  • 21. Den Stillen Genieter

    This long-running pub is a beer lover's paradise that stocks around 500 Belgian ales.

  • 22. Dogma Cocktails

    Oude Stad

    Dogma's speakeasy--meets--gentlemen's club vibe—all-leather Chesterfields, jazz, and candlelight—is just set dressing for the real craft that goes into its drinks. The cocktail menu arrives leather bound and covered in scribbles and notes; the drinks themselves are no less schooled, materialising with teapots spouting dry ice or bursting with fruit in an old jam jar, and crafted from homemade bitters. It's like a drink and a show in one! It's closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.

  • 23. Gollem

    Oude Stad

    Yes, it's rammed with tourists—it's on the Grote Markt after all— but it's also got an epic selection of beers (30 on tap; 400 bottles) and outside seating overlooking the city's iconic square.

  • 26. Korsakov

    Meir

    Taking its name from a neurological disorder linked to alcohol abuse, this quirky, artsy café-bar has cultivated a loyal following among the in-crowd of hipster-drenched Mechelseplein. There's live music some nights.

  • 28. Oud Arsenaal

    Meir

    This typical "brown café" (old-style bar, all dark wood and nicotine-stained walls) has been operating since 1929---and little has changed. It's been in the same family for three generations and serves up a good selection of beers (particularly some unusual gueuze and kriek beers) at a decent price—much to the delight of its dedicated locals.

  • 29. Pelgrom

    Oude Stad

    The atmospheric Pelgrom is in the vaulted brick cellars of a 16th-century tavern, and it stocks more than 100 different beers.

  • 30. Pelgrom

    Oude Stad

    The atmospheric Pelgrom is found in the vaulted brick cellars of an old 16th-century tavern beneath the Burgher House museum. Be warned: it's a bit of a tourist trap, given its medieval setting, but novelty value alone helps you to see past the group tours and steep prices.

  • 31. Sips

    This classy, corner cocktail joint attracts the well-heeled and those who know their way around a humidor. The drinks are excellent and created with homemade bitters and infusions. Cocktail maestro Manuel Wouters used to sling mojitos aboard the QE2 and is something of a local celeb in his own right.

  • 32. Ta-Nnin

    South of the Center

    Global street food paired with fine wines is the name of the game at this cozy wine bar with an urban vibe.
