Seriously famous and seriously gay. Well, mostly. Watch transvestite “Maman” strutting her stuff behind the bar of this tiny venue, which can get outrageously busy, hot and sweaty. Maman’s revels in Seventies drag atmosphere at the weekends, but is very different during the week when it is (allegedly) possible to have a quiet drink. One of many gay bars in Brussels.

Starting life as an American bar, Conway’s is a lot more cosmopolitan than that these days. It’s a popular haunt for the younger end of the market (but that doesn’t discount the slightly more mature) who flock to this two-floor hostelry on the chic Toison d’Or run. Not that the place is particularly chic, it’s more tinsel, spinning disco-balls, film-star photographs and cheesy Bee Gees tunes. The outdoor terrace is fun in the good weather, though: perfect for watching the rich and not-so-rich trip down the street, and the American-style diner at the back serves tasty food. The beer list is not particularly imaginative and it’s a little pricey.

Havana is a Cuban-theme restaurant-cum-club where you can let your hair down over cocktails and Latin rhythms. It’s the place of choice for young expats who want to dance until dawn.
