An absolute must on any visit to Brussels. My son recently teased me about an Easter basket and I needed to remind him, I literally flew to Belgium to secure Easter chocolates from at least 7 different Belgium chocolatiers to prep his Easter gifts this year. If that doesn't keep me out of a nursing home, I don't know what will! Bestie and I finished our morning waffles and the chocolate shopping began. We went in every single shop and others around town. Thank goodness for cool temps because we had so many treats! This is a beautiful area to spend some time. We left with an extremely robust selection. A couple of my Easter bunny's from Mary's broke in transit back to the states but most everything else remained in tack. I loved admiring all of the store fronts decorated for Easter. read more

This uber famous "mall" is all the rage in the area. To walk it, one marvels at the long lasting architecture and the innovation of concept at its time. The stores are definitely more high end, but this is a place to definitely seen and be seen. The holiday decor also elevated the experience and truly made the interior and atmosphere pop. Pro-tip: Go open opening hours to get to walk without the crowds and stay to people watch. read more

A charming little strip lined with many chocolatiers like Pierre Marcolini, Neuhaus, and Mary's. You'll also find cozy cafes and restaurants where you can sit down and relax. It's definitely worth a visit. Although, the chocolates are all on the pricier side... read more

C'est genial! Loved it very charming and cool place to visit. Lots of shops, food, coffee and chocolate you name it! Walking distance from the grand place. Take a picture with the historic glass cieling and enjoy a Belgian Waffle read more

The Royal Saint-Hubert Galleries are 3 elegant glazed shopping arcades the King's, Queen's Gallery and the Princes' Gallery. They were designed & built by the architect Jean-Pierre Cluysenaar in 1846. The upscale shops and cafes look inviting. Many handmade multigenerational chocolate shops call Les Galeries home. At night the Galeries are magical. read more

One of my favorite places to visit and do little shopping in Brussels is Les Galleries Royale de Saint Hubert. You can find high-end retailers like Duchamp, but also cool sneakers at the Camper store. There are also several traditional Belgian chocolate stores, cafés and pattiseries. It a fantastic experience to visit and shop there, and a must when visiting Brussels. read more

Who doesn't love walking through Les Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert? Higher end stores, but it's fun just to window shop. This is a meca for pickpockets so watch your purse, and pant pockets. This used to be an open air street, but a glass roof was put in place, so that shoppers would have cover during inclimate weather. Which actually happened to us. A beautiful day window shopping, and watching the street musicians outside, when all of a sudden a downpour came without any warning. We all dashed inside the gallery. Time for coffee..... Several chocolate shops to try Belgian chocolate if you haven't already. read more

A beautiful promenade of shops that were a little too rich for my blood, but it was fun to window shop. The glass ceiling that kept the weather out was beautiful, as was the architecture of the store fronts. Definitely a tourist stop, and definitely worth a quick walk through. 32/2020 read more

A good indoor space/shopping mall where you can find a variety of options for coffee, chocolate, or clothes shopping. Located steps away from the grand place, this place is easy to find. It is definitely very touristy, but it does offer a little big everything for everyone. I never really spent too much here but always enjoy the walk through the mall. This is especially ideal for the rainy weather in Brussels! read more

One of the stops on the walking tour of Bruxelles, the Galeries is definitely here for the tourists and those who want to spend a huge amount of money on high end chocolate, macarons and eclairs. Several of the chocolatiers have outlets here, including Leonidas and Mary but also Pierre Marcolini and Neuhaus. Two hundred meters long, but divided into two sections and completely covered in glass, it was very crowded both times that I was here. While it's absolutely something that you should see when you're in Bruxelles, know that each of these shops has other stores in the city that may have a slightly less crowded shopping experience. read more

Beautiful Architecture and a great vibe. Shopping here is very pricey as it's mostly high end retailers. There are some nice coffee shops that are reasonable peppered through that can be a great spot to sit relax and people watch for a bit. Certainly someplace you would want to at least walk through when visiting the Grand Place. read more

Aside from Grand Place, Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert is another memorable place during my Weekend in Brussels! The space is just glorious! Love the glass ceiling that protect the rain and wind from getting in but still let the sunlight to shine through. A little touristy but I am a tourist so I enjoyed that experience! Pricey and expensive shops great for window shopping but I could afford some chocolate from various Chocolate Shops here. An experience that should not be missed if you are in town! read more

Indulge in chocolate, buy lace, drink Trappist beer, indulge in a delicious lunch. All of this can be yours at La Galeries Royales Sant-Hunbert --- if you are not blown up by terrorist bombs. Brussels has always been one of my first stops in Europe - because the culture here is so accessible to Americans - and thus it is so easy to segue into a longer, deeper trip into Europe, even for a seasoned traveler like me. Sure there is the French devotion to organ meat that one must face (yum). Sure, a traveler's high-school French one and two can be derailed by the occasional deep throated Flemish speaker who refuses to stumble through your French, or insists on their melodic, curly version of English, screwing up your whole cool plan. But in General - other than Amsterdam and London, there are few other better portals into Europe for an American than Brussels. And it is not expensive - and the seafood is astronomical (try the raw snails - if you dare). In a way we and the Belgians are cousins - and that relationship helps to make any shopping, or travel, or eating experience here all that more easily accepted and absorbed. And this Gallerie - which is essentially a 19th century version of a shopping mall - is a very easy place to go to - on day one.Other deeper experiences will follow - once you have mastered this one That said - we also have another - and newer relationship with Belgium that will bring us oh-so-much-closer together. Like America, Begium has been brutally attacked by terrorists - with hundreds dead - and they are reeling. Just like we were in New York. Feel it. The pain and the fear is deep. Just like with us 15 years ago.It is Deep. Deep. So how can we help them? We can Visit Belgium. See her landscapes. Experience her wonders. And SCREW the Terrorists! read more

