Solid local wine bar with rotating selections
13 Degrés is exactly the kind of unpretentious wine bar you hope to find when exploring Etterbeek. Located right on Place Jourdan, it’s easy to stumble upon, but hard to forget once you’ve had a glass of their weekly featured wine. The staff clearly know their stuff and are happy to guide you through their international selection without making you feel like you need a sommelier degree to order.
The cheese and charcuterie boards are solid—nothing fancy, but well-curated and fresh. It’s not a place for late-night revelry; they close at 1 AM and it’s cash-only, which adds to the old-school charm. If you’re looking for a quiet spot to unwind with a good glass of wine and some company, this is it.
