Most romantic place in Bruges: Minnewaterpark, the lake of love ('minnen' translates to 'to love' in Dutch). Make sure to visit the Beguinage (Begijnhof) in silence.

The St-Johns Hospital now serves as a museum. The building and the exterior (courtyard) are still wonderfully intact. If you visit the museum, you also have acces to the old pharmacy on the site. you don't need a ticket to see the exterior of the building.

Here you can find one of the most quiet places to picnic or have a walk in Bruges. De Gezelletuin is the garden where poet Guido Gezelle spent a lot of his time writing. I recommend going to spend some time on the benches and walking around the mills in the area.
(Don't visit the museum, not worth it)

beautiful interior, with a view over the Rozenhoedkaai. They offer a breakfast buffet for €15. Lunch and dinner are quite pricey but you can have a coffee during the afternoon to enjoy the interior that way.
if you do want to have lunch or dinner, make sure to book a table enough time beforehand, to sit next to the windows.

City/town information
Damme is a small village at a distance of 6 kilometres from Bruges. You can ask me to use the bikes to go there via the route next to the canal.
In Damme I recommend Tante Marie, de Siphon and Stichting Ijsberg.

Don't buy French fries on the market square
Places for French fries I can recommend in the city centre are: Chez Vincent, Frietfarm, De Gentpoorte and Godfriet (nearby the train station. The French fries on the market square are double the regular price and not tasty.

Go for a walk early in the morning
I strongly suggest going outside during the morning to walk and explore Bruges to see the city wake up.
Schools usually start at 8-8:30.
On Wednesday mornings, until 12:00, there is the grocery market on the Market Square.
On Saturday mornings, until 12:00, there is the grocery market on 't Zand, the square next to Concertgebouw.

Wednesday market
There's a grocery market every Wednesday morning from 8:00-12:00 on the market square, definitely worth it to go outside early and have a look!

The butcher on the corner of the street
At the butcher on the corner of the street you can buy relatively cheap large sandwiches! Usually they’ll be around €3,50 and they’re a better option then those of the supermarket.
