At Opera Antwerp, you can enjoy food and drinks at various levels. The Foyer (level 2) is open before the performance, during the intermission, and up to one hour after the show. Bar Cour (takeaway bar, level 2), Bar Jardin (level 4), and the Blue Bar (level 5) are open during intermissions. In the Foyer, we serve drinks and feature our Smaakbar, where you can enjoy light bites and a featured drink. Bar Cour is our takeaway bar: if you order your drink in advance, you can pick it up during the intermission.

Make your night out a success, both culturally and culinarily. OBV and Brasserie Hulstkamp (Keyserlei) have joined forces to offer guests a carefree evening. Show your OBV ticket and receive a culinary treat. Mention when reserving that you have a ticket for a performance at OBV so the chefs can ensure a timely departure. Reservations via phone: 03 887 73 33. It's a 5-minute walk from Brasserie Hulstkamp to Opera Antwerpen.

During performances, the Foyer and the Redoute Hall are open. You can enjoy a drink and a light bite there, along with a featured suggestion. Both spaces are open before the show, during intermission, and up to one hour after the performance. If you order your drink in advance at the entrance hall, you can pick it up during the intermission in the Lully Hall, where you'll also find the Friends Bar.

Avoid the queue during intermission by ordering and paying for your drinks in advance at Bar Cour (level 2, Antwerp) or at the entrance hall (Ghent). You can then collect your drinks during the intermission at Bar Cour in Antwerp or in the Lully Hall in Ghent.
