A premium bakery of the international Le Pain Quotidiain chain. It's not always easy to find free seats, but when you do it's a wonderfully relaxing place to go for breakfast or brunch, or just to get a nice muffin or other sweets.

Perhaps the most iconic neighborhood of Leuven. The old beguinage is now inhabited by students and university staff. It is more than worth a stroll and you can conclude your visit with a bite or drink in the beautiful Begijnhof Hotel.
