When you ask people for tips in Brussels, it is very likely that this will be one of the first to be mentioned. We think rightly so; once the sliding door opens, it is natural wine that counts. Different wines by the glass every evening and a refrigerator full of wines that you can order by the bottle. Combine that with delicious small dishes and before you know it you will be here until closing.
With a lovely terrace and cozy bar (where you can even join the kitchen side), this one should not be missing from the list. The team behind REBEL always selects new wines that you can order by the glass, but they also give you advice for a surprising bottle. They also host several here kitchen takeovers; keep an eye on their Instagram if you also want to grab a bite to eat.
Ok, it might be a point of discussion whether you can include this in the list for natural wine. badi is a cider bar. And we will not consider for a moment whether cider can be classified under the category of natural wine. If you don't like natural ciders, they also have tasty natural wines and sparkling Pet-Nat options. The bar (and the interior) is inspired by Japan, Scandinavia & Brittany; may sound crazy but it is a surprisingly good combination.
In the royal park 'Park van Brussel' you will find a wooden hut; Ice cream used to be sold here, but now it is the place for Kiosk Radio, a neighborhood pub and radio station in one. Live online radio is streamed 24/7 from the kiosk and you can enjoy a drink and a snack between 12:00 and 22:00. Here you can drink your natural wine in the middle of the park, on wooden trunks, while enjoying good live DJ sets.
Diagonally opposite the first spot on this list (Nightshop) you will recently find Kline. Kline is a restaurant with modern small dishes that you can all share. Come here for a full-fledged dinner that you can combine well with one of the many natural wines available. The interior consists of a lot of concrete and, in combination with the open kitchen, this forms the scene for a cozy, informal and trendy dinner.
