Le Corbeau, Brussels

For tourists seeking an authentic, historical pub-tavern experience in Brussels, Le Corbeau fits the bill perfectly. This beautifully preserved establishment has been around since 1847 and offers an interior decked out in wood – including tables, chairs, and walls – as well as a wide selection of Belgian specialty beers, making it a must-visit for beer enthusiasts.

Also worth mentioning is the rather extensive lunch menu featuring a local classic, 'stoemp', which includes sausage, egg, and mashed potatoes, all at a very reasonable price. Beyond beers, you'll find a variety of spirits, cocktails, wines, and other beverages to wet your whistle.

As the evening progresses, Le Corbeau's guests often hit the dance floor, and some have even been known to dance on the tables. It's a lively spot for those looking to enjoy both drinks and music.
