Sir Anthony Van Dijck
Antwerp
At a glance
Sir Anthony Van Dijck is a refined restaurant set within the Vlaeykensgang on Oude Koornmarkt in Antwerp. The venue occupies a monumental historic building, creating a setting where traditional architecture, quiet surroundings and carefully considered interiors shape the dining experience. The atmosphere is calm and formal without losing its welcoming character.
The kitchen follows a classic and seasonal approach. Ingredients are treated with simplicity and attention to their provenance, while contemporary touches add a modern sense of balance. The menu changes with the rhythm of the seasons, making the restaurant suited to diners who value culinary tradition, careful preparation and a measured pace at the table.
Dining options include a daily three-course lunch, à la carte choices and four- or five-course gastronomic menus. The lunch is available during midday service, while the longer menus provide a more extended way to experience the kitchen’s seasonal cooking. The restaurant’s style favours composed dishes and a full dining occasion rather than a quick, casual meal.
Vlaeykensgang adds a distinctive sense of place. Its enclosed historic passage separates the restaurant from the movement of the surrounding streets, while the building and interior design reinforce the connection between heritage and contemporary refinement. The result is a setting appropriate for an intimate meal, a special occasion or an evening focused on the pleasure of dining.
Sir Anthony Van Dijck suits couples, small groups and diners looking for a classic gastronomic experience in an atmospheric setting. Its combination of seasonal cuisine, formal service and historic surroundings gives the restaurant a character that feels rooted in Antwerp’s architectural and culinary traditions.
