πŸ‘ Brazilian lover William turned this classic Flemish bar (St.-Jacob) into a vivid place where different cultures meet. Once in a while there's a concert or South American dancing, but most of the time you hup in and enjoy one of the many speciality beers served. People often mention nice, Brazilian, beers,

    Owned by a very nice Belgian-Brazilian couple. Amazing collection of rare beers! Very tasty snacks. There are often special events, announced on their Facebook page.

    The staff is very friendly and helpful. We received plenty of suggestions for drinks and enjoyed a nice chat (which is rare for the barman in Leuven). There is a very good choice of beers with focus on the locally brewed ones. You can discover new flavours and new kinds of drinks. The kitchen offers you a decent variety of nibbles to enjoy while having a drink. On top of this, there is the chance to enjoy live music from time to time. Highly recommended!

    Brazilian enough for a Brazilian living 6 years abroad (me!). My friends non-Brazilian friends also loved the food and watching the forrΓ³ class (they said they will try next time). "Bolinho de bacalhau" is a must-have. Very welcoming atmosphere.

    i'm a brazilian and i do not agree this is that brazilian, there arent any brazilians, the food does not have the brazilian touch and love. this "bar" is a disgrace sorry to say, and can i also say the food takes soooooooo long and is not warm. it tastes like raw pao de queijo!!!!!!

    Belgian - Brazilian bar. The vibe is quite nice, but the place is rather expensive for what they offer (especially the food, which is nothing special, really... The cocktails, on the other hand, are pretty good) and the service can get quite slow. At times it is possible to enjoy some live music, which is nice, although the bar lacks a proper stage for the band, which basically plays in front of the main entrance (I have only attended one live situation, I have been told they have an extra stage, but I have not seen this personally). Ok for an occasional drink and tapas.
