The reply from the manager. No solution i guess
James T.

I came to that coffee to work. I barely set up my computer that the red-headed lady came to me in a very aggressive way to say that I had the obligation to order. Three minutes in and you already feel unwelcome. That lady needs to learn how to receive customers. Where is the manager, he needs to teach her? I left... they lost several orders as I had planned to stay the day. Note that the 3.5 euro coffee is very small, to say the least.

Finding Cafe Capitale in the midst of tourist hell is God sent. Once you step inside you instantly feel you're in a cute, cozy, neighborhood local spot. Food: I ordered a marble cake and a chai latte. Both were good. Price: 5.80 EUR Service: Super friendly. Ambiance: Very casual. Mix of people - locals on their laptops and some tourists. Would I go back? Absolutely. I stay at a hotel nearby and will now make this my usual spot.

Cafe latte. Great hipster ambience and free wifi. Good place to rest during a whole day of touring

Great place to sit down and relax. Their cafe latte was a bit too sweet. There seems to be a lot of locals here working on their laptops. This place was also recommended by our tour guide as one of his favorite.

A great find in Brussels when staying in the area a few weeks back. Its a cozy little corner spot within a few minute walk from the Grand Place in a touristy area. We stopped in here for our caffeine fix in the morning while exploring the town by foot. I unfortunately fell victim to their infamous "step" in the middle of the place, not sure why its there, but its only a slight step. We came back here later for their freshly made fruit smoothies. Both times, the place is fairly full with the afternoon crowd even larger. Had a very relaxing bohemian type feel to it. And they have free wifi which helped with exploring the area further, especially with a limited US data plan...

Coffee tastes the same as it did before (awesome)... Toilets are still missing but apparently will be added... Will check that !

This is my number one spot for coffee in Brussels! I'm always in search of perfect balanced coffee taste - and here it is, unexpectedly in the middle of Belgium! Totally recommend the place. Prices are great too if you're on a budget

In Belgium for 3days. Luckily I walked right by this place. Lattes to die for. They take the coffee seriously and you can taste it. Most I have visited have no flavor syrups but they had them all like in the USA. Thanks

Excellent!!

Just Excellent!!! The best coffee-place in town, honestly! I'm a local and I go here all the time: supreme coffees, juices.....and delicious pastry!!!!!!! I'm used to find places like this in NYC....and now this "wave" also made it to Brussels (actually already a couple of years now). Nice interior, vintage style.

Good coffee in a typical coffeehouse environment. A nice place to step away from the bustle outside.

Any place you can sit outside and people watch but isn't too crowded is a win for me. Staff (Theo)…read moreis super friendly and remembered our names the next day!

Somewhat strange setup: you find a table, make note of your table number, line up for food at the counter, and they bring your order out. We visited on a Friday morning: it took 5 minutes in line to order and another 30 minutes for the food -- popular place. My wife & I each got the Vegan Rustic breakfast (€13), which comes with a nice dark bread, hummus, avocado, green tomato, and a choice of orange or apple juice, and a hot drink (we got doppio espresso). We also split a very nice vegan croissant (€2.50). The main food items were very simply but tasty and well-executed: the bread was hearty, the avocado was fresh, the hummus was well-made, and the tomatoes were fresh and juicy. Perhaps not the greatest deal given the portion you're getting, but we were content enough. Good spot for vegetarian and vegan breakfast.

This is a great spot for brunch or breakfast. I found it on Instagram and seeing the pictures of…read morethe food really got me! Everything looks delicious and super appetizing to the eyes. We had a flight to catch later that day so we wanted to go first then when it opened. We got there right when it's supposed to open but they said they weren't ready to seat anyone yet. There was a few other people waiting also. When we finally were allowed to go inside and got seated, they said they weren't serving food until 930am and could only take drink orders for now. We decided to wait even though there was even more waiting. When we finally got our food, the order was incorrect and they had to remake one of our dishes. The chef didn't make it a big deal and quickly made the dish again which was nice. I was slightly frustrated because all this time waiting and then they make a mistake! The food was so delicious, tasty and so worth the wait!!! Our favorite thing was the vegan pancakes. There was some sort of cream in between each pancake. It was stacked high and came out hot and fresh. It was one the best vegan pancakes I ever had. It's definitely a must have to order!!! The coffee was average. By the time we left, the restaurant was full. Definitely worth the wait, great place to go!
