The best restaurants and cafés to be outside on a covered terrace in Brussels

We were all looking forward to being able to eat outside with friends after so many months of lockdown… Yet today, finding those restaurants isn't easy. We've already written two articles: the best restaurants for outdoor dining in Brussels and our favorite restaurants with a terrace.
However, we hadn't yet mentioned restaurants with covered terraces . Ideal in case of rain, you can continue to eat outside while waiting for the government to allow you to return to indoor dining (June 9, 2021). These terraces are also sometimes heated. Perfect if it suddenly gets chilly.
