Eating Around with Em

Café Lucien Antwerp

Café Lucien is a café and lunch spot, known for its all-day breakfast, brunch and casual lunch offerings. It operates as a bright, informal place serving coffee, tea and a variety of meals from morning into the afternoon, with menu items that include toasts, sandwiches, pancakes and salads alongside lighter bites and homemade drinks. The setting features simple, contemporary décor and a relaxed pace that aligns with its focus on daytime dining rather than evening service.

The menu includes vegetarian and vegan options as well as dishes that mix classic café fare with creative touches. Indoor seating and a terrace out front make it suitable for a quick stop or a longer brunch, and the café stays open through late afternoon on most days.

Em’s star rating

I’ve been here a couple of times for lunch with my colleagues. The menu is broad without feeling scattered, offering well-made breakfast and lunch dishes that feel fresh and comforting at the same time.

Fun fact

Café Lucien features a vintage-style play corner with quaint décor elements like cactuses and wooden furniture, giving the space a relaxed, slightly nostalgic feel that sets it apart from many other cafés in the neighbourhood.
