You can hear the bells of the Cathedral whilst enjoying a drink on the terras and feel the vibrant athmosphere. Annabel welcomes you with a smile to die for and a big heart that has the capacity to embrace the entire city. The menu has a selection of Spanish & Italian wines and some nice & simple tapas. It's a great place to meet new people because Barbel gives you that travel vibe!

On a sunny Sunday my husband and I went for a walk and stumbled upon Belgian Wines. So we thought…read morewhy not? The interieur is low key and is both a wine bar and a wine shop. You can sit and enjoy a glass or buy a bottle to go. We decided to do both and the wines didn't disappoint. There are also meat and cheese plates available - maybe next time! We spoke briefly with one of the owners about the shop. If you eat around Antwerp, a lot of the wines will look familiar. It turns out that Belgian Wines is their supplier. I am a strong believer in eating local, so I really like that Belgian wines are being promoted in the city. Plus they're delicious! The only thing holding me back from a full 5 stars is that there was a full table when we arrived of tourists and once they left, the two waitresses spent a good 5 minutes loudly making jokes and mocking them. I mean, the bar is not so big, so my husband and I were both a bit uncomfortable. If they make fun of them, are they going to make fun of us too when we leave? That won't stop me from returning, but will make me hesitant to stay too long in the shop.

A coffee bar is always a go-to spot for me, so when I spotted O-Cortado, I had to stop by. First impression was excellent, as I was greeted by the person at the counter. I ordered a caramel macchiato, and the gentleman brought it to my table on a beautiful tray with a napkin + cookie. Lovely. The music and decor are both awesome, too! So glad I stopped by!! You should too :-) Carson C. Visalia, California

A couple of Dutch friends of mine introduced me to this wine bistro. They raved about their…read moreempanadas and their soup. They would drive from Rotterdam all the way down to Antwerp just to enjoy their food. That says a lot about this place. I find the price quite reasonable. I tried the Feta and Spinach Empanada while my sister ordered their Veal Empanada. I have to say they were superb. Full of flavor and they were baked to perfection. The menu suggests wine pairing for each dish listed. It made it easy for me to order the perfect wine to go along with our meals. Thumbs up!
