🍷 Thief Wine Shop & Bar sells more than 750 distinctive and eclectic wines from around the world, but right now? Phil’s pick is the Stift Göttweig from Austria.

After a quick taste, we have to agree. It’s crisp, refreshing and basically made for patio season. ☀️

There is no shortage of dining options at Café Benelux. 🌤️ Our favorite part? You can still enjoy dining outside, even on a chilly day, thanks to their heated Lux Skyhaus rooftop and heated sidewalk dining.

What’d we order on the roof?
🍹 Aperol Spritz
🍟 Lemon Drop Martini
🍖 Lamb Krokets

What’d we order at the bar?
🍺 Chimay Draught Bier

What’d we order on the sidewalk?
🍺 NA Brugse Zot Sportzot
🫖 NA SPORTea
🍞 Pull-Apart Herb Bread
🧀 Macaroni & Cheese w/ Chicken
🍔 Walnut Smash Burger

Where will you sit? (There are no wrong answers here.)
