    My husband was made wise to this beer bar by a friend of his, and I'm so glad! A friendly and knowledgeable proprietor. A great selection of beers, both Belgian and imports (❤ you, Founder's!). Beautiful seating indoors and functional seating outdoors. Off the main drag. Free restroom! Pretty much my idea of a fun place to relax and try brews. Thank you Jeroen!

    I visited this bar with friends and had a fantastic time. The bar offers a diverse selection of both cold and warm drinks, including a wide range of beers. You can communicate your flavor preferences, and the bartender will present you with options to taste before making your final choice. This personalized approach adds a unique touch and enhances the overall experience. The atmosphere of the bar is enjoyable, and there are various games available for entertainment. This creates a fun and engaging environment for guests. The bartender deserves a special mention for being polite and helpful, making the visit even more pleasant. The cleanliness of the restroom is notable, reflecting a level of care that sets this bar apart from others. In terms of pricing, it's reasonable and aligns well with the overall experience. If you're looking for a bar with a wide variety of drinks, interactive tasting, and a pleasant atmosphere, this place is a must-visit. The combination of unique offerings, friendly staff, and cleanliness make it a standout choice for a memorable night out.

    A very cozy bar with a little quirky decor. Not the boring everyday, but just that little bit special. The range of special, non-mainstream beers is huge. Especially Dr. Beer Jeroen is great. His knowledge about beers is incredible. He will also always try to recommend a suitable beer for your taste and, if possible, even have a taste. If you are looking for something novel, this is the place to be!

    A super cool shop. We were able to try a few beers and were given very good advice. A visit here is definitely worth it!

  • 5/5 Sven E. 5 months ago on Google • 157 reviews
    A strict medical facility that has the right medication for acute hypoplasia. An incredible number of beers that are presented very expertly. You can get an overview of Belgian beers in a nice atmosphere. Or lose it because the beer menu runs to five pages. Just go there every evening to have your under-hopping cured...

  • 4/5 naveen s. 3 months ago on Google • 115 reviews New
    A very beautiful bar with very unique interior. The they have a very good collection of beers and the a small beer shop for unique beers. The host is very friendly and has a very good knowledge of beers in general. We had a good talk with the bartender on different beers, their taste and origins. It's bit expensive but worth the experience and vibe; a really nice place to hangout.

    Brilliant experience. Highly recommend. They have a thousand different beers, anything you can imagine! Service is just beautiful: the bartender can help you navigate the menu and recommends stuff for your taste. Will definitely come again when I'm in Antwerp. Cucumber beer for the win!

    Nice cafe. Too bad the special beers are not served in the right glasses.

  • 5/5 Wim B. 1 month ago on Google • 4 reviews New
    Super cozy beer café with lots of choice and expert explanation! You can even play board games there. A real winner!

  • 5/5 Nico K. 8 months ago on Google • 3 reviews
    One of my favorite places around the MAS! Can't say much about food, but if you're going to a bar called "Dr. Beer" you shouldn't expect more than a few snacks on the side. Aside from the super comfortable atmosphere, the best thing about this place is the vast knowledge of the staff. I rarely look at the menu and just describe what kind of beer I would like to drink - 9/10 times the bartender hands me a beer that exactly matches my expectations. Beer prices can be a little bit on the higher side depending on your order, but it's also beer you can't / won't drink at the regular places. There are also some card & board games around the bar to play with, the music is also very nice and not too loud.

  • 5/5 test i. 1 year ago on Google
    I didn’t realize there was an actual ‘Dr Beer’ until meeting Jeroen; a phenomenal host and owner. I had 2 very good beers recommended to me, based on my tastes. As it was early, my plan was to have dinner and return later to Dr Beer. Unfortunately it was my last night in Antwerp, and I wasn’t able to return — which was the biggest regret of my trip! Jeroen also made some tourist recommendations that I visited the next morning, and the ‘secret basement’ restaurant the night before was great!!! I can’t thank you enough for the conversation and your hospitality. I look forward to returning 🙂

  • 5/5 Rich D. 11 months ago on Google
    Went on a Sunday when they have classic dancing which made a wonderful atmosphere. Great beer selection and highly knowledgeable staff.

  • 5/5 Jonathan C. 1 year ago on Google
    Food: 5/5 the beer selection is local and fantastic. I’ve had the All Hail Krampus and it’s all that it lived up to be. Environment: 5/5 cozy bar right in old town town. Strong wood beams and amber lighting made the place feel like an old timer tavern with a modern twist. Price: 5/5 all reasonably priced for its location. Would definitely recommend checking this place out if you’re in town!

  • 5/5 Kenneth V. 1 year ago on Google
    Great atmosphere and way to many beers to choose from. A lot of non-alcoholic variants as well, which is nice for someone who visits Antwerp a lot by car.

  • 5/5 Thomas J. 1 year ago on Google
    This place probably has the most beers on the menu in Antwerp. You can tell the bartender what kind of beers and tastes you like, and he will suggest you something to try. And it is really accurate! You can also play some games inside. Top bar! 🍻

  • 4/5 Olmo G. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 Nate K. 4 years ago on Google
    Stumbled upon the bar on the way back from the nearby museum at around 5pm and glad I went in. Has a great selection of both Belgian and non Belgian beers, obviously finely curated. Dr Beer himself and I had a great chat about Belgian beer and helped me choose some beers out to take home. Definitely recommend and will be back again!

  • 5/5 Nahal 4 years ago on Google

    A quaint little bar in a big up and comer neighbourhood in antwerp. The selection of beer is surprisingly good, one of the few places with a decent international drinks menu. Their snacks and tapa's are of remarkably high quality, way more than we expected for a bar. Service was definitely friendly, and acoustics were decent.

  • 4/5 Alessandro P. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Well camouflaged place, near the Scheldt and the dock. Very well stocked with beers, the owner also recommends very well with food pairings. The interior is a recovery of a port warehouse, the ceiling has been left in place and there are a couple of support columns. Informal and welcoming. All in all honest prices, given also the beautiful location. I for a bottled craft beer and a dish with excellent goat cheese I managed with less than 10 euros. (Original) Locale ben mimetizzato, vicino alla Schelda e alla darsena. Molto ben fornito di birre, il titolare consiglia molto bene anche per quanto riguarda gli abbinamenti con il cibo. L'interno è un recupero di un magazzino portuale, il soffitto è rimasto travato e ci sono un paio di colonne di sostegno. Informale e accogliente. Prezzi tutto sommato onesti, vista anche la bella posizione. Io per una birra artigianale in bottiglia e un piatto con dell'ottimo formaggio di capra me la sono cavata con meno di 10 euro.

    (Translated by Google) Cozy business, nice to sit down, menu with a lot of different beers, now also Belgian ;-) and a bartender with a good understanding of things. All beers are classified by taste, brewer, origin and% are listed. And if you want to be surprised then you give the bartender your personal taste and you get a topper. Also different beers for sale to take away. (Original) Gezellige zaak, leuk om zitten, kaart met zéér veel verschillende biertjes, nu ook Belgische ;-) en een barman met verstand van zaken. Alle bieren zijn ingedeeld per smaak, brouwer, oorsprong en % staan vermeld. En wil je je laten verrassen dan geef je de barman even uw persoonlijke smaak door en krijg je een toppertje. Ook verschillende bieren te koop om mee te nemen.

He knows you very well to recommend a delicious beer (even to someone who is more likely to drink wine than beer!). An experience! Very nice! (Original) Gezellig zitten in een fijne ambiance.
