Something Belgian Brewing in Bangkok
Bangkok
Belgo Brasserie brings the history-steeped beer culture of Belgium to the heart of Bangkok. The brainchild of entrepreneurs François Schwennicke and Gauthier Lagasse, this fun venue is anchored by the expertise of brewmaster Gert Keersmaeckers, offering locals and travellers an authentic dive into Belgian brewing traditions.
The menu features a diverse array of traditional pours, from crisp Artisan Pilsner to aromatic Witbiers, racked up on one-metre sharing trays. The kitchen matches the bar’s ambition with classic brasserie staples like crisp fries topped with truffle sauce, fresh mussels in a traditional marinière, spicy Thai-inspired broths, and rich Flemish stew. Sweet-toothed visitors may find it hard to resist the golden waffles topped with creamy speculoos cookie butter.
Expertly blending European charm and contemporary Bangkok energy, Belgo is an essential stop for a weekend brunch or a sophisticated late-night pour.
