Located between Porte de Hal and Parvis Saint-Gilles, this Coop was started in 2007 by a team of like minded idealists, disgruntled by the degradation of the environment and anxious to do something about it.

They go out of their way to turn passive consumers into active participants, by providing ample information about producers, craftsmen, as well as parts of the world present on their shelves through dried fruits, coffee, chocolate, bamboo bowls, Indian cotton children's clothing, etc...

The Chaussée d'Ixelles in Brussels is a pedestrian street located between Porte de Namur and Place Flagey.

Recent renovation work has also been criticized, with unfinished finishes and damaged sidewalks. Despite this, the Chaussée d'Ixelles remains a popular thoroughfare for locals and tourists alike, offering a varied shopping and dining experience.

On the ground floor of the restaurant Tan, this very healthy and organic shop is well known to lovers of organic food and fair trade products.

Who said veganism wasn't gourmet? At Buddy Buddy's, they make dried fruit treats: peanut butter, hazelnut butter, almond butter, cinnamon butter... everything is roasted and toasted on site, and organic.

The look of the café is surprising: it is as if cut in two by a corner painted hazelnut color and the other, creamy white. Bold, like their nut butters!
