L’Alchimiste.

Nice and confortable place, warm welcome and kind service.
You can have your breakfast while working with your laptop using their good Wi-Fi connection.
The kind oh place I would return with pleasure and as an habit.

Actually stumbled in here because of their cozy and inviting atmosphere. After taking a look on their drinking menu I knew I want to try their homemade Golden Milk. Windy outside. Still my heart was melting. Spices on point. Hot. 🧡💛
They also have a menu with great sounding food options and cake.

What a wonderful place for a nice lunch. 100% plant-based, the staff is very friendly and the place cosy and welcoming. You can also purchase a selection of their coffees and reusable mugs. I could not go without trying the Blue soy latte - made with blue spirulina (not only pretty but also tasty). And I went for the toast of the day: with scrambled tofu, mushrooms, a real treat.
I particularly liked the focus of the place on encouraging reuse: you can take a coffee to go with their Billie cup and they offer a discount if you bring your own mug.
Would definitively come back to try out their brunch.

Had a great lunch here. First we were sceptical about the prices, but portions make up for it. I wanted tea, but they didn't have lemon teabags and they offered me black tea with lemon slices. Perfect way to serve customers.

First time having brunch at l'Alchimiste... A lovely little place filled with atmoshere. I had the blueberry pankcakes and was very happy with my choice, their coffee and smoothies are also very good. The staff are friendly and professional. Will be going back to try the cheese toastie...

I can only recommend this place - great variety of vegan beverages, all kinds of coffee (iced coffee, even vegan affogato!), smoothies, milkshakes, soft drinks. The vibe in there with the nice music, the book shelves, the semi-cluttered decorations is just so beautiful! Also a great variety of breakfast, sweet, savory, smaller and bigger portions - everyone can find something here. :)

One Sunday afternoon we decided to take a stroll through St Gilles and we were very happy to find this neighborhood, cozy, well-presented café not far from the commune building. The staff was super friendly, prices modest, and finally, our coffee and chai latte very good. The cafe is a relaxing place to chat and read. It is also possible to buy books and gadgets (like coffee mugs). We also liked that soy milk does not come with extra charges.

High class vegan food made with love and best coffee maker. Feels like home and even on busy days the atmosphere is lovely thanks to the friendly service. Check it out!

We stayed in the neighborhood and discovered this lovely vegan breakfast place. The food was simply delicious and the staff super friendly. Definitely recommend to come here for breakfast!

Wonderful small coffee place with great food. We got the pancakes and the Banh Mi and really liked it. The terrace is also very nice and lets you enjoy the view of some of the very nice houses of St Giles.

Amazing brunch menu and lovely people! Thank you!

Amazing food, amazing coffee and gorgeous view. The service was great and gave a good description of their product. The pancakes were fluffy and tasty.

Great coffee and pancakes were delicious! Staff were very friendly and tastefully decorated too.

We live across the street and my boyfriend says its the best oatmilk Cappuccino he has ever had! Very nice people and great ambiance, we fully recommend!

Better and more local than hipster exterior suggest.

From the outside I worried this was yet another standardized hipster coffee place. But once inside I was pleasantly surprised by the personal touch: home made foods, good coffee, nice books and friendly for kids.

We had a latte, americano and a babycinno which they made with cacao powder. The baby didn’t love it, but I did. Would go back

Delicious food and really lovely staff. I'm looking forward to visiting once lockdown is over and it's open for eating-in because the decor and atmosphere are very nice. We tried the breakfast with tofu scramble which was delicious but quite small. It was perfect for a light breakfast but probably not enough if you're hungry. Everything is vegan, many options are gluten free and they serve all day breakfast as well as lunch.

I could not believe that the pancake was vegan, the best I have ever eaten. Congratulation! Fantastic food and super friendly nice staff. I wish it was in my neighbourhood...

Best flat white I've had in Belgium. Nice people, breezy sidewalk tables with shade, fun old China cups. Banana bread was just OK. Decent prices, too.

Lots of nice vegan options, from breakfast, brunches, sandwiches, bowls and desserts. Energy drinks and smoothies, free tap water and nice bookshelf and furnitures! This is only open during the day hours so if you do not work/live around, there is only a small window to go during a brunch in the WE.

Amazing vegan breakfast in Brussels, we went twice and had granola with coconut yoghurt, a hot breakfast bowl, banana bread with peanut butter, croissant and pain au chocolate. Smoothies, strawberry milkshake, babychino and coffee. All delicious, and there were toys and books to keep the kids happy :-)
