stands for sure. Waffle stands are all around near the Grand Place in Brussels. Why not walk around and enjoy one/both as you wander around the town? I'm not sure you can get beer to go as well, I don't remember, but of course you can get beer at any restaurant there.

Grand Palace area it is! Tons of fries, waffles and chocolate.
My Belgian friends recommended Chez Leon for mussels so that's where we went but there is a whole alley of food places to eat at there.

We found waffle and chip places everywhere (must try it with mayo!) as well as lots of places to taste beer.

This place was a great place to try beer - at one point they had 3,000 different kinds!

I suggest fries (frites) and beer (bier) with mussels (moules). Have the waffle for desert.

Try Maison Dandoy in Rue Charles Buls for a waffle (tea room style affair). Also go to the Sablon area (Place du Grand Sablon) for a number of chocolate shops.
