The owners are friendly as every host/hostess should be. We booked a gastronomic weekend but the food was far from gastronomic. We checked the example of the menu posted on the website and were told we should expect similar standard but there's nothing fine about the dishes served. We got steak with fries and salad which was just normal restaurant standard. Two different kinds of creamy sauces with one of the main course one evenings which upset some of the guests stomach. Portion was good. Breakfast was disappointing especially on Sunday. No eggs (we had them on Sat but they did not set for Sun), croissants or something special for weekend. Hot water for tea was very dirty. Bathtub was very narrow. No shower curtain. Neighbours and the hotel owners have a feud and the neighbours let out their dogs on purpose at 5.30am to disturb the hotel guests. We were woken up every morning between 5.30 and 6am which was very frustrating.The area is very nice. There are various nice walking routes starting from Houffalize center. I would go back to Houffalize again but not to this hotel anymore.
Dropped in for a late breakfast and had a delicious pastry and well made hot drinks served by a very friendly member of staff. Definitely will be back next time we are in the area

We went there just for a drink and would like to come back for food and half a day of fishing. Small place, but nice people and interesting menu. Good beer selection. Watch out for cute little bunnies in the parking lot, we almost ran one over. And for dinner on the lake terrace, better call too book.
Nous aurions voulu déjeuner, mais comme il était déjà 15.30 hrs, la serveuse nous a informé que la cuisine était fermée. Nous avons donc commandés des crêpes, mais on voyait que nous dérangions. Bon les crêpes nous ont été servies et finalement se sont avérées très bonnes. Nous avons dû changer de restaurant pour être rassasiés.

We ate on the Monday before Christmas, most other restaurants in the area were closed and le relais could have done so but didn't. They could have had half a menu but didn't. I cautiously pick through a menu I should have dived into. each dish was amazingly prepared.

The location is perfect. The staff is friendly, the food is good, the beer is great. It's at the center of the quaint village with many shops in walking distance.

By all means, even if you don't stay at this charming hotel, have a meal here. This is a family-owned and operated restaurant, and the chef will prepare you a Michelin-star quality meal (but at a more reasonable price). We stayed at the hotel and took the half-board option. Top quality, friendly service.

This new restaurant was recommended to us by the owner of our accomodation.The decor was very modern and the ambience buzzing.The place was clean and the staff welcoming. Food was nice- not amazing but pleasant all the same. It cost between 13.50 euros for a fish dish and 25 euros for a mixed grill, so was very reasonable. The service was unobtrusive to the point where we would have ordered coffees but they seemed reluctant to disturb us to ask if we wanted it and it was hard to catch the waiters eye.

We had made reservations for La Fleur de Thym (one day in advance was fine) for a Saturday evening. We had gone for a long hike in the Houffalize neighbourhood and I had taken a rough fall, so was in need for some relaxation! And we got lucky, as right behind us a large group with toddlers had come in but decided that it probably wasn't the right place for kids. And it's true, it's just one space and noise can build up fast, but that evening it was all good.The restaurant has the title of "Jeunes Restaurateurs d'Europe", and this is also reflected in the interior, it's young and trendy (I don't like the word but it does fit here) and a little fancy: glad I had changed out of my muddy boots and into a pair of heels... Right after entering there is a glass floor with view on the wine cellar, a great touch. Special shout-out to the very clean restroom facilities.There isn't much choice on a Saturday evening, you're basically limited to two fixed menus but that's what we usually go for anyway. We didn't opt for the matching wine, as the price seemed a little steep and we still had to drive home anyway. A nice bottle of red worked out cheaper even if we couldn't finish it off, and we didn't regret our choice. I also got a cocktail (a Hugo, I've had better) and my partner a glass of superb port.Inside the menu there is a notice urging you to mention allergies, but our waitress didn't seem to know what gluten was. Neither of us spotted anything obvious in the menu that would have gluten, but she didn't check with the kitchen either. And the first appetizer that was brought to us was homemade breadsticks... If the restaurant wants to make special efforts for people with food allergies (which appears to be the case judging from that notice) their staff should be knowledgable too.But no fretting, after that there were more appetizers, and the dishes got better and better. My boyfriend particularly liked one of the starters with lobster and scallops (served in a -trendy- bowl which was quite awkward to eat out of). We both really enjoyed the main course with game. On the side there were macarons with foie gras filling, and a single spectacular "i don't know how they got it to taste this great" mushroom (I could have finished a plate full of those!). But for me the best part was the dessert. We find this is usually not a particular highlight in fixed menus but La Fleur de Thyme is a big exception here. Ending the evening on a high note, we had a very good time (or thym - hohoho).
