Did You Overpay for a Belgian Waffle in Bruges?

Belgian waffles in Bruges cost €3–5 from street vendors or €7–10 at sit-down waffle houses with toppings. Bruges serves both types: Brussels waffles (light, rectangular, crispy) and Liège waffles (dense, caramelized pearl sugar, irregular shape). Liège waffles from street vendors around Markt square cost €3–4 plain. Adding toppings (chocolate, cream, fruit) increases prices to €5–8. Sit-down waffle houses near the Belfry are the most expensive, charging €8–10 for elaborate toppings on what's essentially the same €3 waffle. The best strategy is to buy a plain Liège waffle from a vendor — the caramelized sugar makes toppings unnecessary. Walk one street away from Markt square to find vendors charging €1–2 less. Waffle stands in the Burg square area tend to be slightly cheaper than those directly on the Markt.
