Going to a club? A small tip to the bouncer is generally appreciated.

What budget to eat Bruxelles - Brussel?

It is possible to get by for less than 10 € by eating in a French fry shop. In restaurants or brasseries, the main courses à la carte will generally cost you between 15 and 30 €, even more in gastronomic restaurants. As for drinks, you will pay a little more for wine than in France, but you can make up for it with beer (price and variety).

A special beer will still be quite expensive (usually between €4.50 and €8, depending on the location), but there's always a selected beer of the month on special offer. Or happy hour at certain times of the week. Keep your eyes peeled for good places!

As in restaurants, service is included and you don't have to leave a tip, unless you want to.

In restaurants and bars, service is included in the bill, so there is no need to tip, unless you want to reward particularly attentive service.
