A compact bar a few steps from the Grand-Place, running since the mid-1980s with the same distressed interior it started with. Weekends bring live DJs and the kind of crowd density that makes it one of the busiest bars in the city, drawing a mix of locals and international visitors who tend to arrive early and stay late. The house drink, the Belgica, is a semi-frozen concoction made to a secret recipe and worth ordering at least once. The bar began as a deliberately kitsch alternative to the polished style bars of its era, and that original spirit has held.
