Let me start this review off by saying (for this of us from the US) that a beer sampler is not the…read moresame thing as a beer flight...it is FIVE FULL BEERS. So it was a fun meal. Also no regrets lol I did really enjoy the sampler. The beers were all delicious, although the fruity ones aren't my thing. Probably the best beer sampler I got while in Belgium (yes I got others ever after realizing they were full beers). I also got some mussels because obviously...I got them with white wine and garlic. Sooooo good! I really could eat these every day. And the French fries were amazing! Just be warned that this place is cash only and ATMs are very hard to find in Brussels. The waitress was very nice and tried to direct me to a couple. It took a while to find one so I saw the Mennekin de Pis on the way as it's very close by. This place was a great location and awesome for people watching. Would definitely recommend but make sure to bring cash!

Really nice lunch spot, or place to ~chill~. Seemed like a local spot, come in and sit anywhere and…read moreorder from the bar for drinks or waitress for food/drinks. Menu was focused on hamburgers and traditional "Brussels" type food. The Italian salad was huge, the vegetarian quiche was great! (Came with a nice side salad with light dressing) and the croque misour was good of course, ham and cheese grilled can't go wrong. All food came out quickly and the ambience is nice. Also, free wifi.

A quaint classic Brussels cafe. Much better than the commercialized crap around here…read more Just have had beers or tea but a beautiful local for that. Service was great.

Cafe Bizon is a great little bar with a great selection of Belgian beer and general liquor. We…read moreinitially stopped here to begin a night of pub hopping because of its proximity to the Marriott, but ended up staying for several hours and returning each night throughout our stay in brussels. The service was great, they take credit cards with chips, and the selection/prices were unbeatable. The interior is cozy and classic, with a large buffalo head perched above the bar. While bar service is only downstairs on slow nights, I highly recommend sitting upstairs where there are several small tables with benches hanging from the wall. The tables overlook the bar area below. Contrary to a previous review, while the music and atmosphere can become loud on the weekends, we never had an issue hearing each other in conversation. They played great music throughout the night. Overall, cafe Bizon is highly highly recommended as one of my favorite bars visited throughout my travels. Great beer, great prices, great people, great music, great interior, and overall great time.

I love that place! Small bar with a lot of good mood, good choice of drinks, funky concept of…read moreconcert tickets on the ceiling. Nice service. Stay open late and are a bit flexible if you go over the official hour... Only thing is that it's often overcrowded on certain week-ends, but overall always a great place to go to with friends to have a drink, no matter when.

Stayed at the Hilton Garden Inn for a short business trip and walked around the corner to this…read morenicely lit busy restaurant. I speak no French or Dutch, but I was greeted warmly and brought to a table. I had to read from the menu on a chalkboard in French, though the waiter offered help if needed. But I knew I wanted to get their most popular dish: chicken cordon bleu, and it truly was well fried and juicy. With a couple glasses of red wine, and a rich chocolate mousse for dessert, it was a great evening and meal to end my Brussels trip.

Yes, I'm a fan of Le Dillens…read more It brought more life to this little cute square, just opposite Oma. A cosy bar, for Breakfast, Lunch, Drinks, Party... any time of the day fits. The Lunch formula for me stays the best. Plat du Jour at reasonable price and great value for money. Warm, original combination that do NOT involve a sandwich. I love. The terrace is big and kissed by the sun. Perfect in summer/spring and early autumn. Interiors are well thought and trendy, without being too much hipster. They have international press of the day as well, so while waiting for the food you can feel the newspaper touch and get updated with the news from the world. Very quiet. Perfect for a break from work stress. In the evening, the atmosphere is more lively. The selection of beers is good and often there is music by a DJ. Sometimes a bit too crowded. But what to do, it's a good spot for the Saint-Gilles night life, and gladly is not on the Parvis.
