Mort Subite é um nome estranho para um delicioso café do século 19. Mas "Mort Subite" é uma famosa cerveja da Bruxelas (actualmente detida pela Cervejaria Scottish & Newcastle) e também é o nome de um jogo de dados do século 19 jogado por trabalhadores locais durante a sua hora de almoço. O interior manteve-se inalterado, pelo menos aparentemente, o pessoal também. Longas bancadas de madeira, tectos altos e uma série de espelhos dão o charme da cafeteria. A clientela é bastante heterogênea, se-servem petiscos básicos, e os preços são razoáveis.
O pianista de jazz Stan Brenners abriu este lindo bar na década de 1940 e na década de 1980, um grupo de jovens renovaram e reabriram o local, transformando-o numa balada imperdível de Bruxelas. Fique no bar ou atrás do piano se quiser ousar. Geralmente há jazz ao vivo aos domingos às 5h e aos sábados ocorre o "Le Jazz après shopping" (jazz após às compras), do qual se-pode desfrutar gratuitamente. Os proprietários oferecem excelentes vinhos e coquetéis fabulosos.
