A couple walks through the car-free Green Quarter neighbourhood.

Fancy fries, Japanese noodles and Michelin stars in Antwerp's greenest neighbourhood

Until the 1990's, Groen Kwartier was a military hospital, today it's a low-traffic residential district just two kilometres from Centraal Station. A fine example of urban redevelopment with respect for the patrimony. The culinary offer is also finger-licking good.

August Antwerp

Just a stone's throw from the former military hospital, you'll find this high-end restaurant mentioned by Michelin. Like the four-star hotel with the same name, August Antwerp is located in a former Augustinian monastery, along with a spa, swimming pond and walled gardens.

Bar Vert

A pleasant coffee and lunch bar where you can enjoy a wide selection of food in relaxed surroundings. Choose one of the generously topped flatbreads, a summer salad or other tasty specials.

Apo’s

Japanese noodles in every possible combination: from chicken with yuzu (Japanese citrus fruit) to pork with oat milk and vegetarian miso. Or go for gyoza (Japanese dumplings) or salmon with home-made wasabi mayonnaise.

De Broodnatie

Stylish bakery, breakfast and lunch spot with views of the park. Everything tastes even better with a glass of wine or with coffee and a pastry.
