Food & Drinks

Les Nuits at Botanique — it’s all about craftsmanship! Our main goal is to offer our audience a complete and enjoyable experience throughout the festival. That’s why you’ll find food and drink options that match the spirit of our event: thoughtful, high-quality, and carefully curated!

Bar

At the bar, with Cristal Pils on tap and some iconic selections from the Alken-Maes group, we're aiming to offer one of the finest experiences from the world of great Belgian breweries.

Our other artisanal products are every bit as remarkable. You will find Saison Dupont, ciders, pommeau and fruit juices from Pom d'Happy. More soft drinks and colas are also part of the selection, thanks to the offerings from Belgian company Roman. Are you a wine lover instead? We’ve put together a special selection just for you, in collaboration with the artisanal Italian wine cooperative Terra Cruda.

Les Nuits will also have its very own homemade specials such as Mules (Jamaican, London, Moscow, Whiskey mule, etc.), Espresso martini, Negroni, Mojito, etc. and a range of mocktails for everyone.

Food

The food menu focuses on a local and seasonal offer, using fresh ingredients from cooperatives like La Vivrière or Coprosain, and bread from nearby bakers.

Maria and her team will offer a variety of vegan-friendly options, including vegan or pure beef burgers, chili sin carne, pasta dishes, curry dahl, fresh soups, delicious Belgian fries, and last but not least, Japanese food on the weekend.

PAYMENT

With tokens (one token = 3€ ). Card only!

These are available at any time from the token dispensers located at the Botanique reception and in the Botanique café.
