The Details: Walk upstairs from the Paysan wine bar and you will find one of the most brilliant and unique bars in the city. Designed to look like a literal rocky cavern (complete with gnome statues and twinkling lights), it is a dedicated Belgian beer bar. They offer an absolutely staggering selection of rare, authentic Belgian beers on tap and in bottles, all served in their correct, distinctive glassware.
“Tough little spot to find - it’s tucked above a wine bar and there’s basically no indication it’s there apart from a small chalkboard. Was heaving on both floors (the wine bar downstairs and the Belgian beer bar upstairs), which is a good sign for a Saturday, but the place was so…”
“I've walked past this place a few times as I could never see the entrance. Now I know that you have to go through Paysan bar below and up the stairway to gain access. The pub decor has numerous gnomes and mushroom stools around the bar that make the interior look a bit different…”
“Great little find. Wine down stairs and beer upstairs 🍻 Wonderful selection of Belgian 🇧🇪 and other strong beers😁 Good selection of memorabilia to liken the place to a brown cafe in Holland 🇳🇱 Nice juke box for music 🎶 Should have had the real la chouff not the session ale…”
“A unique bar with two floors. A wide selection of beers were available and also a few German beer options. Staff were friendly and fast. Relatively limited seating specially if a busy day. No parking available as it is located in the city center.”
“This is a truly unique venue. It serves a wide range of drinks and can get very busy. The entrance is through a wine bar and up a staircase.”
