Kolonel Coffee Antwerp
My go-to coffee place
Kolonel Coffee is my go-to coffee bar in the South of Antwerp! It is situated on Troonplaats, a charming square where a huge wall painting will catch your eye straight away. Behind this wall painting, you will find a warm and cosy-looking coffee place, Kolonel Coffee! Amazing coffee, a big-sized sunny terrace and a stylish interior; you will feel right at home here.
There’s a wide variety of roasted coffees you can choose from. Not in a coffee mood? You will also find teas and other drinks on their menu. The place is run by friendly, passionate people who give it their all. Since coffee always tastes better with some delicious food, I recommend going during breakfast or lunch. Everything on the menu is freshly prepared with quality products and seasonal ingredients. In the north of Antwerp, near MAS, you will find the newest location of Kolonel Coffee; Kolonel & Reede. Both locations have slightly different menus.
