Description

Le Belgica is at 32 rue du Marché au Charbon, the street that concentrates most of the city’s queer nightlife, a few minutes from the Grand Place. Open since the mid-1980s, it is a classic choice for anyone looking for a gay bar in Brussels, and it draws a mixed, international crowd.

The room is small and lively, with a well known worn and distressed decor that has become part of its charm. DJs play regularly, and the bar publishes a monthly calendar of its nights on its website. The signature drink is the Belgica, a house recipe kept secret and served semi-frozen, and a good reason to stop by at least once.

Le Belgica works well as a stop after dinner or before heading on to a club, and the other bars of rue du Marché au Charbon are within a few steps. The same owner has run the bar for more than twenty years. Opening days vary with the calendar, so check the website or the bar’s Instagram before you go.
