    Good place
    I went to this place twice while visiting Brussels with a friend. I think it is a perfect place to chill and taste different kinds of beers! This pub was bigger than I thought, you can go upstairs or even downstairs. The atmosphere is also good even though a bit loud sometimes. However, I do recommend this place, especially if you are in Brussels with friends, you should definetely go here to drink beer and have a laugh.

    Delirium street of beer dreams
    Delirium beer and it’s pink elephant is not quite as widespread as Heineken or Guinness, but this “home” location attracts a lot of tourists. It’s not just a bar, but a short street of bars filling basements, at street level, and rooftops. Not all were open the weekday I was there, but one could imagine how busy it gets on weekends. Good selection of beers on tap, not just their own. Almost more interesting are all the old beer advertising signs covering every bit of wall, and all the old serving trays nailed to the ceiling.

    Amazing experience and totally recommendable, especially if is your first time ever in Brussels. Huge variery of good quality of Belgium and abroad beers. Ground floor, you can find on Thursdays live music with an incredible atmosphere and friendly regular local people.

    It should have been better ...
    It’s great and see by your own eyes what you’ve been watching by tv for long time ago... testing all kind of beers that I’ve never tried before , set-prices that come well to the costumer . Even thought the treatment has been special by the bartenders , seem not to enjoy too much their job, never smiled if you roll up to the bar look like you are bothering them . Well , I am managing a bar in Malta if it’s one of my staff don’t do their best to make the costumers’s night . He/she will be out , this kind of job the manager carefully have to be selecting the best people as they will represent the company’s face ... What a shame!

    If you love beer!
    I’m not a lover of beer but had to try some when in Belgium. We were told that Delirium was the place to go. There was a steady flow of people when we entered but soon filled up quite quickly! Seems a lot of students go there. The atmosphere was quite buzzy. I tried a chocolate beer (as I love chocolate). It tasted ok and had a slight sweet flavour. Over 100 types of beer on offer so check it out if beer is your thing!

    Excellent Venue
    In the Guinness book of records for its 2004 varieties of beer this place does not disappoint. Nicely dim lighting complements the wooden decor and ceilings covered in old trays. Fordt timers should order the meter of beer which is 10 small sample glasses of various IPA's costing €25. Well worth it to find your ideal brew. Two floors of seating inside and outdoor seating at certain times of day. Great music playing constantly. Nice eclectic mix of patrons from students to the more mature crowd. Very chilled. We'll worth a visit. Just 5 min stroll from Grand Place

    Definitely a place to visit
    Names as the “best beer cafe in the world”. It is a different dimension inside Brussels city Centre. Great variety of beers and loved the concept. Live music could make it a bit better. A place to come back surely!

    Forget about it
    We were there yesterday and won't be back again. We were four, got there around 20:30 and got a table outside, in the little street where you have a statue of a young girl peeing. I say so because there are lots of people coming and going to take pics of the statue, so the street did not at all seem a private one. Anyway, we ordered our drinks and were told that nothing to eat was left. So, we went grabbing a couple of pizzas elsewhere. They told us it was not allowed - which I think it is not really smart in the moment where it is still early and you have nothing to offer instead: if they let eating our pizzas we would have certainly ordered for another round of beers. Anyone, at that point we just stood out from our table and went on eating slices of pizza standing up. Immediately two security guards ran up to us saying it was forbidden and chased out away. They say it is a private street. So, to us it was the most unwelcoming experience in BXL, they showed total lack of flexibility for something that would do no harm, rather sell some more beers. Just avoid this place, it is anyway packed with tourists, there are many more alternatives in town.

    Freshest Delirium
    Delirium beers are some of the most favorite beers of beer drinkers back home so we really wanted to check out The Village. It was not a huge disappointment; just not the magical place I expected but I would still go back for the fresh variety of their beers!!!! The area is set up more like something I remember visiting when I was in my early 20s. Pricing was good. Variety was good. They don’t have a full kitchen. When my husband and I went they were out of cheese but offered “little sausages” for €6. It seemed like it was Soppressata. It was a large and very delicious portion. They check ID and stamp your hand.

Read about this bar online and put it on the list of places to visit, glad I did but not so sure if I would go back far better bars around Brussels.

Hubby and I visited this venue early afternoon as it was fairly quiet. I had three small tasting beers. The prices are ok. It has a large range of beers and liked the signs and decor.
The toilets are not very good at all.So avoid if you can!

Great place for beers, right in the heart of Brussels. I think the word "alive" describes best the place, as it full of people and loud rock music playing in the background. The whole place is pretty dark and smells (what else) beer. What I found pretty interesting is that the venue has a lot of "rooms", one next to the other, and as you drift apart from the bar, the music volume is getting lower. So, if you are not into loud music, you can choose a table in one of the other rooms. They offer a wide variety of beers, most of them unknown to me, which makes the place great for the beer connoisseurs. It is self-service and, due to the crowd, it might take some time to prepare your order. Also, it is better to avoid pick hours, as you might not even find a place to stand (we went there pretty late of a Wednesday night, so it was easy to find a table).

Huge pub with 400 beers and right outside the little girl relieving herself. Friends of ours who had lived in Brussels for 40 years were not aware she had arrived in the 80s to equal up the main boy attraction who has been around for 400 years. Back to the beer. Have the metre sampling board of 10 for a very reasonable €27 to then work out which one(s) for the rest of your visit