Walking through Les Galeries Royales Saint-Hurbert felt like deja vu. Why? It reminded me of the uber expensive shopping malls in Las Vegas, but with authentic architecture from the past. Super expensive. It is one of those malls that most will go but most won't buy much. So for your benefits, you should come here to be WOW'd by its beauty, to experience what the royalties in the past experienced, and to buy chocolates. Only the good stuffs are sold here. Only the best staffs work here. At least this was my experience when I bought €100 of chocolate. read more

This is basically a shopping mall, but it isn't any old shopping mall, it is a shopping mall in the tradition of the original, classy, 19th century style of shopping mall. In fact it reminded me of the mall that I wandered through in the centre of Naples. Actually, come to think of it this place has come to remind me of those really classy, 19th century shopping malls that you find in Australia cities - each major city seems to have at least one of them. However, this mall completely out does the malls in Australia, though they come nowhere near the size and granduer of the one in Naples. The best thing about this place is that it doesn't take all that long to wander through. read more

This place was okay. I wouldn't say that it is as nice as the Gallery in Milan. It is a lot smaller compared to that one. I like that it is indoors but has the nice sky lighting so you can see the outside. They have quite a few chocolate shops. I'd say that you could walk through this entire plaza within 5 minutes. However, if you lounge around and visit each shop, it might take you a little longer. It is a lovely place but don't plan on spending too long here. read more

I really like the design of Les Galeries Sanit Hubert. It is a place that has beautiful classic architecture style aside and many different luxury shops, cafes and theaters. It's a hallway connected to different streets. If you need to get to the other side of the street, why not go through this amazing place and get some cool pictures. But beside the architecture, it's just like a normal super mall. In the middle of this place, you can find yourself in the seafood street, there are lots of seafood restaurants with very good price. If you love seafood, then don't miss it. The only thing I don't like is the way how they try to get customers, quite aggressive and rude. It definitely takes some courage to walk through the whole street. There are some interesting shops in this place as well, just go around it if you have time, you might surprise what you can find here. read more

Fancy, fancy.~ Lots of boutique style shops and specialty chocolate shops. Found a very nice tea shop here as well. Prices aren't going to be short sums. So expect a little richer blood, I guess? It's still in a touristy part of town so its fairly easy to wander in and it is really cool to see what the chocolate shops dish out display wise for the holidays. We managed to see their Valentines displays and Easter displays. All really inventive or if you want holiday themed chocolates and treats then it's a good place to get a handful of ideas. Interior is rather elegant like a lot of the architecture outside with that Gothic nature to it. Not a spot I'd actively go out of my way to shop at, but if you're in the area with a bit of time to wander then it's not that bad. Otherwise, I'd just come here for very specific items. read more

A pleasure and a relieve to set foot in the luxury of Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert. The easy-to-walk non-cobblestone shopping environment is a welcome blessing for this wary traveller continuously caught on un-leveled stones. It continues to be functional for it's purpose of shopping in comfort, away from various weather. These Galeries have such elegance in the design and the cleanliness, maintenance makes these halls astonishing and picturesque. If you're a shopaholic or a window-shopping enthusiast, Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert will feel just like home. The selection of shops as touristy and/or higher-end as they may be, it's only fitting. Even if you can't justify buying those Italian Leather Gloves or Swiss Timepieces at the very least you can browse in a less polluted car-free safe area and comfort yourself at Mary's Chocolatier with an easier to afford Hot chocolate. Apparently there's a cultural side to this place, such as Theatres and Cinemas but that's for you mes amis to explore.

Shopping in Brussels is a feat. They have incorporated shopping enclaves into galeries and these galeries retain the original structures, which simply make the shopping experiences even more beautiful. This gallery has a glass ceiling that lets in natural light and the walls and store fronts are decorated in amazing bas reliefs and gilded adornments. There were numerous chocolate stores as well as clothing and other small boutiques. While I did not choose to purchase anything there, I did wander about and take photos. These are easy to walk by so make sure you take a peek. read more

This is a beautiful glass covered shopping space that was built in 1846, and precedes the other famous 19th century shopping arcades such as the Galleria Vittorio Emmanuele II in Milan. You will find cafes, shops, and even a cinema inside. On a rainy windy cold day, much like the day I visited, it is a great place to explore and get away from extra chill in the air. read more

Our tour guide told us this was the first indoor mall in Brussels created for the upper class. Judging by the types of high end clothing shops and chocolatiers located here, I'd say they're getting their money's worth. It's relatively clean (though I'm pretty sure there was dog shit in a few places), and the ceilings are beautiful, letting in a ton of light and protecting you from potential rain, which is always a possibility in Brussels. read more

This is a beautiful gallery with lovely shops within it. There are several boutique chocolate shops which are ideal for buying presents in. There are more specialist shops like a glove makers and traditional toy store. There are a couple of cafes with tables outside along the gallery serving coffee, cakes and beer. In the run up to Christmas the gallery is beautifully decorated and a delight to walk along even if you don't go into any of the shops or cafes. read more

(May 2016) A must when in Brussels. Boutique shops all along this corridor. You can purchase anything from leather goods to ice cream and of course fancy chocolates.
