D'EN BELGE
Read moreThis little store is filled from floor to ceiling with all the best that Brussels, and Belgium, has to offer: a great cuvée of gueuze, wines from the 4 corners of the country, liqueurs, fresh fruit juices, pâtés, cookies and even chocolates and gift baskets. Enough to bring a taste of Belgium home... or to give as a gift. If you can't find your way around, or need advice on the products on sale (especially beers and wines), don't hesitate to ask the owner, who will be delighted to explain everything you need to know about your future purchase.
JAT' CAFÉ
Read moreOn the way between Place Royale and Porte de Namur, you can easily find Jat'Café. After two hours of shopping, we happily settle into one of these comfortable, vintage(and harmoniously out of tune) armchairs. We enjoy this moment of serenity after ordering a small coffee with a mascarpone-sanded apple-cinnamon. At lunchtime, the soft, well-stuffed bagel or the chicken and peach salad with tabbouleh and pine nuts will help to satisfy your hunger. Other address: 116, ch. de Charleroi in Saint-Gilles.
COCO DONUTS STORE
Restaurant with terrace in Brussels offering homemade speculoos, lemon, ...Read more
GALLER GRAND PLACE
Read moreLess than ten metres from the Grand Place, what more beautiful setting could there be for the diverse products of the Galler firm: pralines, ganaches, fresh cream, marzipan, truffles and macaroons! It is especially for the richly filled sticks (café liégeois, Mandarine Napoléon, blanc coco...) that one comes. So many delights with an undeniably Belgian character! The fact that the brand has gone under the Qatari flag has not altered the quality of the products and the brand continues to be one of the court's patented suppliers.
KAKI CAKE BAR
Read moreIt's quite a unique concept. After returning from Asia, Gwen decided to combine Eastern flavors with Western techniques in her tea/pastry shop. The result is Ka Bao, essentially a soufflé sponge cake with cream (speculoos-raspberry, mango-coconut) of incomparable lightness. But alongside this, you'll find Japanese-style cheesecakes, savory baos and the famous mochi. To complete the escape, various Vietnamese-style coffees and milk teas are available. Daily brunch on reservation.
LA SEPTIÈME TASSE
Read moreLa Septième Tasse has built an image of reference in teas and accessories. More than 300 teas and herbal teas are available in bulk at the entrance of the store. The staff is always ready to give good advice. The second part of the store is dedicated to accessories: teapots in various materials (terracotta, stoneware, porcelain, glass or cast iron), isotherms, double-walled... As well as a series of truly exceptional pieces, part of the living national heritage of Japan. The Gong Fucha and the Cha No Yu will no longer hold any secrets for you!
LA VIVRIÈRE
Read moreAurélie is at the head of this sustainable grocery store. Fresh seasonal fruit and vegetables, fresh meat, cold cuts, cheese, honey, drugs, bread, eggs... The model is that of a cooperative of producers and consumers who value the distribution of quality products in a short circuit. La Vivrière works with a team of about fifty sustainable farmers and craftsmen from all walks of life, mainly from Wallonia. The aim is to have a maximum impact on the local economy by limiting the number of intermediaries and thus to have access to healthy and local products.
JACO ALIMENTARE
Read moreJaco is a whole concept dedicated to the pleasures of Italian cuisine: a restaurant, a stylish bar and a delicatessen. For this, owners Charles and Laure de Pauw called on Domenico Lamanna, a connoisseur and lover of fine produce. There's everything you need to prepare a feast: pasta, olive oil, a range of cheeses with mouth-watering names, the best Italian charcuterie and a selection of transalpine wines, among others. And if you don't feel like cooking, the catering corner is there to satisfy you.
CHOCOLATERIE LEDOUX
Read moreDelfien De Tavernier, artisan chocolatier, opens the doors of her workshop to groups of visitors, not only to explain what she does there, but also so that you can make your own chocolates! Guided tours are reserved for groups and last 1 hour. Chocolate-making workshops last 2 hours and are for groups of at least 6 people, aged 9 and over. These workshops include a tasting, a drink and the equivalent of a €15 box of chocolates you've made yourself.
WOSTYN MUSTARD MUSEUM
Read moreAfter a visit to the museum (63, Oude Gentweg), you will not be able to leave without a visit to the shop to buy the "Mostaard Wostyn". This mustard is natural: without preservatives, colorants or thickeners, and with a unique taste, unlike many mustards sold in shops. In the shop, you will also find drinks such as a mustard liqueur (if, if!), a beer with mustard seeds or mustard pralines. Uncommon culinary discoveries that will make you a true connoisseur!

BELGOBON LE COMPTOIR
Read moreBelgobon is a catering company created by Juliette and Corentin, but they have now opened a grocery store in Schaerbeek. Among the delights of the grocery store are home-made take-away meals with a maximum of local, seasonal and, if possible, organic products. Belgobon also offers home-made bread and pastries, jams, sweet and savoury biscuits, cold cuts, cheeses, beers and wines. The shop does not lack choice and moreover, it is good, it is Belgian! Do not deprive yourself.
BY MICHÈLE CHOCOLATERIE
Read moreMichèle Prunier is the mom who, urged on by her son Christophe, opened her chocolate shop in 2018 in Herstal. Christophe and his partner Coralline then left to train with top chefs, before returning to Liège to open a second boutique. Chocolates, macaroons and pastries compete for the counter space. The base is Valrhona fair-trade chocolate. Other ingredients are as local as possible (milk, fruit from local farmers...). Original chocolates are subtly combined with spices, herbs and fruit. A real success!
LA FLEUR DU PAIN FLAGEY
Read moreA Frenchman who has lived in Belgium for a quarter of a century, Laurent Richard has made a name for himself by delivering his bread to such prestigious establishments as the Villa Lorraine and Rob's grocery stores. Using additive-free flours, he produces a range of particularly tasty breads.
