1. Boentje Café
$ | Schaerbeek |Just a brilliant café run by a pair of owners who really care about what they do. Their aim is to be zero-waste, whether that means repurposing used coffee grounds to grow mushrooms, composting everything that’s left over, or handing out reusable containers. The menu—all bowls, soups, and healthy weekend brunches—is organic, delicious, and wary of food intolerances. They also run a number of interesting workshops.
Pl. Colignon 18, Brussels, Brussels Capital, 1030, Belgium02-672--0837Known For
- Ethical, guilt-free lunching at its finest
- The all-day (until 2:30) breakfast menu is pretty tasty
- Great options for vegans and those with allergies
-
2. Leopold Café Presse
$ | Cinquantenaire |This cozy café is the epitome of Brussels decor: bicycles hang from the ceiling, there are Tintin statues everywhere, and shelves overflow with books. It's sculpted chaos and part of a chain of cafés that is slowly taking over the city. This was the first branch, and is still the best. The bagels and ready-made sandwiches are always tasty, plus it stays open until 8 every day, by which time it's filled with busy students.
Av. de Tervueren 107, Brussels, Brussels Capital, 1040, Belgium02-736--2298Known For
- It's just a lovely, warm, charming space
- The choice of cakes is particularly good
- Around the desk is a bookshop with plenty of guides (some in English) and comics
-
3. Hinterland
$ | |With its all-day brunch ricocheting between healthier options (acai and Buddha bowls) and more indulgent offerings, including a guacamole, bacon, and cheddar toast, this is a good spot to bag a late-morning or early-afternoon pick-me-up (until 3 weekdays; 3:30 on weekends).
Charleroise Steenweg 179, Saint-Gilles, Brussels Capital, 1060, Belgium02-537--9747Known For
- It's avocado paradise, with most things slathered in the green stuff
- There are good breakfast options
- There are gluten-free and vegan options

4. Jat' Café
$$ | Upper Town |A large, hip coffee shop with art and design books strewn around its cozy lounging area. There are bagels, salads, and the juices are particularly good. Wi-Fi is best nearer the counter, though.
Rue de Namur 28, Brussels, Brussels Capital, 1000, Belgium02-503--0332Known For
- There's brunch on weekends
- People-watching spot
- Good juices
-
5. L'eau Chaude - Het Warm Water
$ | Lower Town |Located just above the place de Jeu de Balle in the heart of the Marolles area, this café is a local institution—legend has it that residents would come to fill their buckets full of hot water in times of need, hence the name. In 2014, its closure was imminent, but locals stepped in and reopened it as a social cooperative with an organic canteen dishing up hearty lunches and a dish of the day (11–4). It also boasts a well-curated list of bottled beers (many of them organic) from lesser-known artisanal Belgian breweries.
Rue des Renards 25, Brussels, Brussels Capital, 1000, Belgium02-213–9159Known For
- A genuine local spirit, and some fierce political debate (on the right night)
- Organic vegetarian cooking
- Sustainable produce sourced locally

7. Sowl
$ | Schuman |This popular spot among health-conscious office workers lets you fill your bowl with healthy veggies, grains, meats, and berries (or just take one of the standard blends). Everything is tasty, good for you, and the word "superfood" crops up endlessly.

- It's perfect for vegans and those with food allergies

8. Wild Lab
$$ | |Power food, in all its acai glory. Wild Lab is the kind of place you get chia jam on your chocolate-banana pancakes or can find a "Goodness Bowl" brimming with lentils, roasted parsnip, and za'atar. It's a great spot for brunch, and the juices and smoothies leave you glowing.
