The Delirium Cafe
n our 18th century basement, in the heart of the "Free town": the "Ilot Sacre", and only a 100 meters away from the "Grande Place" you'll find the "Delirium Cafe". A decoration full of old enamelled ad-panels, posters from the past time and colourful light-ads will duck you behind a world of beers and Gins. De big wooden barrels invite you to taste our different drinks: Belgian and foreign beers, on bottle or of the barrel. Old gins, fruit gins or even with chocolate taste. There is also a wide choice of whisky's, vodka's, tequila's etc..., enough to let you dream of pink elephants and bring you into the pleasant, gentle flush of the "Delirium Cafe".
A la Mort Subite
We need to go back in time for 80 years to explore the origin of this unusual name. About 1910 Mr. Theopile Vossen ran an establishment called "LA COUR ROYALE". Amongst his many customers were a lot of employees working at the National Bank of Belgium. Those employees passed their time in the pub playing a dives game called "421". Before returning to the office , the employees played a quick last game and the one who lost was called the: "MORT SUBITE" or the sudden death. Very soon this name became well known and when Theopile Vossen moved to this actual address in 1928 he decided to call his pub: "AT THE MORT SUBITE". The same name as his own beers.
