Another Brick

Top choice in Taipei


This laid-back, funky Belgian-run bar has a good stock of Belgian craft beer. Usually more mellow in the early evening, when you can snag a happy-hour bevvie (until 9pm), it tends to get jammed later on. There's cosy, shadowy seating and Instagrammable decorations such as a fish tank in a retro TV and a wall of LP covers.
