At the heart of Antwerp's historical center you will find Bar 11. It's a chill and spacious cocktail bar with an outside terrace that gives you quietness and cosiness, since the bar is located in one of the side streets. It's a cool bar with simple and trendy furniture. The upstairs lounge creates good vibes. Downstairs you see straw umbrellas and hear Latin music, which makes you feel like you're down south. At times there is even live music playing, which creates a party inside and a party outside - hoping the weather will play along as well.
My all-time favorite is the strawberry mojito. If you're hungry, go for nachos with extra guacamole. If you are sitting outside, watch out for the display window of the store on the opposite side. There is a frightening realistic mannequin sitting. So don't worry, he is not real - just in case you had one too many ;-)
