I don't but I know someone who does & they frog marched me across Brussels so they could shop here. They were thrilled with the selections, the price and how 'cute' the place is.

The store's pretty big considering it caters to the English-speaking population, with two floors, and plenty of variety in terms of books. The staff is extremely helpful and will help you find any book you want and even recommend you new ones (to that effect they also have a blog which they regularly update with events, such as book signings, and the latest book recommendations they have: http://waterstonesbru.blogspot.com/). They also have a great rewards card system, which I recommend to anyone who's planning on being a regular customer there. In addition, they have a fun selection of additional tchotchkes towards the entrance/exit, such as notebooks, pens, boardgames, etc, which reminds me of the Barnes and Noble bookstores you find in the US. So if you want to read books in English, don't hesitate to check the place out!

You'll find a big range of books from novels to history books and travel guides. The place is nice and I love those big stairs in the back, so charming. A bit expensive because they have to import all those books but so nice to find them in a place like this!
