Jardin Hospice Brussels

Hidden oasis in the heart the city

Charlotte from Brussels

About me I was born and raised in Belgium. At the age of 19, I moved to Brussels for my studies and absolutely fell in love with the city. I love Brussels both for its famous and touristic sites and its hidden gems. I really like to just leave my door and look for new places I haven't found or visited yet.

""Jardin Hospice" is a beautiful oasis quietly hidden in the heart of Brussels. Located in a historic building, it has been carefully & gloriously restored."

Jardin Hospice is a beautiful oasis quietly hidden in the heart of Brussels. Open all year round, Jardin invites you to discover the beautiful and never-seen-before gardens of the former Institute Pacheco, which was recently launched under the name "Grand Hospice". Hidden in the middle of a historic building, Jardin has carefully restored its old café to its former glory, providing a unique and fascinating place for both the general public and its inhabitants. Enjoy late-night music, live concerts, DJ sets, comedy nights, and more! The garden also has a petanque area where both young and old can enjoy themselves.

At Jardin Hospice you can choose from a wide range of cocktails, mocktails, and other drinks. I would recommend trying the Brussels Mule or the Purple Inca here if you're up for trying something else! The menu is very expanded. Jardin Hospice also serves food - from seasonal food like onion soup and raclette to burgers and croquettes.

Jardin's motto is to turn unoccupied and forgotten spaces into breathtaking venues. Their goal is to transport you somewhere extraordinary, transforming previously forgotten areas of Brussels into places to be! Jardin attracts a very varied audience of all ages. On a Sunday this can be the perfect getaway with family or friends. Just grab a beach chair, a refreshing drink, and put your feet up for the day!

Chez Monsieur Yang

Chinese Hot Pot

You order a bouillon, which can have different bases, meat or veggie options. Add the sauces, what you would like to eat and then the magic happens.

CHARDIN

Salty waffles and tasty burgers

The crispiness of the chicken perfectly matched the softness of the freshly made waffle, and the teriyaki sauce was just the “savory” cherry on top.

Joseph Marien Stadium Brussels

Joseph Marien Stadium

Art Deco in sport

"Joseph Marien Stadium" in Brussels doesn't look like a stadium - it's another Art Deco building that fascinates me with its long, beautiful facade.

Altitude 100

Highest point in town

"Altitude 100" in Brussels is a fascinating place in the commune of Forest in Brussels. I like it's a church in the center of a big roundabout!

Greek Delicatessen in Schuman

My favorite is Spanakopita, a buttery & flaky phyllo pastry with a filling of cooked spinach and feta cheese. For dessert I recommend a slice of Bougatsa!
