What makes Le Dolores special
Le Dolores is one of the small bars on Brussels’ gay strip: a counter, dimmed lighting and a terrace for watching the street. At weekends DJs get the mood going with pop. Guests praise the atmosphere, staff and prices; some complain of unfriendly service and an increasingly straight crowd.
A good fit if you …
- want to bar-hop along Rue du Marché au Charbon
- would like to sit outside
Not ideal if you …
- are looking for lots of space or a dance floor
