Wine & Design: The Pixel Bar

In one of the little picturesque streets between art galleries and antique shops, a bit hidden from the tourist crowds at Place Sablon, the Pixel Wine Bar with its original decoration quickly catches your eye.


The capacious windows reveal the artwork of Belgian artist Charles Kaisin who covered the walls and ceiling with thousands of little cubes in different colours - or pixels. Seen from far away the more than 7.500 dots join together to a giant landscape picture.


The wines are excellent (around 4 Euros); beer, coffee and softs are also on the menu as well as little snacks. I tried the salmon wrap (7.50) - recommendable.
Prices are slightly elevated in general, but therefore you can enjoy a very cool and cozy interior - or a terrace in the summer.
Location: Rue Ernest Allard 39, 1000 Bruxelles
