The 10 Best Brunches in Brussels in 2026

Why Brussels is the Brunch Capital

Brussels has established itself as one of Europe's best cities for brunch. Between Belgian classics and international influences, the Brussels brunch scene has never been richer.

Here is our selection of the 10 best brunches in Brussels 2026, tested and approved.

1. Croix100 — Gare Centrale & Louise

Our favorite (and we're not saying that because it's us). Croix100 reinvents brunch around the gourmet croissant: savory or sweet, each creation is a unique piece. The Norwegian (salmon, guacamole, scrambled eggs, avocado at €16.50) has become a Brussels classic. The setting is warm and the signature drinks — White Matcha Cloud, Belgian Matcha — are worth the detour on their own.

Addresses: Rue d'Arenberg 44 (Gare Centrale) and Rue de Dejoncker 19 (Louise/Saint-Gilles)

Budget: €15-25 per person

The emblematic Flagey terrace. Perfect for outdoor brunch when the Brussels sun decides to show up. The menu is varied and portions are generous.
