Host Antwerp

Local and sustainable shopping

Margo from Antwerp

""Host" in Antwerp focuses on sustainable wear, consisting of a selection of decoration & lifestyle items. It just screams 'gift ideas!'"

Host... What's in a name? When you walk past this concept store, the homely character just sucks you right in. The range of sustainable wear consists of a selection of decoration and lifestyle items, complemented with luscious greenery to take home. In addition, part of the furniture is also for sale.

The two Antwerp sisters behind HOST try to extend that sustainable, green leitmotif in several areas. Products must be made with respect for other people and their environment. Recycling is also part of it. By also offering a platform to creative like-minded souls, they reinforce the name of the store: from time to time they organize workshops, lectures and exhibitions with partners here.

The fashionista who prefers slow fashion to the disposable character of mass-market fashion also finds sufficient inspiration for her wardrobe here. The selection of accessories just screams 'gift ideas'. It’s definitely my favourite part of the shop. Can't choose from all the pretty goodies? Enjoy a freshly made cup of coffee first or indulge in a fresh piece of apple pie. Hmm!

Antwerp Spotter Margo

I have been going places all around the world since I was a baby. My Belgian-Indonesian roots probably have something to do with that. Wanderlust much? When not discovering the world, I absolutely love exploring my own city, Antwerp. At any other time, I love to work out and take Zumba classes, go out for breakfast on a Sunday and spend time with family and friends. Antwerp is a village with an international allure, I always say. I love its openness, inclusive character and diversity. There's always something to discover, to do, to enjoy. One minute you are looking at...

Noordkasteel

City getaway gem

"Noordkasteel" is a perfect splendid natural gift to Antwerp. I wish I had discovered it sooner. It's for the Sunday kids, the lovely flower crown girls...

Piétrain

For meat lovers

I don't often eat meat at home but when I fancy a juicy steak with a rich sauce and delicious homemade fries, I go to "Piétrain" in Antwerp!

Kolonel Coffee

My go-to coffee place

Kolonel Coffee is my go-to coffee bar in the South of Antwerp! It is on Troonplaats, a charming square where a huge wall painting will catch your eye...

Poncha Bar Madeira

Poncha/cocktail bar

"Poncha Bar Madeira" in Antwerp has the best poncha cocktails and some great Portuguese tapas. Great for after dinner with friends and close to the river!
