    This has become our regular morning coffee stop when staying in Ixelles. The friendly and welcoming service is the hallmark of Natural caffe. The barista and waitrons make you feel as though you are a regular, even if you're visiting for the first time! This will always be my coffee stop whenever I'm in Brussels. An absolute gem. The coffee is great. It has a slightly fruity and acidic taste. The service is fast and always friendly. They have a wide variety of croissants, pastries and cakes. The ones I managed to taste so far were all fresh and delicious. They have a few special menus for breakfast, lunch and dinner that I'm keen to try on my next visits. The carrot cake looks absolutely divine! There is seating for about 30 people inside. My favourite spot is at the window where you can watch people commuting to work. There are a few spots outside, and in summer I can imagine this is a nice place to enjoy your coffee.

    Bought some espresso beans from them and they turned out to be very very over roasted. The coffee beans are very oily which is a sign of improper roasting. I can’t use this in my automatic machine otherwise it’ll ruin the grinder and I’ll never be able to get the oil out of it.

    Great for coffee lovers. Big range of lovely sweet treats too. Not much tea on offer (I was offered black, green or red I seem to remember). The black tea I had had great flavour. Handily located by tram stop Bailli. Seems like a popular spot, nice vibe.

    This one’s grown on me slowly. It’s a fantastic spot to grab a coffee (with a lil sweet treat) and seat yourself in a corner by the window so you can watch other humans, pets, trams, what have you - go about their usual business 😅

    It's a cute little cafe! Service is fast and friendly and they have a good matcha latte which is so hard to find! I also recommend their croissant.

    While the location, interior and service are all excellent, selling a ceasar salad to take away (no sauce, a few bits of chicken and some lettuce) for €17 is a bit much. Coffee is top quality though

  • 5/5 Mariano M. 2 years ago on Google
    Great coffee. We went there to buy ground coffee and the guy who welcomed helped us with the choice plus offering us to taste two different coffee to help us with the decision. Really worth it. The coffee is excellent, you should give it a try!

    It is nice you can choose between different kinds of coffee beans. I am no coffee expert but, I really liked the coffee and the toast with salmon was really tasty. The people who work there are very friendly.

    Very good V60 coffee and chai latte, tasty cheesecake & chia mango pudding! The service was great. I recommend !

  • 5/5 Andrew P. 1 year ago on Google • 11 reviews
    Nice clean cafe with a stylish interior. Good amount of seating with lots of natural light. Friendly service, good coffee, good pastries! The main menu is in English.

  • 5/5 Joshua S. 1 year ago on Google • 8 reviews
    Artisan sandwiches and salads made by a professional who is clearly very passionate about food. This is becoming one of my favourite places to have lunch. Sandwiches are made to order by the owner. He is super helpful and friendly, will even suggest what you should eat if you are unsure. 100% recommend this independently owned business. Great food!

  • 3/5 Isabelle I. 10 months ago on Google
    Really good coffee (love the marocchino there), nice selection of sandwiches. A bit pricy though and the atmosphere is cold, not particularly comfortable. Better for a quick stop.

  • 5/5 Waleed Z. 11 months ago on Google
    Most definitely the best cafe in Brussels if you are looking for the highest quality coffee. I would recommend the Ethiopie Bombe Sidama. Of all the cafes that roast their own beans Natural Cafe is the best in my humble opinion after trying all the others and being a proud resident of Brussels for over 7 years.

  • 5/5 neo n. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious home roasted coffee in Brussels! From sweet to strong espresso taste, everyone will find the right taste experience. Great and positive team as well!

  • 1/5 Mathilde H. 8 months ago on Google • 3 reviews
    I find it pretty concerning in today’s context that your fans and lights are on, saturday night at 1am… Why would you even do that? It’s pointless and so bad for the environment Get better

  • 4/5 Hannu �. 7 months ago on Google
    A nice place to have breakfast, read one of the many international newspapers available or use the free Wi-Fi. I loved the croissants (1 euro) and the expresso (2.3 euro). You order and pay at the counter before choosing a place to sit, at one of the big tables or on a stool facing the shop window. The interior is fresh and clean. Natural Caffè is open from 7:30 a.m. (9 on Saturday and 10 on Sunday) to 7 p.m. (6 on Sunday). It’s only a few stops by tram 93 or 94 from the posh shopping area around Place Stéphanie and Place Louise.

