The Jane Antwerp

The Jane sits on Limastraat 5, far from the central congestion surrounding the Grote Markt. A twenty-minute walk from the historic city core, the building houses an operation that holds two Michelin stars. It is an international, modern space that leans into a smart and elegant register, which contrasts with the casual bistros found along the Meir.

The restaurant rewards those seeking culinary precision over proximity to the usual tourist landmarks. While visitors often gravitate toward the Rubenshuis for the convenience of the centre, the trip to this part of town is the point. Holding no. 35 on The World’s 50 Best Restaurants and no. 58 on La Liste, the kitchen prioritizes technique that the crowded city-centre spots do not attempt. You go here for the scale of the ambitions, not for a quick bite between sightseeing stops.
