Favorite locals bar/café
Places frequented by “locals” and not tourists. Keep in mind that in Brussels - locals are from everywhere since this is such an international community !
Amazing for relaxing coffee, lunch, or drinks and a light dinner in a chill “locals” environment !

Roselyne
Cute café with light lunch and good coffee and tea!
This place is a mix of so many things! If you want a hearty dinner with some good vegetarian or vegan options, it's great, (also for meat eaters), if you just want to go for beers, they have a great selection. Cocktails? Good choices as well. Finally - they also have plenty of board games! The vibe is really lively and the decoration is always interesting!

Trendy Latin American fusion restaurant - the food is pretty good, the cocktails are amazing, and the interior is so nicely designed. Plus the service is friendlier than most places in Brussels. Prices are a little higher than other places in the area.

This place is so cozy and the food is deliciousssssss. It is Belgian food, mixed a bit with Italian. Sometimes better to call them for a reservation or to see if they have a place (on the same day is usually fine).

My favorite place to go out if I want a cool bar with good DJs and a good crowd. Good for dancing or drinking, and without the usual "euro clubbing" crowd.

The building itself could be a museum! It is stunning. But viewing all the instruments is sooooo cool. It's very well done. Plus the café at the top is lovely for a drink and a view of Brussels.

Absolutely beautiful museum - Art Deco at it's finest. I think it is something you can't miss if you come to Brussels, to get an understanding of Belgium's huge impact on Art Deco design!
