Sobre este lugar Belgica

Belgica is a gay bar on Rue du Marché au Charbon, the short street a few minutes from the Grand Place that forms the centre of Brussels' gay quarter. It has been a fixture on the strip for decades and is a dedicated gay bar, not just a gay-friendly one: a small, wood-panelled pub that fills up and spills onto the pavement on weekend nights, with DJs playing at volume later on. It is a pre-club and bar-hopping stop rather than a dance venue, with several other gay bars within a few doors. Come after 10pm on Friday or Saturday for the crowd; weeknights are quieter.

It was an excellent bar for decades (under the former management), but recently and sadly has succumbed to wokism, exclusion and incompetence. Don’t waist your time.

I went to this bar at a time when people were still entering and I asked what time the bar closes and a female door attendant spoke to me in French and I asked her if she could speak to me in English. She then responded by saying to me ‘you are a man and this is your first mistake, you are American and this is your second mistake, finally you don’t speak French and this is your third mistake please leave’. It is disgraceful to me is that the door attendant at a gay nightclub in Brussels should be so discriminatory and unacceptably rude. I am shocked and disheartened by such a disgraceful display of racism, sexism and intolerance. The door attendant in question was wearing a orange baseball cap and I am including a photo which identifies who she is without showing her face! This ruined what had been a very pleasant evening.

Terrible experience after being a loyal customer for 6 years. I was pushed out of the bar by staff after refusing to yield my place in the queue for the toilet. After that, I was told in mafia-style, there are other bars I can go to if I don't like this kind of treatment. Rude, arrogant, don't deserve the clientele that blindly goes there. Avoid as much as you can, it can happen to you to.

We went to Belgica with my friend yesterday at 10pm. We wanted to go to toilet and then grab a drink. A bartender jumped into the toilet, kicked the door and started scream to get out. When my friend went out, a tall guy with moustache and glasses screamed at as "You have to come and ask first!". Excuse me, I don't have to do anything! We entered, none of bartenders was interested in welcoming us, so we just went to toilet. For me it's normal. But kicking the door, screaming at customers and asking them to "get out" at the end is totally abnormal! Customer service worse than on a gas station!

Very unfriendly staff and strange atmosphere. On top of that, they have a statue of Leopold II inside. The conversation with the bartender went as followed: - I: "Am I seeing it correclty that you have a statue of Leopold II here?" - He: "Yes, so what?" - I: "Are you aware of the horrific things he has done and what kind of message you are sending out by putting a statue of him here?". He gave me a desinterested look and turned away. To sum up, I definitely don't recommend to go to this place.

Well it's combination between grinder and a vintage old bar. Bon if it was in another normal city , this bar should be closed. PS:nice service and good friendly staff.

Superb decoration. That did not change since the 50’s and there you go. Tiny (therefore always crowdy and therefore the mood is there immediately. Mixed and hyper trendy crowd. Beautiful people. Awasome DJs and music. Highly recommended. If there were only one gay bar in Brussels this will be it. Lové lové lové it

I would give this bar 5 stars for atmosphere but I just can't ignore that they display a bust of massmurderer king Leopold 2. Would you allow a german bar to have a statue from adolf hitler?
