One of the most happening venues in this part of town. It opens early for excellent breakfasts and continues with a substantial menu throughout the day. In the evening, the bar takes over, and it's famous for its extensive selection of Belgian beers. It even works as a club, with an eclectic mix of live music in the basement bar until the wee small hours. Then it's back to the ground floor for an early breakfast. Sadly, you have to wait until 11am for a drop of the hard stuff.
