The Belgian beer cafe is a fixture of Utrecht's drinking life, and the city has some unusually atmospheric rooms for it. Belgisch Biercafe Olivier, near Mariaplaats, occupies a hidden Catholic church from 1860 with its vaults, altar and pipe organ intact, pouring Belgian beer alongside mussels and frites. Kafe Belgie on the Oudegracht runs late with its long beer list, while Ledig Erf keeps a quieter brown-cafe mood on the Tolsteegplein.
