  7. Rank 7. BelRoy's Bijou

    Cocktail Bar

    Cocktail glasses chilled to -25°C before anything goes in them tells you where this Antwerp bar's head is at. BelRoy's Bijou distills its own spirits and bottles its own cocktails, so the house pour here is the house, full stop. Tapas come out to keep things going, but drinking is the point. It's a stylish room that takes the glass seriously without taking itself too seriously, which in a cocktail bar is harder than it sounds.

  8. Rank 7. Dogma Cocktails

    Cocktail Bar

    Dogma calls its menu "dandy drinks," which turns out to be accurate rather than just cute. It's a cocktail bar on a quiet Antwerp side street that treats the classics as starting points, nudging a Negroni sideways with Amer Picon and building from there. Fresh oysters and a cheese-and-charcuterie board give you a reason to stay past the second round. The 50 gave it a Discovery nod, and the crowd seems quietly pleased with itself for having found it.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
