EBG Rating: 7.9/10

Choice/Quality of Drinks:
❤️❤️❤️❤️
A different balance here with wine, aperitivo, beers and spirits given an even spread. Choice is not vast for any, but it is compact and easy to choose. You may find one or two more craft-angled beers here.

Style/Décor:
❤️❤️❤️❤️
A very strong suit for the venue is its decor, lush and verdant with plants decked around what is a large opened out corner townhouse with a high ceiling and mezzanine level overlooking the bar. Funky, cool, with a hint of the macabre at times to the eclectic decor.

Atmosphere/Character:
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Loungey during the day and lively at night, this is a versatile space aiming at a more specific target market than the average brown café. Not at all bland, this is the type of venue you’d expect somewhere like Budapest over Belgium.

Amenities/Events:
❤️❤️❤️
Outdoor seating, food, occasional events

Value For Money:
❤️❤️❤️
A little higher than average, but not outrageously so.

Description:
When brown cafés become monotonous, Dansing Chocola is a strong option for a little visual variety – and how. The high-ceilinged venue resembles the sort of space you’d find in one of Budapest’s Austrian-era mansions rather than a Belgian backstreet, and it is decorated with plants, funky bits and pieces and eclectic, going on macabre recovered items. The drinks selection is varied and the offering more unisex than the average old man boozer, certainly. While loungey during the day, this is an interesting and cool place to lounge in, and becomes steadily more so as the evening picks up. Take note.
