Perched in the heart of Mont des Arts, the Musical Instruments Museum is one of those Brussels places you love just as much for the stories it tells as for the setting itself. Behind the Art Nouveau façade of the former Old England building, step into a unique world of sound, filled with historic instruments, surprising creations and melodies from Brussels and beyond.
But a visit to the MIM is also something to enjoy before or after the museum itself. Whether you’re looking for a coffee to start the day, lunch between exhibitions, a drink to keep the outing going or a nice spot to chat about your favourite discoveries, the neighbourhood is full of great places to complete the experience. From tasty breaks and sunny terraces to drinks with friends, we’ve selected a whole range of addresses worth discovering nearby.
