Festive and gourmet restaurants: our top picks

Le Conteur
Damien Blachier

What's should we do this evening: go out for dinner or dance the night away? Why not both? Brussels is home to a number of hybrid addresses that are both festive and gastronomic. They offer services that awaken all your senses, with even more electrifying moments after dark.

Imagine yourself enjoying a meal with your friends - a tempting thought. But a meal with music that builds to a crescendo is the recipe for an unforgettable night! A few dance steps between the starter and the main course, napkins swirling between drinks or hands clapping rhythmically as you wait for dessert: you'll find these vibrant atmospheres at the addresses below. 

Lily's restaurant & club

Plunge into a decor worthy of the Roaring Twenties at Lily’s, at the foot of the IT Tower on avenue Louise. Thanks to its sparkling reputation, it has been packed out ever since it opened. Here you can enjoy cuisine with influences from around the world and delicious signature cocktails. The club opens at 22:30 from Thursday to Saturday. Good to know: restaurant guests have priority.

Espace Louise 480, 1050 Ixelles

Lily's

Volta Supper Club

Do you like good vibes and unpretentious venues? Then head to Volta. They serve delicious pizzas in a relaxed atmosphere. And, if you look hard enough, you'll find ‘the bar with no name’ that we not at liberty to talk about. It's said to have a great atmosphere... but shhh, we've already said too much!

Le Conteur

Here too, particular attention has been paid to the atmosphere. Subdued lighting, a cosy bar and an open kitchen all contribute to the friendly atmosphere. Le Conteur takes you on a journey through the flavours of the Middle East. The first sitting is rather quiet, but from 20:00 on, the atmosphere heats up. You won't be able to resist the urge to move! 

Rue du Marché aux Poulets 32, 1000 Brussels

Bagheera

Step into the festive jungle of Bagheera and be treated to a feast for your eyes, as well as your taste buds! The dishes are beautifully served and will delight lovers of gourmet aesthetics. The menu changes with the seasons and international trends. The atmosphere is lively all year round, with a winning combination of signature cocktails and urban music.
