Allow me to recommend Revista, a bar in Antwerp on Karel Rogierstraat, which I regard as a true local hotspot. Its tagline, 'from espresso to martini', suggests that I may expect something to drink from the first coffee of the morning through to the cocktails of the evening. For guests of our holiday homes who like to begin and end the day in one and the same place, I find that a most agreeable promise.
Please note that Revista does not take reservations for smaller parties. Only groups of more than six people may reserve. Should your party be that large, you may reach the bar by phone or by email. If you write, I kindly ask you to include your phone number in the message. For everyone else, I suggest you plan your visit with a little flexibility, so that you may simply arrive and enjoy the atmosphere.
Several times a year the bar organises Café Society, a lively street party with an afterparty, which brings people from the area together. I find it a charming way for a neighbourhood to gather. Revista shares news about Café Society on Instagram, and I recommend a look there before your visit to see what is planned.
