1. Leopold Café Presse
$ | Cinquantenaire |This cozy café is the epitome of Brussels decor: bicycles hang from the ceiling, there are Tintin statues everywhere, and shelves overflow with books. It's sculpted chaos and part of a chain of cafés that is slowly taking over the city. This was the first branch, and is still the best. The bagels and ready-made sandwiches are always tasty, plus it stays open until 8 every day, by which time it's filled with busy students.
Av. de Tervueren 107, Brussels, Brussels Capital, 1040, Belgium02-736--2298Known For
- It's just a lovely, warm, charming space
- The choice of cakes is particularly good
- Around the desk is a bookshop with plenty of guides (some in English) and comics
-
2. Maison Antoine
$ | Schuman |The Maison Antoine frites stand sells the best fries in the capital, say some people, accompanied by a dizzying range of condiments; try either local fave "Bicky" or the indulgent vol-au-vent sauce.
Pl. Jourdan 1, Brussels, Brussels Capital, Belgium02-230–5456Known For
- Excellent fries
- Condiment heaven
- Picky management (be sure to clean up after yourself)
-
3. Origine
$$$$ | Schuman |A short walk from place Jourdan reveals this elegant, modern French restaurant, its pared-down, neat decor broken up with colorful prints of animals and the bustle of the open kitchen. The choice of food is equally sparse but to the point: four-course set menus deliver with imagination and no little amount of skill, letting you mix and match from your pick of cold, warm, hot, and sweet dishes on the blackboard. Lunch is a great deal at €25 for a starter and main.
Rue Général Leman 36, Brussels, Brussels Capital, 1040, Belgium02-256--6893Known For
- Original cooking that's delightfully presented
- Helpful staff and a decent selection of wines by the glass
- Good value for money

4. Berlaymont Café Brasserie
$$ | Cinquantenaire |Moules (mussels) and steaks, along with a small handful of the usual standbys, set the pace at this much-adored brasserie. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, drinks—it's pretty much all things to the large contingent of expats who have made this a popular local spot. There are plenty of burgers to keep the kids happy, too.
Rue Archimède 6, Brussels, Brussels Capital, 1000, Belgium02-720--6630Known For
- Simple, quick, crowd-pleasing brasserie food
- There's a terrace outside for the warmer weather
- Its pubby interior shows sport on some evenings
-
5. Maison Antoine
$ | |The Maison Antoine frites stand sells the best fries in the capital, accompanied by a dizzying range of condiments; try either local fave "Bicky" or the indulgent vol-au-vent sauce. It's a bit out of the way, but it's a great place to try Belgium's famous snack (the country's secret is frying the potatoes twice in beef tallow) and most of the bars that line the square will let you sit down either inside or outside and order a beer to go with your paper cone of frites. Although don't leave your greasy paper behind or you will get told off.
B1040, Unknown02-230–5456Known For
- Finger-licking-good frites
- Wide range of condiments that accompany amazing frites

6. Nona
$ | Cinquantenaire |This organic Neapolitan-style pizzeria has a couple of branches now: two (one pizzeria, one pasta joint) in St-Catherine and another opposite the eastern entrance to Cinquantenaire. In summer, it's not unusual to see locals queuing for a takeaway to sit and eat their wood-fired pizzas on the grass of the park, and it's not a bad option. But it's no hardship to sit inside, either, and the quality is always good.
Av. de Tervueren 5, Brussels, Brussels Capital, 1040, BelgiumKnown For
- Reliable local pizza that rarely disappoints
- A good selection of local craft beers
- The takeaway option is always tempting
-
7. Schievelavabo
$$ | Schuman |This sturdy Belgian chain nestles on the pedestrianized Chaussée de Wavre, just opposite place Jourdan, where you'll find slightly better dining options than around the square. It's as reliable as its gravy-soaked meats are tasty, dishing up the classics (meatballs, beery beef stews, ham and mustard sauce) amid walls plastered with old advertising posters from the '50s and '60s. It's one of a half-dozen in the city, but still worth a go.
Chau. de Wavre 344, Brussels, Brussels Capital, 1040, Belgium02-280--0083Known For
- A reliable chain with few surprises but much to savor
- It's one of the better options off place Jourdan
- It's really good value
-
8. Sowl
$ | Schuman |This popular spot among health-conscious office workers lets you fill your bowl with healthy veggies, grains, meats, and berries (or just take one of the standard blends). Everything is tasty, good for you, and the word "superfood" crops up endlessly.
Rue de la Loi 238, Brussels, Brussels Capital, 1040, Belgium02-792--5779Known For
- It's a good way to get a load of fresh inside you
- It's perfect for vegans and those with food allergies
- The breakfast bowls are good if you're on the go
