Glow

Cafe Bar Coffee shop

👍 Was lured into Glow because of the nice music they play on the street, really fits the concept. They have nice coffees and I must say that they are really delicious! But one big minus, and that are the prices. 10€ for an avocado sandwich is a bit over the top in my opinion. Let’s be reasonable. People often mention chocolate, coffee,

    Cute, reasonably priced coffee shop with tea, hot chocolate and a small sandwich menu. Very welcoming staff. Some additional seating upstairs as well.

    Very cute place but the filter coffee I order had a strange taste

    Our craving for caffeine & chocolate at Glow was less satisfying than we anticipated. Wifey’s cappuccino was average, my hot chocolate was hot milk and chocolate chunks ... that’s not a hot chocolate folks! C’mon, this is Belgium - we can do better, we must do better. We paid around 10€ in total (cappuccino, hot chocolate and cheesecake). Personally I am unfortunately not too enthused and would not recommend (for cappuccino go to Cafe Mundi; for hot chocolate go to “Het Paleis”)

    Ein wunderbarer Ort um am Fenster einen außergewöhnlichen und leckeren Kaffee (auch mit Mandelmilch verfügbar) zu trinken. Wir hatten ein Granola und ein Croissant zum Frühstück und es war sehr lecker. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend!

    The best chai latte I’ve had since a long time. The healthy chocolate cake is very tasty

    A good, cozy place with sweet type of coffee. From the street the place looks small, but they have second floor with additional room and seats. The barista was very charming and friendly. They have patio as well. Just two tables, but it’s perfect for the small street.

    3 days of checking out cafes in Antwerp and we stumbled upon GLOW! The best flat white in Antwerp for sure and a place not afraid to be different. Awesome owner/barista, friendly and welcoming. Authentic (real) cafes like GLOW are hard to come by in a world of phoney hipster looking joints. Highly recommended and well worth missing our train for!

👍 Great atmosphere. Unique decoration. Lots of variety in drinks - I ordered Miss T Luice beer which they didn’t have, so I ordered another one, of course not a big problem.- We went there around 6 pm. The live jazz music was really amazing but too short - like 30 minutes from when we sat- which I wis...
