“Large place on the main drag not far from La Bourse. It looked a bit touristy at first, but that was not the case. The taps served several regular beers but we did find a few gems. The ambiance was very comfortable. The bar servers were friendly, efficient and knowledgeable. The best thing for us was the extensive bottle list.“

GIST (Bar)
OUD KORENHUIS 30
“We were a little disappointed. Yes, they have a lot of taps, but several of them were empty. The beers on offer did cover a good range of styles and there was a good bottle/can list too. One of our first beers was a short measure and the barman was reluctant to top it up. It took him 2 more goes before the beer reached the line. All of our following beers were proper measures.“

“Small bar not far from the Grand Place. Fairly empty when we visited on Monday afternoon. Many beers on tap. A good range of styles and a reasonable mixture of regulars and rarer beers. Something for everyone. Service was at the bar and was friendly and efficient.“

86 /100 RUE DE TAMINES 2
“New taproom in Sint-Gilles of DrinkThatBeer brewery. Spacious, modern, looks loverly, could be touch warmer given the weather. Very friendly / great service. Sandwiches, cheese etc. available, vegetarian options, not sure if anything can be vegan. Multiple pour sizes available, you can taste a beer before ordering, 10 or so taps, good prices, decent to slightly better beers. Great atmosphere. Great stuff, relaxing, great service, decibel meter in place, pleasant volume, wonderful, should definitely return.“

74 /100 7 RUE PONT LA CARPE
“Real old school rock and roll vibe in look and service, there’s even a motorcycle behind the bar and they do shows plus it looks very brown. Very friendly service and good prices in a very lively neighborhood. They have their own shot which at 4 euro is a great deal and tasted nice. One rotating tap with Zinnebier on, Trappist selection on the menu. English speaking staff. Some real charm here, might pop in again at some future time, very much in central Brussels. Popcorn given with all drinks.“

68 /100 1 RUE DU LOMBARD
“Some nice game-oriented murals, spacious, nice terrace. Seems to be tourist oriented, tap selection is largely inoffensive and expensive, sweeter, more commercial Belgians. The same can be said for the beer list, expensive and not every exciting. English spoken and card payment possible.“

Le Cirio (Restaurant)
RUE DE LA BOURSE 18
“Utterly gorgeous Art Deco restaurant near the Bourse where the staff still have uniforms. The interior is a work of art and definitely worth the visit, food seemed classic brasserie. The taps were industrial rubbish tough and the beer list ubiquitous beers at best.“

“Es un bar muy agradable. Tienen una selección decente, aunque la verdad esperaba más variedad. La cerveza evidentemente estuvo muy deliciosa. Existe la opción de pedir 10 cervezas diferentes en tasters, pero son demasiado grandes para poder siquiera pedir uno para uno mismo. Me hubiese gustado que tuvieran presentaciones un poco más pequeñas.“

74 /100 BOULEVARD ANSPACH 77
“Located on the Anspachlaan with a big terrace and a traditional interior where the light fixtures remind you of the times of gas lamps. The menu is high on macro brands but has some new Brussel breweries (De La Senne, L'Hermitage etc.) and a reasonable range of Boon products including Boon Oude Lambiek available per glass or jugs of 500 ml. and 1 litter which was a nice surprise, charming. Very quick service, very popular.“

“Big place that’s a short walk from the central square. Beer menu is pretty large but 95% standard Belgians. So, yeah, may be a tourist destination. But the other 5% are unique and interesting craft. So worth a visit especially if Moeder Lambic Fontainas down the street is busy“

Le Bier Circus (Restaurant)
RUE DE L’ENSEIGNEMENT 57 ONDERRICHTSSTRAAT
“Walked in on a Friday evening to a severe lack of interest. Asked where the bar was, as there was no one to welcome us or explain the service rules and some bearded ponce gestured us to head round the corner. 5 minutes later were still sat there. Looked like 4 taps ... no tap badges .. had a look through the menu... seemed okay. Still no service ... complete cunt in the classical Belgian style of disinterested. We stayed a few more minutes and the 8 of us just fucked off elsewhere. Places like this don't need to exist.“

La Tana a Bruxelles (Restaurant)
10 RUE DE L’ENSEIGNEMENT
“(Visited Oct 2023) Really nice Italian restaurant in Brussels, not far from Le Bier Circus. Small place with a handful of tables. Three beers on tap on my visit, all Italian craft beers (quite obscure as well). Really good selection of bottles, many Italian, but not only. Very good food. Friendly and knowledgeable service. Well worth a visit. Be aware of the limited opening hours.“

68 /100 PARVIS DE SAINT-GILLES 47, SINT-GILLIS VOORPLEIN 47
“Interesting place for sure, nice location, cool interior with a chandelier. About 6 taps from macro to De La Senne and a big fridge full of beers, beer selection seems almost random. Macro beer, random triples, Trappists, craft breweries, almost all of it expired too. The glassware he selected for the beers also made absolutely no sense, friendly service. Like an overly fancy night shop almost. Charming in an odd way, ask yourself if a beer is good when expired if you pick a bottle here. They advertise 24/7 but I have definitely seen them closed earlier even than nearby bars.“

“Very smart place (verging on beer hall in feel), with a veritable tickers delight of a beer range. Visited on a Friday evening in November and the place was extremely lively. Got the first round whilst it was still happy hour, and stayed a good while thereafter. Good service. Beer was good to very good, with a broad range of styles. Food looked good too. Check out the bottle list. Interesting stuff to be had there. Definitely a must visit.“

Brasserie Royale (Restaurant)
PARVIS NOTRE DAME 11
“Restaurant located across the gorgeous cathedral and one of the few more passable places for a beer in the neighborhood probably. I stopped in before a concert at the catherdral and they were clearly overwhelmed by the sudden influx of customers. Food seemed basic standard Belgian cuisine. Interior is quite classic and gorgeous and very apt and decorated for Christmas season, cozy and comforting. Tap menu is uninteresting with Maes & St. Hubertus. Luckily the bottle selection has the likes of Westmalle, Orval and acceptable Le Fort. Serviceable for sure, unlikely you will ever find yourself at random here.“

“Medium sized taproom with courtyard patio outside. Wasn't that crowded during my visit. Industrial and somewhat rundown interior. Restroom could use an upgrade. 12 beers on tap, different styles which is nice, but quality was good at best. Worth checking out at least for ticking.“
