Nice casual dinner place.  Wonderful beer from the Abby. Steak quality was very nice and flavor was good, although would prefer a bit less herb and spice added to the steak, but thats just me.

Pancake and chocolate lava cake were spot on!

Service was helpful and friendly.

This could have been a great experience however… The salad had visible mold and discoloration on the leaves. I showed the young waiter who told me he was the ‘boss’. I only wanted him to be aware and let the chef know about my plate. Then the negative experience started. He took the leaves from me and wouldn’t agree as the salad arrived only 5 days ago. Unbelievable that someone can’t handle feedback. When salad is slimy and discolored it’s overdue. Such a pitty aboit this. As he is ‘the boss’ I don’t recommend this place at all.
The picture is the leftover of the salad with the (bad) leaves he already took with him when I showed him.

Lovely setting in the Belgian countryside. We had a delicious cheese tasting and several beers inside this old mill. The abbey is literally next door.

Would definitely recommend a visit. Better to reserve in advance during weekends.

Our group of 5 got a table with one menu on it, and they didn't bring us any extra. It took about half an hour before someone came to take our order. Drinks came pretty quickly, but the food took AN HOUR to arrive. Nobody paid us any attention so it was difficult to order another round of drinks. The cheeseburgers were good, but not worth the wait. I don't know why we were ignored and service was so bad, we spoke French so that wasn't it. As I said, food was OK, but we're not coming back

Le Moulin du Val-Dieu à Aubel : Bar et Restaurant Authentique en Belgique

Le Moulin du Val-Dieu is located in the buildings of the mill that was originally part of the Val-Dieu Abbey. The current restaurant was officially opened on June 23, 1993, and has since become a popular destination for both locals and tourists.

Situé au cœur de la charmante ville d'Aubel, en Belgique, le Moulin du Val-Dieu est bien plus qu'un simple établissement gastronomique. Il s'agit d'un site chargé d'histoire, qui témoigne de plusieurs siècles de tradition monastique et artisanale.

Le moulin, intégré aux bâtiments de l'ancienne abbaye de Val-Dieu, a été transformé en un restaurant renommé en 1993, marquant le début d'une nouvelle ère pour ce lieu emblématique. Depuis cette date, il est devenu une destination prisée pour les amateurs de gastronomie, d'histoire et de traditions brassicoles.

Au fil des années, le site a connu plusieurs étapes clés : en 1997, la Brasserie de l'Abbaye du Val-Dieu a été fondée, produisant une gamme de bières d'abbaye réputées qui attirent des connaisseurs du monde entier. La même année, le lien avec l'histoire monastique a été renforcé par la fabrication de bières artisanales dans ce lieu chargé de spiritualité.

En 2001, un tournant historique a été marqué par le départ des derniers moines cisterciens de l'abbaye, un événement qui a symbolisé la fin d'une ère monastique traditionnelle. Cependant, l'esprit de cette communauté persiste dans la fabrication des bières et la gestion du site.

Plus récemment, en 2012, la création de la Reserve du Moulin, une réserve naturelle de 7 hectares, a permis de préserver la biodiversité locale tout en offrant aux visiteurs un espace de tranquillité et de découverte. En 2017, l'exploitation du site a été confiée à Léon Stassen sprl, assurant la continuité et le développement de cette riche tradition.

Le Moulin du Val-Dieu demeure aujourd'hui un symbole de l'histoire belge, combinant patrimoine, artisanat et gastronomie dans un cadre exceptionnel, où chaque visite devient une immersion dans le passé et le présent de cette région riche en traditions.
