The guy that ran our Airbnb apartment suggested we go here for a pot of mussels (which they don't have) but we ended up just hanging outside in the outdoor seating with the locals. It really did feel like a local bar so it was more authentic. You can just sit outside and watch the people stroll by and the barmaid/bartender just leaves you alone to enjoy your adult beverage or whatever else suits your fancy. The bartender also spoke pretty good English as well. I had the zinnebir which apparently is the "local people's beer" and my sister had just a standard run of the mile light beer but in a big glass. The vibe of the bar though was a mix of like hipster/alternative with just good ole Belgian kindness. It also wasn't too busy in the bar either so I don't know if the place gets anymore crowded where it seems like a real bar. If you're on Rue Haute, just look for the orange & black fox on the side of the building and you've found the spot.

Bringing sandwiches to a whole new level (coming from a big bagel fan), APDM excels in their range of bagels, fillings, polar sambos, salads and lets not get started on their American inspired desserts (rockside brownie anyone?). Desserts a little on the $$ side for my liking, but then again you will only find me at Lilicup for cupcakes! Gladly they offer reduced take away prices, and I usually find that I need a second bagel to handle the huge amounts of filling they lash in! Huge range of fillings for all tastes and budgets. A nice sunny terrace at the back of the Lepoutre branch, and always a sunny smiley welcome!

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.
