Core concept and our values

At Harvest, we have established ourselves as a pioneering restaurant in the heart of Antwerp, dedicated to redefining the dining experience through our unwavering commitment to sustainability and ethical gastronomy. Housed in a historic building, our ethos is deeply rooted in the farm-to-table movement, celebrating the bounty of nature while actively minimising our environmental footprint. We believe that dining should be more than just a meal—it should be a conscious act that connects people to the origins of their food and the stories of those who produce it. Our approach is holistic, encompassing not only the ingredients we use but also the way we operate, from zero-waste initiatives to community engagement. By prioritising organic produce and responsible sourcing, we offer an ethical dining experience that inspires our guests to make sustainable choices. Our mission is to foster a deeper appreciation for food, its provenance, and its impact on the world around us. Through transparency and dedication, we strive to set a new standard for responsible dining in Antwerp.

Special offering and specialities

Our menu at Harvest is a vibrant reflection of our culinary philosophy, showcasing the very best of local and seasonal produce sourced directly from nearby organic farms. We take pride in offering a diverse array of dishes that cater to carnivores, pescatarians, vegetarians, and vegans alike, ensuring that every palate is welcomed and respected. Each plate is thoughtfully crafted to highlight the natural flavours of the ingredients, with a focus on freshness, quality, and authenticity. Our chefs, Stephen and Adil, bring a wealth of international experience and a shared passion for sustainability to the kitchen, infusing every dish with creativity and care. The result is a menu that evolves with the seasons, bursting with flavour and rooted in tradition. We also offer tailored menus for private events, allowing us to create bespoke culinary experiences that reflect our guests’ preferences while upholding our commitment to responsible gastronomy. At Harvest., every meal is an opportunity to celebrate craftsmanship, heritage, and the joy of sharing good food.

Impact on the gastronomic ecosystem

Our impact on the local gastronomic ecosystem extends far beyond our kitchen doors. By championing local producers and seasonal ingredients, we actively contribute to a more resilient and diverse food community in Antwerp. We see ourselves as a bridge between farmers, artisans, and diners, fostering connections that strengthen the region’s culinary heritage. Our zero-waste philosophy, including rigorous composting, fermenting, and recycling programmes, serves as a model for circular gastronomy and environmental stewardship. Through our transparent practices and open communication, we aim to educate and inspire our community to make more informed, sustainable choices. Hosting private events and sharing the stories behind our ingredients allows us to deepen these connections and promote a culture of responsibility and appreciation. Ultimately, our goal is to nurture a healthier, more vibrant gastronomic landscape that benefits everyone involved—from producer to plate.

Partnerships and collaborations

Our commitment to sustainability is reflected in the partnerships we forge and the sourcing practices we uphold. We work closely with nearby organic farms and trusted local producers, ensuring that every ingredient we use meets our high standards for quality, ethics, and traceability. This direct relationship with our suppliers allows us to support small-scale agriculture, preserve traditional farming methods, and maintain a transparent supply chain. We are dedicated to responsible sourcing, favouring ingredients that are grown with respect for the land and the environment. Our zero-waste kitchen is complemented by comprehensive composting, fermenting, and recycling initiatives, further reducing our ecological impact. By prioritising sustainability at every stage—from farm to table—we are able to offer our guests food that is not only delicious, but also meaningful and respectful of both people and planet.
