La Fleur en Papier Doré

Stopped in for a coffee and an afternoon drink. Came back later for the hip hop concert in the back room (there is a hidden stage behind a staff door). The reviews that talk about the storied history are spot on—if you go to The Magritte Museum, you will see a famous pic of the Surrealists taken outside this cafe.

Try for a table in the front two rooms—all are fantastic but the front rooms have a bit more character.

Great staff, too.

Honestly had it not been pouring rain we would not have found this gem. We ducked in because of the downpour and found a warm cozy amazing little bar. The staff very welcoming and friendly and it is clearly a regulars place. Don't miss if you are nearby.

It doesn't do food anymore but I'll give it a five anyway as it was nice when we ate there in 2019. One of the classic Brussels bars with ties to Magritte and several other artists, it suffered because of Covid (like so many places) and has only recently reopened as just a bar (but you can buy sandwiches next door and take them in). Well worth a visit.

An amazing place to visit while staying in Brussels.. The vintage atmosphere made me feel amazed.. The guy at the bar was so polite and the beers I enjoyed so much.
Totally a sweet experience🥰

A lovely little bar and restaurant with quantity interior of old time. Popular as one of the place where Magritte and friends hung out. Food was great, local food and many variety of Belgian beers.

This is a cute cafe that's much larger than it appears from the street. Has a limited food menu-today three items. Nice place to chill.

One of the best cafes in Brussels!
The stuff is amazing, specially Nano, she is outstanding and so friendly!

Thank you 🙏🏾

One of the greatest bars I ever had the pleasure to visit. I would give it 10 out of 5😎

A magic cozy little bar coffee shop in Brussels with amazing atmosphere decoration and a lot of history behind. If you like this kind of old vintages spots you will love it. A must see

Nice and unique atmosphere with quite good good selection of beers. Snacks are limited though. Don't hesitate to bring yours.

As authentic Brussels as it can be. Not only surrealist Magritte’s favorite hangout, but also that of Hergé, the genius comic-author of Belgium’s most famous hero, Tintin. While it’s famous customers is reason enough to pay it a visit, the authentic food doesn’t disappoint either. Far from. The typical Brussels stoemp (mashed potatoes with any type of seasonal veggie), which comes with pork sausage is heaven on a plate. A must do when in Brussels!

It's the first time that I've been here for dinner. It was a really good Belgian cuisine . The Brussels stew (carbonnades bruxelloises) reminded me the one that my mom was used to cook in winter. All the dishes actually reminded me her cooking !!
The pub is also a unique stam cafe, I like the special atmosphere from those old pubs. The only important point to keep in mind is to book 4-5 days in advance ;-)

Good foods and good service. I usually don’t like beers (American) but the waiter recommended me to try the one on the picture, and I really liked it! I just didn’t know how the payment system works in Belgium. I couldn’t add tips on the credit card so gave some euros to the cashier. Hope the waiter got the tips.

Great guy working behind the bar and the décor awesome, never change!!! X

Since thirty years my favorite bar in bruxelles.
Amazing inventory meets typical food and great belgian beers. I prefer the Senne Beer on tap!

Memories of "het goudblommeke" date back to the late sixties for me.
A real gem, which fortunately was saved from disappearance.
Former centre of a particular Brussels arts scene.
The results of decades long
smoking on the ceiling and wallpaper, where visible between paintings, graphics and poems, has been redone / or kept. The atmosphere is extraordinary.
A real must visit,

What a great place! Large selection of beer, amazing food and great service! They even had some sour ales made locally 🍺. Enjoy!!!

Authentic Belgium pub. Cool vibes for a beer

Wonderful and super cousy. Beers are also very tasty. Now they only serve food and snacks but it is still an amazing historical bar to be in Brussels.

Amazing place, extremely recommended! Traditional belgian food and very particular location near the city centre.. a must if you are in Bruxelles!