    Best coffee and coffee beans I tried so far around, very polite and helpful staff. Great place to start your day.

  • 5/5 Ruba K. 1 year ago on Google
    my favourite coffeeshop ever the atmosphere the taste of the coffee the service is amazing & the best flat white 🤩

  • 5/5 Cristina F. 1 year ago on Google
    It’s been a pleasure to have breakfast at Caffè Louise during all the days of our vacations. Their attention is special with all guests, they are very polite! Of course the coffe, sandwich and pastery is also amazing.

  • 3/5 Yann M. 1 year ago on Google
    I came to just order one Café Latte, my first coffee of the day. I asked for a big one, so they charge me 5.10 for the Maxi Latte. Up to here, all good. My surprise was that the Maxi Latte was in fact Maxi foam. The latte amount was exactly the same as normal Latte. But you get to enjoy more foam for 1.30 euros more ! Awesome. Would not recommend going there again. Petty moves for just more pennies. Shame

  • 5/5 Bronwyn F. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing filtered coffee, omelette, customer service, and wifi. I would recommend this for a meet-up spot, working remotely, or people watching outside. As an American working in Brussels, this place brought me so much comfort and joy. I will be back.

  • 5/5 Daan A. T. 1 year ago on Google
    Great coffee and food! The service is great and the atmosphere is really welcoming. Definitely makes you want to go back and try more of the things.

  • 4/5 Linda S. 2 years ago on Google
    Great place to wind down with a really good cup of coffee. Relaxed atmosphere.

  • 5/5 Paolo C. 1 year ago on Google
    The kindness of the staff is remarkable, and makes this place a smiling oasis of peace and good mood within the city. They know and love coffee, which is reflected in the high quality of what they prepare. They also offer a huge variety of blends (roasted by them) for sale (in grains or already ground).

  • 5/5 Syl C. 1 year ago on Google
    Great coffee in a beautifully renovated space. One of my favourite cafes in Brussels. Try Marocchino!

  • 5/5 amélie b. 2 years ago on Google
    Real Italian coffee shop, this place is an institution in Brussels. The staff is super friendly, they serve and brew great coffee and they have a broad offer of sweet treats!

  • 5/5 Oliver B. 2 years ago on Google
    Rodolphe has done a great job with the refurbishment. The quality of the coffee is superp and you cannot fault the atmosphere and service. Best of all: my dog is welcome too. Great place!

  • 5/5 Keat Yee Y. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing coffee and staff, would definitely recommend

  • 4/5 Agustin C. 4 years ago on Google
    it's a comfortable place to work or meet up .There are plenty of power outlets and they provide fast internet too. Easy to connect with no captive portal. The coffe is great and I had a couple of muffins which were also very tasty and fresh.

  • 5/5 Agron N. 3 years ago on Google
    Best coffee ☕ in this area !

  • 5/5 Celine R. 3 years ago on Google
    Coffee is Excellent and the staff very kind. You can also find good pastries, sandwiches and desserts.

  • 5/5 Jurgita G. 4 years ago on Google
    A place to go and enjoy excellent coffee and food! And the staff is amazing: they take care even of the things you don't think :) I ordered a coffee for myself but got the second one (without coffee of course) for my 2y old! Thank you!

  • 4/5 Mav “Maveric” e. 4 years ago on Google
    Really good coffee and fair selection of good cakes and lunch sandwiches/snacks. The decor and super quick barista reminds me of contemporary cafes in Italy. This cafe is one of the better ones in this area where you will find quite a few chain cafes/lunch places. Toilets accessible from 5 small steps.

  • 5/5 Robyn M. 4 years ago on Google
    Nice cozy, lively place for a rainy day. Full range of coffees and very friendly staff for a place so busy. I had a decaf, which is not always easy to find. The baked goods look really good too.

  • 5/5 Matthew D. 5 years ago on Google
    Arrived late in the afternoon so they only had a couple of baguettes left. The baguette was lovely and was worth the money. Helpful staff that walked me through the ordering process. Recommended!

  • 4/5 DX A. 2 years ago on Google
    I really like this place and the staff, but the cappuccino is a bit overpriced for a very small sized-cup (especially that you can find a lot of good coffee shops in the area with similar or better quality)
