Afspanning De Kroon is located in the heart of Brasschaat, the village of parks, just north of Antwerp. Afspanning De Kroon indulges its fine restaurant and cozy pub. Afspanning De Kroon is indeed well known for its convivial ambience allowing for any kind of conversation, but it is most famous for its unequalled Spare Ribs with a secret recipe.

The place probably originates from 1797 when this was a stage-coach stop, hence the Dutch name afspanning (=enclosed area with an inn and horse stables). Travelers and their horses could rest, eat and drink and even stay overnight. They would then continue their trip with fresh horses.

Over the years, Afspanning De Kroon became a nice café with culinary ambitions. Two hundred years later Afspanning De Kroon is still a meeting place for young and old, also because of its authentic character. Please contact us for information about parties and meetings.
