While the weather is bearable again but not yet too cold and wet, why not enjoy some beers in a garden? Jardin Hospice is a beer garden hidden in a listed neoclassical hospice, dating back to the Dutch period. As old as the building is, as modern are the beers served: lots of Brussels Beer Project on draught, and beers from more local 21st century breweries can be found in the fridges!
After a short dip, the temperature is in the high twenties again, so it’s a perfect opportunity to check out another al fresco drinking establishment. Being centre based, we had to travel quite a distance for our previous visits to park buvettes. Luckily for us, the Guinguette Royale is in the Parc de Bruxelles or Warandepark, the largest public park in the centre of Brussels. Our visit to the buvette in the Bois de la Cambre in mind, we didn’t expect our beers to be served in glass, so we grabbed our reusable cups, and headed to the Parc de Bruxelles for a lunch in the cool shade.
