A tavern from 1991 opposite the Manneken Pis, with walls covered in old photos and engravings and a long list of Belgian beers. Open Tuesday to Sunday.

The Poechenellekelder is right opposite the Manneken Pis, on the corner of the rue du Chêne, at the most visited spot in the city. It opened in 1991, and the room is dark, with walls covered in old photos and engravings and a calm, conversational atmosphere.
What to order
The list of Belgian beers is long: Trappists, abbey beers, gueuzes and krieks, strong blondes. It is a good place to try a Trappist and a lambic at the same table and understand the difference. To go with them, simple things to nibble.
When to go
Open Tuesday to Sunday from 11:00: until 1:00 from Sunday to Thursday and until 2:00 on Friday and Saturday. Closed on Monday. At midday and mid-afternoon, with the groups passing the Manneken Pis, it is busier; after dinner it is easier to find a table.
Getting there
It is at 5 rue du Chêne, three minutes' walk from the Grand-Place, going down the rue Charles Buls and the rue de l'Étuve.

Qué pedir: a Trappist or a gueuze from the beer list, with some cheese to go with it

A tener en cuenta: Tuesday to Thursday and Sunday from 11:00 to 1:00 · Friday and Saturday until 2:00 · closed on Monday
