  • The decor may not be as authentic as its history, but this is a good place to sample traditional brews and authentic pub food.

  • “Sudden Death” may sound alarming, but this famous bar, redesigned in Rococo style in 1926, is named after a dice game. It is also the name of a gueuze beer (see Types of Belgian Beer).

  • Hidden away from the tourist throngs, the famous Toone puppet theatre (see Théâtre Royal de Toone, Brussels) has an atmospheric bar serving decent beers and light meals.

  • A lively nightspot, a few metres from the Grand Place, with Cuban DJs and an international crowd.

  • The Musée des Instruments de Musique’s spectacular rooftop café (see Musée des Instruments de Musique).

  • The ambience may be Latin but the music comes in all varieties at this lively dance club. Open late – all night at weekends. Three bars, restaurant.

  • La Chaloupe d’Or

    An elegant café and restaurant in the old tailors’ guild-house. A good spot for a light lunch, an afternoon beer or a slice of fine pâtisserie.

  • A rare survivor among the traditional pubs known as estaminets . Pictures and inscriptions recall its connections with the Surrealist movement.

  • A chic disco offering world music, two bars and a restaurant serving world food, on Fridays and Saturdays.

  • Le Falstaff

    This celebrated café and brasserie-restaurant is famed for its Art Nouveau detailing, but it also has a robust, tavern-like atmosphere in keeping with its Shakespearean name.
