After trying another well known cocktail bar in Brussels, we were recommended The Modern Alchemist…read more We'd known about this spot, but hadn't yet given it a try. Since the wife and I have really been into cocktails lately, trying to learn as much as we can, and trying new things, we decided to check them out on a Friday night. The bartender, Mica was so kind and friendly to my wife and me. We sat at the bar to watch him work, and to admittedly pick his brain when it came to ingredients. The wife tried a classic Mai Tai and I had their Cognac Safe Ticket. You can find descriptions of their house cocktails in the pictures. I absolutely loved the CST, and found it to be so delicious with it's hint of pear. We ordered a cheese plate and two more drinks, a Dill Breaker and An Apple A Day Keeps the COVID Away... Which despite the long name, was easily, without a doubt, the one of the best cocktails my wife and I have ever had! We enjoyed talking to them about their rums, especially their Trinidadian rums. They let us try some vermouths and other ingredients we and been curious about, and the bartender was so open to all our questions and provided some great conversation as well! The vibe of this place is great. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a nice date spot, or for great cocktails. We can't wait to go back!

When we asked for some information about the wine they sell by the glass, the waitress just raised her eyes to the ceiling! making us feel like complete idiots! Sorry.... not all of us are wine connaisseurs! So we decided to play it safe & ordered cocktails. They turned up to to be really average. Even the promising hibiscus mojito. Then we got shifted to an other table mid-drinks in a very rude manner because it turned out the table we were sitting at was booked. But no one said anything about it and there were no "reserved" sign on the table. We found the staff just unbelievably unfriendly (and we were just 2 couples having a quiet drink, not a wild gang!) The only positive element is that this place is really quiet early-evening so you can have a good natter with your friends

This has to be one of the cutest bars I've ever come across and the interior is unlike no other. The maximum seating inside is probably about 20 folks but they have a few tables outside for you to enjoy a few drinks. What stood out to me was discovering Plumette is also owned by the folks behind the coffee shop next door, Lazy Bear. The mixture of velvet, dark woods, dried flowers, and hues of glamour had me in awe. With a corner bar fully prepped to make some of the best cocktails you've ever had are just a mere order away. Plumette offered some of the best drinks I've ever had. If you're looking for a signature cocktail they proudly serve a drink called The Plantation. A few ingredients within the cocktail were amber rum, marula, lime juice, pineapple juice emulsion, peruvian bittern, and free coffee seeds. We ended up here for two rounds of cocktails and it was a lovely experience.

This time, we went to get the taste of bad, watery cocktails from dinner out of our mouths. The wife was interested in trying absinthe the drip way. She got an absinthe vert, canne to the table with the fountain, sugar cube, the whole shabang. I ordered Corto Maltesse the Mandarine Napoléon which had Litchi et Cardamome, Prosecco, Eau Pétillante, Citron. Delicious. I can recommend this spot highly for the gin, of course, as well as their cocktails. Well prepared. Also, only 6€ for the absinthe? Looks like we'll be coming more often to share a fountain!

The bartender from another local bar told us to check this place out, and although it ended up being a little bit of a search mission, it was well worth the detour. When we arrived they asked if we had a reservation (Sat evening). We said no, and they said that was okay, they had seats downstairs. There's a prohibition like feel meets 1920s themed mental patient/witch doctor like vibe, making you want to instagram every little thing you see. We walked past the first floor, down some stairs to a little area with couch like seats and then down to the downstairs floor. Interesting bar with lots of unique contraptions in glass underneath the actual bar, as well as a giant stuffed lion with a bandage wrapped around his head. They had a fair impressive list of cocktails, but keep In mind, none of them were cheap. The waiter did also promise to make whatever drink we liked. I ended up going with the Pisco Sour and my gf had a random drink they made which she really liked. Definitely an awesome bar...reminds me of something great you would see in Brooklyn!
