DELIRIUM

Delirium is the most popular place that Brusselian people would recommend first. They have the biggest selections of beers and the interior designs are very inspiring.

AU BON VIEUX TEMPS

Many local Belgians love this kind of beer cafes. A little dark but very cozy and warm lightings, with wooden interiors.

 

local bars in Brussels Depending on the day, Au Bon Vieux Temps is quite packed by many local people so if you want to avoid the cloud, we'd recommend going early time for drinking. This cafe is in a narrow alley so you wouldn't notice if you are just walking by, pin on your google map so that you make sure you can get there.

LES GENS QUE J'AIME

This cafe has the second floors and you can drink upstairs and eat downstairs. Both have a good atmosphere but it'd be some special experience to drink upstairs.

O'bon Paris' tip

Depending on how you feel like, you can stroll the town and find your best favorite cafes. You may want to go to a jazz bar or lively beer cafes, or if you don't know at all where to go when you travel in Belgium, you can go to 'markt' (market) such as 'oude markt' (old market), 'grote markt' (central square), where many bars and cafes gather.
