Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I always stop by here when in Brussels, so when I was in Brussels with a colleague I did the same. He didn’t know it, but liked it. Always nice to sit down here and watch people. Quite some good Belgian beers on offer.

Love the pubs and bars around Rue Des Chapeliers ,some of the city's most popular beer bars are located along and around this street ,one of my favourites is Golden Bar.
I love the look of this bar ,interior is cool,an illuminated serving bar dominates the main room ,pubby decor and furnishings and lots of seating options spread throughout this bar both inside and outside looking out onto the busy and bustling Rue Des Chapeliers .
We visited here twice on our five days stay in Brussels,on both visits bar was busy ,service spot on ,as one of the premier beer bars in the city the beer range is fantastic ,I enjoyed Waterloo Brewery ales and ales from Pauwel Kwak ,these ale's were always served in pristine condition ,it was lovely soaking up the great vibe generated in this beer bar and supping quality beers.
We enjoyed both our visits to here and when we are back in Brussels next year will most certainly revisit here.
Golden Bar is easy to locate along Rue Des Chapeliers .
Opening hours are;
Monday to Sunday,10am till 3am.
Well worth checking out if you're in the area.

Golden Bar is a fantastic bar that offers an excellent range of Belgium beers and is on Rue des Chapeliers.This superb bar is one of the busiest and liveliest bar's we went to on a six day city break in Brussels.
The Golden Bar is superb and always busy and on both occasions we visited here this bar was really busy.This brilliant bar has a compact well kept interior with interesting beer related fixtures throughout the whole bars interior and excellent seating options both inside and outside.
On our first visit to the Golden Bar it was so busy in here we just about got served thats how busy it was that night.On that night we had a Pauwel Kwak a superb Belgium beer which where served in its coachmans glass with its distinctive look.The second time we visited here we had a fantastic Lindemans Framboise Kriek each were were excellent and also served in its own glass.The beers where superb and well priced considering were we where.
This is a superb bar and well worth visiting and very easy to locate from Grand-Place bus stop its a minute's walk.(This is my first review of the Golden Bar).

You’d expect the bar would’ve shifted to cash only, given the times. But no! Ideal for a quick drink or two to enjoy the view and the location. Not a bar where I would spend the whole evening for drinks. Still, one of our stops when we visit Brussels because you can’t beat a habit

Hubby and I have always visited this bar when in Brussels. The prices are good and they do lots of offers. I often have 3 mojitos for the price of two. Although this time I had Lindemans Pecheresse - a peach beer as time was limited. And you also receive a small bowl of salted peanuts. The range of beers is good.

The location is great not far from the grand place. It is a cash only bar but thats not unusual for Europe. We have always found the staff friendly and polite. Its also nice in the summertime where you can sit outside.

We have always used this bar when in Brussels over the years so it has become known as tradition for me to have 3 mojitos when in Brussels 😆 I'm still trying to get hubby to have 4 kwaks for the price of 3 🤣

I came here earlier tonight and the moment I walked in with my boyfriend, we were forced to sit at a table. We really just wanted to stand by the bar but we weren’t allowed to. Then, I order a beer and the server brings me the beer and demands that we pay right away. I pull out my card and he says they only take cash. I tell him I don’t have cash and, very angrily, he took the beer back and kicked us out of our table. He also judged my boyfriend for not ordering a drink because he doesn’t drink. Not at all recommended for anyone who wants to actually enjoy Brussels. Instead, you should go to Le Baroque, you’re welcome.

Unfriendly waiters, tasteless music, weird rules like you need to order a dri k every 30 mins. The only good thing is their location.
