The Bar/Lounge at Sofitel Brussels Europe

"More of the same is to be found in the adjoining bar, along with an extensive cocktail list, and on a fine day you can take a glass to the rooftop terrace — one of very few such spots in Brussels"

"More gustatory temptations lie just outside—in a square lined with bars serving fine local ales, and at the nearby Chez Antoine, a legendary purveyor of Belgium’s favorite snack: piping hot fries with mayonnaise"

"The location of this sleek 149-room property—just a half mile from Berlaymont, the headquarters of the European Commission—contributes to its cosmopolitan feel, with Eurocrats descending there for lunch at BE, the haute restaurant/bar run by chef Stéphane Coune"

"The lounge is a comfortable spot for a quick drink, but in the evenings the BE Bar is a big hit with neighborhood expats"
