The Stock Exchange, a magnificent palace located in the heart of Brussels which was originally designed for finance has been transformed into a space for relaxation and public meeting. The building has been standing proudly since the 19th century and has witnessed the economic ebbs and flows of Belgium.
Originally conceived as a centre for financial transactions, The Bourse has now embraced a new role as a cultural hub, with its majestic architecture providing an enchanting backdrop for a myriad of activities.
From its cellars to its spectacular roof terrace, The Bourse has been redesigned and renovated from head to toe and houses the Belgian Beer World museum, as well as a brand new restaurant, "The Brasserie". This new restaurant transcends the boundaries of conventional dining, introducing a new experience where history meets innovation. Welcome to the exciting world of the new restaurant at The Bourse in Brussels!
The Brasserie's interior
Step inside the new restaurant at The Bourse and you'll find yourself immersed in an ambience that seamlessly blends the building's rich history with contemporary design. The Brasserie is an integral part of the beautiful renovation that the entire building has undergone and the architects who designed it have been able to preserve the integrity of the building and its architectural splendour, while decorating it with contemporary, modern brasserie furniture that seduces as soon as you enter the place.
Benches, copper ornamentation, quality wood, mouldings, muted colors... you will find all the comfort of a welcoming, warm and cosy place to eat and drink in a historical setting. Whether you're enjoying a meal out with friends or enjoying a moment of solitude, the restaurant's design invites you to bask in the fusion of tradition and modernity.
Fine Belgian cuisine
What truly sets The Brasserie apart is its menu which is a celebration of Belgian and international flavours, curated with precision and creativity. The menu reflects a commitment to using locally sourced, fresh ingredients, ensuring a farm-to-table experience that tantalizes the taste buds.
Start your culinary journey with appetizers like the Fernand Obb's shrimp croquettes, parsley and lemon, or the beetroot tartare.
For the main courses, The Brasserie's commitment to sustainability is evident where seasonal ingredients take centre stage. Whether you opt for the knife-cut Américain prepared steak with fries, which So Soir magazine nominated "one of the Best Américain of Brussels", or the Flemish beef cheek carbonade with dark beer and fries, each dish offers a beer pairing designed by zytologist Karl Van Malderen.

To complement the culinary delights, The Brasserie also boasts a unique twist on the traditional Belgian beer experience and the thoughtfully curated wine list, which compliments the diverse menu. They also serve a Belgian Bubble from Chateau de Fumal, a small family business not so far from la province de Liège.
The Brasserie at The Brussels Stock Exchange stands as a testament to the seamless integration of history and modernity. By transforming a historic financial institution into a culinary destination, the restaurant preserves the legacy of the Stock Exchange while offering a sophisticated dining experience. Whether you are a history enthusiast or a food connoisseur, The Brasserie invites you to indulge in a gastronomic journey that pays homage to the past and embraces the flavours of the present.
