“Belgian Brown Cafes” @ Viane (Geraadsbergen) - Belgium is renowned for its numerous “Brown Cafes”. These are local cafes that are invariably set in a brown (wood) decor Be it the coffee tables, the bar itself (yes, they all sell alcohol as the need arises). Everything just resonates a heavy wooden feel. There is usually at least two Brown Cafes in most local suburbs or villages dotted all over Flanders.
The Brown Cafe shown here is in the village of Viane near the Mur of Geraadsbergen and in true cycling mad Belgian style it has a cycling theme (some would call it an obsession ! ! not a theme). This cafe has everything …
