With their wooden interiors, rare whiskies and blue, curling vapours, cigar bars are places where it's a pure delight to relax and enjoy the occasional cigar, whilst sitting snugly in a Chesterfield sofa. This is a rare experience that can be enjoyed alone or with friends, and is also ideal for an informal business meeting.
Just a cigar's puff from the Grand-Place, above the restaurant Armand & Ko is a large cigar bar that is well-stocked with quality whiskies. Several Chesterfields, occasional tables and a vast choice in cigars all make this place an essential place to stop off and indulge. Much more up-market, the former strongroom at the Belga Queen whisks you off to Africa, where you can enjoy a range of Havanas, liqueurs and top vintage wines, along with live music at the weekend.
A laid-back place for all purses, the Latin American atmosphere at the Havana Corner comes with a wide choice in cigars, from a Punch Punch at 3 ¤ to a Cohiba at 30 ¤.
In the Louise area, two amazing establishments with breathtaking décor called the Chelsea and the Tribeca are worth discovering quickly. The former is exotic and subtle, whereas the latter is luxurious and muted: they both compete in terms of refinement and the choice they offer.
Happy smoking! OLIGRAPHE / van de Kerchove
