Dear friends
L’Echappée Belle and its brasserie are celebrating their 7th anniversary on Saturday May 24th 2025!
To mark the occasion, we’re bringing you not 1 but 2 bands.
And not the least: at 7 p.m., it will be the TomBés du Camion, and at 8.30 p.m., it will be the turn of the Rolling Dads!
To make sure you have a great day out, we’ve put together a few surprises for you! Exceptionally, we’ll be opening our doors at 14:00.
Stay tuned for more information in the coming days!
Dear friends,
Our finds box is so full it’s threatening to overflow.
That’s why we’d like to do some spring cleaning there too!
Here you’ll find photos of all the jackets, hats, scarves, toys etc. that have accumulated over the last two years. We’re keeping them for another four weeks, after which we’ll pass them on to the Restos du Cœur.
So come along and pick up your stuff and/or have a drink!
Our opening hours are slightly changed during the festive season:
Welcome to our first Christmas market, where the magic of the festive season comes to life!
From the gourmet smells of mulled wine, gingerbread and hot chocolate, to the glittering stalls of local crafts, and the joyous melodies that fill the air, our Christmas market is a place where young and old alike can come and celebrate together.
And St Nicholas will also be paying us a visit on Friday!

We hope to see you soon!
We’re proud and excited to announce that we’ve been selected for the second year running to take part in the Lyon Bière Festival on 27 and 28 April!
It’s a real accolade for our craft brewery to be part of this prestigious event alongside leading international and European breweries.
We look forward to seeing you at this exceptional event to share our passion for craft beer and discover new flavours together.
Stay tuned for more information about our participation in the Lyon Bière Festival.
Thank you all for your continued support!
Here’s the Echappée Belle dream team for the start of the new year!
From left to right: Anthony, Simon, Fred, Andy, Eliot, Greg and Medhi.
Briefly, Anthony and Greg are in charge of the brewing side of things, brewing and bottling the beers you’ll find at Echappée Belle.
Medhi, Andy, Eliot, Simon and Fred are in charge of the bar, making sure that everything runs smoothly when you enter our Ali Baba cave.
You can also say hello to our partners, Kristina and Pascal, who are not in the photo but were recently featured on our page!
We’d also like to take this opportunity to introduce you to our latest recruits who started in September: Eliot, Mehdi and Simon.
Eliot is our apprentice on a BTS in wine and spirits marketing. He works alongside Frédéric Manson on the brewery’s commercial development. He’s also a great help in our day-to-day operations, as he looks after the catering, bar management, brewing and bottling.
Medhi is our head chef. If you haven’t seen him yet, it’s because he’s far too busy concocting those little tapas and slates for you!
And finally Simon, the new barman, who is in charge of bar management and communications.
The whole team would like to thank you for your confidence in us and for sharing this wonderful adventure, which has been going on for over 6 years now!
Well done to the team and especially to you, our wonderful escapees!
Stay tuned!
Exactly one year ago today, we took over Koos’ shares to form a new team with Fred. We never really imagined ourselves as partners in a brasserie – what an adventure! As customers from the first moment and dog owners, we loved going to l’Echappée Belle – the perfect distance for a walk and to catch up over a drink with friends. And when the opportunity to become partners suddenly presented itself, we didn’t really hesitate! A bar with local and mostly organic products, a place with music, open to all types of clients, with or without children, with or without dogs, of all ages, relaxed and comfortable – there was more than one reason why we went there so frequently!
This first year was marked by a great collaboration at all levels and gave new impulses to the brasserie and bar, also thanks to our wonderful staff. Many new ideas have been realised, and there are still more to come.
Thank you for an exciting year and countless interesting encounters with our customers and artists.
We look forward to continuing this adventure with you and thank all our customers for their loyalty. Being with you over a good beer in a great atmosphere is our greatest motivation!
Kristina & Pascal
