drinking

The sheer amount of pubs, cafés, brasseries and grand cafés scattered around Antwerp testifies to that second favourite national pastime: drinking. Though smoking in restaurants is banned, you’re still allowed to light up in the vast majority of pubs and cafés. That being said, there’s always something for everyone going on: learning new dancing vibes in salsa bars, check out the latest cocktail or attend a live gig in one of the many music cafés.
