1. Domus
$$ | |This sprawling brewpub-restaurant is pretty much the city's old standby for when you've run out of ideas. It's particularly good for families, it's always packed, the menu is littered with Flemish favorites (carbonnade, meatballs, vol-au-vent), and the service is impossibly quick no matter how full it is. A lot of the food is slathered in the house beer (typically Con Domus and Nostra Domus), which funnels directly from the neighboring brewery into the restaurant. You can even get guided tours and tastings for €11. If you're there for the food, stick to the Flemish classics for a solid meal.
Tiensestraat 8, Leuven, Flanders, 3000, Belgium016-201--449Known For
- It's a cheap, popular spot for families
- It's worth it to try the beer, which is pretty good
- The "Belgian dinner plate"

2. Het Fenikshof
$$ | |While tours of the Grimbergen Abbey brewery aren't possible, you can taste the fruits of its labor at its brasserie in town, which is slightly more upmarket than you'd imagine. A pretty terrace overlooks the abbey, while the food served is unrepentantly Flemish: beery stews, gray-shrimp croquettes, Ostend-style fish stew. Everything on the menu, unsurprisingly, has a suggested beer pairing, as if you needed an excuse to try its trio of Grimbergen specials on draft: the pale ale, opus, and quadruple. The latter weighs in at a hefty 10% ABV, so it may be a sleepy bus journey back.
Abdijstraat 20, Flanders, 1850, Belgium02-306--3956Known For
- Frites, meat, and delicious, delicious beer
- The terrace is a nice spot in summer
- It's open every day

3. Restaurant 3 Fonteinen
$$$ | |Some brewery restaurants tend to be slightly chaotic affairs, relying on their draft brews to pick up where the food falls short. Not so this dining offshoot from the local 3 Fonteinen lambic brewery. The menu and cooking here are spot on and embrace more than the usual carbonnades, with a good selection of mussels in various sauces accompanying some interesting game options. Afterwards, visit its nearby Lambik-O-Droom brewpub, which has a tasting room and garden terrace. Brewery tours are only available by appointment.
Herman Teirlinckplein 3, Beersel, Flanders, 1650, Belgium02-331--0652Known For
- A cut above the usual brewery eatery
- The selection of lambic beers is naturally excellent
- The mussels are heaven

4. Restaurant Molensteen
$$$ | |Only a 10-minute walk from the castle, in the village of Gaasbeek, is this pleasant country restaurant with a pretty courtyard. Its building dates back to the late 18th century, and it has been a brewery, a tavern, and a farm in its day. Expect dishes such as horse steaks, venison tornados, and goose-liver pie with fig jam, all of which offer a more rustic take on the usual brasserie fare. A few dishes even make ample use of the local lambic beer made in these parts.
Donkerstraat 20, Gaasbeek, Flanders, 1750, Belgium02-532--0297Known For
- Reliable dining in an old-world country setting
- A friendly local welcome
- It's one of few good options within easy walking distance of the castle
