👍 good place, but when we ordered some nachos many of them were broken into small pieces so it was hard to dip them in the sauce. People often mention happy, hour, cocktails, nice, Good,

    Cozy bar if not crowded if you want to talk with your friends. Not overly expensive. Just a greater choice of softs would be nice.

    We were waiting for 20 minutes and the barman was helping others the whole time (even those queuing for 2 mins). Then we were 3 minutes later for happy hour and we were not eligible for happy hour. Will never return, worse service in Brussels.

    Simple and straightforward watering hole located near Université de libre Bruxelles. A good selection of beers along with 2 for 1 happy hour deals from 4-10 pm. Has an outdoor seating space at the back. Good for drinking sessions with friends but can get a bit loud.

    Good place with nice terrace in the back. However, we cannot stay in the terrace after 10pm and it's really small inside.

    Very nice place! In the earth of Brussels ULB (Cimetière d'ixelles )

    If you like either stools or chairs with no backs, this is the bar for you. (Not talking about the terrace here).

    This was my one of the favorites bars in my neighborhood. One week ago we went there for a drink and unexpectedly we got 4 drinks (happy hour)! Yesterday I came with a friend, I asked about happy hour (was 19:30) and talked with a nice barman - i wanted to take 2 cocktails gin with tonic classic and 2 cocktails gin with orange. I talked with a lady, explained what we need (2 now and 2 later), she agreed. Actually I confirmed it even later to be sure we are on the same page. I paid 24 (for 4 in my opinion) and when i came back for the 2nd round, she said that she is really sorry but those cocktails were premium and they are not included in happy hour. First - i had it a week ago, second - on the board with happy hour i see ‘cocktails’ and three - the most important - it was confirmed. She said that she is really sorry and just the classic gin and tonic were on happy hours and actually she had no solution for my issue. I said that i am not happy, that she confirmed my order and she said ‘yes, be back after’. Why she didn’t inform me about ‘premium cocktails’ and that the classic gin and tonic bought separately would fit into the promo? Actually my yesterday’s cocktails had no spices (so was just extra lemon to a classic gin and tonic). I dont like to give 1 or 2 stars but I dont like to pay for someone’s fault.

    Great bar. The Happy Hour on cocktails is a good deal. The bar men are very friendly. Good location in a school neighbourhood.

    Good place, good music, the bar tenders are nice!!! When is busy is not so ideal, because the place is narrow, and the bar tenders have to wash the glasses, and picked them up from the tables, so sometimes they cannot take your order for a while, if is crowded, but out of that is perfect! Close to many things so ideal to move around and walk 😄
