The chefs at Soma are cooking up a storm with Mediterranean and French influences. Soma’s interior is simple yet chic. Don’t wait too long to make a reservation, as this hotspot gets packed quickly!

Chef Andy Decremer draws inspiration from the beautiful building in which it's housed - the former Antwerp Schippersbeurs - every day. The food here is modern, inventive and really quite wonderful.

Belgium does quite a few things well (think waffles, fries, chocolate), and luckily, coffee happens to be one of them. Pop in to Borze Café to drink as the locals do. 

Located in the heart of the historic city of Antwerp, the beautifully designed Hotel Julien is Dries van Noten's favourite place to stay. This boutique retreat is an oasis of tranquillity. Situated within two 16th century properties, the hotel has been lovingly restored with authentic features effortlessly combined with contemporary furnishings. Our favourite room is room 11 thanks to the beautiful views of the cathedral.
