Eat by the Fountain of Knowledge in Leuven, overlooking Grote Markt

Ok, so you don’t want the overpriced breakfast on offer in your hotel, or to be tied to the timetable it imposes.

You want to get up at a time that suits you, have a little stroll around the city, and then find a spot for the perfect brunch. Surely that’s what city breaks are made of?

While you’re in Leuven, such a lifestyle can be accomplished if you choose to patronise the Café  Brouwershuis, which can be found on Margarethaplein, immediately opposite the Fonske fountain statue.

Enjoy a milky latte, house omelette, or whatever takes your fancy, for a few euros and a fabulous view of the town hall square and Sint Pieterskerk, while you indulge in a spot of people watching.

Service is quick and friendly and, of course, they offer much more than a simple breakfast or brunch.

Fascinating on the inside, summer café society on the outside, this little Leuven gem will have you coming back for more… and more.
