Why Liège cannot be overlooked according to Morgane & Salomé
Top 5 Liège spots for a party drink
Grab your diaries and make room to share an aperitif with colleagues, friends and family at some of Liege's worthwhile spots.
Famous for its festive atmosphere, Liège does not limit itself to the evenings in the Carré: every reason is good to party, and the aperitif hour is certainly no exception to the rule. But where to go to make the most of it? It all depends on the atmosphere you're looking for and the company you're sharing it with. With colleagues. Opened in the summer of 2022 in the Guillemins district, Yust is more than a hotel, it's a gathering place, designed to multiply the possible configurations.
With colleagues.
It's the perfect place to hold a meeting in one of its dedicated spaces before moving on to the bar area, which is as cozy as it is trendy, with its industrial-inspired decor. Inventive cocktails and a sharp selection of wines are accompanied by nibbles to share, between smoked almonds, houmous with basil and chicken wings, also available in a vegetarian version with cauliflower and sesame. Cosy and trendy, we tell you. Esplanade Simone Veil 2, 4000 Liège / yust.com Lien embed :

With friends.
There is something of Rome or Milan in this intoxicating address with a decor as meticulous as the menu. And the music selection is not to be outdone, which makes it the perfect spot for a festive aperitif with friends, between surprising drinks and an intoxicating atmosphere. Patatina with cacio e pepe sauce, burrata and kale chips or tomato pickles are just a few of the delights that alternate on the menu, where the negroni reigns supreme and promises to be as exquisite as in Italy.

With the family.
Is it because it was opened by three sisters who love good wine that Vinicurien is an address where you want to invite your family? Maybe, but probably also because the soft velvet armchairs and the cosy atmosphere invite you to drink comfortably with the people you love most in the world. From your grandmother to your teenage cousin, everyone will find something to their liking on the menu, starting with the gourmets: Asian beef tartar, corn hummus or sardine rillettes with apples - it's a promise.

For lovers.
Whether your relationship is still in its infancy or has been going on for a long time, Volga is the perfect address for a tête-à-tête, with a menu that leaves room for everything from softs to craft beers to the elaborate cocktails that have made the place famous. If it is occasionally transformed into an ephemeral restaurant with remarkable menus, the rest of the time, you can enjoy a solid selection of platters to make the meeting last longer than a drink.

With customers.
Do you want to impress guests visiting Liege, but also manage to chat with them without having to cover the hubbub of the music? Head for Pinart, a bistro just like in Paris, where a handpicked wine list is accompanied by the delicious dishes created by Laurent, former chef of Bout de Gras and epicurean before the times.

And to enjoy a festive atmosphere, we warmly recommend the Brutal bar and its jungle decor next to Moment, as well as Bitter, the clandestine bar opened at Maccheroni by Morgane and Emeric, two former members of the restaurant's team, masterfully run by Jonathan and Marie Servais. Long live the party!
