| BlackHaddock (175), , England | | April 2, 2012 Hit this place after a Sunday morning of market stall and antique shop staring, we’d walked miles and were getting thirsty: our mission was to ’do’ Ixelles during the afternoon, from here it was a further walk down to Cafe Belga before finding Les Brassins for our evening meal. sadly Beermania doesn’t open on Sundays or we could have done four places.
This bar close to St Boniface Church is an open plan, very plain almost boring place to look at, both inside and out. Cafe style in layout, decor and furnishings as basic as they come. My wife didn’t like it at all.
The service was friendly and the joint was slowly filling up with families having Sunday lunch outings. I had their last bottle of ’De Konnick’ and the wife a ’Palm’. Well behaved children now seemed to be the main customers, sat with their casually dressed young parents. We had eaten at a stall a little earlier, so didn’t eat anything here. What food we saw however, looked good.
The beer list wasn’t very interesting and although the bar is obviously popular with locals it isn’t the sort of place a ’beerhunter’ would find inspiring enough to stay long, so we left.
Other reviewers have stated how large the beerlist was, we were given a pretty large menu, but with very few beers on it. Having been given the last bottle of De Konnick might be an indication the beers aren’t so important here any more | | Bierkrug (214), Idar-Oberstein (In East Africa), Germany | | September 27, 2011 [ Updated October 3, 2011 ] This place is located in the middle of the African part of the city. I must have just missed BelgaBart or maybe we were both there and did not know it. Anyway the place itself is not bad. A little run down but ok. Beer selection outside of Belgium would be sought after but in the city there are much better places. I can say for Brussels it was cheap. Ok if your in that area of town but don’t seek it out. | | BelgaBart (25), Antwerpen, BELGIUM, Belgium | | September 27, 2011 Athmosphere is wonderfull. Great selection (aldo not so big). Staff is nice, but don’t know so much about beer though. Super nice to have a meal there | | BriSava (77), , Japan | | April 19, 2011 Beer selection is good.
Employee training is not so good. | | altonbrownd (146), Brussels, Belgium | | February 2, 2011 [ Updated May 19, 2011 ] Hip and popular brasserie on a nice square in the EU area. Enjoyed two new beers there today on a terrace. Well done. | | eManu (38), Kuala Lumpur & Brussels, Belgium | | January 24, 2010 A very nice and fun brassery type of place, nice beer list, and some of the special of the month. Good food and good value. Nice staff, cute girls. | | JoeinEscazú (200), San Jose, Costa Rica | | June 28, 2007 A fun neighborhood, interesting people-watching in St. Boniface square. Short walk from BeerMania. The beer list has a few surprises and plenty of quality. There’s several De Dolle, and some Dupont and St. Feuillien here, among others. A few lambics, but no serious ones listed on the menu. Lots of tables outside on the sidewalk. I’ve had an excellent meal here and a poor one--but the frites were solid and helped to make up for it. Come here if you’re tasting at BeerMania and need some supper with a solid beer list. |
