About this experience
Belgium is serious about both of these and Bruges is where the two are easiest to do on foot. Three independent chocolatiers, not the chains on the main square, each doing something different.
Between them, two brown cafés for the beers that go with chocolate better than anyone expects — a dark Trappist, and a fruit lambic that surprises people.
Highlights
- Three independent chocolatiers, no chains
- Trappist and lambic tasted alongside
- Brown cafés locals still drink in
- Entirely walkable medieval centre
